Stamps-N-Lingers Catalog Share and Recruiting Challenge!

So – my upline, friend and mentor – Amy Koenders – issued a challenge to me yesterday – make Supervisor by the end of June!  And – since that’s in line with my goals for my business, I decided to pick up the gauntlet!  To that end, as Step One – I’m going to do my very first ever Annual Catalog Share.  Back in January, I dove into the deep end of blogging – and now, I’m taking a big breath and plunging into the world of Catalog Shares!

And, as the second prong of the challenge – I’m actively recruiting my very first Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator Recruit.  Says the Department of Redundancy Department – sorry!  You know from my last post that Stampin’ Up already has a super special going on now.  Remember this from Tuesday?

  DEMONSTRATOR JOINING SPECIAL GOING ON NOW!

If you’ve been thinking that joining Stampin’ Up! as a Demonstrator – whether as a business or just a great way to get those great demonstrator bennies to plump up your stash for your favorite hobby – now is a super time to take that step!  SU! will give you TWO free stamp sets in your Starter Kit.  And, guess what?  YOU get to choose the stamp sets – how cool is that!?

Details:

• Promotion Period: June 2-June 30, 2015
• New recruits who join during the promotion period will receive their choice of two stamp sets from the new 2015-2016 annual catalog for free in their Starter Kit. Remember – your Starter Kit contains $125 in SU! product (that YOU choose!!) for only $99!
• And after YOU join, if you recruit some of your friends and they join under you, then you’ll get one stamp set for free from the new 2015-2016 annual catalog per recruit, up to your first five recruits during the promotion period.
• Deadline – all recruits must be submitted by:
  • Online: Tuesday, June 30, 2015 by 11:50 PM (MT)
    Fax: Tuesday, June 30, 2015 by 6:50 PM (MT)

And – in case it wasn’t apparent – there’s never an obligation with Stampin’ Up!  You can get your Starter Kit with a bunch of your favorite products, at a super price, plus TWO free stamp sets….and you can say “see-ya!” (I don’t think you’ll want to – but, you COULD!)

Go over to my Join My Team page for some more info!  And don’t wait too long if this is something you’re interested in, okay?  It’ll be the end of the month in a heartbeat – and I don’t want you to miss the Special.  So, what do you say – do YOU want to be my Very First Recruit?!? 😉

Okay – deep breath….here we go!  Onto the Shares!  I’ve borrowed shamelessly from Amy’s Share plan, so a lot of this may look eerily familiar to y’all!

Cue the big Introduction…..

First Annual Stamps-N-Lingers Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog Shares!

If you’ve been browsing the new catalog – (do you put “want” next to the things you, well – want? – like I do?) and every page has a “want” or SEVERAL “wants”, a catalog share might be a great way for you to get a sampling of all the new papers, ribbons and embellishments – without having to shell out the full cost.  If you bought all of these products individually, they’d cost over $440!

I’m going to place the Share order the last week I’m in CA (that’s in less than two weeks – whoo-hoo!!), and have the items delivered to Atlanta.  As soon as the Big Box O’Fun arrives, I’ll divide everything up and get your share out to you quick like a bunny!

Here’s what’s on the table – I’m doing two types of Shares!

1. New Designer Series Paper Share – $37.00 plus $5 for Priority Mail shipping. In all, you’ll receive 218 6” x 6” sheets of designer papers!

You’ll get one 6×6 sheet of each design from the following DSP packs (the number behind the name indicates how many 6×6 sheets of that paper pack you will receive):

Color Me Irresistible Specialty – 12

2015-17 In Color Envelope Paper – 10

***Please Note: The Neutrals and Regals Designer Series Paper Stacks are not available for ordering right now (although they very well may be when I order in two weeks!). If you join my share, and they’re not available for me to order at the time, I’ll get them ordered just as soon as they’re available and I’ll ship those papers out to you when they arrive. I won’t hold up the rest of the share – I’ll get it ordered and sent out as soon as I can.

You’ll also get one 6” x6” sheet of each design from the following DSP Stacks (the number behind the name indicates how many 6×6 sheets of that paper pack you will receive):

Go Wild – 12
Cherry on Top – 12
Pretty Petals – 12

2. New Ribbon and Embellishment Share – $32.25 plus $3.50 for 1st Class Mail shipping for a full Ribbon & Embellishment share. With a full Ribbon & Embellishment Share you’ll receive 45 yards of new ribbon and 20 new embellishments!  Here’s what you’ll get:

Approximately 1 yard of the new 5/8″ Smoky Slate Chevron Ribbon

Approximately 3 yards of each of the new Thick Baker’s Twines

• Bermuda Bay
• Calypso Coral
• Cherry Cobbler

Approximately 2 yards of each new Sequin Trim

Approximately 1 yard of each new 1” Dotted Lace Trim

Approximately 2 yards of each new 3/8” Stitched Satin Ribbon

And – you’ll get the following embellishments

• 2015-17 In Color Blossom Accents – 1 of each color
• Expressions Natural Elements – 1 of each word
• Metal Rimmed Pearls – 2 of each size
• Classy Designer Buttons – 2 of each design

Want it all? $69 – and you’ll get shares of all of the new Designer Series Papers, Designer Series Paper Stacks, ribbons and embellishments. Plus I’ll ship it for free!

And if you’d like double shares of either the designer paper or ribbon, that’s fine too. I’ll cut the designer paper sheets into 6×12 so that you’ll be able to get 3 full A2 size card fronts from each sheet (except for the Go Wild, Cherry on Top and Pretty Petals DSP Stacks, you’ll get double sheets of those since they’re already precut at 6″x6″!).

Anyone is welcome to join in my share (please note, I can only ship to addresses within the US). If you’d like to join us, either complete the form below or email the following information to stamps-n-lingers@comcast.net

• Your first and last name
• The email address that is connected to your Paypal account. I only accept Paypal for payment.
