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.

Snail Mail & Pretty Perennials; a cute combo with video!

January 18, 2021
Here are the cards I created for Monday night's FB Live video. It was 'Stamp with Me' night which occurs on the 2nd & 4th Monday nights. Join me here!

When I first saw the Snail Mail designer paper I fell in love! I had absolutely no idea it would be this cute. Have you found that to be true? You see things in a catalog and think they're okay or kind of nice. But then in real life you are amazed?! This is one of those papers!

This was inspired by a similar card I received in a swap from my friend Dawn Olchefske.

Here they are separately:

Beautiful Vine Design with Oh So Ombre with video!

January 14, 2021

What do you think of the Oh So Ombre designer paper? Have you seen it yet? If not look here.

Save

It's a 6 X 6" pack of 48 sheets of Designer Series Paper. There are 2 designs and 4 colors in this pretty pack and it's FREE with any $50 order during Sale-a-Bration!

I created this card with it for a Flowerbug's swap a few weeks ago. The first card features the Bermuda Bay color in the pack.

Of course I chose to use all new products! The pretty stitched outline is from the Stitched with Whimsy dies seen here. I love that they don't actually cut; they just stitch a pretty outline. You can really notice the Ombre since I switched the die when I inserted it back in the window. Watch how in the video.

The intricate die is from the Flowering Vines die. It's part of the bundle with the Vine Design stamp set which is where the greeting images are from. See them here.

Here I used the BlackBerry Bliss piece of DSP. Which do you prefer?

I hope you watch the quick video I made featuring these new products.
