ICS Maui Blog Hop

Participating in card swaps is such a fun way for Stampin' Up! demonstrators to connect and share creative ideas and be inspired. While in Maui, I swapped cards with a few of the members of the ICS Blog Hop Group.

Below is my card swap. It's simple yet elegant and features several new Stampin' Up! products – Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper, Hand-Penned Petals Stamp Set, Tailor Made Tags Dies, and Highland Heather 1/2" Grosgrain Ribbon (I love its shimmer & shine).

Cutting Dimensions:

• Highland Heather card base = 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", score at 4 1/4" on long side, fold in half.
• Basic White card stock for inside of card = 5 1/4" x 4"
• Basic White card stock layer for card front = 5 1/4" x 3 1/2"
• Hand-Penned DSP layer for card front = 5" x 3 1/4"
• Basic White card stock for Tailor Made Tag Die = 1 1/2" x 3"

There are so many reasons why I love being a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator. Making connections with people around the world and having the opportunity to earn amazing trips simply by doing what I love to do and sharing it are at the top of my list. In addition, I get to belong to a wonderful community of stampers and crafters. I get to represent an amazing company focused on making a difference in the lives of others by sharing the joy of stamping and paper crafting with products I love. I get to be a part of something bigger than myself. I get to Inspire, Create, and Share every day with countless people. 

I would love for you too to be a part of this amazing community of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators. I invite you to join my Stampin' Up! team, Mary's Merry Stampers. Really, we're more like close friends who never tire of stamping and sharing and learning and growing together. I welcome EVERYONE to my team. Whether you are new to stamping or have loads of experience. Whether you are local to me or from another state. Whether you simply want to enjoy the demonstrator discount on all your purchases or want to build business, I will support you and help you get the most of your Stampin' Up! demonstrator experience. As a Merry Stamper Team Member, you'd belong to our private Facebook Group where we share creative inspiration, business resources, and have creative challenges with the opportunity to win Stampin' Up! prizes from me. You'll also have access to my stamping and paper crafting tutorials FREE. 

Join my Merry Stampers team now through May 31st, and SU! will give you an extra $30 of product of YOUR choice in your Starter Kit. This JOIN+ promotion is so fabulous, you seriously need to consider taking advantage of it. You'll get $155 (normally $125 plus additional $30) of Stampin' Up! product of YOUR CHOICE and pay just $99 plus tax. AND your Starter Kit SHIPS FREE saving you $15.50 in shipping cost.

Let's do the math.

• Customers who purchase $155 of SU! product pay $155 plus $15.50 shipping plus sales tax (for example 7.5% where I live) for a total of $183.28.
• New Demonstrators choose $155 of SU! product and pay $99 plus sales tax (again we'll use 7.5% where I live as an example) and get FREE SHIPPING on their Starter Kit for a total of $106.42.

Hmmm…$155 of SU! product for $183.28 or $106.42??? That's a savings of over $76 for the same amount of product. You have nothing to lose…just money (lots of money) to save by joining my team by May 31st.
