I love the new sleek and compact style!  You can place right on your craft desk in front of you for easy access to all of your favorite Stampin' Up! colors.

STORAGE BY STAMPIN’ UP! Q&A 


No. The Ink Pad & Marker Storage Trays are designed to fit our new-design Stampin’ Pads only.
We stacked up to 50 storage trays without any issues, BUT we would not recommend stacking that high. While our Storage by Stampin’ Up! products are sturdy, the higher you stack them, the less stable they’ll become. Use your discretion when stacking.
No. Currently, we have not deemed any other companies’ storage products as competitive. Stampin’ Up! recognizes the subjective nature of competitive products and will regularly evaluate products in question, as well as Stampin’ Up!’s core product offerings. We strive to keep the best interests of Stampin’ Up! and our demonstrators in mind.
No. Our modular storage products are designed to sit on a table (or similar flat surface).
The Open Storage Cube can be used to hold any miscellaneous items like ribbon, embellishments, and small punches. For more inspiration on ways to use items from our Storage by Stampin’ Up! product line, check out the configuration chart we created.
Yes! Our Storage by Stampin’ Up! products are modular and designed with customization in mind. Take a look at the flyer for more information on the size and dimensions of each item in our new modular storage product line.
No. The Storage Lid covers the top of Ink Pad & Marker Storage Trays, Stampin’ Blends Storage Trays, and Open Storage Cubes, so you need only one per storage configuration.
Both. We designed these modular storage products to be free-standing and stackable, so you can customize your crafting space to work best for you.
Like all of our product offerings, we hope Storage by Stampin’ Up! will be successful and expand. However, at this point in time, we can’t guarantee any additional modular storage products in the future.
We are not currently offering any bundles for items from our Storage by Stampin’ Up! product line. If you’re looking for some examples on how to mix and match our storage pieces together, please take a look at the configuration chart we put together and provided on the demonstrator website.
You can store up to 20 Stampin’ Ink Refills (or other small items) in the Storage Topper.
No. When you insert an ink pad into a storage tray, a small portion of the ink pad will stick out. We designed it this way, so your ink pads will be both secure and easy to access.
No. Both of these items include a set of five white plastic trays. Please use the configuration chart to determine how many storage units you need.
Our modular storage products are made with white, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) plastic, which is a lightweight and durable material.
·         How do the silicone feet work?
To protect your surface and prevent slipping, we’ve included peel-and-stick silicone feet with the Ink Pad & Marker Storage Trays, Stampin’ Blends Storage Trays, and Open Storage Cube.

I will post all the links on April 1st, if you have any questions please let me know.
