Changes are coming!

August 28, 2025

Stampin’ Up! announced a few upcoming changes last week. I mentioned and explained them in this video.

1. First up is the change in the type of stamps they’ll be offering. Currently we have both red rubber/cling and clear photopolymer. Starting in November all new stamps will be clear photopolymer.

Craft Stamps, Clear Stamps, Decorative Stamps & Cling Stamps

Why? They are having difficulty sourcing the product needed to produce cling or red rubber stamps. In addition they are not selling as well as photopolymer do. It seems most people like the clear stamps; my customers have mentioned this to me too.

So for stamp sets from the current Annual and Holiday catalog here’s how it works going forward. Once they run out of stock of the cling stamps they’ll switch over to clear photopolymer.

2. Next is the packaging. Because most stamps will be in photopolymer after November they will be in new packaging – clear sleeves. These will be approximately 5″ X 9″ in size. They are phasing out the DVD cases. However they will continue to offer them in 4 packs like they currently do. See them here. They will also offer bulk packs of the new thin sleeves as well.

3. The die-cut sleeves will change too and will be the same as the stamp set sleeves. They’ll now have photos of the dies on the cover like you see below.

4. Lastly they are discontinuing our Stampin’ Write markers. The Blends markers are outselling these by far. And because they were originally intended to be used to color directly on red rubber stamps (as well as coloring) they won’t be needed for this.

In my opinion I love coloring with the Blends so much I would never use these for coloring. They leave lines on larger images where the Blends do not. They color so smoothly!

All of our Stampin’ Write markers are now on the Last Chance list and will be available while supplies last. If you love them I’d grab some while you can. See them here.

Get multiple cards from one sheet of Designer Paper! Video & free project sheet too.

August 24, 2026

I shared these beautiful cards on a Live video a few weeks ago. I wanted to make the most of one of my favorite sheets of the Valley in Bloom designer series paper. It’s discounted through August!

You can get more cards than I show above but I mistakenly cut in the wrong place and missed out on more. This pack of Valley in Bloom DSP has many beautiful sheets in it. Get some while it’s on sale.

Save

I recommend cutting the 12 X 12″ sheet into 6 pieces at 3 1/2″ X 4 3/4″. The two center pieces won’t have as much greenery on them but you could change the layout up a bit to reflect that.

My colors include Pretty Peacock with Old Olive & White. I used a variety of punches for my greetings; mostly from my stash of White elements.

Save

The card bases are 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ scored at 2 1/8″ & 4 1/4″. I made sure the Olive layer was small enough that the White inside piece shows as an inside layer. You can see the free project sheet with measurements, photos and supplies when you click here.

I stamped the inside of the cards with the Lily of the Valley stamp set and colored the flowers in with a Blender pen. I love this bundle so much. You can see it here.

You can see the video for this card and one more below. Don’t forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel!
