Reserve your Stamparatus and Christmas Quilt Trees Card Tutorial

Today is the day you can reserve your Stamparatus Tool!

The reservation window opens at 2:00 PM (MT) on November 16. While supplies last.

***Update: all the tools have been reserved. The next reservation window will open on December 5th ****

The cost of the Stamparatus is $65CDN and once the orders are ready to go in February it will also be Saleabration time! Yup – that means you’ll receive a free stamp set or product of your choice from the Saleabration brochure! How awesome is that??? I’m also sending out little gifts to everyone who reserves their Stamparatus via my online store too. Yay!

Reserve now for the November 16-30, 2017 reservation window

with delivery on or around February 1, 2018.

It’s big news when something breaks the mold and changes
everything. The Stamparatus will change the way you stamp, and before
long, you’ll wonder how you crafted without it!

Why do YOU need one? You’ll fall in love with stamping all over again when you learn everything you can do with it!

Okay. I’ve gotta have one. How do I get in line?

With the launch of this tool, we’re trying something
different: testing a new reservation system. It acts like a true
preorder: you reserve your spot and we guarantee shipment as soon as the
product arrives in our warehouse. Demonstrators and customers will
place reservations and receive their product at the same time. This
system will allow us to get the product to market as soon as possible
while avoiding backorders and efficiently managing inventory.
The global launch will feature three reservation windows. For each window, please note the following:

Reservation quantities are while supplies last.
Limit
is 3 tools per demonstrator and 1 tool per customer per reservation
window.
Demonstrators and your customers may participate in multiple reservation windows.
In order to reserve your Stamparatus, you are required to provide your credit card information.
Credit
cards will not be charged until the Stamparatus ships from our
facility. When you close your order, be sure to verify that your credit
card and shipping information is correct.

Let’s get onto today’s card!

This is my submission for this month’s Stampin’ Leaders Project Group. It is based on a card swap I received a few years ago from Linda Heller:
