STAMPIN UP!

AUGUST SPECIAL OFFER!
























CLUBS

VIRTUAL HOSTESS CLUB

Have you ever wondered what a Virtual Hostess club entails? Here is a bit more info:

A Virtual Hostess club is an opportunity for you to build a nice collection of NEW Stampin' Up! product over a period of time while spreading the cost and ensuring you are still receiving the fantastic hostess benefits associated with a qualifying order. A qualifying order has a value of minimum £150. For this the hostess is eligible to the following FREE benefits

-One level one hostess stamp set of her choice (those are sets that cannot be bought, they can only be earned free with qualifying orders of £150 or more)

-£15.00 worth of free product to be spent as you wish in the catalogue.

So here comes our Virtual Workshop: 6 people get together ( I advertise for those people you don't have to provide 5 of them yourself, although of course if you know a crafting buddy who will love being part of this please let her/him know) and form a club, the club runs for 6 months, each member agrees to place a minimum order of £25.00/ month plus p&p. This will give us the minimum qualifying order we need every month. Each month 2  DIFFERENT members in the club get to be the hostess and collects the free benefits associated,  either the stamp set or free spend. By the end of the 6 months all the members in the club will have had their turn to be the hostess and receive their benefits.

It's as easy as that and each month a box of goodies will drop on your doorstep.

As part of my club you will get a FREE copy of the catalogue and any mini catalogues released through the club duration plus free samples, projects and freebies a few times/clubs. Fancy taking part? email me NOW at joannepress@hotmail.co.uk to secure your place.

Thanks

One for the Fella's


The challenge on Papertake Weekly this week is 'One for the Fella's'. Perfect theme for me to use the Sporty George digital downloads available from Charmed Cards & Crafts. Isn't rugby George fantastic, and as I'm from a town with a rugby team I think he'll come in quite useful :o)
