Stampin’ UP! has decided to discontinue the cling (Red Rubber) stamp line due to key raw materials becoming increasingly difficult to source, with some no longer being manufactured at all. They will continue to offer a wide range of photopolymer stamps to support various artistic styles and techniques.
This change will begin this fall starting in November and everything will be completed by April of 2026.
Stampin’ Write Markers Stampin’ UP! has also decided to discontinue Stampin’ Write Markers. With the growing popularity of Stampin’ Blends, they have seen a steady decline in sales of Stampin’ Write Markers. One of the primary techniques unique to Stampin’ Write Markers is coloring directly on cling stamps or Red Rubber Stamps—a technique that will become less relevant as they transition away from cling. This change will start immediately. Markers still available will be in the last chance category until they are gone.
There is a new packaging coming for stamps and dies.
Because they will be phasing out cling stamps new slimmer packaging will be introduced by November. Stamps and dies will come in the same sized package envelopes. You will still be able to get stamp cases for now.
Dates to watch for in August and September
The In Color Sale will continue through the end of August.
There are three new kits available in the Kits Collection for August

This was such a fun project. So Pretty and so easy. Making several cards at once can be so useful, you could even leave them blank, to have on hand to make whatever card you need in a quick minute for whatever you need at the time. The stamping is so9 random and you can use any number of color combinations. I am going to try to find other versions of this technique to have some quick ready made cards on hand. I think you could even use these quarter sheets in scrapbooking think about putting opposite corners on a page with pictures and or sayings.
I love how cheery these cards are as well. I think we could make fall cards and Christmas cards in a jiffy.

I am in love with this stamp and die set! I love anything with curves and this one is no exception. The Fancy Flora paper is so pretty there are several from this pack that would make just lovely cards. This one I did set up on my Stamparatus, that big long stamp is a challenge to get a consistent uniform color stamped. I did need a couple of tries to get it right, it is not difficult, but so large without the Stamparatus could be troublesome. I love the way the card came out and I can see doing this one in all kinds of the patterns from Fancy Flora paper.

This is my first opportunity to work with the Around The Bend Bundle. I am pretty happy with the card and tickled that they can be made in any number of colors. I am looking forward to working further with this bundle, there are so many options. I will be using this card for my swaps for the month of April. I think people will be happy with the cards. The stamp set that I used for this is from the Tropical Leaf Photopolymer Set from the Online Essential selection. Because it is a photopolymer stamp it can easily be bent to fit the curvature of the die cut design. Any photopolymer stamp can be bent in the same way to get a similar look.
