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.

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? :)

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.

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.

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.

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

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!

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.

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).

Thanks for this great review, Simon! I must say that the rotation technique in stamping is not a totally unique one, but Altenew’s version of stamping rotation in this tool certainly is and the best is that it gives you the accuracy needed for EXACT REPEAT STAMPING which is what made the Misti such a hit. For some of you viewers who go a ways back, you may recall that InkaDinkaDoo (out of business and no longer available) had a line of stamping tools that were plastic circles (and maybe squares) with notches in the circles where you could adhere clear stamps to a mount and then placing the mounted and inked up stamp in each notch to create a kind of frame. I still have mine but rarely use it. Lindsay, the Frugal Crafter has one too and pulled it out to demonstrate it one time. There are other brands that have created kind of “press down” stamping tools, but not with the accuracy and ability to do exact placement re-stamping as needed along with the great versatility of the StampingWheel. I’ve already pre-ordered mine and can’t wait to use it!

Love the stampwheel! I have two and that allows me to have 16 or even more stamps on it at one time!

Thanks for a really informative video. I didn’t realize what the stamp wheel was. I have several stamping platforms, but glad to see that this one is different. Thanks for all your info.

Thank you for sharing and instructing on how to use Altenew's Stamping Wheel. It's one I'll look into for the future. I love how you can use it for stenciling. That's the selling point for me. I'm going to order some of those sticky mats in the future. Have a wonderful Wednesday.

Simon, Thank you for your awesome, unbiased and thorough review and your great ideas. I have all of the different size Misti. Love and use them all and will continue to do so. I have been waiting patiently for the Altenew Stampwheel. I saw it demoed at Creativation last year. I thought it was pretty cool so I pre-ordered it right away. I know it is made well because it’s an Altenew. And--It now has the Simon Hurley seal of approval! Woohoo!😊 Can’t wait to get my hands on it.

I love the innovative approach to stamping repeats, with more angle options than the other rotating templates/tools. Thanks for the thorough demo and honest review Simon. I always love your enthusiasm for the art and the industry.

I love my stamp wheel! It is so versatile in so many ways! Worth every penny to me because it is such a high-quality product and makes my stamping so much easier and quicker. Great video.

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!

Super awesome demo, tfs! And also I appreciate the lessons in grace and poise I've learnt from the making community; I've had to restructure large swaths of myself after learning I have PTSD, and deliberately chose to follow the examples of J. McGuire, T. Holtz, and so many otthers modeling positive behaviours and choices.

Thank you so much for your review and your edits. I pre-ordered one the other day because I feel like this is a tool that can be added on to with different purposes (i.e. different wheels, stamp sets and specialty stencils all for use with this product), thus making it even more worth the investment. Great job reviewing as I was a little skeptical about the pre-order.

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!

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!

I really appreciate another unbiased perspective on this product. I have numerous platforms and was not sure, given the price, whether I needed this one. However after watching the Altenew blog hop videos and yours, I am seriously considering. I am glad you showed the red rubber stamps as that was one of my questions but I am thinking the foam mounted red rubber would be too thick to use it. Now I think it is a unique new tool but you did point out some small drawbacks so I might wait for the next generation of the tool as I am betting they will make some of these improvements. Thank you!

Thank you for your video and the review of the Alteew Stampwheel. I have to admit when I first saw the Stampwheel I wanted to rush out and buy it but after your comments I will not do this as I rarely do wreaths and I don't own any layering stamps. I have a Misti and find this is great for what I do and I have a turn around mask thingy (which I made myself) and this works fine for what I need. Your review was honest and excellent. I think a lot of people will still purchase this Stampwheel and Altenew deserve praise for designing it.

Simon, thanks for this thorough review. One thought I have on it is that it takes up a smaller amount of my workspace when I am creating. And when I am creating, I tend to get very messy and my workspace gets smaller and smaller! Lol so using a misty when you have to flip the lid open, I usually have to clear stuff out of the way in order to have it lie flat and apply the ink. I’m thinking this tool will not have that issue. I’m planning to purchase it and I’m excited to try it out. Thanks again for a great review

Excellent review! I didn’t see the point in this until your demonstration. It’s based on a similar idea to the envelope punch pads but so much more! Didn’t think I would use one but now it’s on my list. Thanks, Simon!
