Stampin' Up! Celebrates Twenty Five Years! - Tina Zinck, Stampin' Up! Demonstrator

Hi Friends!

Did you know that Stampin’ Up! is celebrating it’s 25th Anniversary this year? It was great to be a part of this year’s Leadership Conference in Orlando, as this fabulous company kicked off their celebration! And the (almost) 11 years that I’ve been a demonstrator has been absolutely awesome – I’ve loved EVERY minute of it, and STILL do!

Stampin’ Up! really has made a BIG difference in my life. I’m grateful I made the decision to become a part of this amazing company, back in 2002 when they first opened in Canada. I had no intentions of having parties, workshops or selling. I worked full time for the airlines at the time, which I loved, and I just wanted the discount to support my Stampin’ Up! addiction. And so, it turns out, did my friends. I began receiving orders – everyone wanted the fantastic stamps and accessories that Stampin’ Up! offered – and many also bought the starter kit so that they could get a discount too. The rest is history! I turned my hobby into a full time business three years ago and there’s no holding me back! :-) Stampin’ Up! is in my blood. I love EVERYTHING about it – the products, the company, my customers, my “Serene Stampers” group and sister-hood with other Stampin’ Up! demonstrators and all the friendships that have come through this amazing business of mine. And bottom line, stamping and crafting is just so much FUN I know I will never, ever get bored of it. Especially when Stampin’ Up! keeps on coming out with the coolest, trendiest products to play with !!!

During the Leadership Conference Stampin’ up! shared a video with us that they had put together to commemorate their anniversary. Take a tour of our Distribution Center—from an order’s point of view—and
check out some of Stampin’ Up!’s achievements and milestones over the
past 25 years.

Here are some more awesome card samples that I received at the Leadership Conference earlier this month, featuring our new products and stamps from the 2013 Stampin’ Up! Spring Catalogue and 2013 Sale-a-Bration! ENJOY!

I’ll be back tomorrow with more cards to share with you. Don’t they just make you want to stamp? In fact, I think I WILL! I still have to get my Christmas thank you cards made and mailed out so off to my hobby room I go! I’ll post my thank you cards for you tomorrow. I’ll be caseing a card that Shelli Gardner, Stampin’ Up! Co-Founder and CEO, demonstrated at the Conference. It was so quick and easy – I can’t wait to stamp some too!

HAPPY STAMPING!
