Retiring items on the Last Chance list & info on discontinued items & price changes


Today I'm sharing lots of information on the upcoming Annual Catalog plus the retiring items.  

The new Annual Catalog goes live on May 1st. The current Annual & Spring Catalogs retire April 30th. 

These retiring items are now while supplies last. Some items are discounted but the discounts do not start until April 9th.   

However I wanted you to have the list beforehand because some of these products will already be gone once the list goes live.  So now is your chance to get the items on your 'gotta have it' list.  

Click here for the Annual Catalog last chance list PDF. Here's the Annual Catalog list in Excel format

Click here  for the Spring Catalog last chance list PDF. 

I thought I'd mention a few items from the Annual catalog that I am surprised are retiring & will dearly miss:

  • Vanilla Envelopes & Vanilla Thick card stock
  • Vellum card stock
  • Double Oval punch – a big favorite!
  • Basic Border dies
  • Scalloped Contour dies

Please remember to grab any of the In Color items that are retiring. This set of colors was a favorite of many. These could run out of stock at any time. 

We all dislike seeing price increases.  But like everything else these days some prices are going up in the new Annual Catalog. Costs are rising everywhere and Stampin' Up! has to raise there's to stay solvent. There are many companies that are struggling or closing and I'm happy to say that SU is still in good shape and in no danger of closing. I'm so glad they are proactive! 

Below is a list of items where prices are increasing.  I tell you this now so you can stock up while the prices are lower.  Remember to use the host code links below when ordering.

  • Bamboo Beauty with unique backgrounds & video tutorial


    The Bamboo Beauty stamp set caught my eye right away.  I knew it would be perfect for unique background techniques. click here to see it.  

    I featured it in this week's Facebook Live.  See it here on my FB page or here on YouTube.  Or scroll down to watch it right here. 

    What do you think?  I know some people aren't into bamboo or this Asian style but it's so my style!  I call this type of set a 'scene builder' which inspires me to use techniques to create unique backgrounds.  

    I'm focusing on this card today.  The colors are Misty Moonlight, Black & White with a touch of purple.  I used Fresh Freesia on the upper left card and Highland Heather on the right. I used our Blending Brushes for the background, black twine from the Essentials pack and a greeting label from the Messages die. 

    Here's the video; click on the image below to watch it. 

    I'll share details on the other bamboo card soon. *See details on the yellow card here.
