Hi stamping friends. The January–April 2024 Mini Catalog and the 2023–2024 Annual Catalog are retiring soon! It’s bittersweet to say goodbye to any catalog, but I’m looking forward to all the new products on their way—and I hope you are, too!

From April 9–30, you can stock up on your favorite products and save up to 60% on essential craft supplies! You can start to stock up on your favorites now – but the discounted prices will NOT be available until 9 April!! A selection of Last Chance Products will only be available while supplies last.

• There is a retiring list for the mini catalog and annual catalog. These lists detail the products that will no longer be available once the catalogs are gone. 
• Not all items on the Last Chance products List will be discounted.
• All products are available while supplies last, and there are no purchase limits.
• Discounted items can be added to a Starter Kit and redeemed as a 50% off item or with Stampin’ Rewards.
• Only orders opened and closed during the promotion period apply. 
• Stamp sets are not guaranteed during this promotion and are while supplies last.  

PLEASE NOTE!!  Even though the discounts listed don’t take effect until April 9, 2024, it might be a good idea to snag the things you really really want right NOW – rather than waiting for the discounted price, as some items may sell out.   Remember – items on the list are only available while supplies last!!

• Mid April – 2024-2025 Annual Catalogs should be arriving in my customer’s mailboxes
• April 30 – last day to order from the January-April 2024 Mini Catalog and 2023-2024 Annual Catalog

Basics Embossing Powders Sold Out Until Later This Year

Stampin’ Up! posted an update to let us know that the Basics Embossing Powders are sold out and won’t be returning until some time this fall.  Here are the details from the update:

“We are in the process of switching manufacturers for our Basics Embossing Powders (item 155554). When we began this transition, North America selling trends indicated we had enough inventory to last through the end of the 2023–2024 Annual Catalog sales period. Since then, selling trends have shifted. The powders have been very popular, causing us to sell out far faster than anticipated. As much as we appreciate a high-selling item, it does create complications in this instance, as we’re currently out of Basics Embossing Powders in North America. As a result, we are discontinuing item 155554 for our North American market.   

We will re-introduce the Basic Embossing Powders in the upcoming 2024-2025 Annual Catalog, but they’ll be under a different item number.  Unfortunately, we anticipate that the new embossing powders will not arrive until fall. This means there will be some time North American customers can see the powders in our catalog but not be able to purchase them until they arrive. 

We apologize for any complications this transition may create. Thank you for your patience as we eagerly await our new line of powders.”

If you need any stamping supplies, I’d love to be your Demonstrator. Just click HERE to go directly to my online store or drop me an email if you have any questions. 

MY CURRENT HOST CODE IS:   AHZBFDC4

Use this host code when placing an order with me. When you order $50 or greater you will receive a free gift from me! If your order is over $150, please do not use this code, but you’ll still get the free gift. The free gift is your choice of any 1 item valued up to $10.00 from the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog, the January-April 2024 Mini Catalog or from the Online Exclusives!  Unfortunately, packs of cardstock are no longer an option for a free gift. Shipping has become too expensive to ship and it’s costing me as much to ship as the cardstock costs. For any orders $50 or more I will also send you my monthly class tutorials.  Click HERE or go to my Customer Rewards for more details and to see what this month’s tutorials are.

Please remember to use my current Host Code and make sure that you can see my name on the final checkout page listed as your Demonstrator when you order so that you know that you’re ordering with me, and you’ll get my rewards! 

Happy Stamping, Karen

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well.  I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.

Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater.  And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

1. You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly!  OR….
2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.
