Purple Posy Ink Pads Discontinued

Information received from Stampin' Up!

Purple Posy Ink To Be Discontinued


Despite our efforts to resolve issues with Purple Posy ink, we have learned that the ink color is still shifting over time. This means that the color is coordinating more loosely than we typically allow with our colors. Due to these ongoing challenges, we have decided to discontinue Purple Posy classic ink. As of November 5, 2019, the following items will no longer be available to purchase:
  • Purple Posy Classic Stampin’ Pad (item 150084)
  • Purple Posy Classic Stampin’ Ink Refill (item 150091)
  • 2019–2021 In Color Classic Stampin’ Pad Assortment (item 150087)
We are unable to replace Purple Posy ink pads for customers or demonstrators who have already received them. However, anyone with concerns regarding the color shifting properties of their Purple Posy ink pads may contact Demonstrator Support and we can offer a $7.50 usd/$10.25 cad coupon code as compensation. The coupon codes will expire on January 1, 2020.

All other Purple Posy products (such as Purple Posy Stampin' Write Marker, Purple Posy Cardstock, Purple Posy Stampin' Blends, etc.) will remain available for purchase.
 
All of Stampin' Up!'s exclusive ink colors are run through a vigorous series of tests to get ahead of challenges like this, and to ensure colors are accurate and meet our standards of coordination. Purple Posy did pass regular testing standards in time-simulating ovens, but Stampin' Up!  have now identified that it fell short when it came to actual time passing. The color begins to shift once the ink has rested in the ink pad for about six weeks.
 
It is rare for Stampin' Up! or our ink manufacturer to have such persistent issues with ink; Purple Posy has certainly been an anomaly. Stampin' Up! completed full testing on 11 distinct batches of Purple Posy Classic Stampin' Ink before releasing the current version. Stampin' Up! is now confident that no additional efforts would uphold our coordination needs over time. Stampin' Up! appreciates your patience as they have worked through this manufacturing difficulty and regret that they are unable to share better news.  
 
I am so grateful to work for such a great company that stands behind their product. If you purchased the Purple Posy ink pad, contact me to get your credit. Thanks
