Updates

Many new things happening at Stampin Up. Right now onstage is happening and on Monday will know what will be staying in the new catalog in June. Here’s what I know now:
1. Retiring colors

2. Trimmer and Bigshot retiring. They are working on replacements for them. Stampin Up dies work in most die cutting machines. I don’t have the Bigshot and have not had problems cutting the dies. It will be interesting to see what they come up with.

3. They will have a new company make the dies.
If you want to order any of the retiring product you can from my website. If you would like the new catalog coming out in June let me know and I’ll send you one. From what I’ve seen there’s some great new things coming in June.
