Welcome to my TEAM’s monthly blog hop as we take another look at the January-April Mini Catalog before it retires at the end of the month. If you have not checked out the Last Chance List from this catalog make sure you do before the items are gone. You will see there are some pretty amazing sale prices, but these will not take effect until April 9th, if there are supplies left.

Hard to capture a good picture of this card with all the sparkle, This card is a center opening card, like the one I shared last week during my Fun Fold Video.
This DIY Graduation Card will make any graduate proud of their accomplishments. I used the Cap & Gown Stamp Set from the January-April Mini. This set is moving from the printed catalog to the Online Exclusive Section. But all the sparkle comes from product that will soon be retiring from the Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog.
First check out the graduation hat. I stamped with StazOn Ink on to the Distressed Gold Specialty Paper. This paper looks so stunning with black card stock. Do you have some in your stamp room? Well it is retiring out of the Annual Catalog. So don’t let it get a way.
Next check out the numbers created with the Alphabet A La Mode Die Set. What about that sparkle? Also created with the soon-to-be retired More Dazzle Specialty Paper. There are two more items retiring soon on this card. First the Gold Celebrations Specialty Paper and the 2023-2025 Luster Specialty Paper.

Whether you are celebrating a Graduation, Special Milestone Birthday or a Retirement these retiring products are a must to add sparkle to the celebration.
