We’re Crafting at Home, Too!

Even Stampendous is staying home. We have had to close our warehouse to keep everyone in California safer. But you can still

We can’t ship products from our warehouse, but lots of places are still shipping your favorite Stampendous products so you can craft at home. We’ll continue to share projects with you featuring our latest products.
If you’ve won a prize from us, we’ll ship it to you as soon as we return to our offices.

Our website orders are filled by independent craft stores across the country. If no store has your products, you can still order, but your order will be delayed until we return to the office. If your store has a great stock of Stampendous products and you want to fulfill our website orders, too, let us know and we’ll get you set up! You can email us at submissions@stampendous.com for assistance with that.

Check out our newest products at these amazing vendors. If you have a store or online store that carries Stampendous, and you’re offering shipping, delivery, or curbside service, let us know so we can include you on this list! We have seen so many creative store solutions to the current situation. Be sure you contact any store before heading over in case their situation has changed.

Today is National Love Your Pet Day! And Stampendous loves pets. We have wonderful pets we celebrate every day. Do you have a pet? Tell us about your furry family in the comments below for your chance to win your choice of our Dog Kisses Perfectly Clear Stamps or our Kitten Hugs Cling Stamp Set. Our Official Contest Rules always apply, and you must have a U.S. Mailing Address to win.

Our January 2020 Catalog is full of great pet-friendly stamps to help you celebrate your pet! You can click on the picture below to see each product on our website.

Our new Dog Kisses Perfectly Clear Stamps Set features several breeds of dogs, and you can color them to represent many, many more.

The card on the banner above was created in-house by Terry Braddock. It’s so fun and friendly! And Design Team Member Alison Heikkila created this awesome shaker card using the Dog Kisses set and a Sparkle Blend from Doodles Paper Playground. Woof!!

Our Kitten Hugs Cling Rubber Stamp Set  has several kittens ready to play with you and each other. You can color them in so many ways to look just like your kitties.

This set also includes a darling, paw stencil that you can use for backgrounds and more. Here we used it with our Aqua Embossing Powder, so sweet!

Our own Fran Seiford had so much fun coloring these sweet kitties! You can tell she’s really a “cat person”!!

The Kitty Kiss stamp, available wood mounted or in cling rubber, features both a cute puppy and and adorable kitten. So much sweetness. This terrific card is another one on our Store Display Board featuring all our new animals. You can find it, and all the other products on the board, at your favorite stamping and scrapbooking store where they can give you a full color instruction sheet for these cards and more.

All of the projects on this board also feature Cottonball White Fun Flock. This awesome product helps you make your pets fuzzy and soft to the touch… send people cards they can actually pet! This is ideal for animal lovers who can’t have their own fur friends. The flock gives them the softness of a pet without the allergies!

Lucky Winners, please email us at submissions@stampendous.com with your U.S. mailing addresses and we’ll get your little trip to Paris out to you right away! Thanks for playing along with us!

Beautiful Paris

The beauty of Paris is famed the world over. Walking her charming streets is the one place in Europe that looks exactly how you’ve always imagined it would look. Small sidewalk cafes, the stunning Tour d’Eiffel, the Champs Elysees! It’s all incredible and awe inspiring. What would you MOST like to see in the City of Lights? We’d love to hear about your favorite Paris memory or dream. We’re giving away three sets of this beautiful stamp set and matching cutting dies this week!  If you missed the chance to comment on Monday, be sure to do so as well as today. Our Official Contest Rules are always HERE.

We sent our wonderful Paris Bonjour set and the matching dies to the amazing Vicky Papaioannou and she worked her magic, as usual. We just love how she combines products to create a stunning layout. We know you’ll love her little trip to Paris. She also included our new Paris Map 6″X6″ Background Stamp. It’s such a versatile background for any travel-themed creations. Please leave her some love! These gifted artists thrive on your positive comments!

Meanwhile, back home our Design Team has some wonderful things to share using the Paris set, and we have a terrific post from Sue Drees of the House-Mouse Design Team joining us! Be sure to leave some love for all of them!
