For the Love of Stamping

Hero Arts

Hello friends,

You may have heard that Ellison, the parent company of Sizzix, has made claims of patent infringement against a number of companies in our industry, including Hero Arts.

Just so you know, there is absolutely no reason to change any purchasing patterns with Hero Arts, as Hero Arts does not infringe, believes the lawsuit is without merit, and intends to fight this lawsuit and win for the good of Hero Arts and the industry. Whether we like it or not, the legal process is a method to resolve disputes, and we must let that play out.

There is no reason to allow a chill on creativity or a disruption to business to creep into our beloved industry despite the current situation. In fact, let's work to do just the opposite and rally together to make our community even stronger. Hero Arts and the other companies involved remain the same creative, reliable, top selling brands you trust and love.

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask us at info@heroarts.com or leave a comment.

Yours in creativity,

    I stand with you! My Monthly Hero is by far my favorite stamp box. Hero Arts stamps and inks were some of my first when I started crafting. I am behind the 5 of you all the way!

    You have my 100% support!!! I don’t buy many Sizzix products, but now have a complete boycott of them. People vote with their money and I hope the feel the pinch of their poor choice. Only in free and open markets do we all benefit the most! I can only imagine the financial cost and emotional strain this must be for you all. I’m so sorry you all are being bullied in this manner. Please keep us informed on anything we as consumers can do to help!!!
