Grab this Offer! Two Free Stamp Sets!

Everyone loves a deal, right? Check out my story below...


 
I had never considered joining Stampin' Up! until November, 2010 when the demonstrator I'd been attending classes with for several years said to me, "Hey did you know the Starter Kit is a really good deal right now?" "No," I said. However, I was having a particularly hard year in my teaching career, and I needed something to take my mind off it, so I thought "Why NOT!"  

Gosh, that has been one of the best decisions I've made. Stampin' Up! holds a very treasured spot in my heart after 11 years. It got me through my final five years of teaching, now after retiring 5-1/2 years ago, it has been such a blessing in my life. I love being my own boss! Who's retired? Not me really!

Stampin' Up! is such a great company, they have the absolute best customer service, and products that are the best in the business. I love their color-coordinated "families" of cardstocks and inks. They make creating cards and more so easy! 

My life has been so enriched by all the wonderful people I've met, the conventions I've attended around the county, the card swaps I've signed up for, and the collection of wonderful products I have accumulated. I have grown as a leader, learned a ton about technology, become empowered in my creativity and confidence. All done in a setting of positivity and encouragement. 

I am currently at the Silver Level within the Stampin' Up! family. The requirement for Silver is to have at least one team member and a certain level of sales in a year which I have. I am very thankful for my two current team members, Anne and Heidi. They have been with me quite a while. I invest time and offer training to help them along. We go to events together. I've adopted another demo when she needed support. The four of us enjoy Zoom team meetings monthly to connect and share.

Maybe my story will help you make your decision...

Let's add up the Value of this Opportunity:
Your cost - $99 Kit plus sales tax - value of items you choose $125
Two Free Stamp Sets from $32 - $52
Free Past Paper Pumpkin Kit $22
Free Kit shipping $20 value
Total Value nearing $200

After you receive your kit:
Demo Discount of 20% minimum on every order you and your customers place.
Small quarterly sales requirement of $300 (that's two $150 demo orders 
and you get more free products with Stampin' Rewards $15 per order when you order $150 or more in one order before shipping and tax.) But you get 20% back on those orders, so it's not really a full $300 that you are spending!

You can also sign up for two free months of Stampin' Up!s Demonstrator Website - that's another $25.90 value!

You are receiving more Value every day with the ability to place a preorder when new catalogs begin ahead of the general public, receive training from Stampin' Up! and me, meet new people, make social media connections, have creative therapy me-time, enjoy recognition when you achieve certain milestones, and so much more!
THIS OPPORTUNITY IS REALLY PRICELESS!

 I'd really love to advance to Silver Elite with a team of five or more, would you consider joining my team? I'd love to have you be part of our group of stampers. We are a fun bunch! It doesn't matter where you are in America, we can still be a team. I will support and encourage you however you want me to.

All you need to sign up is a credit or debit card, and a bank account to 
receive your earnings, and an email address!
Just click this LINK!

I can't wait to team up with YOU!

History and Inspiration - Read all About It!


When I started cardmaking well over 20+ years ago I didn't give it a second thought to inform myself about the interesting history of rubber, rubberstamps, or greeting cards. The only place I went for inspiration was the Stampin' Up! catalog because back then, I purchased one from my local demonstrator. Inside those wonderful catalogs were beautiful photos of cards that I could make or CASE (copy and share everything) if I purchased the needed products. No wonder for a long time Stampin' Up! called it "The Idea Book." 

Sitting here in front of my computer screen this morning, I decided to go down a little rabbit hole and see what I could find on the internet that would cover some of the history of greeting cards, the tools we use to make them, and places we find and share our cardmaking ideas. 

Here's what I've found:

1) A short time line of the History of Greeting Cards

https://www.greetingcard.org/industry-resources/history/

2) A very interesting article about the History of Stamping

https://www.scrapbook.com/articles/the-history-of-stamping

3) Next, I looked up when the "famous" greeting card companies here in America began. American Greetings was first in 1906, followed by Hallmark in 1910. Both of these companies are still in business today. A good product lasts a long time!

4) Of course, none of us would be where we are today without computers. So if you've wondered what all the abbreviations mean - ftp, html, url - here's a short explanation - do go thru all 10 short webpages at the link below. I think it is pretty interesting (but I love history!)


Microsoft was formed in 1975 by Bill Gates and Paul Allen. Apple was formed in 1976 by Steve Jobs. Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne. Computers have turned how we do things upside down. Mostly for the better, but sometimes they can be very frustrating to use.

5) A decade or so later, here comes Stampin' Up! in 1988. Read about their history here

6) What I find interesting is Stampin' Up! existed before all these other companies.

Amazon 1994, Ebay 1995, Google 1998, Splitcoast Stampers 2002 (the first website especially for stampers to share their card designs), Facebook 2004,  You Tube 2005, Etsy 2005, Pinterest and Instagram 2010, and Tik Tok 2016. 

That's pretty cool in my opinion. 

7) Most of us today can't live without our smartphones. I bet many of you think that the first smartphone was from Apple, but read the info at the link below and you'll be surprised. I was!

Smartphone History

---------------------------------

So this little dive into history brings us to today. We have the knowledge of the world at our fingertips. We can create artwork, send digital ecards, do our finances, and shopping all from the comfort of our smartphones no matter where we are in the world.  Back in 1962, AT&T coined this phrase "Let your fingers do the walking" to encourage their customers to use the Yellow Pages section in a paper phone book to find businesses and what they offered in your surrounding community. Now our fingers do the walking across our smartphone screens to find whatever we want around the WORLD! Amazing! Many people can't live without this modern convenience. Neither can I.

Some of us slightly older folks (me!) who were growing up prior to computers and smartphones, still like the ability to make things with our hands. That's why making your own greeting cards, scrapbooks, gift items, and home decor items are still such big business today. We did Do It Yourself when DIY wasn't cool!

Going back to my beginning paragraph idea, Stampin' Up! still puts out an annual catalog and two mini catalogs each year, stocked with beautiful card images and the products for sale to make them with. I give the catalogs away free to my customers so they can be inspired and hopefully purchase something.

Thanks to Pinterest, Instagram, YouTube, and other websites, you can post your finished card projects to share with the world. You can also see other designer's great ideas to adapt for your own cardmaking projects. You may have some favorite companies or card artists that you follow, or You Tube Channels you subscribe to. The creativity and possibilities are limitless!

You might even be one of those people that just sit down and start moving paper, shapes or greetings around until inspiration hits and an amazing project comes to life.

No matter how you approach your cardmaking or papercrafting projects, just be grateful for all that has come before to help us make the awesome projects we do in today's world!

What a Wonderful Papercrafting World We Live In


I have realized I haven't done a good job of inviting people into the Wonderful Papercrafting World we have here in America. Many people have never even heard of Stampin' Up! I hope to change that this week by doing some Q & A here. I'm excited to share with you what I've learned on my papercrafting journey over the last 10+ years. 

Q: Who's in the Papercrafting Community?

A: All types of people, especially those who enjoy being creative with their hands. (Remember coloring books  and sticker books when we were kids? I think those started the journey for me. The feel of the paper, the smell of the ink, trying to stay inside the lines, the taste of licking and sticking stickers on the paper, the hearing of scissors cutting paper, and the visual pleasure when you made something you liked). Papercrafting really encompasses the five senses fully.

Q: But I'm not creative can I still come here to learn?

A: Of course, I'd love to have you learn along with us on my website. Just sign up for my email list and become a follower on this page.

Q: Where else can I go to learn about Papercrafting?

A: There are many avenues in which to learn from besides me. Take a class at a local big box craft store. Come to a home class with an Independent Demonstrator from one of several papercrafting companies out there. Buy a Papercrafting magazine. Sign up for a monthly subscription kit to try. Check out some papercrafting books at the library. View some You Tube Videos on this topic. Join a Facebook group. Sign up for a Community College class. Or just create something from items you already have a home. Most people have some paper, scissors, and writing/coloring tools to get started with. A lot of Papercrafting is just about experimenting with what you have and not being afraid to try. 

Q: Does Papercrafting cost a lot to get started?

A: Depending how deep you go, yes, it can become an investment in tools and supplies. A lot depends on what you might already have around your home or apartment. For example, you may already have a paper cutter on hand, a bottle of glue or glue stick, scissors, and even a variety of cards you could recycle/upcycle into a new piece of art. That will get you started.

Q: What kinds of Papercrafting are out there?

A: There's a lot! Cardmaking in a variety of sizes, Scrapbooking pages and albums, 3D items like gift boxes or bags, wedding invitations, party favors, journal book making, mixed media, home decor items, items for gifts, digital design, sticker design, origami, quilling, paper modeling, paper airplane design, pop up cards, print making, making your own envelopes, and even carving your own stamps. And that's just a start!

Q: Could you use a little extra income?

A: Selling your papercrafts is a fun way to meet new people at street fairs, craft shows, home bazaars, farmer's markets, and even virtual online shows through Facebook. You can open up your own Etsy store or one of the other ecommerce store sites.  Again there are many options out there.

Q: So who is Stampin' Up! anyway?

A: Stampin' Up! is a papercrafting company based in Riverton, Utah with another stamp producing facility in Kanab, Utah. They have been in business for 32 years and the original founder is still part of the Board of Directors, but she has passed the CEO reins down to her daughter. Stampin' Up! has approximately 60,000 Independent Demonstrators worldwide in America, Canada, a few European countries (Germany, Austria, France, and the Netherlands), and the South Pacific (Australia and New Zealand.) These people are some of the most helpful and nice people I have ever met!

Of course I'm partial to Stampin' Up! products since I'm an Independent Demonstrator for them for 10 + years now. (I do own a few non-Stampin' Up! items, but not too many.)

One of the things that makes this direct sales company so special is they have four color families of coordinated cardstock colors and two lines of In-Colors that last for two year intervals, plus all their other specialty papers and inks are color coordinated, so you can't go wrong when choosing colors that go together for your projects. Even their embellishments and ribbons match. Their quality is outstanding and you get a great value for your money because their products last a very long time!

In my opinion they have the best customer service I've ever encountered as their motto is to make things right!

Come back tomorrow to learn more. I've got lots to share this week. If you have a question or comment please let me know. I'm here to help.  Have a wonderful day!
