Stamping with Washi Tape? You've got to be joking!

My Top 10 Reasons I Love Stampin' Up


I absolutely love Stampin' Up from the products to the support but here is my ultimate Top 10 in reverse order.

10.  Tools - Stampin' Up provide all the tools you need to be able to carry out all sorts of tasks from the simplest to the complicated.  My favourite is probably the Score Board but I change my mind everyday 😊

9.  Support - whether you're a customer or a demonstrator, Stampin' Up look after you.  They offer excellent customer service on all purchases and support demonstrators through their website.

8.  The Catalogue - as well as providing a wide range of products, the catalogue offers inspiration by giving project ideas with fantastic photography;  it shows products in suites where everything is colour coordinated; and it provides something for everyone.

7.  Ink/blends/markers/pencils - whatever your preferred way of colouring, Stampin' Up provide the tools.  And you don't have to be a budding artist to be able to use them effectively.  They are so easy to use, anyone can colour with them.

6.  Embellishments - handmade cards can be taken up another level by adding an embellishment or two (or three).  Gems, ribbons, twine, shapes, clips, bows can make your project look super special

5.  Stamps - and what a variety of stamps.  They come in two different types: photopolymer and cling (red rubber).  Photopolymers are ideal for the beginner stamper as you can see the image through the block.  Red rubber stamps give a more detailed image - they are simply stunning

4.  Punches - not 👊👊👊 but the crafting variety.  There are punches for circles, cats, dogs, butterflies, labels, balloons, leaves, flowers, elephants, the kitchen sink - what??? - ok so not the kitchen sink but you get my drift.  Using punches gives a quick and perfect shape every time.  I absolutely love them

3.  Colour Coordination - Stampin' Up pull out all the stops to make sure that your projects are all colour coordinated.  Their inks match their cardstock which match the blends, which match the designer series paper.  This gives all your projects the professional look and saves you time trying to match everything.

2.  DSP (Designer Series Paper) - its sooooo pretty and just the most fantastic quality.  This annual catalogue especially has seen lots of gender neutral paper.  There are your traditional flowery, girly prints but there's also some great images for teenagers (we all know how hard it is to make a card for a teenager) as well as some child friendly paper too.  Sometimes, no fancy stamping is required - the DSP (with coordinating cardstock) speaks for itself.  Perfect for the beginner crafter.

1.  The Community - being a demonstrator, I have joined the most amazing team of ladies (no men have decided to join us yet).  My teammates are supportive; bonkers; my cheerleaders and most importantly, friends for life.  After being a demonstrator for 2 years, I now can't imagine not being a part of this amazing community

Don't just take my word for it - come and see for yourself by visiting my shop and looking at the wonderful selection of products.
