Retiring Accessories List is Released

Hi there!  Been with the Wed girls so I didn't get a chance to post the Retiring Accessories List that was released earlier today.  Many items are discounted!  Some surprising things made the list - like the Lace Ribbon Border Punch, the Snow Burst Embossing Folder, some punches and Big Shot Dies….I’m just saying.   On the other hand, I’m excited to see what new goodies will appear in the 2012-2013 Annual Catalog!

Here are some of the changes being made:
   Craft Stampin' Pads will now only be available in Black and White.
   A new Firm Foam pad is being introduced in our Classic Stampin' Pads.  The Firm Foam pads offer better ink coverage.

   Only select Stampin' Write Markers will be available individually. (Stampin' Write Markers In-Color collections will continue to be offered)

   12" x 12" Textured Card Stock will no longer be offered.

   12" x 12" Smooth Card Stock will only be available in select individual colors and color collections.

   Any item on the list with an asterisk next to it is being reconfigured.  An example of this could be repackaging, as in the markers example above.

   Craft Ink Pads (other than Black or White per above) and Craft Refills will no longer be offered.

   Classic Ink Refills (other than the retiring 2010-2012 In-Colors) will still be available.

   Stampin' Spots are being discontinued.  Stampin' Up! may possibly reconfigure and sell some of the Classic Ink Spots.

   NO color changes being made - except the retiring 2010-2012 In-Colors and five new In-Colors will replace them.

IMPORTANT CORRECTION: 
Two items that were included on the Retiring Accessories List are NOT actually retiring. The lists have been updated to remove these items:  #108360 Craft Scissors and #103579 Paper Snips.
