Apr 15, 2012 | Announcements, Retired List
It's that time of year – making room for the new by clearing out some of the old. Stampin' Up! always retires a number of sets to keep up to current artistic and creative trends, plus to make room for new and exciting sets in the new catalogue! See HERE for an excel spreadsheet or HERE for a pdf version of the list. If you'd like anything on the list, please be sure to place your order before the end of May. If you're in Canada, you can place your order online HERE or contact me directly if you're close to the Burlington area.

I thought I should post this card since it expresses my thoughts today – thank you! It's been a decade (eek!) since I became a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator in Canada. I have had so much fun – making new friends, being creative, earning an extra income to fund my crafting habit and other interests…recently I've reaped the rewards of keeping at this for so long – I've earned recognition for reaching career sales levels and sharing this fun job with others!
This fun thank you card showcases an easy techique. You stamp the image in Whisper White craft ink, and then outline the image with a Versamarker to make it "pop". Very fun. Inspired by a card somewhere out there in cyberspace… I used Melon Mambo embossing powder on the popped flower too. Stamp sets used: Mixed Bunch & Teeny Tiny Wishes Supplies: Whisper White Craft Ink, Versamarker, Blossom Punch, Modern Label punch, Crumb Cake cardstock, Whisper White cardstock

This is so cool! A timeline of Stampin' Up! in Canada.
<– and this is me – I was one of the first 94 Canadian demos in April 2002!
This has been a fantastic, fun choice that I made a decade ago. Initially, I intended only to purchase my own crafting items and perhaps help a few friends with their craft supply needs…. but then word got out that I was doing Stampin' Up! (at the time, I was the ONLY person in my neck of the woods in British Columbia to do so)… I started to do workshops for friends and people who became friends, had some friends sign up as demonstrators and then I moved my business across the country! I returned to Ontario, where I'd grown up, to be closer to family, and found that my Stampin' Up! business was easily transportable. Here I stay, and now looking forward to celebrating 10 years of my business and 10 years of Stampin' Up! Canada.
Thank you for being part of my business over the past decade! I guess I'll have to find some special way to celebrate the exact day….hmmmmm….
