July 10th!!! That’s the big day! Demonstrator excitement for this new release has been incredible, and the Stampin’ Hot Foil System is expected to be one of the hottest crafting launches of the year. Because of high demand and longer manufacturing lead times, it’s possible the system could sell out quickly.
While additional inventory has already been ordered, if the Hot Foil System sells out, it may not be available again until later this year. The coordinating hot foil products are expected to be replenished more quickly, but the machine itself may have a much longer wait.
Some things to know:
ONE – You do need to have the regular size (not the mini) Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. It is NOT designed to work with other die-cutting machines and will invalidate the one-year warranty if used on them.
TWO – Read the directions. They’re easy to follow, but you do need to follow them precisely. I’ll keep mine handy till I can do it in my sleep.
THREE – While it does take time to heat up, this system is so easy to use and gives beautiful results. Six minutes to start, then another minute and a half to warm up the die.
FOUR – Roll SLOWLY. When die-cutting, you can roll at whatever speed works for you, but with the Foil system, you do need to roll slowly.
FIVE – The foiling system works better with our Two-tone cardstock than with our solid-core cardstock.
SIX – You can use an eraser to remove any extra foil bits that get on your paper where you don’t want them.
If you plan to order, be sure to order the Stampin’ Hot Foil System, at least one foil, two-tone cardstock if you don’t already have it, and at least one hot foil bundle. A suggestion is the Sweetly Sentimental Die Bundle, but check the catalog above for the foil dies currently available.
A great way to use your Stampin’ Rewards! If you’ve been saving your rewards, this is a fantastic time to put them toward a larger purchase.
FREE bonus craft class! Everyone who purchases the Stampin’ Hot Foil System before January 4, 2027 will receive complimentary access to Stampin’ Up!’s Metallic Magic Craft Class ($35 value) The virtual class is packed with techniques, tips, and beautiful projects to help you get the most from your new system.
Currently, we have gold, silver, and pink foil. Try on dark two-tone cardstock, but the light will work, too. I’m so excited…what about you?

Additional perk for new demonstrators
New demonstrators may add eight free catalogs to any order.
As an independent Stampin’ Up! demonstrator, you’ll help others discover their creative potential while building meaningful connections through crafting. You can grow at your own pace, find inspiration at every step, and be part of something creative, connected, and truly rewarding.
You also enjoy a range of exclusive demonstrator-only perks: a product discount, early access to new products and catalogs, the opportunity to earn a modest commission, and opportunities to attend crafting events and creative experiences.
What are the perks of joining?
As a new demonstrator with the Bronze title, you’ll receive a 20% discount on qualifying purchases. You’ll get VIP access and be first to see new products, have the opportunity to attend company events, and be part of a creative community that spans the globe. You’ll also have access to demonstrator-only Facebook groups, development resources to help grow your business (like Stampin’ University and Succeed Weekly, our weekly demonstrator email), the opportunity to have your own online demonstrator storefront via Demonstrator Business Web Services (DBWS), and more. In addition, you’ll have access to our world-class Demonstrator Support team and other experts who are available to help you with everything from placing orders to leveling up your business.
What are some of the ways I can participate as a demonstrator?
One of the best things about being a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator is that you get to choose your own adventure! You can enjoy the products and crafting on your own, or you can share them with others, bringing friends together to experience creativity and fun. And as mentioned earlier, their purchases can help you meet your minimums.
Over time, you may want to expand your crafting circle and become an influencer—adding a few customers and receiving modest commissions. Eventually, you could even decide to become a business builder with a team of your own. Choose whatever Stampin’ Up! journey suits you best and tailor your experience to meet your lifestyle!
How much does it cost to become a demonstrator?
The cost to join is $100. For that you get a coupon code for $125 worth of products to spend on the products you want.
What do I get when I spend $100 to become a demonstrator?
You’ll receive the Get Started Bundle, which includes a $125 coupon code and eight complimentary catalogs. You can start shopping right away with your coupon code and use your new catalogs to tell everyone you know about all the amazing products we offer.
Do I have to sell or build a team?
No! You are free to choose your own adventure and run your Stampin’ Up! business YOUR way! In fact, all it takes to remain an active demonstrator is to meet the quarterly sales requirement. If you prefer, you can place your own orders and/or collect orders from family and friends to equal the quarterly sales minimum.
If you decide that you’d like to build a team of your own, there are benefits! One of them is the friendships that you can enjoy as you share Stampin’ Up! experiences together. Another is being able to qualify for team commissions on product orders that your team member(s) submit.
Are there any minimum sales requirements?
To continue to receive your discount and other demonstrator perks, you need to submit $300 in sales per quarter. Sales can be submitted in any amount—in other words, you don’t have to submit a $300 order all at once—and both your personal purchases and customer orders count toward your minimum. Exceptions include demonstrator business supply items, but nearly everything you purchase or sell will count. You can make these purchases yourself, of course, but sharing the fun of stamping with others can help you meet your minimum sales requirement.
What happens if I don’t meet minimums or need to drop?
If for any reason you don’t meet your quarterly minimum sales requirement, you’ll lose your active status and “drop” as a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator. However, you can sign up again after a short waiting period (45 days). If you choose to come back, you can rejoin with your current team leader or with a new team leader.
I’m in! How do I get started?
Joining is simple. Just complete the sign-up form online or mail it in. After you submit your form, you’ll receive an email with a coupon code for $125 worth of products. You can use this coupon code whenever you want. If your order exceeds the coupon amount, you’ll receive your demonstrator discount on the remaining balance, and that amount will count toward your first quarterly sales minimums.
I’ve got more questions. Who should I contact?
Your new team leader will be your best resource for any questions you may have. You can also contact Demonstrator Support at 1-800-STAMP-UP or ds@stampinup.com. Our agents will be very happy to assist you! Text me at 417 268 7546 and I’ll call you back or send an email to StampinWithPatricia@outlook.com

If you joined as a new member during the October or February join promotions, I encourage you to join again if you dropped since then. And if you’re joining now demonstrator, it’s a perfect time to ask friends to join you on this creative adventure. A simple invitation can spark something amazing!
Share ALL the Benefits of Being a Demonstrator
Discounts are just the start! Demonstrators enjoy early access to products, exclusive events, and a supportive creative community. I like to share what I love most about being a demonstrator—meeting with friends to craft, incentive to create cards/scrapbooking/3D project to share with friends, learning more skills all the time, having fun with like-minded people and soooo much more!!
This promotion is more than a great deal—it’s a chance to share something you truly love while growing and strengthening your community. Every conversation you start could lead to a new creative journey for someone else. So take the leap, become a demonstrator and enjoy the fun and friendships!!

We have a new Stampin’ Up! Catalog structure. In the past, we’ve had an annual catalog from May through April of the following year with additional mini catalogs throughout the year. From this time forward, we will have 3 new catalogs each year, from May to August, another from September to December, and finally from January to April. This will allow us to be more responsive to trends, product availability, and enhance our ability to keep things fresh.
Our first catalog in this new structure goes live on May 5th. We will continue to have some amazing Online Exclusives going live the same day. Hint: if you love Winnie the Pooh, you’re gonna be thrilled. Of course, we will continue with our Kit Collection with at least 2 new kits each month (sometimes 3), and Paper Pumpkin, our subscription kits that come directly to your mailbox. Additionally, we have our Product of the Month for $5 with a $75 or more order.
Included in Paper Crafting (making cards and 3D projects), we have some absolutely fantastic scrapbook offerings. I hope you’ve had an opportunity to check them out. Here’s a look at my desk as I got started!
More things we’ve got available are Craft classes, Scrapbook Workshops and more! Come back for more information…we’ve got a couple of new ones going live soon. I just finished our latest Virtual Album Retreat that was AMAZING!!! I’ve posted a few page spreads on FB and when I’ve completed them (no photos) I’ll share those, too. This is one example:
If you need a physical copy of the catalog, let me know. I will post the digital version here on May 5th.
We received some fantastic goodies!! Here’s a quick look:
It was AMAZING! Here’s a sneak peek at upcoming items!! I’ll be doing a video very soon! If you don’t already have a demonstrator and you’re not a demonstrator let me know and I can send a catalog…oh, yeah!
Not to mention all the new friends and “celebrities” I got to meet!! Do you know them??? I’ll have to post their names but for now do you know them?
Additionally, remember to place your subscription order for Paper Pumpkin…you really may not want to miss this one if you’re interested in this new suite/bundle…it’s truly gonna be fabulous!
This is a great video about the new Virtual Album Retreat 2026!
The price isn’t chump change but then not only is it quality but it includes the either the “how to” lessons, and you get $25 back to spend on other supplies.
Create an adorable card with this stamp set and send it to some-bunny you love! Or use it to craft a scrapbook spread of a moment you hold deer. Whatever you choose to create, this stamp set with woodland friends and useful sentiments is sure to add some springtime joy! It’s a two-step stamp set meaning the deer, duck, rabbit, and leaf sets can be stamped twice, once with the outline and next with the fill. It’s an amazingly adorable set!!
How do you get it?? I’m so glad you asked!! It’s the March Product of the Month option. Once your order reaches $75 you can add this to your order for only $5.
Which figure is your favorite? I don’t honestly know if I can decide. I love the duck but then the deer is just so cute!! Well, I have to admit I like the little bunny, too!!
Do you need new Stamps and Dies, refill on cardstock, maybe more envelopes or adhesives!! I know I need some of the cool new DSP so now is the time to order and FREE shipping! My favorite time!
