I am finally back from Atlanta. It was a wonderful weekend with friends, stamping, and pouring over the new 2018-2019 Annual Catalog. I will share more photos shortly. There are a lot of changes coming to the 2018-2019 Annual Catalog - retiring products, ink pad and ink refill changes, the Color ReVamp. I will spread the information over several posts.
Firstly, the Retiring Products List is available! You can see the lists in PDF format and in my online store.

For the quickest way to see which of your favorite products are retiring, check my online store in the Last Chance Product section. My online store may also show if the product status is low. If you don't see a product on the retiring list in my online store, it may already be sold out.
Please review the Retiring Lists carefully. The lists are very long and can be overwhelming. All Bundle pricing retires even if the individual products are not retiring. For example, the Lemon Zest Bundle is retiring, but the Lemon Zest stamp set and the Lemon Builder Punch are not retiring.
All Classic ink pads and ink refills are retiring even if the color itself is not retiring. Stampin' Up! is retiring the current ink pad style and reformulating the ink refills. The molds that make the ink pads are wearing out to point they need to make new molds. So, instead of making new molds of the same ink pad design, Stampin' Up! redesigned the ink pad molds. The ink pad style is changing to a slimmer, easier to open container. There are color name labels in four different languages as well as a label for the inside of the ink pad. The new style of ink pads will fit in the Ink Pad Caddy.
Archival Basic Black Ink Pads and Ink Refills are retiring. Stayz On Ink Pads are returning to replace the Basic Black Ink Pads and Ink Refills. Stayz On is a permanent, alcohol solvent based ink pad that is suitable for water coloring and for use with Stampin' Write Markers. However, if you use it on photopolymer stamps, be sure to clean the stamps after use with Stayz On cleaner and wash them with dish soap. If you love Archival Basic Black ink like I do, I recommend ordering soon to avoid missing out.
There is a Color ReVamp as well. In order to keep up with current trends and to have more variety in the shades of colors they offer, Stampin' Up! is retiring 17 colors (13 colors + 4 In Colors) and adding 16 colors as well as shifting the color collections.
The retiring colors are Always Artichoke, Chocolate Chip, Elegant Eggplant, Island Indigo, Marina Mist, Perfect Plum, Pink Pirouette, Rose Red, Soft Sky, Tangerine Tango, Tempting Turquoise, Wild Wasabi, Wisteria Wonder, Dapper Denim, Emerald Envy, Peekaboo Peach, and Sweet Sugarplum. If you would would to purchase products in the retiring colors, I recommend purchasing them now as they often sell out the quickest, especially ink pads and ink refills.
Classic Stampin' Ink Pads, Classic Stampin' Ink Pad Collections, and Classic Stampin' Ink Refills are guaranteed in stock through May 7th, 2018 and then as supplies last.
Retiring Single Color Cardstock (all sizes and colors), Cardstock Packs, Cardstock Collections, Stampin' Write Markers (all pack sizes), Color Caddy, and Color Embellishments are while supplies last through May 31st, 2018.
I recommend placing your order for any retiring products soon to avoid missing out. I placed my retiring order already.
I will talk more about the new and the returning colors in my next post. It was a lot to take in at OnStage in Atlanta, so I don't want to overwhelm you all at once. Please let me know if you have questions about the retiring lists and retiring products. I am happy to assist!
Thanks for stopping by!
