Sneak Peak Monday

Hello Stampers. . .

Are you aware that the Fall/Winter 2008 Catalog is quickly coming to an end? Now is the time to host that last workshop, have a catalog party, or place that last order to get all of the hostess only stamp sets you want before it's to late and they are gone for ever. January 18th is the Magic Date!!!

As you know with the retirement of the old hostess sets that will leave room for NEW Hostess ONLY stamp sets and you can be one of the first to get them for FREE when you schedule your workshop with me. I have my 2009 catalog and I'm ready to book your party. So call (309/343-9356) or e-mail me (georgia@mustainlindstrom.com) today!

Now you have two party options. 2008 Fall/Winter, 2009 Spring/Summer or Both!

I'm sure you'd love to see all of the new level 2 and 3 hostess only stamp sets right? Well the easiest way to see and even preorder one from each category is to join my Stampin' Up! family by becoming a demonstrator. The Stampin' Up! Starter Kit cost $199. The retail value of products and business supplies are more than $335.00, so you are getting quite a deal!

The best thing about being a demonstrator is that you are your own boss. Don't want to work weekends? That's OK. . you don't have to because you set your own schedule! Don't want to travel? That's OK, because you set your own events, so you don't have to travel if you don't want! Trust me being a demonstrator is very fun and rewarding. How rewarding . . . 20% (instant income) rewarding with the chance to earn an additional 20% based on your sales. . . so that's up to 40% income on what you sale, plus great rewards and incentive trips.

People often ask what the requirements are. The only requirement, to stay active with Stampin' Up!, is to have $300 in sales a quarter. There are no yearly renewal fees or hidden charges. . . just $300 in sales a quarter. If you have one show a month which reaches the first hostess level of $150 you can easily stay active. Some demonstrators easily purchase enough and/or only sell to close friends to make the reach minimum sales amount.

I have a Challenge for you! Grab your purse and take out your check book. Now total all of the checks in the past three months that are payable to Me! How much do you get? Are you close to $300. I know some of you ladies are close to or even over that amount.

Tired of paying full price? Think about it this way . . can you commit one night a month in order to NEVER pay full price on stamps and supplies again? You don't even have to commit one night a month. You do the math based upon the time you have and determine how much you'd have to work. However, I can hardly call stamping working, because it's something I love. And it's something I have fun doing and you will too.

Trust me you don't have to be perfect, and I'll be there to help you when you need me. . . . OK are you ready for a "Georgia Story". . . .Talk about not being perfect! At my last workshop I forgot my markers, ribbon scissors and paper cutter. I was to use one item on each of the 3 projects, so every project I pulled out I was like guess what I forgot! :o)

However I made it through! SU's ink pads are raised, so used the raised edge against the rubber instead of the markers that were sitting on my desk at home. My paper snips are pretty dull from being used almost daily for the past 3 years, but I got the ribbon cut. . . and THANK GOODNESS the hostess had a paper cutter as I almost never cut the make and take card stock until the party starts. I like to show how easy it is to cut the card stock. . . trust me this one was frustrating, because I specifically remember thinking I need to remember to put my paper cutter in my bag after I cut the card stock for my #2 project (aka project missing the ribbon scissors). . . what's the moral of the story. . . roll with the punches . . . simile . . . laugh and all will be fine!

Joining Stampin' Up! is easier than ever, because it's something you can do online! Click HERE to go to my website. There are a few videos you can watch to learn more and when you're ready please contact me directly for my recruiter password.

I know not everyone will join my family today, although I hope a few e-mail me with interest, question(s) or to get my password so that they and join online.

So you may notice the title above this long blog (btw . . thanks for reading this far) . . . Sneak Peak Monday! Today's samples were made using the level 2 hostess only stamp set A Little Somethin'.

What do you think? If you like me you gotta have it! BTW . . see the heart on the envelope? It was not cut out. It was punched out. . .yes I said Punch and it will be in the new catalog, and I'm just gonna have to get it. How about you?

Thanks for stopping by today!
