Default Impression Obsession - new chapter

This information was sent out to the IO mailing list this weekend:

Quote:

A new chapter...

For 24 years, Impression Obsession has been proud to produce the finest quality red rubber stamps in the industry. It is with great sadness that I have made the decision to close a chapter in my company’s history with the announcement that effective April 30, 2022, Impression Obsession will no longer produce red rubber stamps as we have done for all these years. I appreciate the many, many customers we have gotten to know over the years, and the amount of enthusiasm you have shown about our products has kept us going through all of the challenges that running any business brings, and more so through the pandemic.

Over the past few years, our expenses have risen so dramatically that making red rubber stamps from a catalog of 20,000+ images is no longer viable. We are excited to have an opportunity to add new products to our line, focus more energy on designing fabulous clear sets and dies, and taking Impression Obsession in an exciting new direction. We will also be keeping our red rubber Cover-a-Card background stamps, and our popular Slimline stamps for now.

To commemorate this bittersweet ending we are having a 20% off sale that extends through all of April (code: 2022). Get those stamps you've wanted forever off your wish lists at a discount! And stay tuned for lots of exciting new things coming up!

Sincerely,
Mitra Palmer
Owner
Impression Obsession, Inc.

New! Limited Edition Red Rubber Cling Sets

While we are discontinuing our catalog of individual red rubber stamps, we are adding a new monthly set of stamps that comes packaged in a plastic storage container with an idea sheet insert with multiple sample cards for inspiration. These sets will only be available for one month and then we will retire them. This month's set is an adorable spring-themed set, so cute and perfect for the season!

I am such a fan of their terrific red rubber stamps and they will always remain a cherished part of my Stamp collection. Good art never goes out of style and I am so happy to have collected some that I have grown to love and use often.
