Stampin’ Up!
History:
Stampin’ Up! is a family run company that started in Utah in 1988 in the living room of co-founders Shelli Gardner & her sister. Now, Shelli’s daughter Sara is the CEO and is continuing to keep the company energized while staying true to their Statement of the
Heart: To love what we do and share what we love, as we help others enjoy creativity and worthwhile accomplishments…in this we make a difference.
Stampin’ Up! offers 3 catalogs a year that are
full of top notch, coordinating products for the beginner to advanced stampers.  Stampin’ Up! inspires creativity and confidence, provides opportunities for fun gatherings that build friendships, and a unique opportunity that fosters teamwork and community.  Stampin’ Up! is much more than stamps, ink and paper.
All of Stampin’ Up!’s stamps, ink
(most) and papers are made in the USA.
Being a demonstrator is different for everyone.  That’s why it’s perfect for everyone!  Any level stamper, from beginner to casual
to advanced, can join. Â You can choose to be any type of demonstrator you want: a hobbyist who stamps on their own and enjoys the discount, a stamping business owner who makes an income, or somewhere in between (there are many steps in-between). Â And, you can evolve over time depending on your changing needs/wants. Â I can help you figure out which path is right for you and help you along your journey.
You get to personalize your Starter/Joining Kit with any stamps, ink, paper and/or products that you wish!
During January & February you have three INCREDIBLE joining options:
- Option 1 – Join for $129: Receive the exclusive Boho Blue Mini Stampin’ Cut & Embossing Machine ($63 value) + your choice of $175* of
Stampin’ Up! products.
- Option 2 – Join for $129: Receive the original white Mini Stampin’ Cut & Embossing Machine ($63 value) + your choice of $175* of

- Option 3 – Join for $99: Your choice of $175* of Stampin’ Up! products.
       *That’s $50 more product than the standard Starter Kit offer!
Plus, with each of these options, you will also receive free shipping, a complementary Paper Pumpkin kit and catalogs to share with family & friends.  That’s up to $300 worth of products.  WOW!  I think everyone should sign up for
this deal with that kind of product value.
But there is so much more to it than free products. Â
A priceless amount.  Let me explain.
If you read my emails or posts, you already (or soon will) know about Stampin’ Up!’s high quality products.  Their range, variety, on-trend products are superior. All Stampin’ Up! products are purposely designed with coordination in mind.  And they get mailed directly
to you.  There is no comparison of Stampin’ Up! products to those in the big box hobby stores.
The priceless value of joining Stampin’ Up! is not with their products.
The priceless value is with all of the other things you get from being part of the Stampin’ Up! family (aka a demonstrator).

Up! announcements, news, products & resources

Demonstrator Perks:
By purchasing a Starter/Joining Kit with my link, you will become part of my Wicked Stampah’s stamping team.  We are stampers spread around the US and are all different level of stampers and types of demonstrators.  I provide my team with encouragement, creative & business consultation, team emails, advice, monthly online meetings, occasional in person gatherings and
access to our Wicked Stampahs Facebook group. I will be your biggest cheerleader.
As a demonstrator, you will receive a 20-25% discount on all of your own orders as well as 20-25% income on orders people place with you.  You get to see and purchase products before anyone else and have the opportunity to be the first to try them out. You’ll
receive weekly emails from Stampin’ Up! and have access to demonstrator only facebook groups, videos and company sponsored events.
All it takes to remain an active demonstrator
is meeting a quarterly sales requirement of $300. Sales include your own purchases plus those of any customers. Meeting your goals is made even easier with Stampin’ Up!’s promotions, training resources and regular catalog releases that feature awe-inspiring products that you and your customers will love.
You’ll love the flexibility and rewards of an
independent demonstrator with Stampin’ Up! and the Wicked Stampahs team.
Why do I love being a
Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator??
– It spurs my creativity
– I love sharing what I create (don’t you remember how excited and proud you were when your art was hung on the refrigerator or better yet, in the school??)
– Flexibility!  I started when my daughter was in
pre-school and now she’s in college. My stamping business adapted, slowed and grew to fit our family lifestyle & needs.
– It allows my artistic side to grow. When I look back at those beginning cards I made – wow, I have learned a lot!
– I have been able to earn an income.  The amount varies
depending on how much time & work I put into it. Â For a long time, I was happy to let my stamping to pay for my stamping.
– Instant creative family/community!  Several local and world wide communities in fact.  Stampin’ Up! is a global company.  I have made wonderful friends who live in other countries that I get to see in person and online in different groups.
– I love how all different types of people stamp for all different reasons and motivations. There is no one way to do it. Some be a demonstrator for the discount, some to get together with friends, some to meet new people, some to make a little income and some to make it a career.
– Only nice people stamp. I like being
with nice peopleÂ
– I love being a team leader and helping those on my team be the demonstrator they want to be. There are all sorts in my group and I support them all. Some have little teams of their own and some have no interest in that.
– Stampin’ Up! has really become part of who I am. I have been a
demonstrator for 16 years. Now that my kids are grown and don’t need me as much as they used to,  there is opportunity for me to grow in the Stampin’ Up! world and I’m excited to explore this opportunity.
