Stamp with Heather

Wow...what a day!

Thanks so much for stopping by today!  I was exhausted last night so do apologize I didn't get the post done sooner.  I would like to start by waying WOW!!!!!  I had one of my best stamping days ever yesterday!  I had so much fun stamping, demonstrating, talking, eating and sharing with so many of you!  Thank you to those that were able to come to our event and I look forward to hosting another one in the spring.  Thank you SO SO SO much!!!!  

While we were at our stamping event, many of my technologically forward friends were checking out the Stampin' Up! specials for October.  And this special is HUGE!!!  AND so appropriate after a great day of sharing and being together.  I think we were all pretty excited to contact friends or family and invite them to join our stamping family to share in future events and stamp days like yesterday!

Here are the details for this months specials:  

An offer to DIE for!

I do have a quick post for you today.  I watched The Hobbit (thanks Sundee!) last night with my kids and did a little MDSing.  Here's the page I came up with.  Cole LOVES his "dee dee" (he's actually pointing to the screen right now on my computer saying dee dee....dee dee).  It stays in his crib but when he heads up to bed he is just SO happy!  And of course there isn't just one, there are like 5!  My favourite thing is when Cole is tired he has usually one in his mouth, and one in each hand.  While he's falling asleep he rubs the two in his hands over his eye lids....not sure why but it calms him and next thing you know he's sound asleep and happy!  These are the memories I don't want to forget:)

I hope you enjoyed today's post (even though it is super long).  I hope you have a great day today, we've got a birthday party, football and cheer!  Thanks so much for stopping by!

Take care,

Heather

Have you heard....

the great news!?!?!  OK, for all you demos out there, this is just as exciting but for all you customers NOW (well, actually November 15th) is a GREAT GREAT time to sign up with Stampin' Up!  If you haven't heard the news...here goes:

Well, Stampin' Up! has done it again!  What do you call it when you get over $375 in crafting and business supplies for only $107.50? You can call it an amazing deal, but we're calling it an amazing opportunity! From November 15-30, you can purchase either our Standard or Digital+ Starter Kits at 50 percent off the regular retail price of $215 (plus free shipping!), and enjoy these great benefits as a Stampin' Up!® demonstrator.

(Food for thought:  If you've ever toyed with purchasing My Digital Studio - you know my favourite program:) - the starter kit is actually CHEAPER than the program itself!!!  How amazing is that???  And if you love MDS, each $1.25 download (or more) and all your printing go toward your quarterly minimums!)

THIS IRRESISTIBLE OFFER IS ONLY AVAILABLE UNTIL NOVEMBER 30, 2010, SO CONTACT ME BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!

If you decide you'd like to give this a try, there is no obligation!  You can simply enjoy the amazing products at a HUGELY reduced rate and never do anything beyond this.  You can make personal purchases and enjoy the constant 20% discount (and 30% off your first order!).  You can give the business opportunity a shot and earn a bit of extra income to help cover your purchases.  Or you can give it your all and make this a full time business.  Stampin' Up! has room for ALL kinds of demonstrators!

You may be asking yourself, what are some of the benefits to being a Stampin' Up! demonstrator.  Here are just a few of the many perks:
·    Earn additional income while sharing creativity. 
·    Make new and lasting friendships. 
·    Enjoy access to nearly unlimited creative ideas. 
·    Receive a free subscription to an exclusive monthly magazine. 
·    Receive two free months subscription to your own business website. 
·    Opportunity to earn free products and incentive trips.

You may also be wondering, what does it take to remain a Stampin' Up! demonstrator.  If you decide to join our team and it isn't for you, no big deal!  You'll never have to have anything sent back, or return anything or pay anything!  After you "drop" you simply won't get access to the Stampin' Up! website and you'll no longer get the magazines mailed to you:)  So, here's what it takes:

• You have to sell (or buy:) $400 per quarter.  This can be done in one order or a 100!  If you're considering this, $400 is typically one workshop or one class every three months!
• Your first quarter doesn't end until March (which means you have about 4 months to reach this minimum!)
• Signing up now will allow you to partake in the Sale-a-bration perks of being a demonstrator....who doesn't love free stamps!!!
• Signing up now also allows you to participate in the preorder of our next mini catalogue and Sale-a-bration preorders!!!

If you would like to see more about the Stampin' Up! opportunity or learn more about my team, Simply Stars, I welcome you to come to my downline meeting this Tuesday night (6:45) at Kings College.  Please RSVP to me so I can plan and prepare extra make and takes for you:)

I hope that you will give this opportunity some serious thought as Stampin' Up! has opened an amazing world of opportunity and friendship to me and the same is waiting for you!  

"To LOVE what we do and SHARE what we love,
as we help others enjoy CREATIVITY and worthwhile accomplishments...
in this we make a DIFFERENCE." (Stampin' Up! statement of the Heart)

If you have a demonstrator and you're thinking of joining the Stampin' Up! family, do so NOW!!!!  You won't regret it!  If you are Canadian and looking for a demonstrator I'd love to chat with you about this opportunity!  I LOVE what I do and LOVE to share what I LOVE:)  (can you tell!!!)

I look forward to hearing from you!

Have a great day!

Heather

Okay Ladies (or even Gentlemen:)...

  As you know I had the AMAZING experience of going to Founder's Circle last week.  It is a retreat that Stampin' Up! generously shares with about 20 Canadian and 120 American Stampin' Up! demonstrators!  While we were in St. George's, we had the opportunity to attend a local Stampin' Up! Regional event.  A Regional Event is a training opportunity full of wonderful ideas, sharing and stamping time!  So not only do we get all of these amazingly experiences we also received exciting news!

 If you have EVER considered joining the Stampin' Up! family I would love to hear from you!  (Remember, you have to be a Canadian Citizen to become a part of my team.)  Stampin' Up! offers an amazing business model at every level.  If you'd love to receive a continual discount on product OR earn a little extra each month OR make this a reliable income building business OR all of the above I'd love to answer any questions you may have.  

Stampin' Up! is an amazing company headed in such a positive and strong direction.  I have never believed this more than after this past week at Founders.  Stampin' Up! CARES!  They listen, they ask questions, they want to know our thoughts and we see changes happening because of demonstrator input.  I can't ask for a better work situation and look forward to grow with this company!  I would love to have you partake in these experiences as well...it truly is life changing and so positive!

 So you want to know why NOW is an even more exciting time to sign up?  Well, not only will you receive the amazing Craft Tote (shown in the photo) BUT you will also get a FREE stamp set that is not yet available and will be sold in an upcoming mini catalogue....how exciting is that....called Eat Chocolate!  It is so super cute and I've shared a few photos from Founders we can share to entice you!  It is a PERFECT set for card making, scrap booking AND 3D items! I can't wait to create with it!

Simply Stars!

 Simply Stars....my Stampin' Up! team!  I have had a few of you email to ask me about my Stampin' Up! team so I thought I'd share a bit with you today.  My team is a group of amazing women from all over Canada that all share the LOVE of paper crafting.  We bond and share all our ideas on our downline blog.  On our blog we have videos, photos but most of all friendship!  At my last downline meeting I sat back and really enjoyed seeing this.  My downline Anne hosted the end of SU year potluck dinner.  We enjoyed some outside time and I was thrilled sitting around watching all of these fabulous ladies interact with one another!  I was sad some of our stars missed the dinner, but we still managed to have fun.

I have been a demonstrator now for six years and have gained so many things I could never imagine.  I started my journey as a demonstrator when my dad was ill.  I wanted to scrapbook some of the important highlights in his life and get his stories on paper before it was too late.  After he passed away I decided to embrace the SU opportunity and scrapbook and create.  A few years in I started to build a team, somewhat by accident.  I have been so lucky to have so many fabulous women join my team.  I love this quote that I can remember my dad sharing with me:  

Every great dream begins with a dreamer.  Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.

Isn't it great!  So from this quote, Simply Stars were born!  And now, I have gained so many amazing friendships and been inspired by all!  Thank you to each of my team members for trusting in me and for playing an important role in my life!  If joining Stampin' Up! is something you've considered I'd love to hear from you!  There are a few options for joining the stamping up family.  Feel free to check out my site for more details on being a Stampin' Up! demonstrator.  Here are some of the kit details:

• CLICK HERE for information on the Standard Starter Kit
• CLICK HERE for information on the Digital Starter Kit
• CLICK HERE for information on the $45 starter kit for any returning demonstrator

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask!  Today's card was made by my friend and downline Annie P!  Isn't it GORGEOUS?  It uses the new set Artistic Etchings and focuses on the Marina Mist colour.  I love how she outlined the stamp in the corresponding marker.  It's hard to see but the tower is cut out and popped up.  LOVE the hint of Taffeta ribbon along the bottom of the card!  Thanks for making it for me and letting me share!

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!

Take care,

Heather

Founders Circle Update!

Let me start by thanking YOU, my valued blog readers and wonderful friends, downline and customers!  I appreciate all that you do and have really enjoyed the past five years of stamping with you!  I am currently at Founders Circle and while laying in bed the other night I kept thinking of so many of you.  I am here because of YOUand I really appreciate that!  I am so grateful for your support, encouragement and friendships, thank you!  I thought I would share with you a little bit of the Founders Circle world!  You'll be seeing  alot more photos in weeks to come as I scrapbook the memories but I wanted to share a few

things with you today.

This first picture is my new friend Karen. 

She is also a Canadian demonstrator, from Alberta though.  She is so sweet and a veteran at Founders Circle so she has really taken me under her wing this week (as has Josee...thank you!) 

This next picture was an optional event, to go to the Tuacahn Amphitheatre and see AIDA.  WOW, is all I can say!!!  We were in this canyon (that's Red Rock and real all behind the stage) and saw the most amazing performance.  At one point, water came down from the mountains and flooded the stage....UNBELIEVABLE!!! 

This last photo was taken today at a park that Stampin' Up! provides all the rubber for.  We're standing on rubber, that's what the playground is full of!  This is where we had our YUMMY lunch after visiting the stamp manufacturing plant in Kanab (which was .... WOW .... if you want to hear all about it ask me next time you see me...when you have a few minutes:)  Anyhow, these are all the Canadian demonstrators that earned Founders (but we're missing Nancy and Kristina....we missed you:)  Love this photo...check out the mountains in the background.

So thank YOU for giving me this opportunity to go to Founders Circle! 

 

GI Cancer Fundraiser!

Wow, can you believe it's that time of year again!  I am so excited to announce the details of my upcoming GI Cancer fundraiser.  Before I do that, I'd like to fill you in on a few of the details.  My dad passed away at a very young age, in January of 2004.  The first Christmas after he passed away, Emma and I (Emma who was 4 1/2 at the time) stamped cards and sold them to raise money in my dad's name.  This annual tradition of carrying on my dad's spirit and belief in giving back has grown into a full day event that I share with my wonderful team of demonstartors (Simply Stars) and my family as well.  I do believe that at the end of this year's event we will reach $10000 in donations in my dad's name over the past five years.  As you can see this event is very special to me and so many of you keep returning to this event year after year which I thank you for!   This year is going to be amazing and we already have so much planned and ready for you!  I'm so excited to share the details with you:

When:  Saturday, October 24

9:30 to 12 OR 1 to 3:30

 

Where:  Kings’

University

College

(map will follow)

 

Cost: $40 which includes the stamp set Four Holidays (shown on the bottom of the flyer), 10 stamped projects (6 cards – 2 of each design, 2 tags and 2 packages) and $10 of this is donated to GI Cancer Research if paid by October 1^st.  ($45 after October 1^st)  I know, can you believe it!?!?!?  All this for only $40!!!!!

 

PLUS, there will be some snacks and refreshments and there will be 100 door prizes!!!!!

 

We will also have a HUGE variety of raffle items.  Some of these items may be stamping related but many of them are not and would make fabulous Christmas gifts.  We will also have a 50/50 draw in both sessions, with 50% of the proceeds going to GI Cancer research and the other percentage to the winner for a stamp order!

 

If you are not able to attend this event, kits are available and will include full instructions!  (I will ship these kits anywhere in Canada)

 

Tickets are limited so please ask your friends, mark it on your calendar and come join us for a fun day of stamping!  No experience necessary!!!

 

This year will be slightly different for me as my due date is only 4 days after this event(I know so many of you think I'm nuts but, well, I am!)   I will be limiting my tickets so all I ask is that you commit early to this event!  I am hoping to have my projects cut, bagged and ready to go by the end of September.  Thank you for your help in this department:)  I'll keep you posted on my blog how tickets are going on a weekly basis.

 

Here is a flyer for you if you'd like to pass it along to your friends or coworkers, anyone that might be interested in a fun half day out of creating, sharing and friendship.

Please email me privately at [email protected] if you are interested in attending this event.  Please let me know if you would like the morning or afternoon session.  Again, thank you for your continued support and I am looking forward to another wonderful day!

Simply Stars....they are AMAZING!

Today's post is going to be a bit gushy, so be prepared!  Last night was such an AMAZING evening!  Jodie hosted our "Stampin' Up! year end BBQ" for my Simply Stars Stampin' Up! team!  Thank you Jodie (who successfully avoided all of my photos???) for the use of your house and great hospitality!  Thank you to my team for bringing such YUMMY treats!  I am so lucky to be surrounded by a terrific bunch of ladies!  I wish all my downline lived closeby and were able to attend, but unfortunately this isn't the case.  But each of my team members are a valuable member and I'm always so excited when I get together with my team because we have so much fun together!  Thanks ladies!!!  We were in no shortage of food last night, the snacks, dinner and desserts were so good!  Belinda (the one in the top row photo with me beside the cake) made this fantastic cake for the BBQ using our Simply Stars logo!  Isn't that just too fun!?!?!?  It looked (and tasted) AMAZING!   For the BBQ, I made a little treat bag thanks to each of the girls that came (bottom right) from the Big Shot and of course they held a little bit of chocolate! 

Martha (gray sweatshirt in the middle) asked if she could be in charge of the make and takes.  I'm not one to disagree so she came up with the sweetest chapstick holder butterfly projects.....is it not too sweet????  The butterflies are from the Big Shot using the Bella Rose DSP.  There is one on the front and one on the back of the chapstick holder.  Wouldn't this be so sweet for a party favour for a birthday or even a shower?  It could even work for a baby shower!  Possiblities are endless!!!

Well, thank you so much ladies to ALL my Simply Stars (those that were in attendance and those that couldn't come)  I appreciate all you do and am very thankful to have you on my team!  Have a great day!

Isn't that exciting!?!?!?  If you are in Canada and haven't seen a catalogue yet, head on over to www.stampinup.com (make sure you click on the Canadian flag).  If you'd like a catalogue I'd be happy to send you one if you are willing to pay the shipping.

The other OH SO EXCITING news is I am hosting a button share.....how can I not!??!!  The buttons on page 176 are AMAZING!!!  They are Corduroy.  OK, so the way this works, for $25 you will receive 36 buttons (6 of each colour - 2 per design - Kiwi Kiss, Pacific Point, Summer Sun, Chocolate Chip, Kraft and Pumpkin Pie!) YUMMY!!!!

If you're Canadian and would like in on the button share please email me at [email protected].  I will ship the buttons free to you in Canada so you don't have to be local to participate.

Have a great day!!!!  Hope this made you smile!
