This card was inspired by all of the Shimmer and Shine products we have in the Stampin' Up! product line I started with Soft Succulent Shimmer Paper in the Stampin' Up! January - April 2023 Mini Catalog, and paired it with Soft Succulent Cardstock, Fancy Flora Designer Series Paper, Soft Succulent Satin Shimmer Ribbon, and Crumb Cake Butterflies using Brilliant Wings Dies. I added a little more bling with Gold Sequins from the Pastel Adhesive-Backed Sequins pack. I used sentiments from the Go To Greeting Stamp Set, heat embossed in White Embossing Powder on Soft Succulent and fussy cut with a boarder. You''ll enjoy creating cards like this to give someone special in your life.
The basecard for today's card is Soft Succulent Fine Shimmer 12" X 12" Paper. Then a layer of Soft Succulent Cardstock. Then a layer of one of the prints from the Fancy Flora 6" X " Designer Series Paper Pack.
Next, I used the Stylish Shapes Dies to die cut a circle out of the Fancy Flora Designer Series Paper, and mounted it on Dimensionals. I die cut two different sizes of butterflies out of Crumb Cake Cardstock using the Brilliant Wings Dies and mounted them on the raised circle.

Retiring Colors ... and 1 correction
Stampin' Up! Demonstrators were able to preview the new Annual Catalog for 2023-2024 that will become available to customers 2 May 2023.
As part of the new catalog, about every 5 years or so, Stampin' Up! refreshes the complete color collection to ensure we are keeping up with current color trends.
Stampin' Up! also announced to demonstrators the current Core colors that will retire from the Stampin' Up! product line. There are 11 Core colors that will no longer be available after 1 May 2023. Here they are:

Correction: I incorrected stated in yesterday's post that Coastal Cabana was retiring. Coastal Cabana IS NOT retiring; Mint Macaron is retiring. Image above has been updated.
You'll want to review you current projects, and Paper Pumpkin Kits to ensure you have enough Cardstock, Blends, Markers, and ink refills to ensure you have the colors you need to complete your projects.
Typically, once Stampin' Up! announces retiring colors, they tend to sell out fast, so order your favorites before they are gone.

New Catalog Pricing Changes
While Stampin' Up strives to provide you with the best paper crafting products and experiences, without sacrificing the quality of Stampin' Up! is know for, all while being mindful of cost and other important consideration, we are all aware of the increases in costs we're seeing in today's market place. This is a heads up that price increase will impact several product categories in the upcoming new catalog.
As soon as new colors are announced and we say goodbye to others, we often see several retiring colors sell out. Since these products will not be restocked, now is the time to check your stock of cardstock, ink pads and refills, Blends and Markers and Designer Series Paper. Place your order for the items you plan to continue using.
