Whatever you do....don't join my team!

Well, maybe the title is a little backwards. What I mean is.....don't join my team unless you want to be inspired like crazy! I held my Whimsical Impressions Team demonstrator meeting Tuesday night, and these ladies are amazing! I am constantly awed by the great class and club ideas they come up with! And the samples and demonstrations were awesome, as usual.

Actually, right now is the perfect time to join my team, because Stampin' Up is offering a special Demonstrator mini-starter kit for only $119. It is ideal for anyone who already has a good supply of Stampin' Up products, and doesn't need everything that comes in the $245 kit. You can also customize alot of it, and get all the business supplies you'll need.

Whether you just want to make some money for a short time, for the long term, be a full-blown business person, or just make a little to get some free stamping supplies, you can make it whatever you want. Contact me to get the online password to signup online from home, and have it shipped directly to your door! And, if that's not enough, demonstrators who join my team get all classes with me at HALF price! You want more? You'd get to come to any and all stamp club nights without placing any orders! More? How about more one-on-one time, more ideas, and more prizes from me! 

Here's are some of the samples from our meeting.

This one was made by Angela Boon. I love this card! Thanks Ang! 

   

Here's one made by Joanne Oszenaris.....so pretty.

 

I will post some more in the coming days........

Thanks Ladies, it was a fun evening!

Crafter's Flea Market fun!

This past weekend, I held a Crafter's Flea Market at my house. I had 5 other ladies sign up to sell some paper crafting supplies that they didn't need anymore. It was a fabulous sunny day, and lots of people showed up to get some great deals! Here are some pics of the event.....

 

......Tracy and Julia enjoying the sunshine.

Ghosting card

  I showed this technique called "Ghosting" at my stamp club get-togethers last week, and just wanted to share the completed card with you.

To do this, you take a piece of vellum, and brayer ink over it (I used the new In-Color Pacific Point). Very quickly take a clean, dry, solid image stamp (this is Upsy Daisy) and stamp it onto the wet vellum. When you lift it off, it will pull the ink off with it, creating this pretty look. Then, let it dry. 

 For this card I added a layer of white cardstock behind (this technique shows up best if you layer it onto white), and then tied some of the new 1" Stitched Chocolate Chip grosgrain ribbon. Add a layer of Old Olive cardstock with some paper piercing along the top and bottom of it.  For the card base, I used Chocolate Chip cardstock.

I hope you like it!

Pink Pirouette card

Here is the completed card that I showed as a Sneak Peek a few days ago. We made this as theStamp Club Make & Take this past week, as well as a Technique Page on 'Ghosting'. (I will post a sample with that technique in a day or two.)

The ladies seemed to enjoy the challenge of making this card, even though I was a little worried about overwhelming them. Everyone had a blast making it, and the Build-A-Brad on the front was a hit!

Details on how it's made:

We used the Tres Chic background on Pink Pirouette cardstock, stamped in Versamark, and heat embossed with Clear Embossing Powder. The next step was to punch the bottom of the Pink Pirouette cardstock with the Scallop Edge punch. The Old Olive prints paper strip was punched to match, and adhered underneath. The little envelope on the front was made using the Envelope Die and the Big Shot die cutting machine, on Old Olive prints paper. It is so easy to make these, as the machine cuts it, scores it, and even adds the cute lace accent along the top, all in one go thru. We added adhesive on either side, and it was ready to put on the card! First we folded some 1 1/4 inch Pink Pirouette ribbon, and taped that underneath. Inside the envelope is a little note card stamped with the Punches Three stamp set square image, and punched out with the Square Scallop Punch. We also paper pierced along the top of the little note card before sliding it into the envelope. Then, the finale was to make the Build-A-Brad for the front. For this, we used the 1/2" circle punch to make an Old Olive circle, and adhered that to the brad. The clear bubble was already sticky, so we popped that on top. We punched out a larger circle with the 3/4" circle punch, and Pink Pirouette cardstock, and put the brad thru that. It is attached with a dimentional so as not to get in the way of the note card. I hope you enjoy this project!

Big Shot Baby Book!

Here is a cute little boy Baby Book I made yesterday using my new Big Shot from Stampin' Up along with the Bigz Scallop Die.

I cut out the Urban Garden Designer Series Paper, (4 sheets at once! I LOVE the possibilities with this machine to do multiple pieces at the same time!) I then cut off about 1 inch of the Scallop shape, so I could add the binding with my new Bind-It-All! I added the new Kiwi Satin Ribbon, which is Kiwi on one side, and Vanilla on the other! So pretty! The embellishment on the front is made from a retired Baby stamp (All Year Cheer) in Baja Breeze, punched out with the Designer Label Punch, and the new Square Scallop punch. I added a clip from the new Clips Assortment.

 

I made 8 pages for the inside, and decorated them simply, with the smaller Scallop Die, cut out in Kiwi Kiss and Baja Breeze paper. I also added a few stamped images of Upsy Daisy in Kiwi Kiss.

This would make a great gift to pop some baby photos into, and give to Grandma as a brag book!

Why Should You Sign Up as a Demonstrator under Jo-Ann Unrau?

 The support of your upline (the person who you sign up under) can be an important factor in the success of your business.  You’ll want to be sure your upline is going to be able to meet your needs.  Here are a few things that I do for my group of demonstrators, and some reasons you should sign up with me!

 1)        I am a Stampin’ Up! award winner , and whether you want to be an award winner or just want to achieve your quarterly sales minimums, I can show you how to achieve your goals!

 2)        I attend meetings with my downline, which include business information, swaps, demonstrations and great ideas!  I send handouts and extra items to my out-of-town demonstrators. I hold stamping nights and meetings in my studio for my downline, so we can create and learn together!

 3)        Since I earn 2-5% of the sales from my group of demonstrators, I choose to reinvest some of that money back into the group.  I do this by offering incentives, make & takes and more.

 4)        I send out regular e-mail updates and an e-mail newsletter to my entire group.  This newsletter contains business and creative ideas, as well as recognition for our group members.

 5)        I (and you would) have access to an email group where members of my downline can share ideas and business tips with each other.  Along with business information, there are card and scrapbook page samples available for viewing.

 6)        I am here to help you with any questions or concerns.  Contact me, and I will do my best to help you take care of your business.  When you sign up, I will give you a packet of ideas, flyers, and business tips that have made my business more successful.  You may incorporate these ideas into your own business as you see fit.

 7)        Sign up with me, and not only will I do my best to help you with your business, but I will also offer you a money-back guarantee!  If you have not earned back the price of your starter kit in nine months of doing business, I will buy back all of your current unused business supplies!  You get to keep the stamps and fun stuff!

 Sincerely,

Jo-Ann Unrau
