The video will also show you tips on how to use the Stamparatus templates I created.
What is the Stamparatus? It’s a must-have tool for all stampers, the Stamparatus helps you perfectly align stamp images, stamp multiples of the same project quickly and precisely, and get complete ink coverage.
It was created by stampers for stampers, so it has all the features you want:
* Compatible with red rubber and photopolymer stamps
* 2 magnets to hold the paper in place
* Rulers on 2 sides for quick measuring
* 2 open sides so you can use larger paper
* Multiple hinges for more placement options
* 2 reversible plates for 4 sides to work with
* 1 foam mat for use with photopolymer
* 1 base with grid
* Magnet storage areas
Watch Stampin’ Up!’s video… Jessica shares lots of great features and tips
The more I use my Stamparatus the more I love it! It is one of those must-have tools!
I recently created these templates to use for dies & punches. I use them to get an even image around my stamp and the cut-out of the die or punch. The templates work great at my stamping events and for my personal use.

Thank you so much for these templates!!
Terri – Thank you so much for these templates. I was just starting to think about how I could set up something like this but didn’t quite know where to begin and then I saw your post. Thank you again for taking the time to create these templates and share them with us!!
I love all of your tips. I always use my Stamparatus. It has helped me create better cards with less errors. I can’t wait to order the snowman bundle and after seeing those papers more up close in your video, I decided I need to get two packs and ease the decision making! I’m excited for the new sets and to use your great templates!
Thanks so much for these free downloads! They will be a great help I am sure. Love all of your creations!
