Stampin’ Up! Die Cutting & Embossing Product Line Changes return to top of page

Stampin’ Up! is transitioning to a new manufacturer for their dies and embossing folders! One of the significant factors in this decision is that instead of working with a supplier who works with a manufacturer, Stampin' Up! will work directly with the manufacturer. This means that they will work directly with the factories who manufacture their dies and embossing folders instead of working with another company who then works with different factories. This gives them greater control and potential in the manufacturing process. This is a great move and I'm so excited about it! Let's take a look at how this transition will unfold: Through June 3, 2019 Die and Folder Supply: While Supplies Last and Interruptions Inventory on some retiring dies may be depleted before the end of the 2019 occasions and 2018–2019 annual catalog sales period; Stampin’ Up! will not replenish inventory on any retiring dies and folders that sell out. Inventory on some dies and folders carrying over into the 2019–2020 catalog may be depleted; if this happens, they may go on backorder or may not be available to order until they have replenished the inventory. April 15–June 3, 2019 Retiring List Our old style die-cutting embossing machine will be on the retiring list while supplies last. This also includes related products such as plates and platforms. Dies and embossing folders included on the retiring list will not be offered in the new catalog in any format. Dies and standard embossing folders NOT included on the retiring list will be carried over into the 2019–2020 annual catalog. We’ll use up our current inventory before starting to ship new style dies, so even if you place an order in 2020, you might receive an old style die or folder.* These are the high-quality products we currently offer, so we’re confident that you’ll be happy with their performance. Beginning June 4, 2019 2019–2020 Annual Catalog All new dies and embossing folders (denoted with a “New” icon in the catalog) will be produced by our new supplier and made in the new style with a different and high-quality product design. For carryover dies and non-3D embossing folders, we’ll use up our current inventory before starting to ship new style dies, so even if you place an order in 2020, you might receive an old style die or folder.* These are the high-quality products we currently offer, so we’re confident you’ll be happy with their performance. All new and carryover 3D embossing folders will be produced by our new supplier and made in the new style with a different and high-quality product design. Carryover 3D embossing folders (previously named Dynamic) will not be available to order beginning with the catalog launch but we’re in process on getting these ready to go and they’ll be available as soon as possible. We’ll let you know when they are. No die-cutting & embossing machine will be available for purchase from Stampin’ Up! in the 2019–2020 annual catalog. HIGHLIGHTS: NEW STYLE DIES AND EMBOSSING FOLDERS Since Stampin’ Up! is using a new supplier for their dies and embossing folders, they’ll be manufactured differently, which means the way you use them will be a little different. A few of the changes between the old style and new style products are listed below. In the future, Stampin’ Up! will also provide videos to show how to craft with the new style dies and embossing folders and better showcase the features described below. Here are some of the changes you’ll notice with our new style dies and embossing folders: The new style open dies (those that coordinate with stamps) use a high quality metal that’s thinner than before but still as strong and durable. The new style dies have an added lip to the inside of the blades. On old style dies, when you place an open die (dies that coordinate with stamps) over a stamped image, a small border of cardstock is visible around the stamped image. With new style dies, the die hugs the edge of the stamped image. Instead of aligning the die to the space around the stamped image, you will align it to the edges of the stamped image. When the image is cut, there will still be a cardstock border around the image. OLD STYLE ALIGNMENT NEW STYLE ALIGNMENT If you have questions about Stampin’ Up!
