Tag: become a demonstrator

  • Samples from the Stamp & Share

    Whew!  What a fun but busy weekend.  I’m working on getting everything together for my Tuesday Technique Night on Blendabilities so I thought I would share a few of the awesome ideas that were on display at the Stamp & Share this weekend!

    If you didn’t catch what this event was, it was a demonstrator event that I’ve been putting together where we can get together and share ideas, stamping techniques, projects, and just have a great time with fellow demonstrators.  For this event we had two stamping presentations:

    Stacey Lane showed us how to make CUTE ornaments using the Simply Pressed clay and our stamps!

    2014-08-23 13.33.39

    And Kathy Thisted shared tips and information on Blendabilities.

    2014-08-23 13.56.04

    And of course there were lots of samples to look at as well.

    These were some of the cards in the card contest for the event:

    2014-08-23 13.42.48

    2014-08-23 13.42.40

    My photos turned out terribly of the boards but this was some of the Holiday Catalog cards on display:

    2014-08-23 16.36.37

    2014-08-23 16.36.29

    My presenter gifts were these fun Santa boxes made with the upcoming Curvy Keepsake Box (I’m totally doing a class with this box to show you all the AMAZING people and animals you can make with this!)

    2014-08-23 16.36.44-2

    And more ideas on display including a canvas from Ikea colored with Blendabilities (did you know this started out as Black and White from the store??)

    2014-08-23 16.38.23

    A fun card using the Banner punch created by Karen Trainer:

    2014-08-23 16.17.45

    And awesome card by Sandra Alonzo and amazing ornament by Nichole Smith using the Bright & Beautiful stamp set and star framelit (still available as a free bundle when you buy a Big Shot or at 15% off if you just want the bundle!  Only through the end of the month!)

    2014-08-23 16.37.09

    It was a super fun afternoon and thank you so much to everyone who was able to make it!  I look forward to making the next one even better. Smile

  • Short & Sweet Promotion! Get $150 in your Stampin’ Up Starter Kit for only $99!

    They changed the dates on me!  I had shared on my Facebook page that this promotion was going to be starting tomorrow but they decided to start it early!

    Join the fun of the Stampin’ Up! family and get a BONUS $25 of product in your starter kit

    As I’m betting you can tell, I love my job.  But what makes me really love it is all the people I meet through Stampin’ Up!  From my customers and the friendships we’ve made, to the other demonstrators that we share our excitement (and I’ll admit, obsession) with each other!  But I especially love my group that continues to grow and support and inspire each other.  I can’t imagine doing this without them – we really are Fun n’ Crafty stampers. Smile 

    The best part is, you can do as much or as little as you want with your demonstratorship.

    • I have some folks who are working their business and earning extra money from their love of stamping.
    • I have some folks who are a demonstrator because they love getting 20% or more off everything they purchase
    • I have some folks who are demonstrators because they love the community and inspiration they get

    Get started by picking out $150 from your wishlist and get it for only $99 + tax…shipping is FREE!

    Why is now an awesome time to go for it?

    1. You can pick anything from the Holiday Catalog in your starter kit right now!  Get going on your holiday wish list!
    2. On your next order of $150 or more (share the holiday catalog with some friends or plan a fun event using one of the project kits for a craft night) you’ll earn 30% commission on everything people buy or just use that as a 30% discount for yourself.
    3. With the holiday catalog about to launch and fall craft fairs getting started, this is a perfect time to save on your supplies and earn some money on the side when everyone wants to get the supplies to make these cute things for themselves.
    4. You know shipping on the starter kit is free, right? 
    5. If you join now, you have until the end of December to make your minimums which means buying a few holiday gifts (or having family buy Stampin’ Up gifts for you) and you are good to go through March!
    6. We have lots of great demonstrator events happening with Stampin’ Up and within my Fun n’ Crafty stampers group and we’d love to have you join us!
    7. And I’m here to help you get the most out of your Stampin’ Up experience too!  Let me know where you want to go with this and I’ll help get you connected to the resources to do it. Smile

    But lets talk about the best deal by far they have this year –

    The Starter Kit!

  • A Clean and Simple Holiday Card

    When I was at the Stampin’ Up! regionals in Portland, I saw a demonstration that showed how cute a scalloped edge could be on a card.  I got inspired by the example and started playing with a card layout that has evolved into this design which I really like. 

    I have made this design in the past using Whisper White cardstock as the base with Cherry Cobbler accents but I had some scraps lying around and so went ahead and tried it with Soft Suede.  It looks really nice in person (better than I think it shows in the picture).  The other thing I vary with this card – in this example I used a strip of Soft Suede cardstock for the string the ornament is hanging on, but when I used a white base, I really like using Early Espresso narrow taffeta ribbon.

    Thanks for looking! 

    Happy Holidays Card Recipe:
    Stamps:      Tags Til Christmas, Many Merry Messages
    Ink:  Cherry Cobbler, Early Espresso
    Paper:  Whisper White CS, Cherry Cobbler CS, Soft Suede CS
    Accessories:  Ornament Punch, Scallop Trim Punch, Adhesive Rhinestones, Stampin” Dimensionals
