I am trying to find the STAMPIN’ Up Forever Greenery papers, preferably in the 6x6 size. They are discontinued. I’ve found some on Etsy and eBay, but they are all 6x6 but cut down from 12x12 so the scale of the images is awfully large for card making. Do you have any of this paper that you want to get rid of? Or is there a SU rep that you’d recommend I reach out to who tends to have discontinued papers on hand? Any suggestions are super helpful, I’ve become somewhat fixated on trying to find some of it!  |

I don't have this.
But you might want to know that the papers at SU usually comes in one size. 12x12 or 6x6. If this was a 12x12 collection thats the only size you are going to find.
My upline usually sells all her retired products every year , I believe all rep do.
I'll ask her if you want me to.
I hope you can find it, good luck!
Might be expensive to have a 12x12 pp shipped too.

I’ve been able to find both the 12x12 and 6x6 pieces cut down from 12x12 on both Etsy and eBay. I’ll go that route unless you happen to be in touch with her about something else. Honestly, you all are such a wealth of information. Always appreciate that you share your knowledge! |

Don't you just hate it when something is discontinued! I want the discontinued SU Subtle 3D embossing folder sooooo bad. I keep scrolling eBay and it's killing me that they are all $50! One of these days I might just crack!  |

One of these days I might just crack! $50 for a single embossing folder? That is some serious $$$ 😲 SERIOUS As it turns out, I admired a paper that Shakti used on my spring card exchange card. It’s beautiful, andni thought that maybe she had water colored it. I just found out that it too is a Stampin Up paper (no longer available). I guess I ought to start paying attention to their goodies in order to avoid this happening yet again! |

I would recommend checking FB for SU retired product pages, but I dont think you have FB. I recently joined a couple up here in Canada (along with a CTMH one) and was able to find 2 retired paper packs and a stamp set that I was looking for. pinklady it might be worth a shot for the embossing folder though, if you have FB. |

One of these days I might just crack! $50!! I have this embossing folder, I can't believe it's selling for that much money - and that's American money, too, so it's about $75 Canadian. pinklady, I'm going to the US at the end of May so I can mail you some card fronts made with this embossing folder when I go down there, if you'd like. What would postage be, 50 cents or so, not much? I can just make a bunch of 4.25x5.5 inch ones in various SU colours and white if you'd like. MichyM, the paper you're looking for was definitely only in 12x12. I have it - I used to be a hobby demonstrator, until about a year ago. It is very pretty paper, and the stamp set that goes with it is really pretty, too. |

Thank you all. marg, do you happen to recall how much a set of these papers cost? One seller has got 2 of each sheet, so 12 sheets total, for $22 + shipping. It makes it $2.50 per sheet total which feels awfully predatory to me. Oh and I did buy the stamps and dies (yay), found a used set together at what I thought was a reasonable price on ebay. |

If I recall, a 12x12 package of patterned paper was about $14-16 Canadian when I bought it, so a few dollars less for USD. I'm glad you picked up the stamps and dies, they're so pretty! There are a ton of great card ideas for them on Pinterest. |

I know, that's how I ran across them Pinterest is DANGEROUS! It's the first place I look when I get a new stamp set, or are thinking of buying one - I like to see how versatile it is. SU has a really big presence on there. |

I'm going to see if I can get that to work but if not, I might take you up on your offer.  |

I have a FB for the card events, so I joined a SU buy/sell group less than an hour ago, and already have several people contacting me with what they have to sell. SO much easier that perusing ebay/etsy/mercari. Thank you melanieg! |

Just in case anyone has this punch hanging just around gathering dust, I'm now looking for the Stampin Up Tailored Tag Punch (the elongated hex). I am posting to the SU FB group as well. Crossing everything  |

I have that one -- I think I nabbed it as it was sunsetting. It is not gathering dust. If you have a specific project in mind, I could loan it.
There's another one I'm looking for that I missed, but I forget which...either Everyday Label or Pretty Label.

I ended up finding a seller in the FB group. Hurrah. melanieg , thanks again for that suggestion! pinklady , if you're still looking for that embossing folder, I highly recommend that you give the FB group a go. On ebay, sold auctions for the punch I was looking for ranged between $28-$45ish, plus shipping. I found a seller on the group who charged me $17 including shipping. Also, the paper I was looking a couple of weeks ago for was selling for about $22 per pack on eBay. I was sold a full pack for $11. |

I might try to sell some of my older stuff. |

There are several, I just put Stampin Up in the FB search bar to see what would come up, so I have no idea if these are "the best." www.facebook.com/groups/stampinupretiredproductsalewww.facebook.com/groups/stampinupbuyselltradeiso |
