The Stampin’ Up! 2021-2022 Annual Catalog is retiring and today at 1:00 PM. (Mountain Time), Stampin’ Up! will release the list of all the products in the catalog that are retiring. Some products will be discounted but everything on the Last Chance List will be available while supplies last.
As soon as I have the list, instead of creating another blog post, I will insert it right here for you to look at so please check back later today. I like to use the list to go through my catalog, page by page, and mark everything that’s retiring but usually the list is very hard to read (extremely small print) but I will post it for those of you who would like to do this as well. I’ll also post a link that will take you directly to my Stampin’ Up! online store to the retiring products section.
Edited to Add:
You can go straight to my Stampin’ Up! Online Store HERE to see all the retiring products!
Access the Last Chance PDF HERE!
The fastest way to see what’s retiring, is to go to my Stampin’ Up! Online Store around 1:00 PM Mountain Time (sometimes they post early) to see which products we’re saying goodbye to and what’s on sale.
12:00 PM Pacific Time
1:00 PM Mountain Time
2:00 PM Central Time
3:00 PM Eastern Time
Please keep this in mind when looking at the Last Chance (retiring) List:
- Many bundles will be retiring but not necessarily the products themselves. For instance, in the last catalog the Celebrate Sunflowers Bundle retired but both the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set and the Sunflowers Dies did not retire. If a current bundle is retiring that you like, but the products are not, grab it now so you can receive the 10% discount.
- Check the last page for a “key” (I won’t see the list until 1:00 so I’m assuming there will be a key). Some products will say they are retiring but they are returning. It’s possible they are being packaged or configured in a different way.
- If you want something, act quickly! Everything will be available while supplies last and I don’t want you to be disappointed that you didn’t get something you really wanted.
- The retiring In Colors products will go fast! They are Misty Moonlight (sigh), Just Jade (another sigh), Cinnamon Cider, Magenta Madness and Bumblebee. You can click each color below for all the products available in that color.
New Annual Catalog Coming Soon
The new Stampin’ Up! 2022-2023 Annual Catalog will be debuting on May 3, 2022. On April 1st, I will be ordering a Stampin’ Up! catalog for all my customers. Once I receive them, I will start packaging them up to mail out. If you aren’t a current customer of mine, simply place an order at my Stampin’ Up! Online Store and I’ll send one to you too!
Demonstrators can preorder from the new catalog on April 1st. If you’d like to order new products early too, and get a discount on top of it, consider purchasing the Starter Kit for $99. You’ll then be able to choose $125 in product. For more information about the Starter Kit, please click here or feel free to contact me.
Important Shipping News
Beginning April 1, 2022, Stampin’ Up! standard shipping and handling charges will change from $6.95 or 10% of your order – whichever is greater – to $7.95 or 11% of your order – whichever is greater. If you choose to expedite your order, those costs will also increase. Stampin’ Up! hasn’t raised these costs in over a decade and in the last two years they have tried several ways to manage shipping costs without raising shipping prices but with these unprecedented times, it was simply necessary. No one, including me, likes to see a price increase but so much has changed in the last several years and everyone is feeling this ripple effect. What I do want to see is that Stampin’ Up! continues to bring us fun new products to craft with!
Pansy Patch Card Sampler
Place a minimum $50 order (before tax/shipping) at my Stampin’ Up! Online Store using this special host code ZWA22QP6 and I’ll send you my Pansy Patch Card Sampler.

Quick announcement before sharing today’s card: The current Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog will be retiring on May 2, 2022. This Wednesday, March 23rd, the Last Chance List will be published and will list all the retiring products from the catalog. Demonstrators will not see the list ahead of time so once I am able to get my hands on it, I’ll post it here on my blog. All retiring items will be available while supplies last.
Each year a new set of In Colors are announced so the 2020-2022 In Color products will all be retiring: cardstock, ink pads, ink refills, Stampin’ Blends, etc. These products usually sell out first so if you have some of these stamp pads or want to purchase any of these colors (don’t forget ink refills) or coordinating products, my recommendation is to do it sooner rather than later. To see the products for each retiring In Color, click the color swatches below.
Today’s card features the What’s Cookin’ Bundle, one of thirteen bundles on sale during the Savings Are In Bloom promotion. This bundle includes the What’s Cookin’ stamp set and the Cookin’ Dies.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock and then added a layer of Balmy Blue Designer Series Paper from the Subtles 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper Pack that was cut out using the Scalloped Contours Dies. I used the Stitched So Sweetly Dies to cut a scalloped rectangle out of Basic White cardstock. I had planned to use the Scalloped Contours Dies for this piece but the rectangle was a little too small. I stamped the sentiment in Balmy Blue ink towards the top of the rectangle and then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
I stamped the measuring cups and bowl in Balmy Blue ink, the rolling pin in Crumb Cake and then used the Cookin’ Dies to cut them out. I used our Silver Foil Specialty Paper to cut out the whisk, again using the Cookin’ Dies. I cut the bowl so I could slip the whisk in and once I adhered it to the card front, you couldn’t tell that it had been cut. I adhered all the pieces to the card front using Multipurpose Glue and then to finish the card, added three Elegant Faceted Gems in white.

Today’s card is all about spring! I used the Pierced Blooms Dies and Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper to create my card today.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock and then added a strip of Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper to the top and bottom of the card front. I cut a larger strip of Basic White cardstock and stamped the sentiment in Gorgeous Grape ink using the stamp set, In Bloom, and then glued it to the card front.
I used the Pierced Blooms Dies to cut two flowers out of Highland Heather cardstock, three leaves out of Old Olive cardstock and two centers (of the flowers) out of Gorgeous Grape cardstock. I used Multipurpose Glue to attach the centers to each flower and then added a small, white, Elegant Faceted Gem. Mini Glue Dots were used to adhere the leaves to the flowers. I adhered one flower to the sentiment piece and added a Stampin’ Dimensional to the other before placing it on the card.
To complete my card, I added three large, white Elegant Faceted Gems to the sentiment piece.
