I know that you all have been flooded from everyones blogs with the Retiring List and I also know that many of you are saying YIKES – there is 10 pages of products! YEP, that’s right and YEP, this happens every year.
Make sure that you look down on this post because I will be offering a DSP Stack Share and if you want in….you need to act fast because I have no idea how long they will be available! 😀
I know that many of you are sad, confused, perhaps saying – “I just can’t take it all in there is so much” – well, I get it and after I type this for you to read today, I am going to sit down with my catalog and highlight all of the “walking the plank” items and then take a look at what I want to stock up on 😀
Like I said, I am sitting down myself to see what these 10 pages look like but I want to remind you…that when you see the BUNDLES list….remember, there are many that ARE carrying over to the NEW CATALOG but they will not be at the BUNDLED PRICE….so the moral of the story is…snatch the Bundles now to get the 10% off.
This is what I am the most sad about….seriously – this is my “lower lip down” product that I will be missing…as I use it so often…there are my go-to’s when I need the “certain color”...they are just a great classic! We are NOT having a color refresh so all of these colors are current in the NEW CATALOG.
Because of this – I WILL OFFER A PRODUCT SHARE ON THESE…..and sadly this will be the last time as they are not in the New Catalog. Whenever I offer this share, it is always popular…..so I would hop on it as this is a great way to get a taste without breaking the bank.
If you want to take part in this share, please email me and put in the subject line – DSP STACK PRODUCT SHARE so I can spot it. Please email me ASAP if you want in this share as all of these retired products are while supplies last. Once a share fills, I will email you a Pay Pal invoice.
The share will include 1/2 sheet of each color in the collections for $25.00 and then the shipping is a flat $6.95 (the cost of a Priority Mail legal envelope) = $31.95 The collections that I am doing are the following : You will get (90) half sheets of beautiful DSP paper and all of the colors will be carried over through the next catalog.
- Brights
- Regals
- Subtles
- Neutrals
- In Color 2016 – 2018 (Only this In Color)
You all know I love Jack Russell’s and this little guy is sprinting as fast as he can….and I know you all are doing the same thing with this retired list and then I invite you to see the next picture….JUST BREATHE…..
Very different messages but I hope that you can find the balance. Yes, the Stampin’ Up! website was ON OVER LOAD….be patient and know that we are all in the same boat. You all are going to love the NEW Catalog, it was a treat to be able to see it and I look forward to some “me time” to REALLY sit and take it in!
Enjoy the day….it is going to be a GREAT day and tomorrow….it’s a PALS BLOG HOP DAY…and we all know THAT will be a FUN DAY of sheer INSPIRATIONS! Hang in there…and have FUN shopping away!
I’m shocked by the no DSP colored papers! Those are mainstays! Other than that I laugh that as a customer I never paid attention to the retiring list. I either got what I wanted or I didn’t and if I didn’t it must not have been that high on my wish list. So far, as a demo I’ve haven’t looked either but I will probably have to print the list for my 3 customers.
Love those Shares ! It gives me some of all the color choices . I have snipped a small piece of a color just to balance
a layout . I am still thinking SU has gone COO -COO retiring these great series !! I thought it was a color refresh ! WRONG !
I did get a small order in late yesterday . Some good sale prices !
I went through the ten pages with my catty right on the keyboard. I am looking forward to the new catalog and I’m trying to keep this order on the lower side. Notice, I didn’t say I wasn’t going to order. I think it is time for me to decide what to do with all my retired stamp sets, as I have never gotten rid of one set.
Have a great day!

I didn’t even go through the list with the catalog last night. Today I have been busy. I agree with Sonny – they must be crazy retiring the DSP designer stack. Maybe I should get off the computer and check out the retired list.
Did sweet Milo recover from his wounds and his band-aides?
I, too, am sorry to see the DSP packs retire. Your paper stacks are prefect with a sampling of all the colors and those classic designs has something for everyone. I haven’t analyzed the retiring lists, but I’ve heard the crumb cake notecards are walking the plank to be replaced with Very Vanilla ones. Why couldn’t they just have the three colors: white, crumb cake and vanilla??? I love the notecards because they are the perfect size for so many cards, have a nice feel and quality envelopes. But I’ll adjust and life goes on.
