One of the great things about being a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator are the many perks, one being earning free stamp sets for Sale-A-Bration sales and for recruiting.  Stampin' Up! even allows us now to wait to choose until the new Idea Book & Catalog comes out so we can choose one of the new stamp sets if we want…and especially not to choose one that will retire soon.  So I thought today I would finally make that tough decision of which stamp set to order for my SAB sales….and I chose Spooky Bingo Bits on page 25 of the new catalog.  I love Halloween and thought this would give me lots of cute Halloween images and words to use, not just for bingo cards!

How exciting is that to get to pick a FREE new stamp set from Stampin' Up!???  The only thing MORE exciting would be to click the ordering page and find out that I was entitled to TWO MORE FREE STAMP SETS for recruiting!  Holy cow!!  So for those two sets I finally chose Creative Elements and the new alphabet set Letter It.

If you love stamping and would like to earn free stamp sets and have all kinds of fun, why not consider the $99 Starter Kit Promotion going on right now?!  You'll be a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator in minutes if you sign up on my site HERE.

March is here already!  There is a whole month to go of Stampin' Up!'s great promotion called Sale-a-Bration, but don't let it slip by you!  We know how fast time flies by and I wouldn't want you to miss out!  This is the time of year when you can get free Sale-a-Bration product for just spending $50 (before tax and shipping) with Stampin' Up!  And there's no limit to the free products you can get with each $50 purchase.  So, spend $100 and get 2 free Sale-a-Bration products…and so on!

As a hostess, if you have a $300 workshop (or even your own purchase) you will choose an EXTRA Sale-a-Bration product, beyond what you get for your own order, and beyond the usual Hostess benefits from Stampin' Up!

As if those two things are good enough, if you join as a Demonstrator during March, you can purchase the Starter Kit for 15% off!  You may choose either the Standard Starter Kit or the Digital+ Kit!  You even get an additional bonus!!

If you join soon, you still would have time to hold a workshop or collect orders and take advantage of Sale-a-Bration as a demonstrator!  You can even sign up online at my website HERE.  It only takes minutes and you will have your Demonstrator number in an email immediately following your sign-up.  I will be happy to be your upline and guide you as you begin your new business as a Stampin' Up! demonstrator!
