Stampin’ Up! has released the retiring lists of products from the 2018-2019 Annual Catalog and Occasions Catalog. These products are available to purchase at my online store until June 3, or while supplies last. If there are items you really want, I highly encourage purchasing them as soon as possible.
You can download PDF versions of the retiring list for the Annual Catalog HERE and the Occasions Catalog HERE.
To clarify, please understand that the following stamp sets appear as “retiring” Clear mount or Wood mount; however, they will carry over into the new Annual Catalog as Cling Mount only. I know that’s a little confusing, but the bottom line is that they are NOT RETIRING:
Accented Blooms

Stampin’ Up! is in the process of transitioning red rubber stamp sets to Cling Mount in the new Annual Catalog. Therefore, effective immediately, stamp sets offered in clear-mount or wood-mount in the 2018–2019 annual catalog that are carrying over into the 2019–2020 annual catalog will be offered in clear-mount and/or wood-mount until existing inventory has been depleted or until June 4, 2019, whichever comes first. If the inventory is depleted, you will be notified of the automatic switch to cling when placing an order for that stamp set. This means that you may end up purchasing select cling stamp sets (in carryover artwork) before they can be ordered from the new Annual catalog! All carryover red rubber stamp sets will be available in cling only (with the exception of background stamps in North America) beginning June 4, 2019.
Note about the Big Shot and Stampin’ Trimmer:
As you peruse the Annual Catalog retiring list, you’ll notice that it includes both the Stampin’ Trimmer, along with all accessories, as well as the Big Shot Die Cut machine. Stampin’ Up! has decided to retire both products and is in the process of researching and exploring replacement options. New products and suppliers will help it improve control over design and availability! I will keep you informed as I learn more about the upcoming replacement products.
