1. A Larger Workspace for Bigger, Better Projects

One of the most exciting upgrades in the Stampwheel 2.0 is its expanded workspace. The new 13” x 13” Flip Plate and 10.5” x 10.5” stage ensure ample room for larger stamps, stencils, and paper. This means you no longer have to limit your designs to smaller dimensions or compromise on your creative vision.

With more space to work with, you can create oversized cards, scrapbook layouts, wall art, or intricate wreath patterns with ease. Plus, the larger 9” x 9” Sticky Mat keeps your paper securely in place, letting you focus on crafting instead of adjusting or repositioning materials.

2. Detachable Side for Unlimited Flexibility

The Stampwheel 2.0 takes flexibility to the next level with its detachable right side. This clever feature allows you to accommodate larger paper, stamps, or stencils, giving you the freedom to tackle a wide variety of projects. Are you working on scrapbook pages or large backgrounds? No problem! Want to layer stamps that extend beyond the frame? The Stampwheel 2.0 makes it easy.

This removable side makes the tool highly adaptable, ensuring it fits seamlessly into your crafting workflow—no matter how ambitious your project is.

3. Flawless Precision with Every Impression

There’s nothing worse than stamping a design only to realize it’s misaligned or uneven. The Stampwheel 2.0 eliminates this frustration with its precision inch scales on both sides of the frame. These guides make alignment a breeze, helping you achieve perfect results every time.

Additionally, the rotational clear plate locks into place at 16 equal intervals, allowing you to stamp consistently without the guesswork. This is especially helpful for creating symmetrical designs like wreaths or geometric patterns, where accuracy is key.

4. Enhanced Sticky Mat for Better Hold

The Stampwheel 2.0 comes with a high-quality photopolymer Sticky Mat, designed to hold your paper and stencils in place. Unlike traditional mats that may lose their grip over time, the photopolymer material ensures durability and reliability.

The grid design on the Sticky Mat also helps with alignment, making it easier to position your projects just the way you want. Whether you're working with small details or large designs, the Sticky Mat ensures your crafting surface stays stable and organized.
