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.

Video with Stampin’ Up! Stitched Dies for some easy WOW cards!

November 30, 2020
Look at these fun and unique cards made with the Stitched Triangle dies!

Save

Aren't they neat? Our Stitched dies are quite versatile and can be used in a variety of ways as you can see!

I used the Well Said stamp set, Well Written & Stitched Triangle dies. The DSP is 5 1/4" X 4" and the Vellum ¾" X 4”

These cards were created on last week's FB Live video. If you're not following me yet here's the link to my FB page. Be sure to like & follow so you catch them every week on Tuesdays at 11 am CT.

Check out the Stitched Rectangle cards below. I cut all of the Playful Patterns Designer Paper layers at the same time using just 2 dies.

Save

How did I do it? Start out with a piece measuring 5 1/4" X 4" and choose the 3rd & 6th dies from the outside. Perfect layers!

I then layered the Designer Paper with card stock and added a die-cut greeting from the Best Year stamp set.

Supplies & Measurements:
- Coastal Cabana, Crushed Curry, & Calypso Coral
- Tasteful Label dies, Detailed Bands dies, rhinestones
- DSP – 5 ¼” X 4”, and cut with dies at 3 ¾” X 3” & 3 1/8” X 1 ¾”
- CS – 4 5/8” X 3 ¼” and 3 3/8” X 2”
Remember you can find me here on Facebook 6 times a month!

Black Friday Special! (Through Sunday too)

November 27, 2020

Do you normally shop on Black Friday? Online or in the stores? I have a feeling there will be a LOT more online shopping this year! That's my plan anyway.

I thought I'd host my own Black Friday special this weekend; just in case you want/need any Stampin' Up! products.

Be sure you consider your crafty friends or family when shopping. Think card kits or Paper Pumpkin! Giving them some special projects to create while they stay at home is a thoughtful gift.

All online orders over $55 this weekend that use this host code NCMAWRKB will receive one of our hand made Multipurpose glue stands!

And if your order is over $75 I'll add a tube of Multipurpose glue too!

Go here to shop but be sure to order between Friday, November 27th through Sunday, November 29th to get this special offer!

Save

I will choose the color unless you message me requesting a certain color. We have a limited supply of some colors.

If you want to purchase one or more they're available in my Shop here.  They are $6 each and shipping is about $3-4 in US. They make great gifts for your stamping friends!

Next weekend I'm having the last Christmas cards class on Saturday. Here are the cards we're making:

It's all about the trees this time! I realized after I grouped them together that each one features a tree.

Class is Saturday, December 5th at 10 am. Class size is limited due to social distancing but there are two spots left. Message me if you'd like to come. You can get the PDF tutorial for this class and the 3 others I had here at my Shop.
