Coffee Lovers Blog Hop

The Fall/Winter 2020 Coffee Lovers Blog Hop is on with some adorable things for you to win, enjoy, and be inspired by focused on your favorite beverage – Coffee!! (or tea, or cocoa, or yeah, whatever keeps you warm!).

Stampendous is excited to be participating again with this wonderful event and we’re sponsoring them with a prize, of course! So enjoy our coffee/tea inspiration below, then hop on over to the main hop and join in the fun to win lots of great prizes from top manufacturers!

We’re offering a great duo as our prize! Our sweet Thankful Kitty Perfectly Clear Stamps contain so many cute cats holding warm cups of something caffeinated! (or not!). They’re perfect to use on our Gift Card Wallet Die Set to create gift card holders for coffee or other gift cards.

Pinit Canada!

Stampendous is proud to be sponsoring a class in the new Pinit Canada Live event October 23-24 beginning at Noon EST. It’s open to anyone anywhere to enjoy and learn!

The event will have “amazing product demonstrations, techniques, learn about new products and a great way to connect with so many other artists around the world!  The event is inspirational, creative and educational.  It’s so awesome to have a FRONT ROW seat for each of the Pin It Canada presentations!”

The event is FREE to anyone to view on the Pinit Canada Live Facebook pages or on the Pinit Canada YouTube Channel.

Our own Deb Antonick will be teaching a class creating some adorable shakers using some of our newest holiday stamps! These would be ideal as ornaments, package tags, refrigerator magnets, and more. Here’s an example of the sweet projects she’ll be teaching LIVE. We hope you’ll join the fun. Click on the Pinit Canada logo above for all the details!

Gnomes for all Seasons

The new Stampendous Gnomes and Friends Die Set gives you tons of options for creating darling gnomes and their families for the Holiday Season. In a new, exclusive video, Fran shows you how to take these darling gnomes and make Santa, Mrs. Santa, and the elves.

Isn’t that sweet?!! What a creative idea. Here’s another…

We challenged our Design Team to create a Halloween witch using these same gnome dies, and teamie Alison Heikkila really rose to the challenge! She created this darling witch with her sweet black kitty using the Gnomes and Friends Dies with a background using the elements from the Corny Candy Perfectly Clear Stamps Set to create a complete card! Be sure to check out her darling project here –
