Last Chance to Reserve Your Stamparatus

The results are in! The first Stamparatus reservation window reached its maximum number of reservations in just 15 minutes, which provided Stampin' Up! with some very important information: You LOVE this new stamping tool! Stampin' Up! couldn’t be more thrilled; in fact, the response was so amazing that they’ve decided to make some important adjustments to the reservation process.

The FINAL reservation window will open at 2:00 PM (MT) on December 5


Click HERE if you missed any of the Stamparatus details that I shared last week.


As was previously announced, the second reservation window will remain open from December 5–30; however, during this reservation period Stampin' Up! will take as many orders as they receive (yay!) and not close the window until December 30. So whether the total number of reservations is 100 or 100,000, the window will stay open!

PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING CHANGES:
  • Beginning March 19, Stampin' Up! will ship Stamparatuses in the order the reservations were received (first in, first out) and continue through the next few months and beyond as product arrives in their warehouse. Because shipment dates are based on manufacturing lead times, not all of the reservations made during the December 5–30 window will ship on March 19 (as was previously announced).
  • In order to accommodate demand, limits have changed as follows: one reservation per customer and one per demonstrator.
  • Because Stampin' Up! is not limiting the maximum number of reservations for the second window, they will not offer a third window. This is the last chance for you to reserve a Stamparatus before it becomes available in the 2018-2019 annual catalog.

PLEASE NOTE WHAT HAS NOT CHANGED:
  • If you reserved more than one stamping tool during the first reservation period, that number will not change; you will still receive the same number you reserved.
  • If you reserved one or more stamping tool(s) during the first reservation period, you may still order during the second window.
  • The reservation window will open at 2:00 PM (MT) on December 5.

HOW TO RESERVE YOUR STAMPARATUS

  2. When you're ready, reserve your Stamparatus HERE.

Please contact me right away if you have questions about the Stamparatus or how to reserve yours.

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. For step-by-step instructions, please see the How to Reserve Your Stamparatus Tutorial for Customers.

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.

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: Will the available-to-ship dates be the same for all markets?
A: Yes.

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?
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 order 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 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: Once the Stamparatus has been 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.

A: Yes.


Q: How many stamp placement tools can I reserve per reservation window?
A: For customers, there is a limit of 1 per reservation window.

Q: How did we come up with the name Stamparatus?
A: We landed on an innovative name by combining two words that speak to the end use of the tool as well as Stampin’ Up! branding.

Stamp: To impress a pattern or mark (especially an official one) 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

Painted Harvest

For today's project I used the Painted Harvest Bundle. I cannot bring myself to put it down since using it to design this month's Class in the Mail. It really is a must have! I know, I say that a lot, but it's always true! Stampin' Up! sure knows how to design some absolutely gorgeous stamps, that's for sure!

The Painted Harvest Bundle will help you get a jump on your Fall projects because nothing says Fall better than sunflowers! I used non-traditional colors for the sunflower in order to show the versatility of the stamp set. The possibilities are limited only by your creativity. If you haven't already added this fabulous bundle to your craft room, what are you waiting for? Order it today!

Check out today's project and be inspired to transform paper into a little work of art.


Do you want to learn how to make more projects like this one? And have a chance to earn free products? All while having fun hanging out with your girlfriends? Ask me how you can host your very own Stampin' Up! Party!
