Stampin’ Rewards and Paper Pumpkin Changes and Price Increases Coming Soon!

I wanted to post a quick note to let you know about a few changes and some price increases that are happening soon at Stampin’ Up!.  Let’s start with the soonest changes first.

Paper Pumpkin Is Moving March 11!!

Paper Pumpkin accounts will no longer be managed on a separate website at paperpumpkin.com.  It’s all going to merge with the stampinup.com site!

Starting March 11th at 8 AM MT, you’ll only need to log into your Stampin’ Up! online store account at stampinup.com to start or manage your Paper Pumpkin subscription!

Initially you will need to “claim” your paperpumpkin.com account in the subscriptions area of your Stampin’ Up! online store account.  So be sure you know and can access the email that your Paper Pumpkin account is currently under (claiming can occur on or after March 11th).  Then you will have full access to all the editing options.

Click here for an informative PDF and click here for a video on managing your account(s).

Prepaid subscriptions are also changing a bit.  The One Month Prepaid subscription is going away since gifting will be so much easier (check out the video for the details!).  There will no longer be a slight discount with the 6 and 12 month subscriptions.  But with the new customer rewards program you will earn when purchasing the new 3, 6 or 12 month prepaid subscriptions!

If your subscription is active, you will be billed for this kit on March 11.  IMPORTANT: You only have until March 10 at 11:59 a.m. (MT) to manage your subscription, which is 12 hours less than is typical for your monthly adjustment timeframe.  This is due to website maintenance and only impacts this month’s kit.  If you want to skip or cancel this order, no problem, just click here to manage your account.

Yay for an easier way to manage your Paper Pumpkin subscription coming tomorrow!!


Cardstock Price Increases In The New 2025-2026 Annual Catalog

Stampin’ Up! shared the following update with Demonstrators:

In light of steadily increasing production costs, we’ve made a few updates to our cardstock offerings.

WHY THE CHANGE?
Over the years, Stampin’ Up! has worked diligently to manage rising costs while balancing high-quality standards and remaining competitive in the market. The costs for raw materials and production have continued to climb, and only a select few mills around the world are qualified to produce our heavyweight, dyed-through cardstock, ensuring it meets our color and quality standards.

WHAT’S CHANGING?

  • 8-1/2″ x 11″ cardstock:
    • All single-color cardstock packages will now contain 24 sheets (including Basic White and Very Vanilla).
    • Assortments will contain 20 sheets.
    • Prices will be $14 for both single-color and assortment packs.
    • 8-1/2″ x 11″ Thick Basic White Cardstock will be discontinued, Thick Basic White Cardstock will be available in 12″ x 12″ packs beginning with the new Annual Catalog in early May.
      • The 8-1/2″ x 11″ Thick Basic White Cardstock is currently on backorder but it’s showing as restocking around March 24 so keep an eye out for it to return soon!
  • 12″ x 12″ cardstock:
    • Our heavyweight, dyed-through cardstock and Basic White Thick Cardstock packages will contain 24 sheets.
    • 12″ x 12″ dyed cardstock will be $22.
    • 12″ x 12″ Basic White Thick Cardstock will be $26
    • We’re also expanding our 12″ x 12″ offerings with Two-Tone cardstock available in single-color packages in all colors.
    • We will no longer offer 12″ x 12″ dyed cardstock in assortments but will continue to provide 12″ x 12″ Two-Tone assortments that coordinate with our Designer Series Paper & Sticker Sheets.
  • OTHER PRODUCT UPDATES:
    • Pricing and configuration for our 12″ x 12″ Two-Tone cardstocks and White Willow 12″ x 12″ Cardstock remain unchanged.
    • In addition to the changes mentioned above, you will notice a handful of other price increases, which are typical in a new catalog.
So stock up on those card stock packs now ahead of the price increases!  You can find the card stock in the online store here.

New Stampin’ Up! Customer Rewards Program Coming Mid-April!

Stampin’ Up! is updating their Rewards Program beginning mid-April!

The current Stampin’ Rewards program that Stampin’ Up! has had for many years will be going away in mid-April.  You’ll soon be able to earn Stampin’ Rewards on smaller orders!  Yippee!!  Here are the basics:

  • You’ll no longer need to place a large order of $150+ to earn free product like you do with the current Stampin’ Rewards system.
  • Starting April 15 at 8 AM MT and moving forward, you will earn 10% rewards with orders of $20+!! So if you place an order of $50, you’ll earn a $5 reward to use the next time you shop!
  • You can save your rewards for up to a year!  So you can spend them on a future order all at once or a little at at time.
  • Additionally, the “host code” will be going away, so beginning April 15, you’ll no longer need to apply my current host code to your order.
    • That does mean that my $10 thank you gifts will also be going away on April 15 since I used the host rewards to “purchase” those gifts for everyone.  But since you’ll be earning 10% back in rewards directly from Stampin’ Up! with every order of $20+, you’re going to be able to cash in those rewards for anything that you’d like on any order that you’d like to use them on!

What won’t be changing:
My Running Shoe Rewards program will not be changing.  So no worries there!  You’ll still continue to earn reward points toward free Stampin’ Up! merchandise from me with every order of $50+!  And any points/rewards/gifts that you’ve collected from me up until this point will still be valid.  So you won’t be losing out on anything that you’ve earned from me and you’ll continue to earn points toward free merchandise with every order of $50+ just like you do now.

What should you know now to prepare for these changes?
Here are a few things that you can do to make the transition to the new program as smooth as possible:

  • You need to have a Stampin’ Up! online store account at stampinup.com so you can earn and redeem rewards.
    • I will not be able to create and manage customer accounts.  I’ll be able to help you with ordering if you need me.  But because of stricter banking policies and data/privacy laws, you need to officially be in charge of your own customer account for earning & redeeming rewards.  So make sure you can log in at stampinup.com.
  • You will need to opt into the program to earn and redeem Stampin’ Rewards.  When you place your first order after April 15, you’ll have the option to opt into the new rewards program.  If you choose not to opt in with your first order, you’ll have the option to opt in at any point when you order after that.
  • If you don’t want a Stampin’ Up! online store account or if you’d prefer to pay with Paypal or call/email me with your order, you can still order SU products through me. You just won’t receive the Stampin’ Rewards directly for your purchases.  I’ll receive the rewards and I’ll need to apply them to future orders for you.  So don’t worry about setting up an account if you don’t want to.
  • If you don’t want to opt into the rewards program, you don’t have to opt in.  You can still order; you just won’t receive the Stampin’ Rewards for your purchases.

Again, these changes will begin April 15th at 8 AM Mountain Time.  I’m notifying you a little early so that you are ready for these changes.  Let me know if you have any questions.  I’m excited for you all to start earning rewards on orders of $20+ soon!

Whew!  That’s a lot of changes and new things all at once!!  Let me know if you have any questions.  I’m happy to help!


March 1-15 Host Code:  BZ24AWRC

Use this host code when you order $50 or greater and receive a free gift from me!  If your order is over $150, please do not use this code, but you’ll still get the free gift.
