Celebrate You Card

An eye catching element for this celebrate you card!

A “celebrate you card” is a perfect one to have in your card stash – because it can cover so many occasions – or non-occasions! This one has an eye catching design element that is easy – and an efficient way to use your patterned papers!

celebrate you card

It’s apparently spring here (*cough*)….so I thought this was a good floral-spring themed celebrate you card to share! The patterned paper is from the Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper which has four times the sheets that are in the typical DSP packages. I die cut the paper with one of the Patchwork Pieces Dies, and then used half of the die cut on this card – meaning I can use the other half on another card! The sentiment is from the Sentimental Park Stamp Set and the label and flowers from the coordinating Sentimental Park Dies.

This is the time of year when we start getting ready to say goodbye to products from the 2023-2024 Annual Catalogue and the January-April 2024 Mini Catalogue. Happily, the Sentimental Park stamp set and dies will be around for another year….but the Patchwork Pieces Dies and Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper will be retiring at the end of the month, so are available only while supplies last/end of April – whichever comes first. Starting 9 April (next Tuesday), the Last Chance Sale starts – and the Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper will be half price! So you may want to take your chances and wait until 9 April to get all that paper for less…. HOWEVER…

One thing I would encourage you NOT to wait too long on is stocking up on the 2022-2024 In Colors! Retiring In Colors are always the first products to sell out at the end of the catalogue year. A number of the In Color combo packs (like the paper collection) will be on sale, but for the individual colours, it seems like only the Stampin’ Blends and ribbons will be discounted. You can always refer to this previous YamStamps post that has the Last Chance Lists for the Annual Catalogue and the Mini Catalogue. So if you love Sweet Sorbet, Parakeet Party, Tahitian Tide, Starry Sky or Orchid Oasis, don’t wait too long to stock up because you might miss out! Shortcut to online shopping 24/7 for Stampin’ Up! Canada products with me is YamStamps.com/shop – if you’d like to pay by etransfer or would like assistance placing your order, you can message me!

Retiring Lists April 2024

Stampin’ Up! has released the retiring lists for April 2024!

Happy first day of spring! So of course, around here it’s cold and snowy/rainy….because last week it was in the double digits for temperature… Anyway – here are the Retiring Lists for April 2024 – separate lists for the Annual Catalogue and the January-April 2024 Mini Catalogue. There is a “last chance” sale happening IN APRIL for the Mini Catalogue- starting on the 9th. Strategy: mark your list with the items you want to grab before they retire…. if they are going on sale – shop on 9 April. If they aren’t, shop now in the YamStamps Online Stampin’ Up! Canada storehttps://yamstamps.com/shop is the shortcut! All items are available while supplies last! Also: PDF versions tend to have super small print…

Three Things I’m Going to Miss…

Retirement is part of life, and it’s a regular occurrence at Stampin’ Up!

These are three things I’m going to miss from the January-June 2022 Mini Catalogue when it finishes on 30 June…

  1. Rainbow of Happiness Stamp Set and Brilliant Rainbow Dies (Bundle)

Rainbow of Happiness Bundle

I love rainbows, and this bundle has made me happy! ONE THING – if you love this bundle as well, and would like these products before they retire, PURCHASE THEM SEPARATELY right now. The Brilliant Rainbow Dies are 50% off as part of the Last Chance Sale. Add them to your cart, and then add the Rainbow of Happiness Stamp Set. Cheaper than the discounted bundle!

OK – second thing on the Three Things I’m Going to Miss list…

2. Abstract Beauty Designer Series Paper

I don’t think you can ever go wrong having a stash of randomly patterned paper in your craft room – great for backgrounds on cards or scrapbook pages, and the variety of patterns you get in this package covers a whole lot of potential card making! Plus it’s got a great combination of bright and cheery and monochromatic colours and there’s some cute ephemera and coordinating cards and envelopes to go with it!

Last but not least on the Three Things I’m Going to Miss list…

3. Supple Shimmer Specialty Paper

Well, duh. It’s shiny. LOL (plus it’s currently on sale).

Did anything on my Three Things I’m Going To Miss list cross with yours? Don’t forget that all retiring product is available until 30 June 2022 or until supply is exhausted – whichever comes first – so don’t miss out!
