I got to play with my Christmas Gleaming Bundle with a Gleaming Ornaments Punch Pack today!
More gorgeous metallic accents in the in the Brightly Gleaming Designer Series Paper coming in the Holiday Catalog on Sept. 4th – this time it’s COPPER!
I used my Stamparatus to stamp my Deck the Halls in a straight and centered row:)
I did pull out one of my favorite retired Stampin’ Up Pine Boughs Embossing Folder.
I think it gave a great texture element to the CAS card.
I carried over the copper metallic element into the inside by stamping the holly image and sentiment with the Delicata Celestial Copper Ink Pad.
I must say, this ink stamped so beautifully and a photo does not do it justice! I was sure to let it dry for about 8-10 minutes so it would not smudge. I bet a quick heat set will be great, too.
Grab a cup of something and digest all the details
on the new STAMPARATUS!
The cost of the tool will be $49 (US) and as you can see from the video… it really helps with perfect alignment and stamping multiples!

On November 16th, I’ll post again with a link to reserve one if you want it!
SU is requiring a credit card to reserve but it will NOT be charged until it ships. (see Q&A below)

Here’s a little Q&A that might be helpful:
Q: How do I reserve my Stamparatus during one of the reserve periods?
A: Normally you order Stampin’ Up! products through the online store; in this case, you will click the “RESERVE” link on the Stamparatus page which will take you to the reservation page.
Q: What if I do not have a Stampin’ Up! customer account?
A: To reserve a Stamparatus, you must have a customer account. To create one, click Create Account on the online store. OR just let me know you want one and with what credit card you want to hold it on. It will not take the money or hold the money from your account. It’s like a hotel reservation. You won’t be charged til it ships.
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 my Stamparatus?
A: No. However, a credit card is required to reserve the product.
Q: When will I be charged for the Stamparatus?

Q: Will I be able to add other products to my Stamparatus reservation?
A: No. However, once your reservation is transferred to your shopping cart, you will 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.
Q: Will I be able to update my address and credit card information when I open my shopping bag to complete my order?
