Stampin Up! have announced some significant changes.
From November, both photopolymer stamps and dies will come in a new style of packaging which will be the same size (measuring 14.3 x 22.9 cm, or 5⅝” x 9″), making them easier to store. Die packages will also feature printed artwork for much easier identification and organisation, and the larger size will mean more stamp artwork can be shown at 100%.
All new stamps and dies from November’s Online Exclusive release onwards will come in the new packaging. Dies released before then will not be switched to the new packaging and will be sold in the existing style of packaging until they are discontinued. Photopolymer stamps released before November will transition to the new packaging over time, depending on inventory levels, so you may receive some stamps in old packaging and some in new.
Standard Stamp Cases (119105) will still be available to purchase for you to use to organize your stamps and supplies, although they may be discontinued in the future. The new style storage envelopes, Stamp & Die Organisers (167772), will be available to purchase in packs of 10 from November 4th should you wish to transfer your photopolymer stamps and die sets to the new packaging.
Sadly, Stampin’ Up! have also decided to discontinue Stampin’ Write Markers. With the growing popularity of Stampin’ Blends, there has been a steady decline in sales of Stampin’ Write Markers. But the good news is that sets of Stampin’ Write Markers are available in Last Chance Products while stocks last, so stock up now if they are on your wish list.
Finally, the new mini catalogue goes live on 4th September – let me know if you would like a copy.
Thank you for taking the time to read my post.
Don’t forget – you get a FREE tutorial of eight cards when you place an order with me. There’s a different set every month. And, if your order is over £40, you will also get to choose stuff from my online shop to the value of your order!
