Before we celebrate the release of the new Stampin’ Up! catalog next month, we want to take time to say goodbye to our favorite retiring products. This month we are showcasing projects that feature stamps and accessories that are retiring along with the Stampin’ Up! 2013-14 Annual Catalog. Check out my 1 Minute to WOW! Video Tutorial featuring the card above here.
If you love this polaroid frame card, check out another card idea here and a 1 Minute to WOW! Video Tutorial here.
I chose four retiring products (all still available as of 5/13) for my project today. They include Happy Day Clear-Mount Stamp Set, Summer Starfruit 8.5 x 11 Cardstock, 2012-2014 In Color Designer Series Paper Stack and Blossom Party Originals Die.
STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:
- The Stampin’ Up! Square Framelits (I used the 4th smallest) are perfect for creating a “Polaroid” frame.
- These pretty flowers sing “summer” to me. They were created with the Blossom Party Originals Die.
- I inked the sentiment “sweet, sweet moments” from Happy Day in Early Espresso and layered it over the Summer Starfruit polka dot pattern (2012-2014 In Color Designer Series Paper Stack). A Stamp-A-Ma-Jig assisted me in getting precise placement.
- The finishing touch is an envelope liner (Envelope Liner Framelits Dies) in a coordinating Summer Starfruit chevron pattern from the 2012-2014 In Color Designer Series Paper Stack.

I think youll like the new In Color Hello, Honey, Michelle. Its truly beautiful and warmer (more golden) than Summer Starfruit!
