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.

A CUTE Kite Delight card idea; shared in a video with blending & coloring tips

May 1, 2022

Here is another playful card made with the Kite Delight stamp set in the 2022 January-June Stampin' Up! catalog.

Save

I used a Blending Brush and Coastal Cabana ink to create a soft sky background. Then the kite tails were stamped using Black Memento ink and colored in with Blends markers. Each kit was stamped using the coordinating color of card stock – Highland Heather, Daffodil Delight and Coastal Cabana. They are fussy cut since there is not a set of dies to match. I don't mind this at all since they're easy to cut out.

This stamp set is NOT carrying over into the new catalog and will retire at the end of May. See it here:

I used the Pick a Banner punch on the Highland Heather greeting banner. The banner & kits are all popped up on Stampin' Dimensionals.

I also created two other cards during the video. See all three cards below:

This first card features three of the new In Colors from the brand new Annual Catalog. They're Sweet Sorbet (red), Parakeet Party (green) and Tahitian Tide (turquoise). Aren't they vibrant and eye catching!

I call this card a Dutch Door card fold. It's pretty easy to do and makes great use of your card stock too. Watch how with my quick tip in the video here.

This next card is one we made at my April card clubs here in Minot. It's called a Split Panel card. The designer paper is from the recently retired Pattern Party host DSP. We have a new host DSP called Design a Daydream that is just as great in the annual catalog. I love these free paper options for hosts!!

Save

My colors include Granny Apply Green, Bermuda Bay and Mango Melody. A little bit of Coastal Cabana too. We used the Cactus Builder punch for the pot, cactus and flowers. You can see the measurements below.

This style of fun fold card is super easy; I hope you'll try one!

New In Colors paired with the Kite Delight stamp set

April 29, 2022

I shared this colorful kite card on a recent FB live video here. I wanted to use the Kite Delight stamp set and the newest In Colors coming out on May 3rd.

The kite and sun are fussy cut and the kite is colored in with new In Color Blends markers.

Save

I've been sharing the new In Colors with my Club gals this month and everyone LOVES them! They are so bright, happy & will be perfect additions to our color line.

If you're interested in getting these new In Colors you can opt in for my In Color bundle now through May 7th. See the options here. There's also an add on option for our In Color Blends markers – buy 4 get 1 free and a Designer paper share too!

I heat embossed the clouds with White embossing powder. But the image is an outline image and I wanted my clouds to be 'white'. So I used the Chalk Marker to color it in. Unfortunately it was on the retired list and is unavailable now. But two other ideas are to use a White watercolor pencil or a blender pen and White craft ink.

The Kite Delight stamp set is retiring at the end of May. I also created two other cards with it during the video. See all three cards below:
