So yesterday Stampin' Up! announced one of the most exciting new products I've seen for years. This has been several years in the making (and I was lucky enough to be involved in the project team working to brainstorm product ideas from which the Stamparatus was born!). This is such a great new positioning tool!
To get an idea of what the tool does check out this video from Stampin' Up! Head Office:
The Stamparatus will change the way you stamp, and before long, you’ll wonder how you ever crafted without it!
So, 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 specialised stamping techniques with adjustable stamping plates and precision placement

This tool is so brand new it is actually going to be made to order. So for the first time Stampin' Up! are offering 'reservation windows'. The first of which opens on November 16th until the 30th November (with delivery on or around 1 February 2018). The reservation window opens at 9:00 p.m. (GMT) on 16 November and you can reserve your fab new Stamparatus by clicking here!
