- The additional cost for expedited shipping is not covered by this promotion.

If you or your customers need an order by Christmas, order as early as possible or consider expedited shipping.
Last Chance Products

I find it helpful to go up to the top of Last Chance Products Category and sort the products from A-Z. Then, they are in alphabetical order. My brain just works better when products are in alphabetical order.
- The Last Chance Products category will include retiring products from the September -December 2024 Mini Catalog and Online Exclusive releases, excluding Paper Pumpkin. When the Annual Catalog retires, you will find the retiring products in the Last Chance Products category of the online store (this won’t happen until the beginning of April).
- Last Chance Products in this category are available while supplies last and will be discontinued when they sell out. Items will be automatically removed from the category and the online store when they are discontinued.
- Discounts vary and are subject to change.
- Stampin’ Up! may add individual items from bundles or suite collections to the Last Chance Products category. If one or more products from the suite collection or bundle are in the Last Chance Products category, then the bundle and suite collection will also appear in this category. The bundle or suite will not be orderable if one or more of the items in the bundle or suite collection sell out. Our standard 10% bundle discounts will be available if one or more of the items move to the Last Chance Product category; however, the item in the Last Chance Products category may have a deeper discount.
- There may be times Stampin’ Up! will need to discontinue certain products outside of this process. This can happen due to factors outside our control, such as overseas shipping issues, disruptions to the supply chain for raw materials, or changes to our suppliers. If a product is discontinued outside the process, it won’t be available in our Last Chance Products category.
- There will no longer be a Clearance Rack, it will be now known as the Last Chance Products page.

I’m not a person who likes coffee, lattes or tea, but I do love a good cup of hot chocolate with lots of whipped cream, especially when I’m watching Hallmark movies. Sometimes I’ll add a Ghirardelli Peppermint Bark Square to my hot chocolate, too! We’re having anything but Fall weather where I live in Southern California, in fact, we’ve had triple digit temperatures this past week. We won’t see any relief until Wednesday (fingers crossed). Anyway, I’m wishing for Fall weather!
For my card today, I used the More Than Autumn Bundle, Take a Bow 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper, Stylish Shapes Dies and Spotlight on Nature Dies. I didn’t realize until I had made my card that I used three different sets of dies. If you only have the Stylish Shapes Dies, there is a circle pretty close to what I used to put my hot chocolate on.


I started with Garden Green cardstock for the base of my card. Then I added a layer of Basic White cardstock with a piece of Take a Bow Designer Series Paper (DSP). Next, I stamped the cup onto Take a Bow DSP using Memento Ink, the whipped cream on to Basic White and I did another cup onto Real Red cardstock, using Memento Ink. I used the More Than Autumn dies to cut the whipped cream but the cups I used my Paper Snips to cut them out (if you use the dies, it will have a rim around it and for this card, you don’t want the rim). I only cut the center part out on the Real Red cardstock.


Next, I added an Adhesive Sheet to the back of my Real Red cardstock and cut the words “Hot Cocoa” out using my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine and the More Than Autumn Dies. I stamped a candy cane onto Basic White cardstock using Real Red ink and cut it out with the More Than Autumn Dies. I also stamped “Nothing’s Better Than” in Real Red ink onto Basic White cardstock and cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. I cut a large circle out of Basic White cardstock using the Spotlight on Nature Dies.
Now on to assembly of the card. I made sure where I wanted everything to go before gluing it down. I adhered the circle to the front of the card. I glued the center of the cup in Real Red cardstock to the cup and then added glue to the lower portion of the whipped cream and adhered it to the cup. Then I added Stampin’ Dimensionals all over the back of the cup and adhered it to the circle. Then I added the candy cane to the center of the cup.


I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the sentiment and adhered it to the top of the card. Then, I peeled off the adhesive sheet on the back of “Hot Cocoa” and adhered it to the front of the card.
To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White to the inside.

Today’s card was made using Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper (on sale this month), the Country Flowers stamp set, Unbounded Love Dies and Purple Fine Shimmer Gems.


I started with a piece of Gorgeous Grape cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I cut a piece of a piece of Highland Heather cardstock. Before gluing it to the front of the card, I cut four pieces of Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper and glued them to the front of the Highland Heather cardstock. Next, I adhered the entire piece to the front of the card.


I stamped my sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using Gorgeous Grape ink and the Country Flowers stamp set. Then, I cut the sentiment out using the Unbounded Love Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the center of the card.


To complete my card, I added a piece of Basic White to the inside of the card and then added five Purple Fine Shimmer Gems to the front of the card. This is a very quick and easy card to make! You can find the measurements I used below the Supply List.

Today I’m sharing a card I made using the Sketched Butterflies Dies, Everyday Details stamp set, Everyday Details Dies, Unbounded Beauty Designer Series Paper, and the Zinnia 3D Embossing Folder.


I started with a piece of Petunia Pop cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I cut two pieces of Basic White cardstock. I adhered one to the inside of the card and the other one I embossed with the Zinnia 3D Embossing Folder and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine and then adhered it to the front of the card.


I used Unbounded Beauty Designer Series Paper (DSP) to cut out my butterflies but first, I added an adhesive sheet to the back of the DSP to make it easy to adhere the butterflies to my card. I then used the Sketched Butterflies Dies to cut the butterflies out. Then, I adhered them to the front of the card.


I stamped my sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using the Everyday Details stamp set in Petunia Pop ink. I cut it out using the Everyday Details Dies, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and placed it on the card.
To complete my card, I added five 2024-2026 In Color Shimmer Gems to each butterfly.
