Hi Stamping friends, this is my 2nd post for today. If you are looking for my card, you can find it Here.

This is the final week of Sale-a-bration 2024, it runs through Thursday, February 29! There are some awesome new products that you can earn for FREE with orders of $50+ and orders of $100+ placed during Sale-a-bration as well as a great host bonus and a joining special!

JOIN

Joining Stampin’ Up! as a demonstrator offers some fabulous opportunities, including:

Becoming part of our wonderful community
Attending exclusive demonstrator-only events
Having early access to products
Receiving a copy of our catalogs early
Participating in philanthropic events
Getting a 20% discount on our magnificent coordinating products
Joining our exclusive demonstrator-only Facebook group
Having the opportunity to earn a supplemental income, if you choose to sell.
Accessing our demonstrator-only weekly newsletter: Succeed Weekly
Bonus: Since it’s Sale-A-Bration, now is an excellent time to join and take advantage of the Join offer!

Sale-A-Bration is an excellent time you to join Stampin’ Up! In addition to the already great value of the Starter Kit, if you sign up as a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator during Sale-a-bration, you can choose from two incredible options:

Option 1: Purchase the $99 Starter Kit during Sale-a-bration, pick $125 worth of Stampin’ Up! merchandise of your choice and get the Stampin’ Glass Mat Studio ($60 value!) for FREE with your Starter Kit!
Option 2: Purchase the $99 Starter Kit during Sale-a-bration, pick $155 worth of Stampin’ Up! merchandise of your choice. That’s $30 additional merchandise for FREE when you purchase your Starter Kit!

Two joining options so you can pick the one that you like the best!!

There is never an obligation to sell. I know this sounds too good to be true, but it is. We are not like all the other sales companies out there; you are not obligated to sell. You can join as a hobby demonstrator just to enjoy the discount for yourself along with all the other demonstrator benefits. Once you join, you’ll get at least a 20% discount on all of your Stampin’ Up! merchandise purchases and you get to order early from the upcoming catalogs!

Unsure about this and want to talk? Contact me at creativestampingdesigns@gmail.com and we can talk. You can also find additional information Here at Join My Team. Being a part of the Stampin’ Up! Community is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I have made so many friends along the way while doing what I love, Paper Crafting. This Joining offer is only good during Sale-a-bration which ends in 1 week on Thursday February 29. Come join my team, we’re a relaxed bunch of stampers that like to stamp and share.

Basics Embossing Powders Sold Out Until Later This Year

Stampin’ Up! posted an update to let us know that the Basics Embossing Powders are sold out and won’t be returning until some time this fall. Here are the details from the update:

“We are in the process of switching manufacturers for our Basics Embossing Powders (item 155554). When we began this transition, North America selling trends indicated we had enough inventory to last through the end of the 2023–2024 Annual Catalog sales period. Since then, selling trends have shifted. The powders have been very popular, causing us to sell out far faster than anticipated. As much as we appreciate a high-selling item, it does create complications in this instance, as we’re currently out of Basics Embossing Powders in North America. As a result, we are discontinuing item 155554 for our North American market.

We will re-introduce the Basic Embossing Powders in the upcoming 2024-2025 Annual Catalog, but they’ll be under a different item number. Unfortunately, we anticipate that the new embossing powders will not arrive until fall. This means there will be some time North American customers can see the powders in our catalog but not be able to purchase them until they arrive.

We apologize for any complications this transition may create. Thank you for your patience as we eagerly await our new line of powders.”

MY CURRENT HOST CODE IS: T9JKA3XQ

Use this host code when placing an order with me. When you order $50 or greater you will receive a free gift from me! If your order is over $150, please do not use this code, but you’ll still get the free gift. The free gift is your choice of any 1 item valued up to $10.00 from the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog, the January-April 2024 Mini Catalog or from the Online Exclusives! Unfortunately, packs of cardstock are no longer an option for a free gift. Shipping has become too expensive to ship and it’s costing me as much to ship as the cardstock costs. For any orders $50 or more I will also send you my monthly class tutorials. Click HERE or go to my Customer Rewards for more details and to see what this month’s tutorials are.

Please remember to use my current Host Code and make sure that you can see my name on the final checkout page listed as your Demonstrator when you order so that you know that you’re ordering with me, and you’ll get my rewards!

Happy Stamping, Karen

*********************************************************************************************************

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well. I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.

Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater. And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly! OR….
If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.
