by Tracy | Apr 4, 2025 | Retiring Products
On Tuesday, many retiring items were announced! I thought I would post cards of the retiring products that are my favorites. You can click on the card to be taken to the original post. If the links don’t work try them again (I check all my links to see if they go to the right product. I had some not take me there and when I clicked it again, it went right to the product).
For this first card, I was late to use the Memorable Blooms stamp set and dies. I’m sorry it is being retired because I loved using it. The stamp set and dies aren’t discounted so your best bet is to get the Memorable Blooms Bundle where you get 10% off.
Here’s two more cards using the Memorable Blooms Bundle. In the first card, the Dashing Designs Embossing Folder is retiring. I love this folder!
On this next card, I used Sale-a-Bration paper that has retired and the Purple Adhesive Backed Sequins have also retired. I recommend using our Purple Fine Shimmer Gems.
For this next card, I used the Wanted to Say Dies, which are retiring. The regular price was $39.00 and the sale prices is $35.10.The other products on the card are not retiring.
For this next card, I used the Countryside Corners Dies which are retiring. They were 28.00 and the sale price is $19.60. The paper I used, 2024-2026 In Color Designer Series Paper is also retiring. It was normally $12.50 and the sale prices is $7.50
This next card also uses the Countryside Corners Dies and the Starstruck Embossing Folder which was available during Sale-a-Bration and is retired. I also used Glossy Dots Assortment which are retiring. They were normally $8.00 and they are on sale for $7.20. I love these Glossy Dots!
Now I’m sharing some embellishments I’m sad to say goodbye to.
These first ones are the 2024-2026 In Color Shimmer Gems. These add sparkle to your cards! The colors are Peach Pie, Petunia Pop, Pretty in Pink, Shy Shamrock and Summer Splash. They were normally $8.50 and the sale price is $7.65.
This next embellishment is called Tinsel Gems Four-Pack. I loved using these gems! They come in Berry Burst, Blueberry Bushel, Lemon Lime Twist and Pretty Peacock. They were normally $8.00 and now on sale for $6.40.
This next embellishment is called Tinsel Gems Three-Pack. The colors are Misty Moonlight, Fresh Freesia and Lost Lagoon. They were normally $7.50 and now are on sale for $6.75.
This next embellishment is called 2024-2026 In Color Resin Dots. The colors are Peach Pie, Petunia Pop, Pretty in Pink, Shy Shamrock and Summer Splash. They are normally $8.00 but the sale price is $6.40.
These are the Glossy Dots Assortment that I mentioned above. The colors are Daffodil Delight, Gorgeous Grape, Melon Mambo and Pool Party. They were normally $8.00 and they are on sale for $7.20.
This next embellishment are the Adhesive-Backed Heart Sequins. They have been out of stock and are now back in. These are not on sale.
These are my favorite Embossing Folders (if you know me, you know I like my embossing folders) that are retiring. This first one is the Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder that I shared earlier. It’s normally $10.00 but the sale price is $9.00.
This next embossing folder is called the Timber 3D Embossing Folder. It was normally $11.00 and is on sale for $5.50.
This next embossing folder is called the Fern 3D Embossing Folder. It is not on sale but it is retiring.
This next embossing folder is the Painted Trees 3D Embossing Folder. It’s a great one for Christmas cards. It’s normally $11.00 and on sale for $9.90.
This next embossing Folder is the Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder. It normally is $10.00 but it’s on sale for $9.00.
This last one is the Cute Crochet 3D Embossing Folder. It’s normally $10.00 and is on sale for $9.00.

by Tracy | Mar 17, 2025 | Happy Birthday Card
I made a birthday card for my uncle using Timeless Plaid Designer Series Paper. I also used the stamp set, With You in Mind, the Countryside Corners Dies and Low Profile Dots.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card. Then, I adhered a piece of Timeless Plaid Designer Series Paper to a piece of Boho Blue cardstock. Boho Blue will be retiring soon, so if you love the color, I’d suggest getting the products now (cardstock, inks, Stampin’ Blends, etc.). Also Copper Clay, Wild Wheat, Moody Mauve and Pebbled Path are also retiring.
I then adhered the Boho Blue/Timeless Plaid DSP panel to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment on Basic White cardstock in Boho Blue ink, then cut it out using the Countryside Corners Dies. I then cut the next largest shape out of Boho Blue cardstock and adhered the sentiment to the front. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the card front.
To complete my card I added three Low Profile Dots to the front of the card.

The card I’m sharing with you today was made using the Memorable Blooms Bundle, Perennial Postage Dies, Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder and Low Profile Dots.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card (you can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List). Then, I cut two pieces of Poppy Parade cardstock and ran them both through the Dashing Designs 3D Embossing Folder. Next, I adhered the bigger one to the front of the card and the smaller piece to the “inside” of the card.
I stamped the flowers onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using the Memorable Blooms stamp set in Memento Ink. I colored the flowers and leaves using Poppy Parade & Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends. Then, I cut the flowers out using the Memorable Blooms Dies, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and set it aside.
I used Basic White cardstock to cut one of the Perennial Postage Dies (the second largest one). Next, I added the sentiment down towards the bottom of the rectangle in Memento Ink using the Memorable Blooms Stamp Set. Then, I added Tear & Tape (or a strong adhesive) to the back (not the part that will hang over) and adhered it to the right side of the card. Next, I added the flowers to the front and then added three Low Profile Dots.

by Tracy | Mar 11, 2025 | Card Sampler
Update: Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators received this update to our Basic White cardstock yesterday afternoon. We knew prices were going to go up, but we didn’t know it would be before the 2025-2026 Annual Catalog goes live. The Basic White cardstock will now be 24 sheets. You can read the update below:
Our 40-sheet Basic White 8-1/2″ X 11″ Cardstock (159276) is either out of stock or will be shortly. To avoid potential disruption, we will activate the 24-sheet Basic White 8-1/2″ X 11″ Cardstock (166780) as soon as possible instead of waiting for its scheduled release with the 2025-2026 Annual Catalog. Please expect the new item number (166780) to be available in the Online Store soon if it isn’t already. Be advised, there may be a small amount of time when both items are listed as unavailable.
Our 40-sheet Very Vanilla 8 ½” x 11” Cardstock (101650) is following a similar pattern and is also forecasted to sell out. When that occurs, we’ll follow the same approach described above and activate the 24-sheet packs of Very Vanilla 8 ½” x 11” Cardstock (166784) as soon as possible. Again, there may be a small window of time where neither item is in stock, but we hope to keep that potential downtime to a minimum.
Thank you for your patience as we make this transition!

Lovely Garden Card Sampler
My Lovely Garden Card Sampler is now available but today is the last day it will be available! When you use the special host code GUCCBTSX and your order is a minimum of $60 (before shipping/tax), I’ll send you two each of three cards. To create this card sampler, I used Lovely Garden Designer Series Paper and the stamp set, Pattern of Friendship.
Here’s What You’ll Receive:
- All the paper and embellishments needed to make six cards. Envelopes will also be provided. For this sampler you only need to provide a stamp set, ink and adhesive (see below for what you’ll need).
- A PDF Tutorial with instructions, pictures, cutting measurements and a complete supply list of all the products used.
- Earn at least one Bradley Point (earn ten Bradley Points and redeem them for free product) when your order is $50 or more.
- If your order is over $150, please do not use the host code or you won’t receive your Stampin’ Rewards. After you place your order, simply email me and let me know that you’d like the Lovely Garden Card Sampler (you only need to do this if your order is over $150). You can send me an email on the sidebar.
All the Other Important Information:
- Your Lovely Garden Card Sampler will be shipped first-class mail approximately March 21, 2025 and will be mailed to the address used on your online order.
- You’ll receive an email when I mail your Card Sampler and the PDF Tutorial will be included in that email.
- When using the Lovely Garden Card Sampler host code to place your order, you will not qualify for other current host code rewards.
- Per Stampin’ Up! policy, card samplers can only be mailed within the United States.
You’ll receive all the materials to make six cards. You’ll quickly have beautiful cards ready to be mailed out to someone special. If you can’t make the cards once they arrive, no worries, each card is labeled in its own clear envelope which makes it easy to come back to later. Once you’ve made all the cards in the Sampler, you’ll be able to easily replicate each card by following the easy to follow directions in the PDF (pictures are included as well).
The special Lovely Garden Card Sampler HOST CODE will close at the end of the day on March 11, 2025, today and after today, the Card Sampler will no longer be available.
Approximate ship date of the Card Sampler is March 21, 2025.
