Nutz about Stamping

What to do when you have a long wish list

Do you have a wish list as long as your arm? Me too!

Here's what I do:

1. Prioritize.
   Am I running low on my favorite colors?
   Are there occasions coming soon that I need to craft for: Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, etc?
   
   
2. Select.
   Thinking ahead I reorganize my wish list according to my priorities and then select what I will order first. 
   
   
3. Check with my friends. 
   Sometimes combining orders can earn me extra free goodies - with hostess awards we can share free packs of card stock, accessories and so on. 
   
   
4. Another consideration.
   Join my team and choose those products at the top of you list for your Starter Kit - only $99! Learn more here. 

If you have not placed an order with me yet, here's how you do it: 

1.  Order online directly through Stampin Up choosing me, Terri Walker, as your demonstrator. My online store is open 24 hours / 7 days a week so you can shop when it is convenient for you! 

2. How to place an order:

• After completing the order online, check your email. Stampin' Up! sends you an order confirmation by email!
• During the ordering process, if you select “No Contact”, I will still get credit  for your order, but I won't know who the order was from. This means I have no way of thanking you for the order.

2018 HOLIDAY CATALOG

Don't just take my word about how awesome this new catalog is - here's a fun video created by Stampin' Up!:

Now is a great time to join Stampin up

Now is a great time to become a Stampin' Up! demonstrator!

1. Add to your crafting knowledge. You will get tons of ideas for handmade cards, scrapbook pages, and home decor projects, from the monthly Stampin' Success magazine, demonstrator-only art gallery, and traveling to Stampin' Up! events. You will learn new artistic stamping tip, tricks and techniques and be the first to play with new product lines!

2. Be your own boss and work hours that make sense for you and your family. You can choose how many (or how few) hours you want to work each week and change these hours according to your family's needs. You can also take advantage of many tax deductions while you add income to help with your family budget every month.

3. Make new friends - more than you could ever dream of having! I have said over and over that I have never met a stamper I don't instantly have a connection with and my business has brought me so many friends I feel very blessed.

4. You can choose Holiday Catalog products in your Starter Kit. You choose $125 worth of products from our catalogs for only $99 and that includes your shipping costs! And you get a box to catalogs to give to your friends (at no extra cost). Once you join my team you are under no obligation to sell products to others - that is completely up to you. Read about my promise to you here. 

5. Travel the world. Stampin' Up! has events all over the globe and you are welcome to attend them as a demonstrator. I have seen so many cool places and met so many cool new friends that I stay in touch with simply because I wanted to share with others my love (addiction?) of paper crafting.

 

As an added bonus, first-time demonstrators can get two free months of Demonstrator Business Web Services (DBWS) when they sign up during their first 21 days as a demonstrator. Subscribing to DBWS means having your own online store, blog, hostess portal, and much more!

Have questions? Please email me to ask: terri@nutzaboutstamping.com. I am a no pressure demonstrator who is always here to help you out with any questions you have!

Don't miss my amazing Stamparatus accessories spotlight!

I know that owning a Stamparatus means it was love at first sight and I want to give you even more to love about this versatile tool by introducing Stamparatus accessories!

Here's the breakdown on these new accessories - if you want to download the flyer above, just click on it! Purchase separately as needed OR choose the accessory pack for a combo of three!

I am excited about the extra plates option: these can be used as backups or for quicker stamping of multiple set ups without having to switch stamps out often. (yay!)

Small Grid Paper	Grid paper perfectly sized to fit the Stamparatus, for precision stamp alignment every time. (50 sheets)	149621	$6.50 USD
