Retirement of Whisper White products from SU!

Stampin' Up! just announced the sudden retirement of Whisper White cardstock.  Unfortunately, the mill producing the cardstock has permanently closed due to the COVID crisis.  Whisper White is soon to be replaced with a new cardstock: Basic White.   In the meantime they will continue to sell the Whisper White products until stock is gone - but are limiting them to two per item per order.  Only while stock lasts.  We are all sorry for this inconvenience; but glad a suitable alternative has been found.  Here is a short video explaining the products affected and showing the comparison between Whisper White and our new Basic White offering.

So if you really want some of the Whisper White products listed here - I would suggest ordering as soon as possible.  You can let me know what you'd like and I will do my best to get it for you; or order directly online using my hostess code of GMG7A43R - at www.stampingwithmaureen.stampinup.net.

These items are now available while supplies last with an order limit of 2 per item per order.

• Whisper White 12" x 12" (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Cardstock (124302)
• Assorted Memories & More Cards & Envelopes (149710)
• Whisper White Note Cards & Envelopes (131527)
• Whisper White 3" x 3" (7.6 x 7.6 cm) Envelopes (145829)
• Whisper White 8-1/2" x 11" Cardstock (100730)
• Whisper White 8-1/2" x 11" Thick Cardstock (140272)
• Whisper White Medium Envelopes (107301)

Our new Basic White products will become available to purchase as soon as we have them in stock. This means that some Whisper White and Basic White products may be available at the same time. Additionally, due to the nature of sourcing, some Basic White products may not be available before the Whisper White products sell out. Please know that we are working on getting these products available to you as fast as possible.

If you are placing an order - be sure to check out the Giant Year End Clearance of our retiring items from the Fall mini - and believe you me, it is about 90% of that catalog that is retiring.  So if you have favorites you've not yet purchased - now is the time.  Plus there are a bunch of new items in the Clearance rack, so be sure to check that also.

Finally - need a last minute gift - I am currently completing gift certificate orders.  You can order in any denomination you like and they come in a beautiful presentation folder and decorated envelope - perfect and ready to give.  It's a thoughtful gift for a crafty friend - or even better - let your loved ones know you would like one for Christmas and have them contact me.

Hope you are all having a great month - thank you all for your continued support!  ~Maureen
