Today’s post is a quick update on the Retiring List.

Unfortunately, these products have sold out and are no longer available.
Whole Lot of Lovely Designer Series Paper
Delightful Daisy Designer Series Paper
Fluttering Embossing Folder
Fast Fuse Refills

These items are in low inventory status and it’s hard to know how long they’ll last. They could sell out in a week or sometime today.
Supply List
The Wisteria Wonder stamp pad is currently on the Low Inventory List. Stampin’ Up! has guaranteed that all retiring stamp pads and retiring INDIVIDUAL ink refills will be available until May 7th and then after that date, while supplies last. Even if Wisteria Wonder goes into a backorder status, you will still be able to purchase it until May 7th, but you’ll have to wait until it’s back in stock.

I have a few more cards to share with you today using some of my favorite retiring products.
The sweet Tutti-frutti 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper and the stamp set Fruit Basket are both retiring. I’ve used the sentiments in the stamp set on many of my cards and the paper has such vivid, colorful prints! (The Basketweave embossing folder will return in the new Annual Catalog).

I am really going to miss the Petal Passion Designer Series Paper. I tend to go for lots of color but this paper is one of my favorites. The stamp set Flying Home is a great one if you love to color. Add a bird in a set and I’m sold.

With that being said, I love Bird Banter. This set and Flying Home are definitely staying in my personal collection. The Lemon Lime Twist 3/8″ Mini Striped Ribbon, behind the birds is also on the retiring list.

The stamp set Remarkable You has been around for a few years but sadly, it’s leaving. It comes with three different flowers and a leaf stamp too. It’s another great set if you enjoy coloring.

All stamp sets are guaranteed available until May 25th and then while supplies last. All Designer Series Paper is while supplies last! Whole Lot of Lovely & Delightful Daisy Designer Series Papers have already SOLD OUT, so if you have any favorites, now is the time to place your order!

Today I’m sharing past projects I’ve made that use products currently on the Retiring List!
- Stamp sets are guaranteed until May 25th, 2018 and then while supplies last
- Classic Stamp Pads and Classic Ink Refills are guaranteed until May 7, 2018 and then while supplies last
- Everything else is while supplies last!
This card uses one of my favorite stamp sets, Birthday Blooms. It’s a great set for coloring with Watercolor Pencils or Stampin’ Blends and I really love the sentiments. I’m really, really going to miss the Glitter Enamel Dots!

This card uses two retiring products: Move Me Thinlits and Foil Frenzy Designer Series Paper. The Designer Series Paper is really thick which makes it nice for making boxes.

I’m going to miss the big bold Hello sentiment in the stamp set Hello Friend. The next card also uses this sentiment.


The stamp set Lots of Love makes it so easy to make a quick and easy card that really conveys the fact that you care!

I love butterflies and the next two cards use the Butterflies Thinlits. The sentiment on this first card (the paper retired last year)is from the stamp set Birthday Blooms which is the set I mentioned on the first card.


Butterfly Basics is a great set for coloring! The sentiment I used is also included in the set.

And one more project using the Butterflies Thinlits (the paper has already retired). Another retiring product are the Gold Binder Clips.These are great for closing up a bag when you don’t want anyone to peek inside!

Today’s card is one that I made way back in September but forgot to post! A Little Wild is the perfect stamp set for a spinner card because each animal in the set is two-sided PLUS the stamp set has the coordinating Little Loves Framelits Dies . The stamp set and dies can be purchased separately but if you purchase them together you’ll save 10%, This bundle is on the retirement list! A Little Wild and the Little Loves Framelits Dies are NOT retiring but once the new catalog begins, this bundle will be gone. So, if you love it as much as I do, be sure to pick it up before May 31st and save 10%! In my supply list at the end of the post, I’ll include both the stamp set and dies individually as well as the bundles.
Here’s how to make the card: (more…)

Yesterday the Retiring Lists came out as well as a lot more information about the Color Revamp and the redesign of our ink pads. It was confusing, even to me! So let’s do a quick recap and talk about how it relates to the Retiring Lists. If you have any questions, please contact me!

Retiring Colors
Seventeen current Stampin’ Up! colors are retiring (four are current In Colors). That means that anything related to these products (stamp pads, markers, ink refills, cardstock, embellishments) will be retiring as well. My recommendation is to get what you want as soon as possible although Stampin’ Up! has released some information about availability of these RETIRING products.
- Classic Stamp Pads: Guaranteed stock of old ink pad design through May 7, 2018. After this date, it will be while supplies last.
- Classic Stamp Pad Collections (all of the colors of a family): While supplies last
- Classic Stampin’ Ink Refills: Guaranteed stock until May 7, 2018. After this date, while supplies last.
- Single packages of cardstock: While supplies last
- Cardstock Packs Collections: While supplies last
- Stampin’ Write Markers: While supplies last
- Color Caddy: While supplies last
- Color Embellishments: While supplies last
Archival Inks Retiring
Stampin’ Up! will no longer be carrying Archival Ink so the Basic Black and Basic Gray Archival Inks and Refills are on the the retirement list. If you’re worried about what to use when you watercolor, Staz-On is returning (YAY!!) and it’s perfect for watercoloring while Memento Ink works with our Stampin’ Blends. Basic Gray will return as part of the Classic Stampin’ Ink Family but it won’t be archival.
New Ink Pads
We will have an updated ink pad case in the new catalog. The actual foam of the pad has NOT changed but the formulation of the ink has. A defoamer has been added to the ink which will prevent bubbling, help get an even coating of the ink on the stamp and help the stamped image have a smoother, solid look.
You CAN use the the new ink refills on old stamp pads (the new ink refills and stamp pads will be available on June 1, 2018 when the new catalog goes live)! The only exception is that the Basic Gray Archival ink cannot be used with the Basic Gray Classic Stamp pad. These are two separate inks.
Returning In Colors
Six previous In Colors are returning. Yesterday I left Mossy Meadow out of the lineup but I think it was because I was so excited about Blackberry Bliss and Coastal Cabana coming back! Here are all six:
Mossy Meadow
Poppy Parade
Flirty Flamingo
Coastal Cabana
Mint Macaron
Blackberry Bliss
