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

March 26, 2024

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.

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.

Blending Brush border idea with Artfully Layered; so pretty!

April 18, 2022
I created these pretty cards on last week's FB Live video. I LOVE the colors and style; they're so my style!

Save

I chose to play with the Artfully Layered bundle seen here in colors of Coastal Cabana and Granny Apple Green. Having a lot of 'white space' makes the textures & pretty leaves the clear star of the card.

Save

I used a blending brush to blend the two inks on a piece of White card stock and then cut the leaf die-cut from that.

For the multi-colored border underneath I used the blending brush to add the same colors. I love the effect!

Save

The cross-hatch texture is made with the dies in the bundle. There are two of them in the set that give textures.

Save

I also used the Faux Sea Glass shapes for accents.

Save

The measurements are in the post below but here they are again:
- White card base 5 ½” X 8 ½”
- White 3 ½” X 4 ¾”, sponged layer 3 ¾” X 5”
Save

Click on the photo below to watch the video; it's the first project of three. And be sure to follow me on Facebook here.

Sailboats & Palm Trees featured in today’s card swaps!

April 15, 2022

Today's post are the last of my talented Flowerbug Team swaps for April. Our theme was water, trees or leaves and I've been sharing their cards all week! It's so fun to see everyone's style and actually receive cards from people across the country. I LOVE swapping!

The first card is made by Candy; she is featuring the Paradise Palms bundle seen here. Her colors include Mossy Meadow, Crumb Cake and Black.

Save

That pretty die-cut across and under the greeting is part of the Palm dies in the bundle. She used the Double Oval punch for her greeting.

It's stunning and a perfect 'guy' card! Thank you for sharing your fabulous card with us.

Save

The next card was made by Tammi. She used the Let's Set Sail bundle in the 2022 Jan-June Stampin' Up! catalog. This bundle is returning in the upcoming Annual Catalog in May. I love this punch!

Save

She created her own watercolor background by washing diluted color (Pool Party & Balmy Blue) onto her White CS. She also textured her background with the Tasteful Textile embossing folder. This folder is retiring now and it's on sale too! I'm so sad about it as I think it's a staple. It is a perfect way to add texture without a lot of busyness. See it here; get it while you can!

Wonderful leaves, trees & lighthouse card ideas

April 14, 2022

Today's post features the third post of my talented Flowerbug's Team swap cards. I've been featuring them all week! Our theme was to make a card with trees, leaves or water. It was a fun theme and the cards were gorgeous and unique!

The first card here is made by Jacki. She chose to use the Paradise Palms bundle from the 2022 Jan-June catalog.

Save

She textured her White layer with the Painted Texture embossing folder and added a 2" strip of the Abstract Beauty specialty DSP across the middle. It looks like sparkly water!

~~~

Next is a card made by Brenda using the Artfully Layered bundle seen here. I LOVE her unusual color combo of Pool Party, Basic Gray & Petal Pink!

Save

There are so many wonderful textures & details here! Look closely to find them all; this bundle includes some special dies in it.

~~~

Jonna made this lighthouse card with the Sailing Home stamp set. Unfortunately this stamp set was on the retiring list and is already sold out.

Save

Her colors are Night of Navy, Crumb Cake & White. She used the Stitched Rectangle dies to create a window; popping up the 'frame' with Dimensionals. I love how she wrapped the linen thread around the greeting.

Stop in for the last set of amazing swap cards tomorrow!
