Introducing the Stamparatus

Hi all!

Sorry it's been a while since my last post.  There's been a lot going on but I'm back today to introduce an amazing new stamp placement tool from Stampin' Up!.

It's called the Stamparatus and it looks amazing!  I can't wait to get my hands on one.


The Stamparatus is completely different to any other stamp positioning tool out there and will change the way you stamp.  It will allow you to:

  •  mass produce easily, 
  • consistently stamp crisp, clean images,
  • easily create 2-step, 3-step, and 4-step stamped images using reversible plate
  • make fewer mistakes, saving time and money.

Would you like more details?
  • Compatible with Stampin’ Up!’s red rubber and photopolymer stamps,
  • Foam mat to use with photopolymer stamps
  • Rulers and gridlines for quick measuring
  • 2 open sides so you can stamp on larger paper
  • 2 reversible plates: a total of 4 surfaces to work with
  • 2 magnets to hold the paper in place
  • Magnet storage areas
  • All this for only $85!



You will be able to reserve a Stamparatus from 17 November, ready for shipping around 1 February 2018, but you will need to get in quick as they only have a limited number available. Please note that you will not be charged until the Stamparatus is shipped.

If you miss out, don't worry as there will be 2 more opportunities to reserve a Stamparatus before it is released in next years Annual Catalogue.

You will need a credit card, and if you do not have an online account you will need to create one.  If you would like to select me as your Demonstrator, my details are:

Customer Stamparatus Launch Q & A

Q: How do I reserve my Stamparatus?
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 finalise 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: Will I be able to update my address and credit card information when I open my shopping bag to complete my order?  
A: Yes. 

Q: What if I change my mind and want to cancel my reservation?  
A: You can cancel your reservation at any time. To cancel, please see the How to Reserve Your Stamparatus Tutorial for Customers PDF.

Q: Will the tool be available in the 2018–2019 annual catalogue? 
A: Yes. Once the annual catalogue ordering period begins, you will be able to order the Stamparatus as you would any other product. Reservations will no longer be required, and there will be no limit on the number of tools you can order. 

Q: Once the Stamparatus has been added to my shopping cart, how long will it stay there?

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
