Stampin’ Up! has announced that Stampin’ Write Markers and Cling Stamps (Red Rubber) are going to be available on the LAST CHANCE LIST while supplies last! This decision for the Cling Stamps is based on “raw materials becoming increasingly difficult to source, with some no longer being manufactured at all.” Going forward all stamp sets will be produced in the photopolymer (clear) material. The option for Stampin’ Write Markers is to use or switch to the Stampin’ Blends that are available in same colors as the Markers.

Part of the transition away from Cling Stamps is to introduce new and improved Stamps and Dies packaging! This new packaging will allow for better accommodation of the photopolymer stamps as they are thinner and will save storage space in the average craft room.  Check out the photos below to get a sneak peek at the new packaging for both Stamp and Die storage (note the change for Die storage will also include printed artwork on the packaging). Contact me directly for more information or if you have questions. Happy Crafting!

This accordion pop-out card is one of my favorite fun-folds, inspired by Lisa Curcio, and is an easy lay-out to make. It’s made from products on the Last Chance List (LCL) for 2025 and my favorite retiring In Color, Boho Blue! It was difficult selecting the Designer Series Paperâ„¢ – it was a toss up between the 2023-2025 In Color (6×6) and the Countryside Inn (12×12 – to use. Both of my favorites and on the LCL!

 

The images and and die cuts are also from retired or retiring products for this season. I used the Country Flowers and Country Birdhouse bundles and coordinated the colors with that DSP as mentioned earlier. The cardstock layers are Boho Blue (it sold out early) and the Neutrals DSP. This was a fun one to make and I am really going to miss this bundle and the cardstock paper!
