Marilyn D from MO
For me it is a toss up between Going Places and Botanical Gardens. Since I have to choose and it is really hard since one is great for guy cards and the other for most everything else, I would have to choose Botanical Gardens. To me it is the best DSP design of all time.Ai
I am going to miss the Typeset Specialty Designer paper. TFS
Randee S from MI
I have been inspired to make little notecards out of my hoarded stash of DSP because of your post. Thank you so much for continuing to share such amazing inspiration! I have loved many of the DSP collections this year, but I’m going to miss the the Have A Cuppa DSP stack the most. The sheet with the little lemon slices was too cute! The merry moments Christmas DSP this year was really fun too. Thanks for the chance to win! Deepa M. in Cleveland, OH

Love you blog. Thanks for your tutorial and a chance to win.
Crissy, NJ
I love birthday bouquet
Bohemian is the one I will miss the most.
I’m already missing Typeset Specialty! So classic and can be used with anything. Can’t wait to get new stuff though ???❤️?
Botanical Gardens and Typeset Specialty are two that I would go for often. I always love seeing the new releases , but a lot of the older packs are so beautiful I hate to see them go. Thanks for the chance to win Patty!
Karen L.
California
Miss some yes, but there are always new ones to steal our hearts! Love this idea and plan to use up some of my stash using this plan. Thanks so much for detailed sharing!
Birthday bouquet! Such a great paper group!
I think my favorite, even after the occasions catalog came out, still ended up being typeset specialty dsp. It is so versatile and you can throw a piece onto anything and make it look fancier! Thanks for this opportunity! Pretty petals is my second fave!
Jenn Charles
California
I will miss the Birthday Bouquet DSP the most! I love the soft pretty colors!
The one I will miss the most is Going Places. It is wonderful for all the men in my family and all the engineers! But with Stampin Up there will always be something new! Kathy in Connecticut.
I have to say first that this past year Stampin’ Up had exceptionally gorgeous paper, however, I will really miss the English Garden paper. I only have scraps left!! Sandra from Ohio.
I think it would fun to create with the Farmer’s Market.
Thanks for the split card tutorial…I have made a dozen cards this week and plans to do more. this layout and cutting idea is definitely a keeper…pretty petals will be my most missed even though I didn’t buy any DSP this catalog because I have so many older sheets to use…

patti
I too am going to miss these DSP but I’m sure SU will delight us with some new ones! Thanks for the opportunity to win these!
Nancy from Pa.
I can’t decide, I love all the papers this year. But if you are making pick one, Botanical Gardens Designer Series Paper is my favorite, followed by It’s My Party Designer Series Paper Stack. They did a great job on paper in 2015 catty.
Can’t wait to start using the newest papers.
Cara in PA.
Love – Love – Love the Birthday Bouquet DSP – so sad that it is retiring!
There are so many I’m going to miss, but I think my favorite is Love Blossoms
My favorite DSP is the Birthday Bouquet. Actually I have a lot of favorites, but Birthday Bouquet has a wide variety of patterns. Looking forward to seeing all the new “stuff”. Thanks for this opportunity to win some blog candy.
Pretty Petals is my favorite DSP stack and I have used it many times on cards!! My favorite 12×12 paper is the Botantical Gardens and will miss both of them!
I am going to miss the Love’s Blossom. I love pink:) Love getting your emails each day, such inspirations!
Thanks so much Patty! I’m going to miss the Birthday Bouquet the most of the retiring DSP.
I will miss so many, but Birthday Bouquet is especially nice. Soft colors but still has the zing for a perky card.
Botical flowers…u have made me think to go get into my scraps and make some quick handy little cards, thanks for sharing
I think I will miss Birthday Bouquet the most.
I love the Birthday Bouquet….I just love it…I think it is one of the prettiest papers that Stamping Up has done… I love using it…but know once it is gone it is gone…the colors are so awesome and spring like all in all just beautiful…
I think I will miss the Timeless Elegance paper most…so versatile.
I ordered 2 packs of Birthday Bouquet DSP because I love punks and greens and it is such yummy paper. And, of course, I’m hoarding one pack. I’m Cindy from Fenton, MO. Thanks for sharing!
I’ll miss Birthday Bouquet. It is so feminine.
I will really miss the Love Blossoms DSP.
Theresa
Bisbee, Arizona
It’s hard to pick just one, but I will miss Birthday Bouquet DSP for sure! Thanks for all you share!
I think I will miss love blossom the most.
I am going to miss Timeless Elegance the most, with Birthday Bouquet coming in second. Thanks for doing this give away! LOVE your designs!!!
Wanda, Matthews, NC
I am going to miss Farmers Marker
I was really disapointed when I heard that Have a Cuppa was being discontinued so soon. I love all the colors in that….plus I’m a tea freak. Anyway, thanks for the chance to win. Looking forward to seeing the new catalog. The sneak peaks I’ve seen have been great.
Timeless elegance by far followed by Birthday Bouquet.
Botanical Blooms. I love how it coordinates with the stamps and framelits. Thanks for all you do!
Birthday Bouquet… Loved the soft florals and pastel colors.
I am loving Going Places right now. So much fun to use. I love my Have a Cuppa too. I still can’t believe the stamp set and framelits are discontinued so soon. I also love Farmer’s Market for the gingham. I think I will miss the Have a Cuppa the most since I just recently received my bundle. I only have Pretty Petals from my shares so I would love to play some more with this paper. Funny how I really don’t start missing things until they are going away. Oh well, I am sure there will be more to take their places. I plan on trying to use one of the cups with the coordinating papers for the diagonal cards instead of a flower. I just need to sit down and work on these now. Thanks for all your great videos, projects and tips!
Going to miss Bohemian Designer Series Paper you did a great video on it thanks
very tough decision but think it’s going to be Botanical Gardens.. I’ve got 2 packages ‘stashed’ away….lol Tanks for the opportunity to win some blog candy

I’m going to miss the Birthday Bouquet DSP the most! Thank you for the chance at some blog candy!
I am loving the Birthday Bouquet. Loved this idea for DSP, thanks Patty.
Of the retiring DSPs, I think I will miss the Going Places stack the most. I loved EVERY design in that stack. Pretty Petals is a close second because of its brilliant color combinations. Sandy S. from California.

Timeless Elegance but seriously, who can do without any of it except go broke?! The quality paper is awesome to work with. Keep up the videos Patty…they are an inspiration to all of us.
I am going to miss two stacks of paper — the one from Botanical Suites and Birthday Bouquet. So next week at my local stamp club I will be ordering a set of each of these papers!

Have an awesome Mother’s Day!
The in-color designer paper. I just love these colors and tried to order some and it was already gone days ago! I am so disappointed and have called and asked everyone I knew if they had any of the Mossy Meadow script paper from this series even a small 6 x6 scrap would have tickeled me. No luck.
The new colors look nice.
Lora G Oregon
Hi Patty
I just love the Bohemian paper series I’m really going to miss that one
I’m going to miss birthday bouquet. I even stocked up on it!
Birthday Bouquet is one of two or three all-time favorites, but since I bought some extra, I think I’d have to say Pretty Petals. So wouldn’t it be nice if I won? Love the diagonal slash notes and cards.
I’m going to miss Bohemian Designer Series Paper. I love the fun colors! I’m in FL so who doesn’t like bright colors????
I’m going to miss Timeless Elegance the mosy
I’m going to miss Birthday Bouquet. Looking forward though to all the new DSP. Stampin up always has such wonderful products. Enjoy the videos & new techniques you share. Thanks

I love floral papers & stamps as I make a lot of birthday and thinking of you cards for women friends and family. My favorites are Birthday Bouquet and English Garden. Such lovely flower patterns and color combinations in these two paper packs.
I like them all but I will miss Timeless Elegance the most.
I can’t pick just one,I wil miss Birthday Bouquet and Timeless Elegance.
Hi! I can’t narrow it down so my favorite DSP is love blossoms and pretty petals! Thank you!!

I will miss the Botanical Gardens Designer Series Paper. Makes such an amazing card.
I am going to miss Chery on top paper stack so darn cute.
Nanci S
Florida
Happy Mothers Day to you Patti!!
I am going to miss “Have a Cuppa” because there does not seem to be enough patterned papers out there with a coffee theme. Yes, there are stamps, but that is not the same. I LOVE coffee, and these papers make my cards more personable to friends and family who know my addiction.
Probably Pretty Petals and It’s My Party papers are my favorites.
So sad to say goodbye to Birthday Bouquet. It’s such a beautiful paper. However, I do have a hidden stash. LOL. Have a wonderful Mother’s Day. Blessings.
I really like the Typeset Specialty. But I am sure some in the new catalog will also be “loves”!
Beth B Clemmons, NC
I am going to miss everyday chic. I always have lived the dsp that is mostly black patterns. They are always so creative.

English Garden was my favorite this year.
Botanical Gardens was my favorite…I did a lot with it.
I’m going to miss Birthday Bouquet & Timeless Elegance. Too bad we couldn’t get 12 sheets of just the roses from that pkg.
Chris – WA
Birthday Bouquet. Love the colors and the fun prints! And the stripes! I always find that I use striped papers a lot. They just go with anything and don’t interfere with the stamped image or other paper motifs. Thanks for a fun give a way. Have a super day!
Karen from Michigan
This is an easy question to answer: Botanical Gardens will be greatly missed by me. In fact I ordered 3 extra packs of this DSP before it even hit the retiring list. Thanks, Patty, for all your videos; I love seeing how you create new items.
Love your diagonal slash note card idea. What a great way to maximize the use of DSP. I’ll miss Birthday Bouquet the most. I already have several packages stashed away. From all your replies, it would be fun to know which DSP will be missed the most. Thanks so much for your give-away. Jeannette from Arkansas
I will miss the Pretty Petals Designer Stack. Such great patterns. Love your Notecards!!
I will miss the Birthday Bouquet DSP. I love the florals in it.

Hey Patty,
Thanks for all the great ideas, they always start my creative juices flowing! I am going to miss both the Birthday Bouquet & Botanical Gardens the most. However, I’m confident they will be replaced with something just as good. ~Patsy from FL
I love the cards you made! Thanks so much for sharing all your ideas!
Love this idea Patty, can’t wait to try it. I am going to miss Timeless Elegance and Birthday Bouquet the most!
I love the Botanicals, gonna miss them.
First of all, thank you for sharing this great way of designing a card, and for the opportunity to win paper. I have really liked the English Garden DSP. The prints and color combinations are beautiful. However, I have to say that my very best favorite is Wildflower Fields DSP along with the companion stamp set Flowering Fields which were both in the Sale-A-Bration catalog. Such a GREAT deal SU offers us each year.
My vote goes to Birthday Bouquet due to the versatility–good patterns for all ages and especially love the beautiful flower patterned papers.
First of all, thank you for the opportunity of winning some paper, and for the GREAT idea for making some cards. I have enjoyed using the English Garden DSP. The patterns are beautiful. However, the DSP I probably like the best was the Wildflower Fields DSP along with the Flowering Fields Stamp Set. SU certainly treats us well each year.
Elaine Quinn—-Milford, MA
I’m going to miss “It’s My Party” DSP–love it for birthday cards. Thanks for a chance at some great blog candy!
This is my third try so I hope it only shows up once. I am not really computer literate.
Thank you, Patty for sharing the good idea for making these cards, and for the opportunity of winning some paper.
I really liked English Garden DSP. The patterns and color used were beautiful. However, I believe my very favorite was the Wildflower Fields DSP which went along with the Flowering Fields Stamps.
SU certainly treats us well each year with the chance to receive FREE items from Sale-A-Bration.
Elaine Quinn—Milford, MA
It’s a tough choice; but the one I will miss most is Timeless Elegance. Thanks for a chance to win!!

Caroline

Hi Patty
first of all, (s) thank you for the link
I’m going to miss the “Love Blossoms Designer Series Paper Stack” so much that I just had
to buy it the other day before IT WAS GONE (s). I love the colors and the patterns that it gives me to create the most prettiest cards. I have most of the other ones and sad to see them go, but, I know that we have to make room for the next ones. I know I’m like everyone else, I love creating with S.U. and my family really loves my cards. Thank you so much Patty for all your tutorials, blog and your You Tube, they really help us just to create more and use our own designs which is wonderful
thank you again
Debbie H, Pennsylvania
I will miss the Pretty Petals paper pack
Oh, definitely Timeless Elegance! I have 3 packs already! Thank you for all your inspiration too!
Not hard to choose my fav-English Garden, with its lovely color palette and beautiful prints. But I predict it will soon be replaced by a new favorite!
oh my gosh love this idea!
Pretty Petals DSP! Tonya D from Illinois
I think I will miss Botanical Gardens. I know the replacements will be the best though. The new colors look very enticing! Ha! Thanks for the chance to win.
Love them all They inspire so much creativity and so many options from masculine to romantic and whimsical!
It’s still 11:00pm her on the 9th 🙂 hope I still have a chance! I will sorely miss the typeset DSP! 🙁 like… A lot…
