Two New Craft and Carry Bags

Stampin' Up! introduced two new tote bags at OnStage Orlando - the Craft and Carry Stamparatus Bag (Item #149695) and the Craft and Carry Tote Bag. Both bags feature a gorgeous Night of Navy, Coastal Cabana, and Whisper White color palette.

The Stamparatus Bag has two sets of handles. Use the Coastal Cabana handles to carry the bag by hand or attach the shoulder strap.

Unzip the bag to reveal the inside pockets. Whether you use the Stamparatus Bag (Item #149695) for storage, for traveling to crop nights or class, or for both, you will love the amount of pocket space! It will fit the Stamparatus, at least four clear plates, grid paper, foam mats, magnets, and more! Keep all of your accessories together and ready to stamp with this smartly-designed Stamparatus Bag!

The Stamparatus Bag (Item #149695) is available for pre-order for demonstrators now and will be available for customer purchase starting on December 5th, 2018. The Stamparatus Bag will also continue in the 2019-2020 Annual Catalog.

The Craft and Carry Tote Bag is another essential tote for travel and for storage. Keep punches and accessories in the front pockets. 

Stamp sets, embellishments, punches, and even the Paper Trimmer fit nicely in the center dividers. Need a larger compartment? The center dividers are completely removable!

A 30th Anniversary floral luggage tag decorates the handles.

There is ample room to fit your stamping supplies for your next card making session or your next trip to OnStage!

There is even a zippered pocket on the back for a notepad and pen to keep track of your project ideas or for a snack!

If you are a demonstrator, you can pre-order this tote bag now. Otherwise, the only way you can get this exclusive Craft and Carry Tote Bag is by joining Stampin' Up! during 2019 Sale-A-Bration (01/03/19-03/31/19) and selecting Option #2 to include the Craft and Carry Tote Bag in your demonstrator Starter Kit.

OnStage Goody Bag and Product Reveal

I am back from OnStage in Orlando! It was an incredibly busy and exciting five-day trip! I was thrilled to catch up with demonstrator friends I hadn't seen since last OnStage and make even more friends! I had a blast!

We learned new techniques, previewed the new products from the 2019 Occasions and Sale-A-Bration catalogs, and made a few projects.

We received a very generous goody bag and logo swag throughout the OnStage Convention.

Many of our goodies were packaged in a Night of Navy and Copper Foil gift bag.

Our goody bag was a canvas hobo-style, reversible tote bag with the 30th Anniversary logo on one side and gradient yellow polka dots on the inside.

We received a pack of pens and a set of notebooks. The patterns on the notebooks come from the upcoming Happiness Blooms Product Suite.

We were inundated with logo wear! It was fantastic! This foldable shopping/beach tote was no exception. I am keeping this handy tote in my car!

My favorite logo swag was this tool case. The size is perfect for holding tools such as a bone folder, adhesive, markers, rhinestones, and more! There are two mesh zippered pockets as well as a double sized elastic-band pocket page inside.

Our Make and Takes used four different Product Suites - All My Love, Happiness Blooms, Classic Garage, and Needlepoint Nook.

Stampin' Up! also introduced the new Cling Stamp style of stamps during OnStage. Check out the above video for more OnStage reveals and how to assemble your Cling Stamps. Please be patient with me and my videos. I am brand new to editing and am still trying to figure out how to voice over an image.

I had such a fun time that I want to share my experience with you! Do you want to attend the next OnStage in April 2019? Consider joining my demonstrator team and being a part of an amazing company and stamping community!

Thanks for stopping by!

Introducing Cling Stamps!

Sometimes the image stickers for clear-mount stamps need assistance staying attached to the clear acrylic blocks. I am sure you have heard of work arounds such as lip balm, snail adhesive, and the two-way glue pen. Or, you may have even stopped applying the stickers all together. Well, no more! Stampin' Up! has heard our cries and improved their image stickers.

Starting with the 2019 Occasions and the 2019 Sale-A-Bration catalogs, Stampin' Up! will begin introducing a new red, rubber stamp called Cling Stamps. They are the same clear-mount, rubber stamps we all know and love but will have an improved image sticker.

The image sticker is sticky on both sides. One side of the sticker will stick to the foam side of the stamp. The other side of the sticker will adhere to the clear acrylic block.

I must admit, I have stopped putting the image stickers on my stamps. However, I don't like guessing what, where, in what direction, etc. I am stamping. I check before I turn the stamp over, but I like the reassurance the image sticker gives.

So, when we used the new cling stamps at OnStage Orlando, I was very pleased with the image sticker improvements.

The stickers are easy to apply and incredibly sticky. Once the stickers are on the stamp, they are on for good. But, the side of the sticker that adheres to the clear acrylic block is reposition-able. They attach to the clear acrylic blocks nicely and consistently through out the card making process. They don't fall off the clear acrylic blocks either whether you shake them or drop them.

When you are ready to remove the stamp from the clear acrylic block, be sure to peel all of the layers of the stamp (the sticker, the foam, and the rubber) carefully off of the clear acrylic block when finished stamping with it to avoid tearing the foam.

To clean your Cling Stamps, use Stampin' Mist, water, or a very mild detergent. Don't use Stayz On Cleaner because this is an alcohol-based cleaner and can dry out the sticker's stickiness. Don't use cleaning wipes because they can leave fibers behind, and many are also alcohol-based.

As each catalog debuts the new stamps will be offered in Cling Stamps or Photopolymer Stamps. Stampin' Up! is also phasing out Wood-Mount stamps. With the exception of some background stamps, Wood-Mount stamps will no longer be offered starting with the 2019 Occasions and the 2019 Sale-A-Bration catalogs.

Check out the above video for OnStage Product Reveals and how to assemble your Cling Stamps. Skip ahead to 5:56 to start the Cling Stamp portion of the video.

I will now be applying the image stickers to my Cling Stamps! I am looking forward to these changes! Please let me know if you have any questions about Cling Stamps. I am happy to assist!

Thanks for stopping by!

2018 OnStage Orlando Display Boards

OnStage Orlando was a whirlwind of fun-filled days! I met a lot of new friends, learned some new techniques, and, best of all, previewed the new 2019 Occasions and Sale-A-Bration products! Let me tell you, these upcoming catalogs are fantastic! You could even say they are the cat's meow!

All My Love is a two stamp set and framelit bundle Valentine's Day product suite perfect for all ages and genders. The designer series paper in this product suite is Lovely Lipstick, Crumb Cake, Whisper White, and Flirty Flamingo, which reminds me of a color palette from a few years ago that I truly treasured! I am happy to see a similar color palette this year. The framelits in this mega suite are gorgeous! Check out the stitched scalloped hearts!

The Classic Garage Product Suite is perfect for the mechanics and car enthusiasts in your life, whether they are male or female. The gear framelits and the metallic key elements are two of my favorite products from this suite.

Floral Romance is a delicate, romantic looking product suite well-suited for anniversary and thinking of you projects. The designer series paper in this product suite consists of designer series paper and patterned vellum! I can imagine wrapping an LED candle with a piece of this vellum!

Give your cards and envelopes an extra special touch with these faux wax seal embellishments. The detail on these seals is amazing!

You all know I love the Buffalo Check background stamp. So, it goes without saying I LOVE the Gingham Gala Product Suite too! The designer series paper features bright, spring gingham check. Sometimes patterned paper looks great, but the scale of the pattern doesn't fit your project. Stampin' Up! solved this problem by putting a larger scale gingham check pattern on one side of the paper and a smaller scale gingham check pattern on the other side of the paper. Use the larger gingham check side for larger projects and the smaller gingham check side for smaller projects, so the gingham check reads beautifully. So smart!

The bright, bold floral patterns of Happiness Blooms Product Suite was inspired by Scandinavian design. Happiness Blooms is all flower image stamp set that is bundled with 4 mini-punches. Gotta love punches!

There is a coordinating Memories and More Card and Envelope Pack too! They can be used for card making as well as for scrapbooking. I am looking forward to playing with this product suite more.

How Sweet It Is is a bright, fun candy shop inspired Product Suite. The color palette reminds me of different flavors of jellybeans or bubble gum. I love the apothecary jar stamps and framelits! I can't wait to fill these jars with stamped images of candy. Enjoy some candy without all of the calories!

Needlepoint Nook is a nod to embroidery techniques and stitches. The stamps are the highly detailed, photo-realistic DistINKtive(r) style. The DistINKtive stamps look so real, you can see stitches! The framelits cut out images as well as cut designs into card fronts and embellishments. One of the framelits coordinates with the Pretty Label Punch to add a stitched line around the edge of the punch.

Two new project kits are coming in the 2019 Occasions catalog. Both come with stunning, keepsake worthy boxes to store your finished cards in. Two new colors of Stampin' Blends will also debut in the 2019 Occasions catalog - Balmy Blue and Mossy Meadow.

There will be a sweet, animal-themed project tin with exclusive stamp set and punch combo as well as watercolor pencils (including an exclusive Call Me Clover Watercolor Pencil). I can see lunch box notes and tags using this project tin.

The Lace Laser-Cut Specialty Paper is Petal Pink on one side and Whisper White on the other side. Use as is or sponge, spritz, or Brusho the Whisper White side to suit your project needs.

Above are some of the Stamp Set and Thinlit Bundles debuting in the 2019 Occasions catalog. Check out the hummingbird in the upper right corner. We learned two techniques with Brusho pigment powders that are stunning!

One technique uses a framelit as a stencil and the second has pigment powder sprinkled in specific parts of the hummingbird and in the hibiscus.

There are two butterfly stamp sets and thinlit sets in the 2019 Occasions catalog - one from the Gingham Gale Product Suite and one called Beauty Abounds. The butterfly thinlits are enormous and large enough to almost fully cover a card front. Wow! Love them!

The middle right grouping of rectangles doesn't look like much here. However, they are a huge bunch of stitched rectangle framelits. YESSS!!

Can you spot the dog punch in the lower left corner? It corresponds with a dog-themed stamp set. There is also a cat-themed stamp set that coordinates with the Cat Punch in the Annual Catalog. These are tops on my must have list!

There was a single product display board of some of the 2019 Sale-A-Bration products. This board only shows 6 Sale-A-Bration items. There are a lot more, including a cupcake stamp set, a frog stamp set, and a rooster stamp set. I am so glad to see more butterflies! They lend such a pretty burst of color to projects!

As a demonstrator, I was able to order a selection of the new products from the 2019 Occasions and Sale-A-Bration catalogs during OnStage. I almost ordered almost everything! The one thing I didn't order, I will order in January. My OnStage pre-order should arrive by the end of the day on Thursday. I will have more stampin' goodies to show you on Friday!

Thanks for stopping by!
