Thinking about joining Stampin’ Up!?


There’s a lot I can share about Stampin’ Up!, joining and what that all means.  If you have ANY more questions after reading what I have here, please reach out to me.  I love to talk about Stampin’ Up!, the opportunities, what is has meant for me and others on my team.  I have been with Stampin’ Up! for 17 years and I could talk about all the good things it has done for me for a long time.  christine@mailsomethingpretty.com

Stampin’ Up! History

Me with Shelli Gardner, founder of Stampin' Up! on my first incentive trip to Norway.

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! is Over 35 Years Old!

Stampin’ Up! offers 3 catalogs a year that each full of high quality, 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.  The differences and individuality is why joining is perfect for everyone!  Any level stamper, from beginner to casual to advanced, can join.  You can choose to be: a hobby demonstrator who stamps on their own and enjoys the discount, a stamping business demonstrator who makes an income, or somewhere in between (there are many steps in-between).  And, you can evolve over time depending on your changing needs/wants.  I can help you figure out which path is right for you and help you along your journey.

Each Starter/Joining Kit is fully customizable.  Choose any products you wish!  Pay only $99 and choose any products you want totaling up to $125! Plus, you’ll also receive free shipping, a complementary Paper Pumpkin kit and catalogs to share with family & friends. 

During the month of October, you can join for $99 but choose $155 of products (instead of the regular $125)!!!!! Now is a great time to join!

But there is so much more when you join than free products

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 as a demonstrator:

  • early access to Stampin’ Up! announcements, news, products & resources
  • being a part of a world-wide community of stampers & sharers in many online groups.  The opportunity of connection & community is endless.
  • creative learning
  • access to demonstrator-only emails and Facebook groups
  • a 20-25% discount on your own purchases
  • an opportunity to earn 20-25% from people ordering from you
  • work your stamping business whenever & wherever you want
  • attend Stampin’ Up! demonstrator only events
  • access to my Wicked Stampahs Facebook group
  • monthly Wicked Stampahs online and in person meetings/gatherings
  • participate in Wicked Stampahs card swaps & birthday card mailings
  • 1:1 coaching from me to help with your stamping questions and/or business
  • If you decide it’s not for you, you can stop at any time (and keep all the things you ordered)

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 from around the US, at different levels and goals/intentions.  I provide my team encouragement, creative & business ideas, communication, 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 from any customers.  Stampin’ Up! helps us meet the minimums by ongoing promotions, resources and regular catalog releases that feature awe-inspiring products that you and your customers will love.

You’ll love the rewards of being an independent demonstrator with Stampin’ Up! and our 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??)
– 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!
– 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 teach classes and make videos.
– Only nice people stamp.  I like being with nice people ðŸ¤—
– 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 17 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.
