Upcoming Changes to our Cardstock Collection

Stampin' Up!® is proud to be known for providing the best paper crafting products, and works diligently to manage rising costs to remain competitive without sacrificing quality. Raw material and production costs have continued to rise, and this has particularly affected our cardstock given that only a select few mills are qualified to produce the dyed-through cardstock available in our Colour Collections. This means that some changes to our prices, pack sizes, and overall offering will be made in our new Annual Catalogue (from May 6th).
 

What's Changing?

• 8½" x 11" Basic White and Very Vanilla packs will now contain 24 sheets (currently 40).
• 8½" x 11" single-colour packs (24 sheets) and assortments (20 sheets) will cost $20 (currently $15.75).
• Basic White 8½" x 11" Thick Cardstock packs will contain 24 sheets and cost $24.
• 12" x 12" (30.5 x 30.5 cm) single-colour packs (limited range of Basics colours) will now contain 24 sheets (currently 12) and will cost $30.
• 12" x 12" (30.5 x 30.5 cm) assortment packs will be discontinued.
• Basic White Thick Cardstock will be available as 12" x 12" (30.5 x 30.5 cm), priced at $36.

You can shop our cardstock products and more by colour in my online store. If you are planning to stock up to beat the price increases, please order soon as increased demand may cause products to become temporarily unavailable. Items being discontinued may also sell out.
 

Our range of Two-Tone Cardstock will be expanded! Two-Tone Cardstock will be available in single-colour packages in ALL of our colours. 12" x 12" (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Two-Tone Assortments that coordinate with our Designer Series Paper & Sticker Sheets will also be offered.

Haven't tried our Two-Tone Cardstock yet? This white-core printed cardstock has one side showing the full-strength colour and the other side a lighter version of the same colour. It is also lighter in weight than our dyed-through cardstock. If you want to take it for a test drive, you'll find some of the assortments offered in our September Scrapbooking Brochure in the Last Chance category of my online store with some great discounts!

Further Update Affecting our Cardstock Collection

We had previously been told that 8½" x 11" Basic White Thick Cardstock would no longer be available after the end of the current catalogue. Following demonstrators' feedback on this decision, Stampin' Up!® has decided to continue to offer 8½" x 11" Basic White Thick Cardstock as a pack of 24 sheets! The cost will increase to $24. This item will not be listed in the next Annual Catalogue, but you will be able to continue to order it using item number 159229.

NEW Stampin' Rewards Program Launches Soon

An exciting change is coming to how you are rewarded for shopping with Stampin' Up!® with a brand-new Stampin' Rewards Program, which will make it easier than ever to earn and spend your rewards.

Stampin' Rewards Program Details

• Earn 10% in Stampin' Rewards on EVERY order over $25! (including Paper Pumpkin monthly subscription!)
• Your earned rewards will be available to redeem on your next order.
• Rewards will accumulate in your account with every qualifying order you place, so you can choose when to redeem them. If you have a big purchase in mind, you can save up your rewards!

Example  Place an order for $75 worth of Stampin' Up! products and you'll get $7.50 in Stampin' Rewards added to your account to use on a future order. The next time you order, you can choose to redeem your $7.50, or you can save it to use on a future order.

What do you need to do to earn rewards?

You will need to have an online account to earn and manage your rewards. If you already have an online account, you'll need to opt in to the new rewards program. If you don't have an account, you can create your account at stampinup.ca, or I can send you an invitation.

Once your account is created, you'll then need to opt in to earn rewards. Your account will have a personal rewards dashboard where you'll manage your own rewards. Please note that I will not be able to view or manage your rewards for you. If you have more than one online account with Stampin' Up!, you'll want to make sure that you choose one to use going forwards so that your rewards will all be in one place. Online accounts cannot be merged.

Why is Stampin' Up! making this change?

Many orders either did not qualify for host rewards or did not reach the higher reward levels. Now you can earn rewards on all purchases over $25 instead of having to reach $200 to qualify for rewards. Rewards are tracked automatically in your online account, so you will always know what you have available to redeem. This new program is simpler and more rewarding for more customers!

Launch Schedule

The Stampin' Up! website will be unavailable from 8:00 am (MT) on April 15th to integrate the new rewards program. The transition should take around 6 hours, so the site should be up and running again later that day. You'll then be able to shop and start earning your NEW rewards!

If you have orders that you want to qualify for rewards under the current system, you will need to submit them before the new program launches. Unredeemed Starter Kit codes must also be used before the switch. Please make sure you do this before April 13th.

The Fine Print

• The minimum qualifying purchase amount required to earn rewards is the order product full retail value subtotal minus promotions, discounts, and any redeemed rewards.
• You must redeem your Stampin' Rewards within one year. The expiry date may vary according to state, province, or other local legal requirements. You will always be able to view when your rewards will expire within your customer account.
• Full details will be available on the Stampin' Up! website.

If you have any questions or have problems with getting an online account, just let me know and I'll be happy to help.
