The Red Cross is already well-established in Haiti, and this money will be used to provide immediate relief and long-term support through supplies, technical assistance and other support to help those in need.

It’s official…you can order from the Occasions mini catalog today and also earn freebies via Sale-A-Bration! I have posted both catalogs in my sidebar. You will notice some new products including:

New Punch Design: Starting with the new 2010 Occasions Mini Catalog and continuing with all new punch designs going forward, Stampin’ Up! has adopted a new body style for punches!

A few features of the new punch style are …

• Low-profile, rectangular punch body allows for easier stacking and storing.
• Punches lock shut for easier storage and transport.
• Dual labels on top and end allow for easy identification and selection when stored.
• Available in three sizes: small, medium and xtra-large.
• New punches allow for larger punched images and more intricate designs while providing greater ease of use.
• Corner punches allow you to punch a corner design along the inside edges of a page, not just corners.
• Larger, whole-hand handle design provides better leverage for easier use.

While new punch designs will be in the new body style, existing designs will remain in the existing body style for now.

Clear Mount Rubber Stamps:

Over the past few years, there has been enormous demand from Stampin’ Up! demonstrators and customers alike for a line of repositionable clear-mount rubber stamps. Well, you asked for it, and now you have it!

Starting with stamps in the 2010 Occasions Mini Catalog and the 2010 Sale-A-Bration Brochure, Stampin’ Up! now offers exclusive stamp art in both traditional wood-mount, and the new clear-mount option. This way everyone gets just what they want, whether their preference is for one or the other!

These new clear-mount rubber stamps are the result of extensive research with the intent to maintain the very best image quality in the stamping industry, while at the same time offering the ease-of-use and storability inherent in repositionable clear-mount rubber stamps.

Clear-mount rubber stamps are ideal for crafters with limited storage space. Also, they allow you to arrange several stamps on one clear block for a collage look. On the other hand, wood-mount rubber stamps are an excellent choice for stampers with limited time. You
don’t have to constantly reapply your stamp to the block, just grab the stamp you need, and you are set to go! So you see, one option is not better than the other; it all comes down to personal preference.

Here are the features of our new clear-mount rubber stamps …

• Nine different sizes of clear blocks available individually or as a discounted bundle.
• Blocks have ergonomic grooves on all four sides for easy grip and traditional wood-mount feel.
• Stamps and blocks are durable and easy to clean with your Stampin’ Scrub and Stampin’ Mist.
• Optional image labels on stamp backs let you decide if you want to see the image through the block or not.
• Tight die-cutting for easy image positioning.
• Large clear blocks can be used to create collages or spell words with alphabet sets.
• Stamps store easily in standard, DVD-type cases with artwork on front and spine, making organization easy.
