New: Totally CLEAR Stamps !!!

 Are you ready?  (Drum roll please!)
Stampin' Up has searched long and hard for just the right material to be able to introduce completely clear stamping. At last, they are excited to announce that we now have photopolymer stamps, which will be an addition to our wood-mount and clear-mount stamp line and will appeal to all types of stampers. The top-quality photopolymer has just enough give to create a perfectly stamped image every time and with the introduction of our firm-foam pads, they're meant for each other! Photopolymer stamps will also be unique, fun designs that will inspire you and provide more versatile options you may not see in our traditional wood- and clear-mount stamp options.
What makes them so great?
  • They're entirely transparent for perfect placement every time!
  • They are durable. The photopolymer material is designed to last.
  • Can you say sticky? (Don't worry; in a good way.) These stamps stick amazingly well to our clear blocks.
  • They're age tested. They won't yellow or cloud up over time.
  • They use FDA, food-safe material. How far can you stretch your stamping creativity?
  • We could go on, but we'll let you try them for yourself.
They are clearly a great choice.

 #132956   ---  Designer Typeset Photopolymer Stamp Set - $13.95 
  • Photopolymer stamps will be offered on a trial basis. Based on popularity, there is hope to release more photopolymer stamp sets over the coming months. At this time there aren't plans to offer a line of photopolymer sets as expansive as our wood-mount and clear-mount lines.
  • Available on all order types beginning March 1, 2013.
  • Not available in wood-mount or clear-mount.
  • All photopolymer will be packaged in cello bag w/insert, but don't forget you can store them in our clear cases.


  • I'll be ordering mine with this month's class order, how about you?!
