Get Ready To Be Amazed

Introducing the Stampin' Up! Stamparatus



This past week, Stampin' Up! introduced a new tool called the Stamparatus.  And you're going to NEED it.  The Stamparatus will change the way you stamp, and once you have it, you will wonder how you every crafted without it. 

Here's what you can do with it:
  • Make multiple stamped images 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
Check out this You Tube Video that shows you exactly how the Stamparatus works:

If you're like me, you probably have a lot of questions now that you have watched the video and you see the information about reserving your Stamparatus.  Here are the answers to some of the commonly asked questions.  However, if you don't see the answer you are looking for here, please feel free to contact me.

Q:  What if I do not have a Stampin' Up! customer account?
A:  In order to reserve a Stamparatus, you must have a customer account.  To create one, click Create Account on the online store.
 
Q:  Why does it take so long for the Stamparatus to ship?
A:  We will place an order with the manufacturer based on how many reservations are made during any given reservation window.  Shipping dates depend on how long it takes the order to arrive in our warehouse after the tools have been manufactured.
 
Q:  Am I billed at the time I reserve the Stamparatus?
A:  No.  However, a credit card is required to reserve the product.
 
Q:  When will I be charged for the Stamparatus?
A:  When inventory arrives in the warehouse, we will add your reservation to a shopping cart.  We will then send you an email notifying you that your Stamparatus is ready.  Once you finalize payment and close your order, the system will charge your credit card
 
Q:  Will I be able to add other products to my Stamparatus reservation?
A:  No.  However, once your reservation is transferred to your shopping card, you wil then be able to add other items to your order.  Important note:  Please do not delete the Stamparatus from your order.  We will not be able to add it back and you will lose your reservation.

A:  Yes
 
Q.  What if I change my mind and want to cancel my reservation?
A:  You can cancel your reservation at any time
 
Q:  Will this tool be available in the 2018-2019 Annual Catalog?

Q:  Once the stamparatus is added to my shopping cart, how long will it stay there?
A:  Indefinitely.  As with all products, it will be subject to temporary interruptions in availability depending on demand.
 
Q:  How many stamp placement tools can I order per reservation?
A:  For customers, there is a limit of 1 per reservation window
 
Q:  How did Stampin' Up! come up with the name Stamparatus?
A:  We combined two words that speak to the end use of the tool as well as Stampin' Up! branding.
 
Stamp:  To impress a pattern or mark on a surface, object, or document using an engraved or inked block or die or other instrument.
 
Apparatus:  The technical equipment or machinery needed for a particular activity or purpose
 
Stamp + Apparatus = Stamparatus
 
Whew!  That's a lot of information.  If you have further questions, please feel free to contact me.
