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!
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!
