These fantastic backgrounds are so perfectly sized and versatile that you’ll use them over and over again on dozens of projects. Deeply etched, Cling Rubber images with permanent indexing on top, these stamp sets come with their own acrylic handle for a terrific value. Use them to stamp, emboss, and mold right on your Stack Art projects!

As you become more familiar with these projects, the more intricate fun can begin. We’re making lots of videos to help you use your Stack Art products in tons of unique and innovative ways. You’ll find Stack Art this Spring in select JoAnn Fabric and Crafts Stores, but it’s available now through your local stamping or scrapbooking store or on the Stampendous website.

Our Design Team have been playing with StackArt, and we have a whole week of their inspiration to share with you this week. Check out who is sharing today:

Hop In and “Sea” What’s New! – Color Fragments Blog Hop

This Saturday the Stampendous team has something extra special planned for you…we have combined our regular monthly challenge with a blog hop showcasing some of the great new products released at CHA last month!  Pull up a chair, grab a warm beverage and yummy snack, and get ready to be wowed!

We’ve asked our Design Team to use our new Color Fragments for this Blog Hop, creating a card, scrapbook page, or out of the box project with these little bits of pure color. Color Fragments can be applied with any adhesive, mixed with resins, paints, clays, or just used around the house in plants, fish bowls, candles, soaps, any craft you care to tackle. They are non-toxic, don’t melt at normal embossing temperatures, and you can easily crush them if you desire smaller flakes or different shapes. You’ll love our five spring colors, and you’ll adore what our team has done with them.  Now, check out the whole list of fabulousness for today:

and a VERY special guest designer for this Blog Hop
