Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend. I have to go into work in the office today for the end of the month.

Today is the last day to sign up for my 2023-2024 Annual Catalog Paper Shares. I’m closing it up at 5:00pm ET tonight so I can get my counts together to place my order first thing Tuesday morning. Here’s all the information on my shares.

2023-2024 Annual Catalog Designer Series Paper Share

Do you want all of the gorgeous new designer papers in the Stampin’ Up! 2023-2024 Annual Catalog but can’t afford everything?  I’m doing a Designer Series Paper Share! What is a Paper Share you ask? It’s a sample of each of the new Designer Series Papers from the Stampin’ Up! 2023-2024 Annual Catalog.  If you were to purchase all of the DSP in the new Annual Catalog, it would cost you over $320.00 plus shipping.

New Designer Series Paper Share – $70.00 plus $8.50 for Priority Mail Shipping

I’m offering a Designer Series Paper share from the Stampin’ Up! 2023-2024 Annual Catalog and I’d love to have you join!!  I’m placing my share order early on May 2 and I’m going to use the expedited shipping option so I should be able to have the shares cut, bundled and back out to you during the week of May 8.

How my shares work:  I order full packs of all of the Designer Series Papers listed below, I cut them into 6″ x 6″ pieces (or 6″ x 12″ pieces for double shares) and give you one panel of each design from each pack on the list.  I pack up the paper in a cellophane bag and mail it back out to you just as quickly as I can!  Shares give you a good working sample of all of the papers so that you can decide which ones to order in full packs!

Here are the Designer Series Paper Shares that I am offering from the new Annual Catalog!

New Designer Series Paper Share – $70.00 plus $8.50 for Priority Mail shipping

You will receive one 6×6 sheet of each design from the following DSP packs (the number after the name indicates how many 6×6 sheets of that paper pack you will receive):

Double DSP Share – $140 + $8.50 Shipping by Priority Mail – if you’d like double shares of the designer paper, I’m offering those too!  I’ll cut the 12″ x 12″ designer paper sheets into 6″ × 12″ so that you’ll be able to get 3 full A2 size card fronts from each sheet and you’ll get double sheets of the 6″ x 6″ since they’re already precut.

FREE Gift From Me! – As a bonus for joining my share, you’ll get a sampling of the new 2023-2025 In-Color Treat Bags!

Price Changes Coming With The 2023-2024 Annual Catalog

Stampin’ Up! let us know that some of the items in the new catalog will have higher prices when the catalog is launched on May 2.  The prices for all items that are carrying over will continue to be the current catalog prices through May 1.  So now is a great time to stock up on any favorites before the price increases happen in early May!  We have not been told any specifics on the amount that the prices will increase but we have been given a list of items that will increase in price with the new catalog.

Due to increased costs to produce these items, beginning May 2 new prices will be in effect within the following product categories:

• Cardstock

• Specialty Paper
• Notecards and Envelopes
• Classic Stampin’ Ink Pads and Refills
• Stampin’ Blends

To see the updated pricing, check the new 2023–2024 Annual Catalog.  I’ll be mailing out the catalogs in mid-April to my ordering customers so take a peek when it arrives in your mailbox.  So, the good news is that you will have time to order any last-minute items before the new pricing starts once you see the upcoming catalog!
