Stampin’ Up! Inked Floret in Black & White

Good Saturday morning stamping friends, welcome to the Holiday Weekend. I hope you have some fun plans in the works. I do have to work all day today, but I’m really hoping to get outside to get some planting done before I go away. I picked up 14 plants so far including all kinds of herbs, tomatoes, peppers and eggplant.

I have a sneak peek for you or a stamp set coming in July with the new Online Exclusives. We got to place out preorder on Tuesday, and I felt like a kid at Christmas when mine arrived. I dug right in and the first stamp set I grabbed I decided to make a card with. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Inked Floret Stamp Set and the Stampin’ Up! Sending Salutations Stamp Set for my card today. I decided to do it in Black & White with a touch of color.

New Basic Black Hybrid Ink Pad Coming in May 2026!

Stampin’ Up! is releasing a new Basic Black Hybrid Stampin’ Pad (166648) and the Basic Black Hybrid Ink Refill (166649)* with the May–August 2026 Catalog!!  The new ink has the ability to work with various coloring techniques.  In fact, it’s called “hybrid” because it has similar characteristics to StāzOn and Memento—you can use this single pad for watercolor techniques AND techniques featuring Stampin’ Blends!  The new hybrid ink will be a coloring go-to.

STĀZON & MEMENTO INK UPDATE:

Something that has us less excited is how increasingly difficult it has become to source StāzOn and Memento ink. The timing of the Hybrid ink is fortunate, as it’s releasing right as Stampin’ Up! will be forced to discontinue the following products once existing inventory is gone:

  • Tuxedo Black Memento Ink Pad (132708)
  • Tuxedo Black Memento Ink Refill (133456)
  • Jet Black StāzOn Ink Pad (101406)
  • Jet Black StāzOn Ink Refill (102566)
  • Saddle Brown StāzOn Ink Pad (151508)
  • Saddle Brown StāzOn Ink Refill (152820)
  • StāzOn Cleaner (109196)

Here are a few things to note about the ink transition:  

  • All discontinued items listed above will be available while supplies last.  If Stampin’ Up! sells out of items ahead of them being moved to the Last Chance Products list, they will be labeled unavailable and be removed from the online store.
  • * The Basic Black Hybrid Ink Refill (166649) will not be available for several months and will not be listed in the Online Store when the catalog releases to customers.  As soon as Stampin’ Up! provides an update on when the refills are available, I’ll let you know.

Good Saturday morning stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. We’re having such a great time here in Long Beach at OnStage. The weather is beautiful, even though we’re inside most of the day. We’ve had a couple team dinners that always have a lot of laughing and chatting going on. We’ve been on the go since Thursday afternoon. Getting to see the new catalog was awesome and all the new products coming. I just love the new layout of the catalogs that we’re going to have.
