Clear Mount Stamps

 

 

Over the past few years, there has been enormous demand from demonstrators and customers alike for a line of repositionable clear-mount rubber stamps. Well, you asked for it, and now you have it! Starting with stamps in the 2010 Occasions Mini Catalog and the 2010 Sale-A-Bration Brochure, Stampin' Up! now offers our exclusive stamp art in both traditional wood-mount, and the new clear-mount option.

Our new clear-mount rubber stamps are the result of extensive research with the intent to maintain the very best image quality in the stamping industry, while at the same time offering the ease-of-use and storability inherent in repositionable clear-mount rubber stamps.

Clear-Mount Rubber Stamp Features

  • Nine different sizes of clear blocks available individually or as a discounted bundle.

  • Blocks have ergonomic grooves on all four sides for easy grip and traditional wood-mount feel.

  • Stamps and blocks are durable and easy to clean with your Stampin' Scrub and Stampin' Mist.

  • Optional image labels on stamp backs let you decide if you want to see the image through the block or not.

  • Tight die-cutting for easy image positioning.

  • Large clear blocks can be used to create collages or spell words with alphabet sets.

  • Stamps store easily in standard, DVD-type cases with artwork on front and spine, making organization easy.


 

New Punch Design

 

Starting with the new 2010 Occasions Mini Catalog and continuing with all new punch designs going forward, Stampin' Up! has adopted a new body style for our punches!

A few features of the new punch style:

  • Low-profile, rectangular punch body allows for easier stacking and storing

  • Punches lock shut for easier storage and transport

  • Dual labels on top and end allow for easy identification and selection when stored

  • Available in three sizes: small, medium, and extra-large

  • New punches allow for larger punched images and more intricate designs while providing greater ease of use.

    • Extra -large punch images also allow for two-step designs like the Two-Step Bird punch in the Occasions Mini Catalog

  • Corner punches allow you to punch a corner design along the inside edges of a page, not just corners

  • larger, whole-hand handle design provides better leverage for easier use

  • Available in an exclusive Stampin' Up! color

Part of Stampin' Up!'s commitment to providing demonstrators and customers with the very best crafting tools includes the belief in what we call continuous improvement. Essentially what this means is that even if something works very well, but we see a chance to improve it, we will work to make it even better. While new punch designs will be in the new body style, existing designs will remain in the existing body style for now.


Simply Adorned

Our Simply Adorned line beautifully combines the best of two worlds: stamping and jewelry! We designed our Simply Adorned charms to hold a creation you design yourself, making your jewelry truly unique.

Simply Adorned charms are lockets--they open up so you can insert your custom stamped image. The Charming stamp set, along with Rub-Ons, glitter, ribbons, and other embellishments, can help you create your unique charm insert. And don't forget that you can embellish the chains with ribbon, felt flowers . . . the possibilities are endless! The frame surrounds tempered beveled glass on the front and flat glass on the back. Because there's glass on both sides of the charm, you can display an image on one side or both. You can create a custom heirloom piece that you'll never want to change, or you can swap artwork in and out, depending on your mood and your wardrobe.

And although we designed Simply Adorned charms to be jewelry, they also make delightful key chains or Christmas tree ornaments. Insert a stamped image or photo of your loved ones, tie a ribbon through the clasp, and you're done!

Customers--paper-crafters and noncrafters alike--will love the look of Simply Adorned and appreciate how easy it is to create custom jewelry. When you wear your own Simply Adorned necklace with artwork you created yourself, be prepared for questions about where you got it!

Our Simply Adorned line includes nickel-plated charms in three sizes and anodized stainless steel chains in two lengths.

FAQs

Q: What size are the charms?

A: The charms are available in three different sizes: 1" x 1", 1" x 1-1/4", and 1-1/2" x 2". The size listed refers to the charm insert; the metal frame around the insert is slightly larger. You can use the included insert as a template to create the perfect-sized piece of artwork for your frame. It is important that your insert matches the insert template exactly. The hinge on your charm can break if your insert is too large and overlaps onto the frame.

Q: Is the toggle clasp meant to be worn in the front or the back?

A: Our stainless steel chain features a toggle clasp and includes an exclusive Stampin' Up! charm identifier. The beautiful leaf charm is designed to be worn on the front to enhance the overall design of the necklace, or worn on the back for a simpler look.

Q: What materials are used to make Simply Adorned jewelry?

A: The charms are nickel-plated zinc alloy with tempered beveled glass on the front, and tempered flat glass in the back. The chains are anodized stainless steel with a nickel-plated zinc alloy charm and toggle.

Q: How do I clean my charm?

A: Use clean water and a cotton applicator to clean the jewelry surface. Do not use alcohol or other chemicals to clean your jewelry as they will damage the finish.

Q: How many layers can I fit inside the charm?

A: The number of layers that fit inside each charm depends on the type of materials used. The space in the charm is 2 mm; as card stock, Designer Series paper, ribbon, and adhesives all differ in thickness, it is difficult to specify the number of layers that will fit inside. It is important to remember that you can break the hinge on your charm if your inserts are too thick. Never force the charm closed. If the charm does not close easily, remove a layer or two from your insert and try again.

Q: How is the jewelry packaged?

A: Each piece comes in a Chocolate Chip box (box for charms: 3-1/4" x 2-1/2" x 1"; box for chains: 9-1/2" x 2-1/2" x 1").

Everything Must Go!!!!

I have to clean out my retired sets from my stamp room.  These would make great Christmas gifts!! If they are marked (UM) that means they are brand new, never used, Never Mounted. All stamps, excluding Backgrounds, come with clamshells.  Pictures can bee seen on the Retired Store page (in navigation bar above)  I have greatly reduced these sets in hopes that I can move them to a loving home.  The prices in the store are as usual.  You must be on my Newsletter mailing list to get these prices.  These sets will be set out on the December Stamp Night.

Any purchase of $30 will get 3 yards of retired SU Ribbon (1 yard each of 3 different ribbons of my choice)  An extra yard will be included for every $10 spent after that.

If you are local I will deliver them to you.  If you are a distant customer I will ship them to you at cost.  Paypal, Checks and Cash accepted as payment.
