These are a few cards I made to order late last year.
The first is a wedding acceptance card where the theme of the wedding was Pink and Silver …
The second is a wedding acceptance card where the theme of the wedding was red and gold …
and the last card was for a kitchen tea …
I apologise for the poor flash photography in the first two photos, it distorts the true look of the cards. Would you like to know how to do any of the techniques I have used for these cards?
For anyone interested in handcrafting cards for the special people in their lives, I will be offering classes for you this year as follows:
Bookings for classes are essential.
The first class of the year begins at 7.30pm, Friday 8th February 2008 for Valentine’s Day. Please contact me no later than Wednesday 6th February 2008 to ensure your place. Looking forward to seeing you at my place!
If you cannot make my classes, the why not organise a minimum of 4 people together (including yourself) and book me to visit your home for a personalised card making class. Contact me today to arrange a date!
Would you make a Valentine’s Day card for your partner?
This is fantastic news! For all those creative friends would thought, maybe if the 10% off the Starter Kit hadn’t ended so soon after Christmas … they would have bought it. Well, now you have until 28 February 2008 to purchase the Starter Kit for $291.60 instead of $664.95. Incredible value! Know too, you can select many of the products you receive. Personalise your own Starter Kit!
If you think, you love stamping but aren’t interested in joining because of the business side of Stampin’ Up,! then please read on …
No Time? If you love something, you make time. Time is in short supply for so many of us. But being a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator is such a flexible job. You can choose when you want to book workshops and how many (if at all). I have three children (born 3 and under) all at home, and I crave to go out and stamp!
Minimum Quota? My greatest concern was how much did I have to spend to get my discount? I was surprised to learn the quota is only $550 (inc GST) of commissionable sales within the 3 months. That seemed possible! My next concern was what happened if I didn’t meet it? Well, at any time you decide that you can’t meet the quota there is no penalty, you simply stop becoming a demonstrator and can return to being a customer. If after buying the fantastically discounted kit you decide SU! isn’t for you then that’s not a problem. You don’t have to meet any shortfalls or pay back your kit. Have I found my concerns a problem for me since joining? Not in the slightest!
Don’t want to do workshops? Perhaps you don’t want to run workshops and only want the discount … well, bear in mind, your quota is only $550 of RRPs on the catalogue. Perhaps you have a friend or two who will purchase from you every few months? Offer them your discount and help each other out.
Yearly fees? None whatsoever! There are no joining fees (except purchasing your Starter Kit). There are no ongoing monthly, yearly, exit or any other type of fees.
No creativity? Between Stampin’ Up! and my upline’s team forum you could do workshops for years and never have to come up with new ideas for workshops! Stampin’ Up! have an extensive demonstrator support website. Every month new ideas for workshops are shown with tips and ideas for being a successful demonstrator.
Who is Stampin’ Up! ? SU! started up more than 18 years ago and have only moved into the Australian market in the last 2-3 years. That means the opportunities are still growing every year for SU! Demos in Australia. Even when our new catalogue comes out on 1 April 2008, there should be so many MORE stamp sets and products added that it will be bigger and better! And I thought it was great now 🙂
And what are the benefits?
So if you live anywhere in Australia and would like to have some more information about Stampin’ Up! or join Stampin’ Up! contact me today!
Post a comment … tell me, if you could pick a $79.95 stamp set from the catalogue here … what stamp set would you choose?
Someone I know had his father pass away yesterday at only the age of 69 years. This is the Sympathy card I have made to send. 
Do you like the invitation I made for my Sale-A-Bration Launch party? I even put a magnet on the back so it could be stuck on the fridge 🙂
I hope by now everyone has received their invitation in the snail mail! If you haven’t, then please do consider this your invitation to come along as well. Please, book in Friday, 18th January 2008, 7.30pm onwards in your diaries at 7 Parklea Drive, Parklea.
It will be a night of fun with door prizes, make and take projects (at least 1 female birthday card, so far), free crafty stuff, champagne and nibbles. Bring a friend along and have a fun night out experiencing something different!
See you then!
