Some New changes coming…

August 20, 2025

What’s HappeningWhen

Last Printed Catalogs to Include Cling StampsSeptember–December 2025 Mini Catalog and 2025–2026 Annual Catalog
Last Online Exclusives to Include Cling StampsSeptember 2025 Online Exclusives
Mini Catalog Cling Transition*In December 2025, all cling stamps in the September–December 2025 Mini Catalog will move to Last Chance Products and be available while supplies last. No cling stamps from the mini catalog will carry over.
Annual Catalog Cling Transition*In April 2026, all cling stamps in the 2025–2026 Annual Catalog will move to Last Chance Products and be available while supplies last. No cling stamps from the annual catalog will carry over.
Online Exclusives Cling TransitionCling stamps released in Online Exclusives through September 2025 will be supported—based on demand—until April 2026 at the latest. Some will likely discontinue prior to April.
Final TransitionIn April 2026, all remaining cling stamps across our offering will move to Last Chance Products and be available while supplies last.

As part of our transition away from cling stamps, we’re excited to introduce updated packaging for stamps and dies! Because photopolymer stamps are thinner, we’re able to offer sleeker, slimmer packaging that saves space. Both stamps and dies will now come in the same size and style of packaging, making it easier than ever to store bundles and coordinating products together. The new packaging is similar to our current die packaging—durable, clear plastic envelopes—but with an exciting improvement: Die packaging will now feature printed artwork for quick and easy identification! Stamp packaging will continue to display artwork as well.

What’s HappeningWhen
New Photopolymer Stamps and Dies in New PackagingAll new stamps and dies starting with November Online Exclusives will come in the new packaging.
Transition for Photopolymer Stamps Released Prior to November 2025*Photopolymer stamps released prior to November will transition to the new packaging with a rolling change. During this time, you and your customers may receive some stamps in old packaging and some in new. Transition will vary across markets based on inventory levels.
No Transition for Dies Released Prior to November 2025Dies released prior to November will not transition to the new packaging. They will be sold in their existing packaging until they are discontinued.
No Transition for Cling StampsNo cling stamps will transition to the new packaging.

*Some photopolymer stamps may move to Last Chance Products, sell out, and discontinue prior to transitioning to the new packaging.

Stampin’ UP! Tractor& Co Video Tips

August 13, 2025

Oh, Mr. Tractor, we love you so! We recently bought a farm (with no animals or crops) and my husband and his brother have had fun with the big John Deere- well, if you can call cutting a lot of acres with it? Maybe, they would say it was fun? Anyhow, my grandson LOVES Mr. Tractor! His Grammy from Altoona, sent the cutest T-shirt for him that says “Easily distracted by Tractors”.

I made a video showing some tips for putting together Mr. Tractor.

It’s a fun gatefold to give room for the tractor and the wagon behind. I had to change up the embossed card stock on the sides so the blue panels would match up. They are 2-5/8″ x 4″.

Measurements: Card Base: 4-1/4″ x 11″ scored in 2-3/4″ on each side on the 11″ side, blue panels on gatefolds: 2-5/8″ x 4″ emboss first if you are planning to match them up, Inside white: 4″ x 5-1/4″
