Item Quick-Add Feature

Adding items to your shopping cart is now easier than ever. In addition to browsing and adding items to your shopping cart, any online store user can add a product to their shopping cart by entering an item code into a field and designating a desired quantity for the item. This function is found in the shopping cart, and the quickest way to get to this is to click the shopping cart icon in the upper right corner of the site navigation. This works much like the current item entry method in Order Entry Express (OEX) but works for any user of the online store.

Displaying Products Available in Multiple Languages

The way the online store has displayed and filtered products with multiple language versions has left something to be desired—until now. Moving forward, the site will show you all products in your primary language (e.g., stamps, kits)—and all products that don’t have language options (e.g., ink, embellishments, tools, etc.)—together as the default product displayed within the category view you’ve selected in the Shop Products section of the main navigation menu. For example, if you click Menu > Shop Products > Shop All, you will see all products with the language designation that matches your primary language (e.g., if you’re a French-speaking Canada user your default is French) along with all products that don’t have language options.

This change is intended to clean up the presentation of products for most users, who are interested in seeing the items that most apply to them without having to sort through products available in languages they aren’t interested in.

To see products in languages beyond your primary language, use the “Language” section under the “Filter By” left-hand navigation in desktop view or by clicking the “Filter” button near the top in mobile view. Here’s how that menu functions to filter products for your viewing.

  • Clicking one or more specific language in the language filter menu will show you products available in the selected language or languages. For example, if you click “English,” it will show you all products within the category you’re viewing that have an “English” designation in the product name (found in parentheses at the end of the product name). You can view multiple languages at once by clicking more than one selection in the filter menu.
  • We’ve also introduced a new selection in the language menu: “View All.” Clicking “View All” in the left-hand language navigation menu will show you all products with a language option, in all languages.
  • There is also a “Clear” button that appears at the bottom of the language filter menu once a selection is made on the menu. Clicking “Clear” will restore the view to the default language products and all non-language specific products.
  • Please note that using the language filter options will only show you products with a language designated in their product name. You will not see products without a language option/designation when using these filters, like ribbon, embellishments, etc.
  • Also note that the language filter section does not appear in the “Filter By” navigation when you are viewing specific product categories that don’t have any products with a language option/designation (e.g., Menu > Shop Products > Adhesives > Glue)

Paper Crafting Blog Hop – Punches!

5 Comments

So happy you are checking out our August Paper Crafting Monthly Blog Hop with Independent Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from all over the world! Each demonstrator has created projects featuring punches! Below my card is a list of links to all of the participating bloggers.

My card features the Countryside Inn 12″ x 12″ DSP (#161467) punched with the Inked & Tiled Punch Pack (#161167)! The punches are a part of the Inked & Tiled Bundle (#161168). There is also the Inked Botanicals Suite Collection (#161172) and the DSP is a part of the Countryside Inn Suite Collection (#161474). The card base is Basic White with a layer of Countryside Inn DSP, and another layer of Basic White with six punched pieces of DSP on top of one more piece of DSP! A piece of Boho Blue 3/8″ Textured Ribbon (#161631) behind the sentiment from Waves of Inspiration (#158833) stamped in Night of Navy on a scrap of Basic White. Three Iridescent Rhinestones Basic Jewels (#158130) complete my card.

Stamping Stray Ducklings – Color Combination Challenge!

4 Comments

Welcome to our August Blog Waddle! We are featuring color combinations to create our cards!! I looked around for a color combination created by someone else, but did not find one I wanted to use. I do use this site: http://colorlab.mycreateink.com when I am looking for a combination. I knew I wanted bright colors, but I didn’t find anything I liked, so I created my own. I put Garden Green, Daffodil Yellow, Poppy Parade, and Gorgeous Grape together. How do you pick colors for your card?

My card base is Thick Basic White using the lattice front card design. I thought the Dainty Delight Dies (#160674) would be perfect in front of my “fence”. Using scraps of all the colors in my color combination, I die cut the pieces. Don’t you love the texture and depth of these flowers!? A Happy Birthday sign was created from a scrap of Basic White and Poppy Parade ink using the Pansy Patch stamp set (#154999) for the sentiment, punched out with the Double Oval punch (#154242) and hung on the fence with a piece of Sweet Sorbet twine from the 2022-2024 In Color Baker’s Twine Pack (#159195) I added a piece of Daffodil Delight inside to accentuate the fence.
