Changes are coming!

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.

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. 

Save

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.

• A Little Latte Surprise Accordion Fun Fold card with free project sheet!

  March 11, 2024

  ---

  I shared how to make this neat surprise accordion card on last week's Live video.  It's also one of the projects in my 'A Little Latte' card kit to go this month.

  It features the A Little Latte designer series paper – it's new in our Online Exclusives and can be seen here. It's part of the Latte Love suite that includes the DSP, a stamp & dies bundle, swirl dots and natural polka dot ribbon.  

  I've shared another version of this accordion card here but today's card uses a piece of designer paper measuring 6" X 4" that pops up when the card is opened.  You can add elements to the popped up area too. 

  Even though it's in my kit or tutorial this month I am offering the free project sheet for this card. Click on this link to download or print it.  Download Latte Love accordion card

  Unfortunately the pre-cut is sold out; but I may offer it again later this spring once the product is available again.  The PDF tutorial is here for $15.  

  Watch the video here or below to see how it's made.  Don't forget to follow me on my YouTube channel here or my Facebook page here.  There are also two more fun fold cards too!
