The FACTS of LIFE (if you're addicted to Stamps!)

Warning: Long winded post ahead!
I get asked this question all the time “What comes in the Stampin’ Up Starter kit?” The next question is “Ok, so what’s the catch?” or “what do I have to do to stay active?”
(I realize that a lot of you reading this are demonstrators and already know the ins and outs so if you stop reading, I won’t be offended!)

No sugarcoating- just the facts, ma’am!
What comes in the Kit? The Starter kit contains $335 worth of products for 199.00 - and now you can pay for it it three easy payments.
- You choose 4 stamp sets, this price or lower: 21.95, 28.95, 32.95, 37.95.
- One regular wheel 6.50
- A handle for your wheel
- Choose your ink cartridge color for wheel
- Full box of pastels (49 colors)
- 2 packs of assorted cardstock (choose your color group) 72 sheets total
- Pack of white or vanilla cardstock - 40 sheets
- Snail adhesive (refillable)
- Choose a 20.95 Décor Element (vinyl)
- Stampin’ Scrub and mist cleaner (a must for any stamper!)
- Versamark pad (clear ink used for watermarks or embossing)
- 3 Blender Pens
- 5 classic ink pads, your choice of color
- Tons of business supplies like a box of 8 catalogs, mini catalogs, our Demonstrator magazine and order forms.
What is the catch? Other than a totally addictive hobby, it’s pretty easy. I’ve had more trouble and headaches trying to switch cell phone plans. That took 3 hours. Signing up to be a demonstrator? 20 minutes. Online. And you get your password to go onto the Demonstrator Only Website right away while you wait for your kit to arrive in a week to 10 days. What if I decide to not place any orders and just enjoy my kit? Stampin ‘Up will just drop you after your quarter is up. No penalties, nothing to give back, no note sent home to your parents.

How much do I have to order to stay active? $300 retail. The Stampin’ Up quarter runs Jan, Feb, March. So if you sign up Feb 1st, you would get your first quarter free of minimums. Apr-may-June is the next quarter so you would have to your $300 in orders by the end of June. It can be ALL at once, or in smaller orders. With just your own orders or friends adding to it. You can be your own hostess, so with your 20% off as a demonstrator, the 300 goes down to 240.00 but then add back in 10% shipping and then tax. If you are 7% tax like me, then it comes out to around 285.00. BUT as your own hostess, you can get a free hostess set and 25.00 free merch. So it pays off if you are looking for a discount and you are going to spending that much on stamp stuff anyway.
Bonus: This is why some people sign up if they have a huge wish list or want something big like the BIG SHOT: You get 30% (instead of 20%) off your first order over 150.00 if you place it within 45 days of signing up. Be your own hostess + get a big discount = no brainer.
How do I know who to sign up with?
Do you want/need lots of training in stamping techniques or computer help? Do you want to stamp with a group or attend events or meetings?
Then I would recommend that you should find someone local to sign up with. Find a demonstrator who has monthly or quarterly events or training so you can learn all you can and stamp often! Our group here in Davis County meets monthly and we have a great time stamping together. Use the demo locator on the SU website at http://www.stampinup.com/ and click on Find a Demonstrator. Look for someone with a website and check out her events.
If you are already a seasoned stamper who doesn’t necessarily need one-on-one training, decent on the computer and is happy to do your own thing, then it isn’t as important to sign up with someone locally. Personally I would sign up with someone who has been doing it for more than a few years, is established and offers some long distance support.

Do I have to have classes or workshops?
Some demonstrators do it as a career and support themselves full time with it. It’s a lot of work but it can be done. More than half of the demonstrators in my group do it just for the discount or hobby. There is no requirement to host or teach any classes. Now if you want help with putting in the orders, we call those Bread and Butter customers. Those are the friends or family that you can stamp with each month or every other month so they can order a few things from you. Every little bit helps! And if you are like me, one day you may need extra money and that’s how I started doing it more as a business. When times get tough, sell stamps!
What is in the Demonstrator Only Website?
Gee whiz, there is so much in there that I couldn’t list it all. 5 years of back issues of our Stampin’ Success magazines (which arrive in our mail monthly), projects, templates, articles, some videos, Stamper’s Showcase (3-4 samples uploaded daily from demonstrators who submitted their samples) and Workshop Wizard, which has more projects.
Some people sign up just for the preorders. Maybe this has happened to you: You are on a website and see this awesomely cute card and say “I want that set!” but it’s not available for another month and then you get mad because the demonstrators already have it and are using it? Then you should be a demonstrator and get the upcoming mini catalogs or promotional stuff before anyone else!

If you have more questions, feel free to call or email me anytime. I’d be happy to steer you to the upline who is right for you to sign up with or sign you up with me to be a part of my group.
How do I sign up? A lot of demonstrators have a DBWS, which is a Demonstrator Business Website. As demonstrators, we pay 12.95 a month for it and it is wonderful! Stampin’ Up keeps it updated for us and we can add our own projects, calendar and special touches. One of the perks is that you can sign up online and get your demonstrator password immediately! Mine is http://www.getstampy.stampinup.net/ and you can check it out. Whoever you sign up with, you will need a recruiter password. (Mine is GETSTAMPY for those who are ready to sign up!)

Congrats on making it through a very long post!

World Card Making Day

We Had a great time celebrating World Card Making Day on Saturday. I decided to try and get a jump start on Christmas Cards. Mainly to get my rear in gear, since I've never sent out Christmas cards. Shhh, Don't tell anyone. I've justified to myself by saying "I've sent out cute Baby Announcements!" I guess that that was only a good excuse for the two years I had my kids. Well, you can get me on record for saying that I'm going to get them done this year!
These are the 10 cards we did. The cards were done in pairs. The ingredients for a pair or the card were almost the same. (At least using the same ink and cardstock, and supplies as their partner.) Some were easier than others, but all in all, everyone's turned out darling.

This was my sister's favorite card from the stack. No Stamping involved. She's such a complainer if she can't stamp something straight. Like some other people I know...You know who you are! "Don't be scared of the stamps!...It's just paper, you won't hurt it."
This card uses the new Felt Flurries from the Holiday Mini. Paper Piercing, White gel pen and White Grosgrain Ribbon.

Sorry about this bad photo of this one. We used Lovely as a Tree set and Sincere Salutations. Stamp the big tree 1st. Mask it with a post-it. Cut the third largest oval with the coluzzle and layer that over the masked tree. Stamp the group of trees with the same Mellow Moss ink and sponge a little Blue ink with a Stipple brush for the sky. Remove the oval mask and stamp greeting. Put the oval mask over and paper pierce around the group of trees. Tie Moss Gingham ribbon around card. Add dazzling diamonds (in the picture, they don't show up, but look really pretty IRL) to the ground and the trees.

Using the Punch Pals set make a cute wreath out of the Scallop Circe and the 1 1/4 " Circle punches. Only one ink Color on this one: Garden Green. Other sets used are: Taffy Alphabet and Canvas Background (again, sorry that in the photo, it doesn't show up)

Same Punch Pal Set. Stamped Penguin and Tree in Basic Black ink. Outlined images with markers and added Red Gingham ribbon for a scarf. I saw Brent Steel at convention a few years ago stamp this cute guy holding the tree. Thanks Brent for the inspiration!

This Cute little Gingerbread man is from the Deer Friends Hostess level 2 set. Isn't he cute?! Used a wheel for the stars on top and the Happy everything set. All Chocolate Chip ink.

I used my sideline Vicky's idea of dying Crystal Effects with Re-inker ink to make the shinny red nose for Rudolph. Just make sure to let the Crystal Effects dry for a long time. I'm talking 40 minutes before you even touch him to put the card together. I had my gals stamp this one first and finish it last!

This is a pocket card. Held together with Blue Grosgrain Ribbon and Blue Gingham ribbon. The Picture cut half of it off. I really need to improve my photography skills! Two Cool Dudes set for this one. Only Pacific Point Ink on this one. There was bashful blue ink in the Snowflakes wheel, though. Stamp two Snowmen, and cut one out and pop up with dimensional. There is scraps of cardstock to the left of the snowman, because my shipment of Pacific Point Stripped Ribbon didn't show up in time, and I felt like it needed something.

Same ink and stamp set for this one. Used 1/2" and 3/4" circle punches to punch this snowman out. Need to stamp him three times. But ain't he cute!

Here we did Versamark and Garden Green Chalk for an oldie but goody technique called Poppin' Pastels. But I had them to a cool fold for the card. Used our new Square Scallop Punch Love it!) and the Punches Three Hostess Level 1 set. See the Green Circle that has a Slit Punch inside it that hold the red Cardstock down, til you pull the card open? It's the Inside Circle that you punched out of the Wreath for the "Joy" card above. I wasn't going to waste it! LOL.

Versamark on Garden Green and punched out with the same Scallop Square punch. Used dimensionals to attach. Red Riding Hood Ink and Ribbon. Another new punch added to the bottom...The Scallop Edge Punch! Added White gel pen dots. Easy Peasy.

Hope this inspires you (and me) to get those Christmas cards done early so you're able to enjoy time with those you love (and have to get together with) this upcoming the holiday season.

Father's Day Cards

I made some of these father day cards. I learned how to fold the ties here.

The white shirt card takes one cut about an inch down the middle of the front of the card and then folded from that point to the edges.

The blue shirt card takes two cuts on the outside edges. There is a video tutorial in the last 45 seconds of this video. Easy Peasy.

Fresh cuts Card

This card only took me 2 min. to make! I even had to put my stamps together! Seriously. The die cuts stamps and card make this super quick! I stamped the large background in Certainly Celery. And the saying in Basic Gray. I used out our 5-petal flower punch with Basic Gray cardstock and but a brad through the middle.

I also whipped up another card with one of the leftover pieces that you punch out from your laser cut flower. I thought it looked like the flame of a birthday candle. I just sponged it with a little barely banana ink. I just used scraps that I had laying around from other cards to throw this one together. I always save all my scraps, "thinking" I'll use them, and I finally did!

Plus there will be extra supplies to make cards or add to additional scrapbook pages!

The Class is Friday, May 30th. (choose a time) 9 am, Noon, or 6 pm. My house.

The cost is $20 and the sign-up deadline is the 23rd. If you bring a friend, you will get a gift from me. Bring more than one friend and I'll knock off $5 for every friend you sign-up plus a gift. If you bring more than 4 friends, well, I will have to figure that one out!

abc chipboard book

Here is a book I made out of the On Board Bitty Book and chipboard Letters from Stampin'Up. I covered the book with Designer Series paper and sanded the edges of the book to take off the excess paper. Gives a clean finished edge. I used Craft ink to dye the "a" and "c" letters. The "B" I also covered with paper...except the inside peices I also used Craft ink on.

The book comes with page protectors and I wheeled Whisper White CS with "My ABC's" wheel and wrote in the letters. Yes, wrote in the letters! The ABC Alphabet by SU fits perfect on the wheel lines, but I don't have that set! Hard to believe! If anyone would like to help me in reminding my husband that I DO need more stamps, I can surely give you his e-mail address! hehe. I made this so Bailey could use a dry erase marker to practice writing her letters (the page protectors make it possible to wipe off and write over and over again.) But alas, I haven't put all the pages into the book yet and she is getting so good at writing even without this cute book, I might just have to be selfish and keep it all to myself!

Here is the back of the book. For the Images that cordinate with the letters, I stamped and colored then punched out with the 3/4" circle punch. I used the word window punch, folded in half and then adhered the circles on either side of the page.

A Hip Hippo-ray!

Isn't this hippo so cute? He's out of a set named Pun Fun. It's one of the 6 sets that if you purchase the stamps, you get the jumbo wheel that cordinates for FREE! You have til the end of the month to take advantage of this promotion!

Three Colums! Yea!!

Does my blog look different to you? I have been trying to add a side column on the left and finally did it!!!! Don't ask me how, I just messed around with the HTML forever! I've tried to change it before and haven't been successful. Anyway, let me know if you like the layout!

Here is the slider card close up, since my video skills aren't up to par, yet!

Easter Sunday Girls

Here are the girls Easter Sunday...ready to go to church, but not without a fight! They look all smiles now, but Bailey sure didn't want to put that skirt on! I had the girls clothes all laid out and she came out of her room in something else and I told her that I let her choose what she wants to wear (within reason) every Sunday, but this Sunday, you are wearing what I picked out for you and Sloan. Needless to say, after quite a few tears and a while in timeout she put it on and surprisingly smiled for the camera!

Here are a few projects that I have done this month. I admid I'm a little slow at taking pictures and putting them on my blog. HOW do you other bloggers do it? Some people are great at posting them before the holiday, but with me, I just have to say "better late than never"!

Free Wheelin' Promotion

This promotion runs Mar 18th through the end of April. I Love wheels, and Jumbo wheels at that! How great to get them free with your stamp set! I've been trying to upload my flyer here but alas my computer skills or lack of, are disapointing me. But I have learned how to link it, so click here to see!
If anyone out there knows how to make my blog act like Diane's blog, I swear I will give you whatever you want! Seriously, make me an offer! Does she have a computer programer live with her?!? Someone enlighten me! I love how you can just click on her catalog, and it takes you right there! I've had to just put in a link above the picture of mine. Anyway, I have learned a lot just by trial and error on my blog, but it sure does take a while for me to figure it out!

Testing out my homemade Light box

Hey I'm trying out my Light box I made out of a cardboard Box~! I think it's going to work great!

Here is a card I made using a few techniques.

1. Dazzaling Diamond Dust. Cover the cardstock with the stamped images (old olive flower, temp.turquoise butterfly and rose red heart from Priceless stamp set) with Versamark and cover with Irridecent Ice Embossing Powder. Heat.
2. Use the A-3 setting on your Crop-a-dile to dry emboss dots along your rose red cardstock
3. Use your corner rounder with the guard off to make scallops
4. Color just the sides of your ribbon with a marker to have a custom color match.

Kelli's meeting

Here are some pictures I took from my upline Kelli's meeting last month. I have the best upline and sidelines! They come up with the greatest ideas! Hope you enjoy them as much as I did!


A beautiful card made by Melissa given to Vicky with one of my favorite sets: Embrace Life.


How cute are these? The picture doesn't do Amy's eggs justice! They are so sparkly in real life. And the jar has our rub-ons on it too!


Love this color combo!


Here's a stamp set that is free with Sale-a-bration!


I still can't get enough of the scallop punch or the Designer Series Paper! (Berry Bliss DS used here)

Here is a cute bag made with a set out of the new Occasions mini catalog and the Ginger Blossom DS paper.

TIN OF TEN CARDS

Here is a picture of the tin part of the project for my stamp camp. We will be using Designer Series paper to cover a tin box and make ten cards (envelopes included!) But that's not all...you will also make cute dividers to go inside the tin, too! This is a great gift for Mother's Day! Use as a reciepe box or card organizer.

It's Friday April 25th. Cost:$20. There will be choices of Paper also. Contact me to reserve your tin!

Open House Friday the 8th of Feb.

Hey everyone,

Here is the project for my Open House. Come by and look at the New Catalog, Learn some fun techniques, and make a Cute Valentine box for someone Sweet!

World Card Making Day

What could be better than having an official holiday to make cards?!? Having World Making Card Day be on your Birthday!!!

Yes, Saturday, October 6th is my birthday!!!

I'm so excited to have people over to stamp the day away! The cards we will be making are from the "Just like you" set. It's a stamp set that Stampin'Up donates $2.00 from the sale to the Ronald McDonald House Charities. I have cut out double the amount of paper so I would love to have everyone help me make some cards that I can donate to the families at the RMHC.

This is a FREE Event! So there shouldn't be any excuses to not be here to wish me a Happy Birthday and to help out a good cause!!! Just Contact me to reserve you a spot! SEE You All soon!

JAPreview

We are just starting to edit our Japan trip from over three years ago. We stayed in Kyoto most of the time and ventured to Kobe one day. We were lucky to be able to go with someone who spoke Japanese. Brandon did a great job translating and showing us around town. We were amazed at how such a big and busy city can be keep so clean. They recycle everything. They have recycle bins everywhere! So smart and easy to just seperate trash right when you toss it-We could learn a lot! One of our favorite things was go to a monkey habitat. It was so neat to just we hangin' out with them. I guess we felt right at home! We really had a great time.

I'm trying my hand at video editing...Here is a very ruff draft montage from our first tape.
