Hi friends! I hope you enjoy seeing a first in-depth look at the Altenew Stamp Wheel. I think it is an incredibly innovative stamp platform with so many possibilities for amazing stamping techniques. I customized a sticky mat with centering markings to make my Stamp Wheel work best for me, but I am sure accessories like it will be released very soon! Let me know your thoughts in the comments below! :)
Just preordered with your link. Good review.
I pre-ordered mine. Thanks for an awesome review! I decided to give this a try because I like the wheel. I ordered the Misti early on and wished I had waited because of later Improvements. It would be nice if they offer accessories with a discount for those who preordered.
Hi Simon! I have been following you since a long time ago. First, It was adorable to see such a young kid into card making and after, as you were growing up, I was impressed about your entrepreneurial drive and all that you have accomplished at such a young age. Well, today I have to tell you that you got me impressed again and definitely you have gained my respect for the gracious way in which you have stated your honest opinion without putting down the brand, explaining what goes into the creation of a tool like this, not only the quality but, the creativity of the maker, just stating that in your specific case, it wouldn't be something you would be using everyday. On top you, you left very clear that you were asking your followers please not to say that it was overpriced because it was not what you said, and it's true, you didn't, you just stated a fact: it's pricey and you understand why and explained it to us. Way to go Simon, keep breaking a leg.
After lusting for the Misti for 3 years, I finally just got one. Well, now I want this Stamp Wheel!!!!!! It looks so easy! Thanks for your review Simon!
Thank for doing this review. Now that you have had it for a month. How much have you used it? Any other fun tips or tricks learned?
Thanks to Simon’s demonstration, I clicked on his link and pre-purchased the Stampwheel. It arrived two days ago. It’s no secret to my crafting friends that I am the world’s worst stamper. I get more ink on me than my project. I am so very happy to report that I stamp like a pro with my new, and already much loved, Stampwheel. It is an amazing tool. I’m looking forward to trying my luck at stencils. I give the Stampwheell two ink free thumbs up. On a side note, we are so lucky to have Simon!
Warm regards to you all, Greg
The Stamperatus by Stampin Up won me over because I could use 2 lids and flip them for layering stamps, etc. This tool is even better and with the photo polymer base for stencils, I think it’s an even better value. Great job Altenew!
That’s exactly what I’ve been thinking! Having used and liked the Stamparatus very much, the Stamp Wheel improves on some of the limitations I’ve found in the Stamparatus. That said, my go-to tool for regular stamping is the Misti. Not because it’s better, but because I’ve used it so much that I don’t have to think about any steps- it’s fastest for me.
@@cg2264 Very true. I'm fortunate that, over time, I have been able to get all three, and I think they all still have their uses. I love my mini Misti for quickly placing a sentiment or stamping a simple card. I bought extra plates for the Stamparatus so I can keep my two "handmade by" stamps permanently lined up on one plate (one centered for landscape and one for portrait). I also like having the extra plates for mass-producing Christmas cards with many different stamps in the design. I think I will especially like the Stampwheel that arrived a couple of days ago for wreaths and stenciling, though I believe Altenew replied to my query that they will also offer the flip plates separately so one can have extras.
Sadly, I only learned about Stamparatus recently when there was another TH-camr’s video advising that it had been retired - I was very intrigued by the options of the two removable lids.
If you factor in the cost of both the Misti stamp positioner AND the sticky mat, the price difference is not that different $83 vs. 100 for the Stampwheel. The photopolymer mat is a great idea & will be more durable than the sticky mats. The ability to rotate to create wreaths is also a plus. Well balanced review.
True… add in the special template for wreaths and they come out about the same.
Lol my misti style stamp platform bought from crafts too cost £16 my mats about £8 for 5 from Ali express. £24 VS $100. However, if it could also replace your waffle flower blending mat and your gel plate it might look better value.
@@faithtester2217 Ali Express steals designs, so of course they can sell it cheaper. My comment is in reference to buying it from legitimate sources.
I really appreciate your comments about why innovative tools cost more. I think most people have no idea what goes into making new products, including be the costs of all the attempts that for one reason or another never make it to mass production
Yes! It’s helpful to be a crafter and also know a lot about behind the scenes manufacturing. It’s super pricey to manufacture something like this for a small company… so the price seems pretty justified. They aren’t trying to rip you off! :)
I love editing Simon! You always give me a chuckle in your videos. Thank you for your honest review and show the ‘mistakes’ that happen. You always keep things very real and are so informative! ❤
Thank you Simon for your review. I have watched several videos but yours is the first that answered my question about how to use cling red rubber stamps with the wheel. I have been thinking long and hard about this tool because I have 3 other stamping devices and gave one I absolutely didn't like away. I especially appreciate the factual approach you took to justify the price point. Yes it is high, but manufacturing new products takes money. I hope that over time, when it isn't so new, Altenew will lower the price to pass savings on to the community. In the mean time I will always be a gadget lover and I think I deserve this addition to my inventory. It will add new techniques to my crafting.
BTW Simon, I began watching your videos when you were quite new to TH-cam. I have watched you grow up on my big screen. Your skills and delivery have improved 100% and now you have your own product line! Congratulations on your success. Keep up the good work. I am old enough to be your grandma (70 last week) and I couldn't be more impressed if you were my own.
I absolutely love what you said at the end. I don’t think I’ll be getting the tool right now, but kudos to Altenew for the work they put into this. I think with a few refinements (your suggestions were excellent) they can do well selling this and at least recoup their investment. And I bet their next tool will be even better. And so on. But we need companies like them to be innovating. You’re right, so thank you for that reminder. 😊
I agree, I think they should do the improvements Simon suggested. Magnetic and the marks for card placement would make it a much better product.
Thank you for the unbiased review and all the different testing. I think this tool will actually give the Misti a run for its money. She can’t sue Altenew because with the rotating lid and photopolymer mat, it is unique to anything else. I personally don’t care if it is magnetized bc the sticky mat would work best for my needs. I will definitely put this positioner in the queue. Maybe with your great recommendations, there will be a version 2 in the future 😂 Thank you Simon!
Ditto about Iliana suing! I think it was sucky that she actually won her suits. People have been using two picture frames for years before she came up with "her" idea.
I much prefer the TH platform, but "may" consider this in the future - IF I can bring myself to pay that exorbitant price! Sorry, but I think it's way overpriced.
They could also offer a replacement top for the multi stamping, in case you have more layers, like the we. R precision press. That way you could have two wheels going, to crank out those Christmas cards, without having to peel off the stamps to make room for another layer or sentiment.
As another alternative to the sticky matt, maybe you could use the grid lines from the original packaging that was on the photopolymer square base to help line up card stock for red rubber stamps. Obviously, it won't be sticky, so using some spray adhesive or stencil glue could possibly work, and then that way, there is less plastic waste? I suppose it depends on how warped it is once it's been taken off the photopolymer square, but I think it would be worth exploring. Any thoughts? :)
Was wondering the same thing.
Incredibly well-done demonstration, Simon! In all honesty, I think I will hold off on purchasing this tool as it seems… well… a bit tedious. I agree, that the price point is high. How do I say this politely? I love new ideas so, kudos on the wheel. This is just not different enough for the investment… at this time.
Blue sky thinking never goes out of fashion. If you were to add stencil glue to the gridded film you've solved your problem.
I ordered one yesterday for all the reasons described, plus the Misti + Wreath Builder by GK restricts cardstock sizes and this looks more generous and flexible for wreaths. Apologies to GK-I love all your products!!
Why is there a grid in the packaging?
I think I saw a demo where the grid was in place?? I’ll play with the grid as some of these replies suggest and hopefully revise my reply.
I wondered why the grid pattern was in the packaging if you aren’t going to use it.(?)
When they make it magnetic, include a sticky mat, and add a dark outline for where an A2 card base should go to center it, I will consider buying it. ❤ Great review!
In my opinion, you did an excellent job reviewing this product. That wheel looks a little bulky to use on a daily basis but I can see how it would be extremely handy when making multiples of the same card. And it appeared to be a really sweet tool when you made the wreath! The wheel/platform seems to be a combination of Altenew's turn about jig and a stamp platform. I agree, there needs to be something on the bottom with marks, measurements to ensure proper card and/or paper alignment. Because it was so obvious when you removed the photopolymer pad to use your red rubber stamp, I'm am genuinely surprised Altenew didn't notice it right off (no slam against Altenew intended). Your creation to solve that issue was great! Job well done as always Mr Simon!!! TFS
This isn't bulky at all. It looks bigger than you think. Its actually a decent size. I can fit in my drawer in my micheals cabinet with plenty of room around it.
I have quite a few ink layering stamp sets. This could be a game changer as I generally make 20 to 50 cards at a time for nursing homes and church.
If you can afford it, this may be one of the more versatile stamping helps on the market. Would consider a purchase in the future.
I would definitely want some kind of grid to help with lining up paper and stamps. The idea of a magnetic base to help hold the paper when using the rubber stamps is a good one! Awesome video!
I think it is good they left out a sticky grid. Now other retailers can create a grid or something to pair with it later. It would be an added expense, yes, but everyone crafts differently and maybe doesn't need it, so I like that they left it out.
I would think the photopolymer part could also help with the reverse or mirror technique. I don't have a large enough surface on any of my stamps to use that technique.
Ooooh that is such a great idea to try! :)
Yup it does, the Altenew video demonstrates the mirror technique. They stamp directly on the polymer mat and press the cardstock to it.
The 100$ price was a little bit of a shock. I like what they've done. very smart.
I think this would be a game changer for use with the concord & 9th turnabout stamps. I was not sold until I saw you stencil with it. Now I will be pre-ordering one. Your solution with the sticky mat spot on! I have been cutting and using those for years and find they work just as good as the ones that are on the market today made for that purpose. My hope is that Altenew will make some sort of clear contact plastic adhesive grid for the bottom of the platform. That would solve the grid issue which I think is a necessary option for something like this. In the interim I think a piece of Cricut gridded release paper (the kind you use with Cricut type vinyl)might do the trick and should be fairly easy to stick to the bottom of the platform.
Like you I don’t think this will replace my Misti for everyday use but it definitely will come in handy for some applications. Thanks Simon for the honest review and all the tips and tricks.
Simon, Thanks so much for this video! I love my Altenew Stampwheel! I did exactly what you recommended but I used the grid that came attached to the sticky mat, I now have markings showing exactly where my A2 size card goes directly in the center, I'm really happy with that. I did cut out the corners of the Grid so that the mat would still stick to the bottom of the platform and it works great. What a wonderful tool to use especially for stamp layering and wreaths, like you showed us using your Pinstripe & Berries & Branches stamps. Even with the higher price range we all bit the bullet with our Misti and are now happy we did! I believe, with time This tool will be an investment to our craft!
Thanks for the demo, Simon. Really appreciated being able to see the tool in action... As 50 year crafter, I absolutely am glad for inovation!
I love Altenew, but was on the fence about whether to invest in another stamping platform right now. Your wreath demo was what I needed to see, and I never even thought about the stenciling potential. Having such a great range of uses beyond layering stamps makes it a more valuable tool for me. Thanks for doing such a comprehensive review!
I agree with you about the magnet base & the sticky grid on the bottom, hopefully Altenew will listen to your suggestions
Stumbled upon this while watching your Facebook short. And just wanted to say that I love the positive vibe you send out in your videos. 😊
Thank you so much Jess! So glad you love the videos. Hugs!!🤗🤗
I love, love,love Altenew. They are my most favorite company when it comes to card making. Thank you for the great review. I’m your biggest fan. Lots of love from Dallas ,Texas, Klara.
I definitely agree - both a sticky and magnetic base would be a plus and I would buy it in a flash!
gREAT SHOW SIMON IT REALLY LOOKS LIKE A NICE TOOL TO HAVE.........THANKS FOR THE DEMO.....PAT
I also think that your final comments are very well thought out! The suggestions how to make the tool even better are very useful - hopefully to Altenew, too, they are such a great company! And obviously the price - while forbidding for many - can be more than justified - and this is the kind of thing you not only (like you said) by once in a lifetime but it is also worth saving up for (and there is no one saying you can‘t start your Christmas wishlist in March 😂).
Thanks Nicola! I try to be unbiased and ensure that I am watching out for all of you when doing these reviews. But being on the manufacturing side too with my own products, I am able to understand both sides of it. Altenew is such a great company and here I can definitely see where the price is justified. Hugs!🤗
I love this new tool whereas other wreath makers require you to have a square piece of paper you can use a rectangular card front to make a wreath on this tool. That takes an extra step out of making wreaths. Awesome!
They obviously should’ve sent you one for testing before bringing it to market. But then again, adding sticky mats and magnets will just be another item they can sell separately 🙄 I honestly don’t find this to be any better or much different than other stamping tools on the market. Thanks for the thorough unboxing and testing. I really appreciate a good review of a tool before purchasing.
That’s so thoughtful of you Sarah, Thanks for your positive review,How are you and how’s the weather over there?
Got mine in the mail yesterday and after watching your video I can’t wait to use it!
Excellent show casing of the stamp heel, Bravo👏👏👏
Good idea for the sticky cutting mat I thought of that too, I would line up the markings on the mat to be in the exact center of the platform which would also provide other marked edges to line up. Thanks for demonstrating the stamping wheel for us.
Thank you Simon for your candid review on the Stampwheel. I am pretty biased when it comes to Altenew products just as I am with Ranger products because I love them as a consumer. I bought the Stampwheel and adore it for many applications. One thing I wanted to address was the alignment where you put the custom grid in the middle (which was genius) however Altenew has already addressed that issue and is coming out with an alignment tool to use in the Stampwheel on the 11th of April. Thanks again for your candid review and I am a fan of you, your products, and the Altenew Stampwheel!
Thank you BOTH so much, Editor Simon and Normal Simon, for the in-depth review and suggests. I received an Altenew StampWheel for Christmas 2023. The minute I opened it I knew I had to come looking for your tutorial. I watched it when you first posted this so I knew it was chock full of tips and tricks! Thank you BOTH!😄
Love the stampwheel! I have two and that allows me to have 16 or even more stamps on it at one time!
I love your videos Simon. You are very creative and encouraging. Please keep it up. This is a creative stamping tool and I appreciate when crafters like you demonstrate and provide your honest feedback. Have a great day, Simon and crafty friends!
Nicely done. I am seriously considering this tool. Your review helped a lot. As far as the price. I think it is very reasonable. My goodness. Everything is going up. I’m sure the materials cost more. All of the other stamping tools are pricey as well and I think they are worth it. This tool seems to be so versatile. Altenew is a fabulous company. Thanks again. Take care ❤️
Hi Simon,
My Stampwheel just came in, so I’m binge watching all of the videos reviewing the Stampwheel, so far I’m impressed. The quality is definitely very good and it will last a very l-o-n-g time. TYFS your opinion.
loved this video and you made it look so easy
This would be a good complement to my Stamparatus. The 7.5" base size is nice as it easily fits the standard rectangle and square card sizes. I agree that a centering grid of some kind is needed, which would be made better with marks for A2, 5x7, and 6x6 paper. I've never been able to line my C&9 turnabout stamps up nicely in my Stamparatus (all user error as I haven't broken down and bought their sticky jig). This would be great for those stamps! The price point seems fair for the product. It overlaps with some other tools on the market, but is distinct enough to consider buying. I like that there are 16 "positions" for rotating a stamp to add more dimension to a wreath. Thank you for the open-minded and comprehensive - yet concise - review, Simon!
Thanks once again Simon, for a very informative video! I have pre-ordered the Stampwheel. I can see it being very useful for stencils for sure. I love your videos; always informative and fun. I've learned tons from watching you. I admit I've acquired nearly ALL of your stencils, clear stamps, rubber stamps, ink pads, and Lunar Paste in just a couple of months!! I think I need an intervention!!
a few years back, we used to have a stamping wheel just the same, but without the sticky mat. That is what I am curious about. I wonder and doubt that it will remain sticky long enough without a protection of some sort. Just as everything sticky, it doesn't like air. Without replacing something to protect it, it will dry. I recommend to cover it with a clear window sheet, just as we do with our polymer stamps or with cricut mat, especially if you live in a very dry climate. The cricut mat is indeed a great idea to place underneath with the marking. It doesn't have to be cricut, any cheap mat will do.
Thanks for the review and the editing. Now there are two options to rotate (ha, ha). Your comment about not commenting on the price is spot on. It’s negative and not helpful. Buyers can read and make there own decision. For the benefits I have purchased this wheel. I see it as so useful for large background that I have trouble getting solid color without a lot of repeat stamping. I thing applying the pressure is more even that the using the misti lid.
Great review and great suggestions, thank you so much I’m sold!
What a great review! Thanks for taking the time and for being so honest.
Hi
I do like this new tool. I especially like how it makes using layering stamps much simpler since I often shy away from using layering stamps . Great video. Thanks
Edgar from NYC
Love the presentation already am on the wish list .. thanks Simon ..love your videos !!!
I’m wondering about the absence of grid lines on the cover plate to line up sentiment easily 🧐
wonderful thorough review. Thank you
Great demo. Thank you. Looks fun.
Great review. Thank you so much 💕💕
Great video! Thank you for all the tips and your positive contributions in this crafting community!
Thank you for doing such an honest and fair review. Really well done and helpful!
I agonize over purchasing certain craft supplies because of so many choices! Thank you for helping me make informed decisions! I totally trust your opinion! ✌️❤️😊🙏
Great job. Great review! Thank you.
I like the stamp wheel and I am considering it for the tool kit. New to card making and looks like a good addition.
Thank you, Simon! Your review was thorough and thoughtful. Great job, as always.
Realistic and honest review. Glad to see your experiments. 😊
Great honest review. Lots to consider and it's always exciting when new tools come out! Thanks so much!!
Great review Simon! I love making wreaths and this makes it so simple. Yeah! Thank you👍❤️
Excellent and thorough review! Thank you!
Great review - well thought out & excellent suggestions, especially both sticky & magnetic!
This was an excellent, in-depth first look and review. Thank you!
Super impressive review! Looks like a really neat tool. TFS
Thanks for the review and suggestions!
Thank you so much for showing us this new stamping tool! I may have to get one to play with my stenciling!
Great review. Thank you for sharing your demo.
I'll be waiting for all extras that you've identified considering how expensive it is!
Great, thorough review, Simon! ❤
This is definitely going on my crafting wish list. Thanks!
Great video Simon. I was curious about the product and you answered all my questions! Great review and suggested hacks!
Great review-thank you!
Loved your review and tips Simon.
That’s so thoughtful of you Laurie, Thanks for your positive review,How are you and how’s the weather over there?
Thank you for this review! Such an interesting product, I would definitely consider it.
Great review! Thanks for the tips on the sticky mat.
Thank you for all your insights. I went ahead a did the pre Order for it. Can't wait for it to arrive!
That stamping wheel is pretty cool looking. I may have to get it. love your cards.
Fantastic video Simon, as usual. You were very honest, warts and all. I love this new tool and the various ways you were able to demonstrate it.
I pre-ordered this & I'm excited to get my hands on it! Thanks for the tips and tricks & the review of it!
I love everything about this
That's a really innovative approach, using that scalloped edge so the whole top can come off. I love the way it can be rotated, and also that it sits completely flat for inking. (That's the one thing I find a little annoying about most stamping platforms, is trying to ink on something that's not quite flat.)
But it looks like it would be a little tricky to fit back into the corners without your stamp hitting the paper surface before you're ready. Is there more of a gap there than we're able to see in the video?
Thanks for your review! I thought it would be great for circular items, and you just confirmed how much more useful it really is. Thanks Simon.
Hey Simon, glad to see you getting your crafty mojo back. Love your videos. Thanks for the video and showing us the new stamping tool.
Thank you so much for this video! I got my notification from Altenew for the preorder and I loved it right away. Glad to hear that it is a quality product. I'm a huge Altenew fan. I have a bunch of layering sets from them. Can't wait to try this with all the techniques you demonstrated!
Can't wait to get my order. I'm hoping you'll do another update This was very informative and convinced me to get one! Thanks for all the information and the wonderful videos you make!
A great video, Simon! Thanks for sharing your experience and thoughts with the new tool!
Great new tool. Thanks for updates. I bought the Misti about 2 months ago, so until I get really good I will use it. You have great videos and explain things in detail. Thanks you so much.
Thanks Simon, I just put in a pre-order… you made me happy that I ordered it. Great demonstration
Excellent technique video - lots to try with my new stamp wheel. Thank you xx
Thank you Simon for doing this video. I think I'm in love with the STAMPWHEEL. As soon as I can I'll get me one!!!
Thank u Simon for the demo. Just purchased the stampwheel will let u know my thoughts but I have a feeling I'm gonna be very happy 😊
Great job with the demo. I am very intrigued by this stamping tool and I think it could be a useful tool for me. Your recommendations are great!
I have watched a few videos on the Stampwheel and your’s is the best - the hack for the card measurement is Great Simon - thank you for a great review
I have been following Altenew on the making of this tool. They have invested a lot of time & money to get it just right. I honestly don’t think it is anymore expensive than the Misti. This is going to be perfect for layering stamps, turnabout stamps, wreath builder, & large background stamps. I find background stamps hard to get a good stamping with the Misti & TH platform. A friend saw this & wanted it so that was my gift to her. Looking forward to what she does with it.
Great review Simon. I plan on getting one myself sometime.
I was watching Jennifer McGuire and saw her using it, but she didn’t do a review, just mentioned it (in that video.) I think it’s such a great idea so I went & pre-ordered mine. It’s supposed to be shipped 3/22. I have been looking for a stamping tool that I like better than my TH one, which honestly, I never became totally comfortable with due to what I think is a lack of cushiness and just a feeling of my own clumsiness with it. I kept wanting to love it, but never could. The StampingWheel looks to be what should work best for me, I think. At $100 bucks, my hopes are high and it’s an investment tool. I do believe it’s more expensive than the Misti, but looks to offer more versatility. I’m really looking forward to getting mine! 😊
Thanks so much Roberta! Glad you found the review helpful and see all of the possibilities in this tool.
I pre-ordered mine. But I never thought about the turn about stamps. I have almost all of them. Thanks for the hint😁I have the mini and regular misti and love them and use them as I mass produce my cards. I think I will love this one as well
@@nancyloomis3046 depends which size you get. My point is there is a lot of time & money spent bringing a new product to reality. Altenew won’t release a product until it is perfect & that is what I love about them.
Very helpful demo!🙏🏽💙😎
Just a suggestion, but rather than moving your cardstock to the different corners for the layering stamps, just rotate the clear wheel for each layer, after you line up and add the stamp layer onto the cardstock and pick it up with the wheel. Then you just have to turn the wheel from 12 to 3 to 6, etc (hope that makes sense. That would save you some effort. I preordered mine a couple of weeks ago, and am looking forward to playing with it. Thanks for your review! (Sorry, I wrote that before I saw the whole review). Love your idea with the sticky mat and the markings - genius!
Exactly what I was thinking!
I want it just for stenciling! Wow! 🎉
Great deomonstration and review, Simon! I think it's pretty cool and worth the money because it has so many features that are amazing! Thank you so much!!!!
I really am considering on purchasing this and like the additional tips you gave! Great job!
