Stampin’ Up! Last Chance List – Stampin' With Candice

#GDP527 – Reasons to Celebrate | Cheers & Sips Suite

Three handmade greeting cards featuring drinks. The left card showcases a colorful cocktail with a pineapple garnish, the center card displays champagne flutes with bubbles, and the right card features glasses filled with a cold beverage and ice, all with the word 'Cheers'.

When I saw this week’s Global Design Project challenge, I knew the Cheers & Sips Suite was the perfect choice to grab. I had so much fun creating for multiple occasions—starting with some bubbly champagne, moving into a simple just because, and wrapping it up with cozy, seasonal hot chocolate.

Such a fun and versatile set! ✨
Heads up—this suite is on the Last Chance List, so be sure to grab it before it’s gone.

For each of my designs, I added a few elements outside of the Cheers & Sips Suite—things like ribbon, embellishments, and even other stamp sets. Can you spot what they were? 👀
Before I break down each card, let me first share what is included in the suite.

What’s in the Cheers & Sips Suite

Just a reminder: the stamps and dies are on the Last Chance List, but the designer paper is still available.

Cheers & Sips Stamp Set #165588 (Last Chance)
Cheers & Sips Dies #165593 (Last Chance)

Glass & Gardens Embossing Folders #165597 (Last Chance)
Gold Striped 3/8″ Mesh Ribbon #165599

A Fun Surprise! 🥳

I entered these cards into the Global Design Project challenge and had the best surprise on Monday when I was tagged and notified that one of my designs was chosen as this week’s winner! 🎉

Can you guess which one?
Here’s a hint… it’s the one where I got a little creative. 😉

Card One – Bubbly with a Creative Twist 🥂

If you look closely at the Cheers & Sips stamp set, you’ll notice there is no stemmed wine or champagne glass. That didn’t stop me!

To create my glass:

I used the umbrella image as the base, masking off the top portion.
I masked the pin image to create two straight lines for the stem.

While the shape isn’t a perfect champagne flute, I still wanted that bubbly feel. To achieve that:

I used the Beautiful Butterflies Stamp Set #164608 (Last Chance) for the tiny dot images to mimic bubbles.

Additional details include:

Black Baker’s Twine #155475
2024–2026 In Color Flat Pearls #165266
Lasting Linen Stamp Set #167107 for a subtle textured background
Wink of Stella #141897 for sparkle (because bubbly needs shimmer!)

I kept the color palette mostly tone-on-tone with a pop of black:

Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends #154893 for the champagne
Peach Pie cardstock and ink
DSP also includes Pumpkin Pie accents

A handmade card featuring two champagne glasses filled with bubbles, with the word 'Cheers' written below. The card has a warm orange background and black accents.

Two champagne glasses with bubbles on a textured yellow and black card background, featuring a black ribbon and the word 'Cheers'.

Card Two – Let the DSP Shine ✂️

A handmade card featuring two stylized drink glasses, one purple and one orange, with a sprig of greenery, set against a textured, dark purple background and accented with a 'Cheers' message and ribbon.

For this card, I focused on using the suite itself and cut my images directly from the DSP instead of stamping.

The color combination came straight from the paper and was a little outside my comfort zone—but I loved how it turned out!

Details:

Peach Pie card base
Blackberry Bliss background embossed with the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder #161600
Old Olive DSP for the striped background
White Baker’s Twine
Cloud Cover behind the glasses
2025–2027 In Color Flat Pearls #165192

That brick texture adds just the right amount of interest without overpowering the design.

Card Three – Cozy Winter Vibes ☕

A handmade card featuring two drink images with ice, set against a patterned background, and the word 'Cheers' in stylish typography.

For my final card, I wanted a winter-inspired feel. The Cloud Cover DSP created the perfect backdrop.

I used a similar layout to Card Two but:

Flipped it horizontally
Varied the widths of the background strips
A smaller focal square for balance

Additional elements:

Peaceful Garden Glimmer Paper #165929 for sparkle
Secret Sea for the background and stamping
Neutral Stampin’ Blends for the drinks

Instead of stamping the ice cubes inside the drinks, I placed them on top. My goal was marshmallows with a touch of Wink of Stella—but my daughter said it looked more like iced coffee. ☕❄️
Honestly… either works!

Finishing touches:

Straw from the More Than Autumn Stamp Set #164228 (Last Chance)
More Than Autumn Dies #164075 (Last Chance)
Secret Sea Bordered Open Weave Ribbon #166932 (available in January)

One Suite – Three Very Different Cards

Three cards.
Three completely different looks.
One versatile suite.

That’s just one more reason to grab the Cheers & Sips Suite before it’s gone. If it’s been sitting on your wish list, this is your sign. 💛

Treasured Kindness Stamp Set

I’ve had this stamp set for a while and haven’t had a chance to use it. I love the look of it and how all the pieces work together. For this card I wanted the image to be the main focus of the card so I decided on a Z-fold card that allows the message to be show when the card is both closed and opened.

Because this is a Z-fold card I wanted to share a few additional images so you can see how it looks when it’s open as well as a close up on the main image. One of the tips I’ve found for two-step stamping such as this set is to stamp the darker image first. I’ve found it’s easier to see where to place the lighter image over the darker image than visa versa.

158940 – Treasured Kindness Stamp Set (R)
156406 – Timber 3D Embossing Folder (C)
159183 – Stylish Shapes Dies (C)
158138 – White 3/4″ Frayed Ribbon (R)
Colors – Soft Suite (R), Pear Pizzazz (R), Old Olive (C), Crumb Cake (C), So Saffron (R), Very Vanilla (C)

(R) Retiring, (C) Carrying Over

Last Chance Product 2019

It’s that time of year again when we have to say goodbye to some of our favorite stamps sets, colors, tools and accessories in order to make room for new items. I’ve seen the new catalog and trust me there are plenty of things to be excited about, however there are also a lot of great items you’ll want to grab before they are gone for good.

Link to start shopping for Candice Anderson Stampin' Up! demonstrator. Shop at: candiceanderson.stampinup.net.

Remember all retired products are while supplies last so shop early to be sure to get your favorites before they are gone for good. Last-Chance products will be available until June 3rd or until they are sold out which ever comes first. Just a quick note as almost all the red-rubber stamp sets will be changing over to the new cling stamps there are some listed on the list that are actually carrying over to the new catalog. These are marked however if you want them in wood mount, clear mount or in the bundles be sure to get them now. I’m including the lists in a few ways so you can choose the best way that works for you to check them out. The best way to check if something is still available is to check my website. You can also order online and have it shipped to you 24/7.

One other note:

You may have heard or noticed that the Big Shot and the cutting board are on the retired list. Stampin’ Up! is in the process of developing their own products that will be similar to these. We haven’t heard yet when they will be available. There are new dies and embossing folders in the catalog as well as some of the ones that are carrying over. The new dies are slightly different, but accomplish the same thing. I’ll let you know more information when I have it. Stampin’ Up! expects to get several different shipments in of blades for the cutter so if they are sold out be sure to add yourself to the email list and hopefully you can grab some when they come back in stock.
