How much does Stampin' Up! LOVE their demos?

FREE SHIPPING CELEBRATION!
Because I'm in SUCH a fabulous mood today, I've decided to offer FREE SHIPPING on all my customer's Stampin' Up! orders from now until the end of July!
No matter where you are in Canada, you too can take advantage of this sweet deal to stock up on new catalogue goodies!
Why am I so happy, you might ask? Last night I learned that I have earned a place in the prestigious Founders Circle award for the 5th year in a row!
Not only did I place for the #1 in Sr. Associate Promotions award, but I also earned the #6 Demonstrator of the Year spot -- boy, was I ever excited!!!My heartfelt thanks go our to all my fabulous customers, hostesses, friends and of course the awesome women in my "Canadians, INK!" team... I would NOT be in this position without all of YOU.
YOU are why I love being a demonstrator, through the rocky times and the good ones too. Many of you know that this past year has been a particularly difficult with lots of health issues and family "stuff" to take care of. I have especially appreciated everyone sticking with me through it all; your support has meant the world to me.
THANK YOU!!

DESIGNER PAPER SHARE PACKS!
It's that time again... a new catalogue means fabulous new Designer Papers and don't we want them ALL?
Of course we do...but you who wants to spend hundreds of dollars or need THAT much paper all at once? Instead, try my paper samplers as they're a great way to have a bit of it ALL without breaking the piggy bank!
Here is how it works: When 8 of you sign up for a paper sampler, I order one of each of the Designer Papers in the Stampin’ Up Catalogue. I then cut them all up, sort them out, so that you will receive one 6×6 sheet of every Designer Paper to play with!
SAMPLER A:
There are 16 Packs of Designer paper and you will get one 6×6 sheet of each paper design, giving you a big stack of 96 sheets of DSP! 4 of the packs are Specialty style, so they have flocking or gloss or something special on one side.
SAMPLER B:

The IN COLOR pack has 40 sheets, 4 each of 5 colours. The Brights, Subtles, Regals and Neutrals all have 40 sheets, 10 colors in each pack, 2 each; each pack has 2 sheets with double-sided designs.
You will get one 6×6 of each colour and design for a total of 100 sheets (4 of the In Colors and 2 each of all the rest). That's 45 monochromatic colours in all!
These new paper ‘stacks’ have a glue padding (like a notepad) on one end. That means when I cut it up 4 ways, 2 of you get sheets that are already padded together.
Contact me to order yours today!
