NEW Envelope Punch Board Available NOW!!!

Use this creativity-boosting tool to create anything from itty bitty to long and skinny envelopes!

 

Item	Description	Price
133774	Envelope Punch Board	$19.95

• It creates totally customizable envelopes in up to 66 different sizes (not to mention a million different color and pattern options depending on the paper you want to use). Even tried and true envelope sizes will only take you moments to create!
• It's super easy to use; it will go over as a huge wow when you demonstrate it at your events and your customers see it in action. It looks intimidating at first glance, but when they see that all you have to do is measure for the first punch and from there you just turn and score they'll go crazy (in a good way).
• It's small and lightweight; this makes it easy for you to take it to your events and show it. It's also a great selling point when you show your customers how it's super portable and easy to store. It's small and light enough that they could use it while watching a soccer match, at a park, at a friend's for craft night-anywhere.
• It even has a slick scoring tool as well as a punch that lets you create rounded cornerson your envelopes.
• It's easy to keep it all together; the stylus storage compartment and two punches are designed into the tool so you don't have a bunch of little pieces to keep track of (even the instructions are printed right on the tool so you won't lose them!).
• The price is terrific-especially for a tool that does so much!
• It will be in next year's annual catalog, so it's here to stay.

Even better, along with some great classic images, each "Best of" set will also include a never-before-seen image!

Check back here every month to download a flyer for a new Best of stamp set, and be sure to share it with your customers.

Some things to remember:

• All Best of stamp sets will include 3-5 images, including a never-before seen image, and will be priced at $14.95.
• While we are releasing just one Best of stamp set per month (with a new theme each month), all of the Best of sets will be available until March 31, 2014.
• A new flyer will be released every month for each new Best of set.
• All Best of stamp sets are available in Clear-Mount only.

While we are releasing just one Best of stamp set per month, all of the Best of sets will be available until March 31, 2014.

Thinlits Details

Available August 1, 2013 There are some products you just have to see in action before you realize how much you need them, right? This is one of them! Plan to feature these dies in your events and share the video. When your customers see what they can do, they will place their orders. These new card dies come with extra die pieces that have versatile designs, so you can use them on other projects, not just flip cards. (The Circle Card Thinlits Die comes with 10 total pieces; the Label Card Thinlits Die comes with nine total pieces.) With the number of dies you're getting, plus the die that creates the card itself, the price is a great value-especially to create an interactive card! Promote mass production of these impressive "flip" cards. They would make great announcements, invitations, or Christmas cards. You can even help your customers select all the supplies they will need to create their cards. These Thinlits Card Dies will be available at least through the 2013-2014 catalog year, so you can feel confident investing in them and promoting them for many months to come.   The main shape in the cards (circle and label) can work with a lot of our stamp images so you can create tons of different kinds of cards using many different stamp sets. Here are just a few suggestions to get you started: Label Card Thinlits Die (item 133479): Happy Day Stamp Set (item 130294 W item 130297 C) Circle Card Thinlits Die (item 133480): Worth the Wait Stamp (item 131094 W) Five-Way Flower Stamp (item 131088 W) Both card dies pair well with: Oh, Hello Stamp Set (item 131931 W item 130733 C) Yippee-Skippee! Stamp Set (item 131341 W item 131344 C) Really Good Greetings Stamp Set (item 130330 W item 130333 C) Regarding Dahlias Stamp Set (item 130324 W item 130327 C) These dies also work well with our new magnetic platform (item 130658) so you can place the dies exactly where you want them!

Bombs Away! Birthday Photopolymer set

Check it out!! 
Stampin' Up! has another great photopolymer stamp set available called Bombs Away Birthday! They are completely clear which makes stamping super easy!

We've searched long and hard for just the right material to be able to introduce completely clear stamping. And we've found it. We're excited to announce that we now have wood-mount, clear-mount AND photopolymer stamps! The new photopolymer will be an addition to our stamp line and will appeal to all types of stampers. Our top-quality photopolymer has just enough give to create a perfectly stamped image every time and with the introduction of our firm-foam pads, let's just say they're meant for each other! Photopolymer stamps will also be unique, fun designs that will inspire you and provide more versatile options you may not see in our traditional wood- and clear-mount stamp options. 

What makes them so great?

• They're entirely transparent for perfect placement every time! 
• They are durable. The photopolymer material is designed to last. 
• Can you say sticky? (Don't worry; in a good way.) These stamps stick amazingly well to our clear blocks.
• They're age tested. They won't yellow or cloud up over time. 
• We could go on, but we'll let you try them for yourself.
