What is Stampin’ Up!s Sale-A-Bration?

by Becky on January 27, 2012

You keep seeing me mention Sale-A-Bration.  You see our special flier.  But what is Sale-A-Bration?  I want to make sure everyone understands what Sale-A-Bration is so you can get the most out of it.  Afterall, it’s the biggest Stampin’ Up! special of the year, the one we all look forward to all year round!  Sale-A-Bration began on January 24 and lasts until March 31 this year.

What does it mean for you as a customer?

Every time you purchase $50 worth of merchandise during Sale-A-Bration, you get to choose a free item out of the Sale-A-Bration catalog!  There are stamp sets, Decor Elements, Embossing Folders, Ribbons & Brads, Fabric and more to choose from!

You’ll want to note a couple things.  First, the $50 is before tax and shipping is calculated and must be spent all at one time (you can’t purchase $25 now and purchase $25 down the line and receive the free gift.)  The extra good news, there is no limit to the number of free items you can get.  If you purchase $50 worth of merchandise you can get one free item, if you purchase $150 worth of merchandise you can get 3 . . . and you can place as many orders as you want between now and March 31!

What does it mean for you as a hostess?

First, let me define “hostess.”  You are considered a hostess when you host a home party, collect orders from your friends or place your own personal order of $150 or more (but not a part of another persons party.)

As the hostess of a party totaling $150 or more, you will receive a free Stampin’ Up! tote from Stampin’ Up!

As the hostess of a party totaling $400 or more, you will receive the following for free:

  • Fresh Vintage Stamp Set (page 6)
  • Everyday Enchantment DSP (page 7)
  • Everyday Enchantment Ribbon & Brads (page 7)

Love those freebies!  Oh, and did I mention that all of this is free on top of all the normal free hostess benefits?!  Don’t forget about those!

What does it mean for you if you purchase the starter kit?

The Stampin’ Up! starter kit is a great way to get a lot of stamping goodies at a great price!  All of the items together in the kit are valued at $340 but is normally offered for $175.  During Sale-A-Bration, however, you can purchase the kit for just $125!  PLUS . . . you can choose to get either a free pack of Designer Paper or a digital download free each month for the rest of the year!  Wow!  Can I sign up to become a demonstrator again?!?!

Now some of you might be wondering what does buying the starter kit mean?  It means you’re getting a great deal on Stampin’ Up! product and you become a demonstrator.  Don’t get scared, there are many levels of demonstrators.  Some people become demonstrators simply so they can purchase SU! product at a great discount from themself.  Some people become a demonstrator so they can do what I do, sell this great product.  The choice is totally up to you!  You decide what you want to do with it.

I would be happy to answer further questions about becoming a demonstrator.  Please contact me for more information or if you’re ready to become one right now, sign up on my Stampin’ Up! demonstrator website.

Simple Elementary Elegance Card

by Becky on January 26, 2012

Today I want to share a very simple card using stamps from the Elementary Elegance stamp set.  A fellow demonstrator made a card along similar lines and then I changed it up a little bit to make my own variation.

The Elementary Elegance stamp set is available to you for free right now!  With a $50 Stampin’ Up! merchandise purchase you can choose this stamp set for your free Sale-A-Bration gift!  It’s a lovely stamp set – check it out!

It’s it lovely?  I look forward to sharing more projects in the future using these stamps!

Do you know what I realized?  Yesterday was my 6 year anniversary as a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator!  I’m happy to say that even after 6 years, I love my job!  How many people do you know that can say that?  I love to be creative, I love to share my creativity with you and I love to encourage you in your creativity!  I can’t wait to see what the next six years are going to bring!

If you love to create and you’re looking for a job you’ll love, why not trying what I do?   I want you on my team!!   Contact me today!

Thank you for stopping by today!

Sixth Birthday Scrapbook Page

As I mentioned yesterday, I just got 99 new pictures to scrapbook.  When I looked through them, I realized 56 of them are of Jaan’s birthday!  Yikes!  I guess that’s what happens when you have two parents who get camera happy (and when you get prints for a penny a piece!)  Needless to say, I [...]
