Introducing the Stamparatus!

Hello my crafty friends,

As most of you know I LOVE my Misti but NOW there is something new that is by far the BEST!
 
It’s big news when something breaks the mold and changes everything. The Stamparatus will change the way you stamp, and before long, you’ll wonder how you crafted without it! 
Why do YOU need one? You’ll fall in love with stamping all over again when you learn everything you can do with it!
  • Make multiples with ease
  • Consistently stamp crisp, clean images
  • If you want a darker impression, apply more ink and restamp—no need to start over
  • Make fewer mistakes, saving time and money
  • Easily create 2-step, 3-step, and 4-step stamped images using reversible plates
  • Develop new and specialized stamping techniques with adjustable stamping plates and precision placement
  • Compatible with Stampin’ Up!’s red rubber and photopolymer stamp
  • Foam mat to use with photopolymer stamps
  • Rulers and gridlines for quick measuring
  • 2 open sides so you can stamp on larger paper
  • 2 reversible plates: a total of 4 surfaces to work with
  • 2 magnets to hold the paper in place
  • Magnet storage areas
  • Retail Price–$65.00 CDN


With the launch of this tool, we’re trying something different: testing a new reservation system. It acts like a true pre-order: you reserve your spot and we guarantee shipment as soon as the product arrives in our warehouse. 

Demonstrators and customers will place reservations and receive their product at the same time. This system will allow us to get the product to market as soon as possible while avoiding backorders and efficiently managing inventory.

The global launch will feature three (3) reservation windows. For each window, please note the following:
  • Reservation quantities are while supplies last.
  • Limit is 1 tool per customer per reservation window.
  • You may participate in multiple reservation windows.
  • In order to reserve your Stamparatus, you are required to provide your credit card information.
  • Credit cards will not be charged until the Stamparatus ships from our facility. When you close your order, be sure to verify that your credit card and shipping information is correct.
  • Click here for - How to Reserve Your Stamparatus Tutorial for Customers


RESERVE NOW for the November 16-30, 2017 reservation window with delivery on or around February 1, 2018. The reservation window opens at 2:00 PM (MT) on November 16. 
While supplies last.



If I can give you just a little inspiration, where you can look at one of my cards and think I can do that, or I could tweak that and put my own spin on it, then I am achieving what I have set out to do!

This Little Piggy ...

Hello my crafty friends,

Seems like  forever since I posted anything, I am slowly getting my crafty mojo back.  I have had to make a few cards for family or friends in the last week or so and thought i would post a couple.

Pretty soon I will be making my christmas cards along with a few other types, so stay tuned.


For today, I thought I would show a card I made the other day using the "This Little Piggy" Stamp Set from Stampin Up!



I just love these Little Pigs!

I have deeply appreciated your messages of encouragement and prayers and wanted to tell you thank you so much for that. Also give you a heads up that you'll start to receive more news from me over the next little while.
I have been attempting a few new adventures in 2017 and will post more on that as the weeks go by.

Facebook Mystery Hostess Party

Hello my crafty peeps!

Last Saturday January 28th I held a Virtual Sale-a-Bration Party, with a Mystery Hostess! Wow, the Hostess received $101.00 in Stampin' Up! rewards, based on the orders placed using the code.  I must say the party was a success with everyone receiving some form of prize and anyone who placed a qualifying order also received a 6"x6" stack of a current Stampin' Up! Designer Series Paper (DSP).  

I broke out the new stamp set,  "Hey Chick"… which is also one of the FREE sets you can get for Sale-A-Bration!  I LOVE the chickens and can’t believe I haven’t used it before now!

And here is my card!  Don’t you love the colors?

Here are the details:
  • The base is 4-1/4" x 11" Very Vanilla cardstock, folded in half.
  • The base front is embossed with the chicken wire folder from Cuttlebug.
  • The Old Olive cardstock was trimmed to 1/2" x 5-1/2" strips, then die cut with the Lawn Fawn Grassy Border die.
  • A 2 1/2 x 3 1/2 panel of Whisper White was stamped with the Chicken images from Hey Chick stamp set with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink.  It was colored with Promarkers Alcohol Markers.  Then fussy cut and placed between and above the grass with Stampin’ Dimensionals. 
  • Hey Chick sentiment was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black on scrap Whisper White and die cut with a chat bubble die I had laying around.  I inked the edges and then placed on the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • Finally, I stamped the inside with the little your'e a good egg stamp.

Hope you like it!

Our next Facebook Party will be beginning of June for the release of the 2017-2018 Annual Catalogue.  But if you wish to host your own party, contact me at kstallman55@gmail.com


If I can give you just a little inspiration, where you can look at one of my cards and think I can do that, or I could tweak that and put my own spin on it, then I am achieving what I have set out to do!
