Stampin Up Meeting

My upline had her quarterly downline meeting last night and I am thrilled to be living in the Quad Cities again so I could attend! We did a card swap and a shoebox swap (where everyone brings a project in a shoe box and we make each other's projects). It was SO fun! Here are the projects we made. The first card below was my swap!

It's A New Stamp Year!

 It's a new Stampin Up year, which means new catalog, new In Colors, new Hostess Plan, and a new promotion!!!!

New Catalog
The 2011-2012 SU catalog is PACKED with lots of fun stuff!!!  I am so excited about this catalog because for the first time in about 2 years my wish list on STAMP SETS far outweighs the length of my wish list of paper/inks/tools/accessories!  So many new sets that I am just in love with! If you would like a catalog, drop me an email at katrinabrooks20 at gmail dot com.  Locally they are $5, long distance $8 to cover my shipping costs.

New In Colors
I LOVE LOVE LOVE the new in colors! Especially  Wisteria Wonder!
So, here are the 2011-2013 in colors. THat's right, they are here for 2 years!
Calypso Coral
Island Indigo
Lucky Limeade
Pool Party
Wisteria Wonder


And don't forget about last year's peach parfait, poppy parade, pear pizzazz, blushing bride, and concord crush, this is your last year to enjoy them!

New Hostess Program
Stampin Up has revamped their Hostess program to allow you more flexibility in the rewards you receive when you host a workshop.  Hosting a workshop is a GREAT way to early FREE products on your wish list and it is a wonderful way to spend some time with your friends!!! Check out page 9 of the idea book and catalog to view the details of the new hostess program. In a nutshell once your workshop total reaches $150 (I have never had a workshop NOT reach that), you begin earning hostess dollars that you can use to purchase ANYTHING in the catalog, including exclusive hostess sets that are discounted for you! When your workshop total reaches $400, you continue earning hostess dollars ($65 at the $400 workshop level), plus you start earning items at 50% off their full price!!!!  So, for instance, you could purchase a big ticket item like the Big Shot or the entire set of markers for 50% off their full price when your workshop reaches the $400 level!  Let me know if you'd like to schedule a workshop and start earning free products....I can come to your home, I can host it at my home for you, or you can have a catalog show and simply pass the catalog around to your friends, coworkers, neighbors and collect orders!!!

New Starter Kit Promotion
Finally, for $99, you can become a demonstrator....hint hint COMO peeps!!! This modified Starter Kit is available only for the month of July.  It is the PERFECT option for you if you LOVE SU products, want to get a discount, maybe already have quite a bit of the products that come in the regular starter kit, and maybe even want to make  a little extra cash or at least have an excuse to stamp with friends! This kit contains over $180 in business supplies and products. You will also receive a FREE Christmas Keepsake Box Kit when you sign up in July!
