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.

Sweet Citrus bundle with a Hybrid embossing folder; you can texture & cut at the same time!

March 7, 2023

In a recent video I shared multiple projects featuring the Sweet Citrus bundle. Every card I make with this set is my favorite! How can that be?

Save

Let's start with colors – they're Balmy Blue with Daffodil Delight and Garden Green. So fresh and spring-like.

The designer paper is called Country Gingham seen here.

The images and greetings are all from the Sweet Citrus stamp set. It comes in a bundle with dies AND a Hybrid embossing folder. See it here

What is a Hybrid embossing folder? It's one that allows you to cut AND texture at the same time.  You can use it the usual way as well. But using the die & folder together eliminates a step. I show how it's done in the video here.

There are many reasons to get this bundle but the greetings are a big one. So perfect and coordinate nicely with the stamp theme.

I shared lots of samples in the video; I hope you watch it! Remember to follow me on Facebook here or on YouTube here.

March 6, 2023

I had to use the new Hello, Irresistible designer paper for my March card kit to go. It's absolutely gorgeous with fresh spring colors plus deep, rich tones too.

Save

The colors include Daffodil Delight, Flirty Flamingo, Lost Lagoon, Petal Pink, Pretty Peacock, Soft Sea Foam.

*Did you see that Lost Lagoon and Pretty Peacock are included? Stampin' Up! shared that we ARE getting a Color Refresh with the new Annual Catalog in May. We'll know which colors are retiring on March 29th.

4 of the 5 designs are fun folds in this kit including an explosion and a shaker card. It was difficult to get a good photo. But they are gorgeous in real life!

This pre-cut kit to go includes the 10 pre-cut cards & all elements, 1/2 pkg. of the new Hello, Irresistible DSP, a share of White Glittered ribbon and In Color Opal Rounds. The PDF tutorial is free!

CUTE Rain or Shine fun-fold card kit to go; or choose the PDF tutorial option

March 5, 2023

When I saw the Rain or Shine specialty DSP I liked it but I didn't know I'd LOVE it until I played with it this weekend. I thought it would be mostly for kids with cute animals (critters I call them) but it's so much more! Each page of the designer paper has glossy accents on one side including rain, flowers, critters and clouds. It's utterly charming!

I decided that each card in this kit would be a fancy fold; some are simple and others a bit 'fancy' but they are easy to achieve with my tutorial. Look at these!

Save

The colors are both soft & bright – I chose to focus on Balmy Blue, Flirty Flamingo, Old Olive & Mango Melody. A super fun and unique mix.

This pre-cut kit to go includes the 10 pre-cut cards & all punched or die-cut elements, 1/2 pkg of the Rain or Shine specialty DSP, a share of White crinkled ribbon and Flat Adhesive-backed pearls. The PDF tutorial is free with the kit! That's $20 in product plus the 10 pre-cut cards for just $28. Get your kit here. If you'd prefer the PDF tutorial only click here. It's $15.

Opt in by March 19th to get the pre-cut kit. After that date I'll order the product and cut out the kits. They will be mailed out via Priority Mail at the end of March, barring any back orders. *The PDF tutorial is sent to you via email from my Shop.

You will need a paper trimmer (to cut your new DSP), adhesives, greeting images and Olive, Flirty Flamingo & Balmy blue ink pads. I used the Playing in the Rain & Framed Occasions stamp sets for greetings but you can substitute others if needed.

Add on the Playing in the Rain stamp set or bundle at 10% off! Message me here for that option and I'll send you an invoice for it all.
