Default SU website is down - 2nd day in row!

Hi!
I decided to check out SU foam adhesive strips after seeing Jen McGuire use them. I didn't even know SU had this product. Anyway, I hopped over to SU website and it said it was down. Checked multiple times yesterday and again today and it's the same story.

Anyway, would one of you who has used this product let me know a little about it and how well you like using it? Is the foam the same depth/thickness as the stampin dimensionals? What is the width/length of the strips? Price for item and amount in package would also be appreciated.

Thanks much for your help with this! I will be putting an order in when a friend puts in a stamp club order soon and I would like to add this to my order if it gets good reviews. 😎

I had no difficulty accessing the site just now.

Here's a direct link to the strips.

I would try going to the page and hitting refresh. If that doesn't work, I guess try clearing your cache/browsing history. Sometimes error messages/pages get stuck in your browser and you need to force them out.

And if that doesn't work, then I've got nothin'.

Hi Susy,
Maybe you already got on the SU site, but after seeing JM's video I had to check them out myself! How did I not see these?! I copied and pasted the description:

Foam Adhesive Strips 141825
Price: $8.00
Sheet of adhesive white foam strips for shaker
and spinner cards.

*1/8" x 9" (3.2 mm x 22.9 cm)
* 10 yards (9.1 m) total

Less than $1 per yard...sold!! LOL!

These really are a hidden gem in the SU! catalog! I have them and have been very happy with them. They make creating shaker cards so easy because the strips are easily shaped.

Demo friend said she saw the new SAB items today! I get to see them Saturday, although can't order until the 21st.

Hi Nicole,
Thanks for your input! It sounds so much easier than piecing together strips of foam tape or foam sheets. When I do that, no matter how close I place the pieces my little shaker bits get stuck in between. I will definitely check these out! Love that they are narrow so I don't have to trim the width.!

The foam strips are the bomb. For mine, they are thicker than dimensionals. But it could be my dimensionals, I have a stash that I'm working through before I order more.

Thanks for the advice (dump the cookies! ) and for the valuable info about the foam strips.

I was hoping they were the same thickness as dimensionals, but I will get one pack to try before ordering more,

Again, thank for all of you chiming in on my questions! 👍
