Beveled Window Panes - Clearly for You

These beautiful Beveled Window Panes add so much to your card project and I'm so sad to see them on the Stampin' Up! Retiring Accessories list! This card also uses the soon to be retired Clearly for You stamp set. Remember, the retiring stamp sets are available until May 30th, but retiring accessories are only available while supplies last.

 This card uses a few items that are retiring and a lot of my favorite accessories, including the Mocha Morning Specialty Designer Series Paper (retiring) at the bottom of the card. I just love the metallic prints with the Soft Suede and beautiful prints. Soft Suede Taffeta Ribbon (not retiring) is used here to wrap the Window Pane (retiring) and the mini safety pins from Vintage Trinkets (not retiring) are some of my favorite accessories!


For the main element on this card, I stamped the raspberries image from Clearly for You in Whisper White Craft ink onto Bravo Burgundy cardstock. This is embossed with White Embossing Powder. I wanted a more vintage look and the white was just so stark and, well, WHITE, so I used a Sponge Dauber and rubbed around and over the embossed image with Soft Suede Classic ink. This gave the image dimension with the shadow it created and also stained the White Embossing Powder to a vintage color. This piece is cut to fit inside the Embossed Frame from the Designer Frames Textured Embossing Folder.
Recipe:
Stamps: Clearly for You, Tiny Tags, En Francais
Cardstock: Not Quite Navy, Bravo Burgundy, Soft Suede, Very Vanilla, Mocha Morning Specialty DSP
Ink: Whisper White Craft, Soft Suede, Crumb Cake, Not Quite Navy
Accessories: Beveled Window Panes, Tasteful Trim Big Shot Die, Designer Frames Textured Embossing Folder, Vintage Trinkets, Soft Suede Taffeta Ribbon, Cutter Kit

Going Going Gone - Accessories List

The Retiring Accessories List from Stampin' Up! is released and there are a LOT of items on this list! The accessories are only available until May 30th OR while supplies last and some items are on sale from 25% - 60% off. Not included on this list, but still retiring is the Decor Elements line as well.

Hundreds of stamps and accessories from the 2011-2012 catalogs are retiring, and this is your chance to get them before they're gone. Many products are only available while supplies last, so be sure to get your orders in early!
Click on the SHOP NOW button below to place your order online, or send me an e-mail to place your order with me. I'm placing an order this week and many items will sell out before May 30th, so don't delay!

Starting June 1, our Classic Stampin’ Pads will be updated with a new firm-foam pad that offers better ink coverage and, in turn, better stamped images. There seems to be some concern about all of our Classic Stampin’ Pads being on the retired lists. Not to worry! Our core colors are not retiring; we are just updating and improving the pads themselves.

Mocha Morning - Trinket Keys

Here is another card using the beautiful Mocha Morning Specialty Designers Series Paper that is retiring. One of the pieces is a Black Flocked pattern on the Crumb Cake background - lots of texture! The other is a metallic print with Soft Suede. Also, the Trinket Keys on this card are not only retiring, they are discounted 25% while they last! The Trinket Keys come with jump rings and lobster clasps, so they can be used as an embellishment on the card and later removed for a charm on a necklace or bracelet. The Simply Adorned line of chains and charms are retiring as well, and are 25-40% off right now!

I stamped the flourish image from Elements of Style stamp set in Basic Black Craft ink onto Very Vanilla cardstock. Then I Heat Embossed it with Iridescent Ice Embossing Powder to give it beautiful dimension and a great sparkle. The FRIEND stamp is from the You're a Gem stamp set which is retiring as well. This is one of my favorite single word sentiment sets! The Crumb Cake Seam Binding is ruffled and used as an anchor for the Trinket Keys charm to dangle.

Rolodex Birthday Calendars - Class


These Rolodex Birthday Calendars have been so popular and are such a great gift! They have a front cover and then 12 month dividers with blank cards in between to write birthdays and anniversaries. I like to include the address on each card, too - then it's handy for sending cards on time (haha!) I just made a few this week for a customer who is gifting them at bridal showers next month - how cool is that?!

I love making them in the Brights color family from Stampin' Up! - it just seems right for the Birthday theme. But sometimes you just want a different color theme. Here's another striking color combination - Cherry Cobbler, Basic Black and just a bit of Daffodil Delight.
