Welcome to our Stampin Sunday Blog Hop! This month’s theme is “Last Chance” products, because the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog is going into retirement. Some products will carry over to the new, 2022-2023 Annual Catalog, but we will highlight some of those that will only be available as long as supplies last. They are selling quickly, so I hope the ones I’m highlighting are available when my post publishes.

Can you guess which seven products from this gift set are retiring? (They are the first seven items in my Product List below). I was most surprised about the Beautiful Trees Dies, because the coordinating, Beauty Of Friendship Stamp Set, is carrying over. You’ll want these dies!

Window and Tree

I always love windows on cards, and this six-paned frame was cut from Soft Succulent Cardstock. The shutters were cut from In Good Taste Designer Paper, along with those fabulous hinges from Basic Black Cardstock.  The bird is a Beautiful Trees Die, cut from a pink spot on the Flowering Fields Designer Paper.

I layered everything on cardstock for thickness, glued the window flat, adding Mini Dimensionals to the outside edge of the shutters, and to the bird.

The background is Flowering Fields Designer Paper glued to a Soft Succulent card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.

Prior to gluing, I stamped the sentiment in Memento Black Ink. “Your acts of kindness are like a breath of fresh air” is from the Garden Wishes Stamp Set.

The sentiment seemed appropriate, don’t you think, because this open window is letting in fresh air.

The Ombre Gift Bag is just one of five colors in the set. You can read the details about the bags by clicking on the picture in my Product List.

First, I used the largest Stitched With Whimsy Die to give it a fun, stitched border, without cutting a hole in the bag.

Second I used a Beautiful Trees Die to cut a tree from In Good Taste Designer Paper, and another die in the set to cut leaves from an Ombre Gift Bag in Evening Evergreen.

Before gluing the tree and leaves, I added “ground” by stamping Evening Evergreen dots, from the Daffodil Daydreams Stamp Set.

Finally, I stamped “thank you” from the Welcoming Window Stamp Set in Evening Evergreen Ink on an Ombre Gift Bag. I used the Messages Die for cutting, backed it with cardstock, and attached it with a Dimensional.

Thank you for visiting today. Now, click on the names to see more “Last Chance” products.
