Last Chance Products April 2024

They are here! The lists of Last Chance Products retiring from both the Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog and the Spring Mini (Jan – April 2024 Mini Catalog) are here! It’s a shame to see some favorites go, but there are always new products on the horizon!

From April 9-30, you can stock up on your favorite products and save up to 60% on essential craft supplies! NOT ALL PRODUCTS WILL BE DISCOUNTED! A selection of Last Chance Products will only be available while supplies last.

Put on your reading glasses or zoom in to read these lists. The print is always tiny.

March 18 on Calendar

It’s That Time Again!

It’s impossible to believe we are at this point in the year! Time flies when we are having fun stamping and savoring our Stampin’ Up! catalogs! But it is time for a new Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog (almost!) and the January-April 2024 Mini Catalog (Spring Mini) is getting close to going out. The Stampin’ Up! Annual 2023-2024 Catalog will retire April 30, 2024 and the Spring Mini as well!

That means that Stampin’ Up! will release the Last Chance Lists for both catalogs today at 1:00 PM MT (Stampin’ Up! time!). Demonstrators will be able to view the upcoming Annual Catalog online today also, so the Stampin’ Up! website will be buzzing with excitement!

3:00 PM Eastern Time

2:00 PM Central Time

1:00 PM Mountain Time

Noon Pacific Time

When I get the Last Chance Lists I will post them here. Hang on! Products will be available while supplies last once these lists hit the streets! You can order in the morning if you want to beat the rush and get whatever you’ve got to have before the crowd rushes in!

Stampin’ Up! Sale-A-Bration Ends in Two Weeks!

Sale-A-Bration 2024 Banner

Can you believe Stampin’ Up! Sale-A-Bration is coming to an end only two weeks from today?! It always seems like a long time when it begins and then before we know it, it comes to an end. Fortunately, we still have some time left to make Stampin’ Up! purchases and earn FREE products!

In case you are new, Sale-A-Bration is an annual promotion that Stampin’ Up! has held for many, many years and is a favorite because it involves earning free products! With every $50 purchase, you may earn a free Sale-A-Bration product. There are no limits to how much you can earn. Spending $100, for example, gives you the choice to choose two free products at the $50 Level, but there are additional special choices at the $100 Level if you prefer. Having an order of $150 or more also earns Stampin’ Rewards of 10% more in current Stampin’ Up! products plus Sale-A-Bration.

Here is the main Sale-A-Bration brochure for choosing FREE rewards:

More to Sale-A-Brate New Products Feb 2024

If you like Paper Pumpkin, you might like to consider adding a Paper Pumpkin Prepaid Subscription to your order and earning Sale-A-Bration rewards with that subscription. Even if you are already getting the monthly subscription, you can purchase a prepaid subscription that will override the monthly subscription until it runs out, and then your account will automatically revert to your monthly subscription. You still can skip a month if you need to with a prepaid subscription.

You can add the 1-month Prepaid Subscription to your order to reach $50 or whatever amount you want to reach. If you purchase the 3-month Prepaid Subscription for $69.50 you will earn a free Sale-A-Bration product at the $50 Level. (You will pay the minimum shipping on that amount for the Sale-A-Bration product if that is all you order.) Not only can you earn Sale-A-Bration rewards but you will get a Paper Pumpkin Kit in your mailbox each month!

Another benefit during Sale-A-Bration is the opportunity to JOIN Stampin’ Up! as a Demonstrator and receive an extra bonus!

Flight and Airy You’re Marvelous Card

Flight and Airy You're Marvelous Card

This Flight & Airy You’re Marvelous Card is made with brand new designer paper, and you can earn it for FREE with a $50 purchase during Sale-A-Bration. This Flight & Airy Designer Series Paper is wonderful! It has watercolored birds, foliage, flowers, and washes. These papers will make beautiful cards and projects for spring!

This card has a Basic White card base but instead of leaving a white margin around the layers, I covered the entire card front with designer paper. I started by choosing the sheet of paper with a vertical line of branches and birds. Although you might waste a bit of paper, it was like cutting out the Christmas design with the bears so that you could make a little scene on your card. I chose a section of birds that I liked and cut the strip of paper to include that area. From that full length of paper, I cut the section that I wanted to be on the front of the card. After I worked on the card, I trimmed that piece of designer paper to be just a little bit narrower. It ended up being 3″ x 5 1/2″.

The “other side” of that same paper was a Pecan Pie brown with crisscrossed lines. I liked it and wanted to use it with the birds section. As I played with making the front of the card, I wanted to add another color to brighten up the card a little bit, to bring out the colors of the birds. I chose Daffodil Delight to be just a narrow strip along the side of the designer paper.

I didn’t want to waste a lot of the designer paper, so I cut the brown pattern into two pieces at 3/4″ x 5 1/2″. I adhered those two strips to each side of the card, exactly on the edges, top and bottom. The Daffodil Delight strips, which are 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ were adhered to the sides of the bird paper with just 1/4″ showing. It helps to use Grid Paper to get everything even and straight. Then I adhered that whole section to the front of the card, making sure I had it even top and bottom and with equal amounts of the brown pattern showing on each side.

The greeting is stamped in Pecan Pie ink on Basic White. I diecut it with a Tailor Made Tag Die, but I found it too large for this card. I didn’t want to cover up any of the pretty birds. I ended up trimming that sentiment as narrow as I could, then flagging one end. Then I layered it on a piece of Pecan Pie cardstock and trimmed that as narrow as I could for a layer. Luckily, it fit exactly right on the card without hiding any birds!

You know if I have a new package of embellishments, I must use them! The colors aren’t all perfect matches, but close enough for matching shades of watercolors. I used the Rainbow Adhesive-Backed Dots. These are in the new Spring Mini Catalog on page 33.

Overall this is a pretty basic, easy card for you to make and fantastic when you can get free designer series paper! Plan your orders in January and February in $50 increments so you can take advantage of Sale-A-Bration!
