It’s that time of year when we start to say good bye to items that will be retiring from our current catalogs. The 2019 Occasions Catalog and the 2018-2019 Annual catalogs are both coming to an end. But don’t despair I just saw the new catalog that is coming in June and it has lots of exciting and pretty new things!! Until then let’s make sure you have what you wanted from these current catalogs.
First here are a few notes about Stamp sets and Bundles that are retiring.
- Due to high demand for retiring stamp sets, these items will have guaranteed availability until May 24; all other products are not guaranteed and are available while supplies last only.
- Wood-mounted and Clear-mounted stamp sets – all of these are retiring because we are switching to the new CLING stamps. Some of the actual stamp images are carrying over but they are listed as retiring because our current inventory of wood/clear is what is retiring. You can see this list CARRYOVER CLING of the ones that will continue in the new catalog as CLING.
- Bundles – All bundles are retiring. Bundles offer a 10% savings when they are first introduced in a catalog. But when the components carry over to the next catalog they are offered as individual items and no longer in the savings bundle. Get those now if you want the savings.
And some notes about other retiring items
- 2017-2019 In Colors – Powder Pink, Lemon Lime Twist, Tranquil Tide, Berry Burst, and Fresh Fig – everything with these colors is retiring. Order refills for your ink pads and extra card stock and accessories now.
- Designer Series Paper – all the Designer Series Paper is retiring. We do have lots of pretty new paper coming but if you have something you love get it before it is gone.
- Trimmer & Cutting Blades – the Stampin’ Up! Trimmer is retiring along with the blades. A new solution is coming but I don’t know the time line for that right now. Stampin’ Up! has ordered additional cutting blades based on sales history. These will be available intermittently over the next several months. If they are out of stock you can select to receive an email for when they are back in stock. These will likely sell quickly every time a shipment arrives. Quantities are limited to 6 packs (2 in a pack) when you do order.
Download the excel lists I’ve created of the retiring items from the Occasions catalog and the Annual catalog. The carryover sets that are switching to cling are not included. Stamp sets offered in both wood and clear mount are on the same line. Bundles are not included individually in these lists.

The best place to see what is available is in the online store. As items sell out they will be removed from the online store. I’d be happy to place an order for you but an item might sell out between the time you give me your order and the time I can get it placed. If you have questions please let me know and I’ll do my best to answer them for you.
