With the transition from Stampin’ Up!’s 2022-2023 Annual Catalog to the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog, we see some paper crafting products retiring, some products carrying over into the new catalog, and brand-new goodies introduced.
Some of the retiring products are offered at up to 60 percent off. Click here to browse the store and shop for these discounted items.
In today’s post, I play with a fun fold — the Envelope Fold — with a variety of things: retiring, carry over, and new. My team member, Theresa Huffman, introduced our team (Kim’s Paper Krafters) to the fold during one of our virtual team meetings for our mystery stamping project.
Sun Prints Envelope Fun Fold
The card featured at the top uses the retiring Sun Prints 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper. (You need one piece that measures 3 3/4 x 3 3/4 inches scored on the diagonal.) Be sure to watch the video below for step-by-step instructions for creating the Envelope Fun Fold handmade card. All other items will carry over into the brand-new catalog, including:
Basic White card stock measuring 8 x 51/4, scored at 4
One half of the white embossed with the Fern 3D Embossing Folder
Night of Navy card stock measuring 5 1/2 x 4 1/4
Basic White circle die cut with Stylish Shapes Dies
Thank You sentiment from Good Feelings Stamp Set, stamped in Night of Navy
Night of Navy 3/8″ Bordered Ribbon (18 inches)
Rhinestone Basic Jewels colored with Night of Navy Stampin’ Blends
The above photo shows what the card looks like inside.
I created the card above during the mystery stamping. It uses the retiring Petal Park 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper and a sentiment from the Framed Florets stamp set. The Cane Weave 3D Embossing Folder carries over into the new catalog.
Now it gets exciting. The card above uses some brand-new products available beginning May 2 in Stampin’ Up!’s 2023-2024 Annual Catalog, including: Fresh as a Daisy 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper, Circle Celebrations Bundle, and the new In Colors of Moody Mauve and Wild Wheat.
And, this last card is created with the brand-new Beautiful Balloons Bundle and the Bright & Beautiful 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper.

With Easter just days away, I have to share one last card created with Stampin’ Up!’s Easter Bunny Stamp Set. The images are just so darn cute. (The good news: the stamp set and punch carry over into Stampin’ Up!’s 2023-2024 Annual Catalog.)

However, I believe this stamp set isn’t just for Easter. Think baby cards and handmade creations for little kids.
