Okay I haven’t gone mad, or indeed lost 39 years…………today Saturday 17th November 2012 is my 5th Stampin’ Up! birthday and I would like to celebrate with you !

I can’t believe it has been 5 years, my business has grown so much and that is all down to my wonderful customer friends and amazing team.  When I started with Stampin’ Up! my dream was to build a sucessful crafting business, that could contribute to my families income, be flexible and FUN !!!  With Stampin’ Up! I have so much more, I often try and explain that it’s so much more than the amazing stamps and products, it’s a family and the people I have met on my journey are wonderful, I am so thankful !

So I have decided to find 5 different ways that you can celebrate with me, some discounts, freebies and goodies, so read on for all the details! This will be a long post, you need to read all the way to the bottom, you can celebrate with me in any or all of the 5 ways! There is no limit.

1. Wish List Service

Christmas is coming and wouldn’t it be wonderful to receive some fantastic Stampin’ Up! goodies on Christmas morning. My wish list service can help with that! All you have to do is email me or telephone me with a HUGE wish list, mention my wish service to your friends and family give them my phone number or email address, then sit back while they contact me with the amount they want to spend. I will order the products, have them sent direct to them, all they have to do is wrap them up! If you can’t trust them to contact me in time…….give me their number and I’ll call them to remind them!

Everyone who submits a wish list with me before the 1st December 2012 will be entered into a prize draw to win £25 of products of their choice from the catalogue.

2. Card Club

If you have never been to Card Club, now is the time ! We make 6 cards in 2 hours have lots of fun, all for £14 or free with a £22 order. But as a 5th birthday special if you have NEVER been to card club before you can attend for just £5 in December 2012 or January 2013. All the details are here. Anyone who has attended my card club before, of course I have something for you too…….a ticket to a special prize draw in addition to my usual raffle!

3. Simply Sent iPhone app

Stampin’ Up! have just launched an e-card app for the iPhone, it is so easy to use and you can share the cards via email, facebook or twitter. You can download the app here.  It does work on the ipad and the ipod touch too! If you have an android phone I’m sorry but the app won’t work, (sad face…….)  But I’m sure Stampin’ Up! are working on it!

Everyone who sends me a Simply Sent e-card before the 1st December 2012 will be entered into a prize draw to win £25 of products of their choice from the catalogue. I will be sharing your creations here on my website !

4. Sale-a-bration is coming

Stampin’ Up!’s biggest special of the year is the 22nd January 2013 to the 22nd March 2013, you can choose free goodies with every £45 spend, there are special for hostesses too! I am taking bookings now for this period.  Please email or call me to get your party booked!

Everyone who books a party before the 1st December 2012 for the period 22nd Jan to 22nd March 2013 will be entered into a prize draw to win £25 of products of their choice from the catalogue. If you are already booked I will enter you automatically!

5. Craft AWAY Day

On the 8th December 2012 I am holding a special crafting day. This is a day where you bring along your own projects, cards, scrapbooks, sewing, what ever you want to work on along with your lunch. It is an ideal opportunity to finish your Christmas cards, escape from the madness of Christmas preparations for a while or get started on some crafting presents! I will provide you with a minimum of half a 6ft table space to work at, hot and cold drinks, biscuits and cake too!

I will be demonstrating lots of projects and showcasing different products during the day, so if there is something you would like to see, let me know and I will add it to the program! Do bring a camera and a notebook.

The cost is just £15 and you will receive a £10 credit towards anything you order on the day. Email me to book your place.

So I hope there is something on the above list that will help you celebrate with me. I am so grateful that I have you and Stampin’ Up! in my life and that I can do what I love every day.

I’ll be back on Monday with some more Convention reports and some cards too!
