Stampin' Up! has announced they'll be extending the printers tray promotion until September 16th. If you purchase the starter kit before then, you will receive this fun "Howloween" project for FREE (a $75 value). BUT if you act before the end of August, I will give you an ink pad to help you complete this project (and your craft business supplies.
This is such a fun way to start your Stampin' Up! business whether you're looking for your own home based business or just a bit of extra income to make your life easier (and more crafty!). Contact me if you have any questions.
Here's another photo so you can see the finished project and the supplies that you will receive. (the other photo is one that I took at convention of the displayed project)
I've decided it's time to offer a bit of a special for my hostesses. If you book a private class with me in September, the price for each attendee will be $15 ($5 off my regular $20 price). Hostesses are always free.
What's a private class? Well, it's a card making class for you and your friends (as many as you can fit into your space!). Just like my monthly card classes, we'll make 4 cards, complete with envelopes. I will cut everything and have packages ready for you to stamp, Big Shot as necessary and assemble, following instructions and using a sample as visual guide. Sound like fun? It is! Plus, the hostess can earn hostess dollars to spend on merchandise too!
Please note that availability may be limited, so first come first served! Monthly card classes or Christmas Card Stamp a Stacks are not included in this offer. Thanks.
WOOHOO! Stampin’ Up! just announced to demonstrators that the 31% off Digital Sale is being extended to September 14th! Realizing that this is a bit of a crazy time of year for everyone, this gives you a bit more time to take advantage of the digital deals. These downloads work in My Digital Studio – Stampin’ Up!’s digital crafting program – aka MDS, MDS2 which was just released, and any program that can manage .png files (most of the photo editing software out there). I am just getting into MDS2 and working on some tutorial videos for you all.
Or…you can check out this video that I did a while back for MDS – using a template that’s now available in MDS2+. This is how easy it is to create something using the great digital templates available!! Drag and drop 🙂 (if you are reading this in a reader or email, the embedded video may not appear – come to www.yamstamps.com to check it out!)
Second reason that August is Awesome is that there is a BONUS for new demonstrators. Purchase your starter kit for $125 (you get to choose what's in it) and receive the supplies for a super-cute Printer's Tray Project!
If you would like more information about this or not sure what to select for your $155 worth of merchandise in your starter kit, please contact me. I'll be happy to guide you through the process. You can also read more here. Being a Stampin' Up! demonstrator is a great way to have fun, earn money doing something you enjoy, and (dare I say it) fund your own crafting habit?! LOL.
Third Reason August is Awesome – MDS2 is here!! Stampin' Up!'s My Digital Studio software (MDS for short) has been upgraded and updated. I just finished downloading my copy so will get to work on new tutorial videos ASAP.
BONUS Reason August is Awesome – Stampin' Up! has 31 digital downloads on sale, plus 31% discount on printing services during August! See more HERE.
*phew*
If you want more information or are keen to take advantage of any of these awesome happenings, please contact me!
So, internet connection was a bit spotty at times and my posts were postponed LOL. Here’s a few shots from around & about Stampin’ Up!’s Convention.
This is the distribution area of Stampin’ Up! (they were finishing lunch break when we were in this area). Cool to see how automated this system is – boxes are tagged and move in & out of the picking area on a conveyor belt, waiting to be filled with items and then sent on to us!
The theme for convention this year was “I Am” – loved the theme and the song. I posted the video on my facebook page here. The end of the video is the live performance portion at the opening session of convention.
2012 marks 10 years of Stampin’ Up! Canada and this was celebrated by having all the Canadian demonstrators march across the stage. Nice to be recognized that way by the company and other demonstrators 🙂 There was a special march for those of us who were demonstrators in the first year as well.
Here’s the upcoming special which is so fun! If you sign up as a demonstrator in August, you and your upline will both get this cute printer’s tray project – just add ink! I think I might have a special team get together in September to assemble these! More information on being a demonstrator in my group can be found here. Our “Eh” Team group has demonstrators across Canada and we’d love to have you join us – I hope to have demonstrators from each province and territory as part of our group.
I am enjoying being home again, and busy preparing for my upcoming weekend of events – “Eh” Team get together on Saturday, first Christmas Stamp a Stack on Sunday! I hope to see you soon at one of my events. If the dates don’t work for you – let me know and we can get a private class together for you and your friends. Keep your eyes on www.yamstamps.com for more news and events.
I know….what?!!! Just thought I'd catch your eye there. I've been working on my calendar for the rest of the year and I'm planning on doing a series of Christmas Stamp a Stacks. Starting THIS MONTH, and running every month until December, you'll be able to attend and get a huge jump on all those cards you'll need for the holidays. Each Stamp a Stack will feature 8 cards (2 of 4 different designs) and 2 tags. If you register for 4 or more Stamp a Stacks, you'll be eligible for a special draw at each of the Stamp a Stacks that you attend – you could win a Stack of Stampin' Up! Supplies! Please see my Events page to register. Payment is due at time of registration. Registration for Stamp a Stack will be closed ONE WEEK prior to that month's date. Contact me if you have any questions.
