Boho Indigo Mega Class

Hello and welcome to Ready, Set, Demo

Ever since I saw it, I knew I wanted to teach a class with the Boho Indigo goodies...and then came COVID!  We are back in lockdown here in the UK and we can't stamp together - but I couldn't wait any longer - I had to figure a way to teach this by post! 

Whether your are able to gather together or you need a class you can teach by post, this is the class for you. The class by post uses half the refill kit and relys on punches and dies - but of course you can use the whole bundle if you can gather. 



Well I say class - but I am calling this a mega-class!  Although I did teach this class all in one go, it would work for an all day event or could be split into two months worth of projects. We are making two gift boxes and 15 cards in total - and my lovely ladies have adored creating it. 



As usual my online classes are aimed to help you as a demonstrator and make your life easier, so you will receive 

  • Cutting lists with all measurements in inches worked out for A4 and US letter card stock sizes
  • Ordering per customer list - with options noted 
  • Pricing notes and ideas with things to remember to include
  • Printable instructions and photos so you can teach to customers whether they are online or not - add your own logo! 
  • Reference photos of all of the projects 
  • No logo photos of the whole class in each option for you to watermark and use in your business 
  • Videos for each project with and introductory teaching tips and ideas video

If you would like to order this class you order it below. Just click to pay securely and I will send the class to your email inbox as soon as I see the payment. Remember I may be asleep if we are on the other side of the world - but I will send as soon as I wake up :)

The cost is £10 which is approx $13 US depending on the Paypal exchange rate today. Just click the buy now button to order. 

If you want to see more, below you will find a short video giving you a closer view of the projects to help you decide if this class is for you.


**NOTE: Products used in this class were current at the time the class was designed. In many cases an alternative stamp/punch/die or DSP design will work for the projects**

Welcome to Ready Set Demo 

Just a quick post today with a video featuring the upcoming Dragonfly Garden....




This suite of goodies is available to order right now if you are attending OnStage@home - and will be coming soon to a catalogue near you! :) 

I did a quick video showing the suite, demonstrating a frequently asked question about the stamps - and showing lots of example cards I have made. 




I hope you enjoy it.

Fancy Fold Library Class - Part 4

Well I know most of us love a fancy fold card - and this is a class that has 10 of them! Although the actual designs are done using the Sweetest Time bundle from the 2020 mini - these folds could be used at any time by switching out the stamps and designer paper. 

My customers know these classes as "Cards that make you say oooh" and they really do! 

If you would like to teach this class without working out a single measurement, figuring out what to order or even taking a photo like the one below - I am here to help! 




The Fancy Folds Library 4 class is available now with the following items included: 

  • An introduction video with teaching tips 
  • A video for each of the projects - showing step by step how to make a template of the fold and the finished example card 
  • An index and cutting sheet for each project in inches and worked out for A4 & US letter sizes 
  • An ordering/pricing guidance sheet to help you plan your class
  • A no-logo photo for advertising purposes
  • Reference photos of each of the projects showing the fold in action
  • All edited for printing in both A4 & US letter size and with spelling changes where needed 
To get the class now? Just click on the button below to pay securely by Paypal. 
The price is just £10, which is about $13 US depending on the exchange rate. 


As soon as I receive your payment, I will pop the class across to you by email. (If we are in another part of the world, you may need to wait for me to wake up :) ) 

Want to see more about this class...watch the video below. 



I was asked recently about my other Fancy Fold classes - and yes there are all still available. We are up to a staggering 66 folds now - but they are so useful to turn to when you are stuck for a wow project. I keep a file with each cutting sheet and a template for quick go-to classes with the latest stamps and papers. 

If you have any questions, you can contact me at liz.shannon@icloud.com and I will get back to you. 

**NOTE: Products used in this class were current at the time the class was designed. In many cases an alternative stamp/punch/die or DSP design will work for the projects**

Curvy Celebrations and LIVE on Facebook!

Eeeek! What a week! 

Well I took the bull by the horns and went LIVE on Facebook in the real world. I have of course been doing this every week since March - but this time in was on my Elizabeth's Craft Room Facebook page rather than in the safety of my private customer group. 


I won't lie - I was nervous, but once I got started - and some of you lovely demo friends showed up and said hello in the comments, I felt at home. 

I have done two lives now, (I am doing them every Tuesday at 2pm UK time to keep consistent), so I thought I would pop a link on here so you can take a peek if you like :) 

I showed how to make a candle holder this week. And if you are on my newsletter list a link for the printable instructions is winging it's way towards you - check your email in box. 






Oh and as if one video isn't enough I did an unboxing and some making (actually quite a lot of making) with the pre-order Curvy Celebration goodies. You can see that here...



I will be back soon with a Fancy Folds class .... always popular 

Love Liz X

Snowflake Splendour - NEW Online Class

So is it spelt splendour or splendor where you live?  Somehow the wrong spelling for us slipped through proof reading in the UK catalogue - but we don't mind - that bundle is beautiful. 

So of course I had to share it with my customers and with you in the form of a new class. This can be taught by post and online for those of us who still can't meet in person - but if it is safe to gather again where you are, it works just as well in person. 


This class features some really pretty projects...we have 

  • Two trio boxes
  • A pop up gift card holder 
  • A pull up/hanging card with optional large envelope
  • plus 3 stunning cards
You can teach these one at a time - or as a big single class. You can include product, (which I suggest as it helps your sales), or you can modify the class to keep customer costs down. You know your customers best, so you know what works for them.  

  
As usual my online classes are aimed to help you as a demonstrator and make your life easier, so you will receive 

  • Cutting lists with all measurements in inches worked out for A4 and US letter card stock sizes
  • Ordering per customer list
  • Pricing notes and ideas with things to remember to include
  • Printable instructions and photos so you can teach to customers whether they are online or not - add your own logo! 
  • Reference photos of all of the projects 
  • No logo photos of the whole class in each option for you to watermark and use in your business 
  • Videos for each project with and introductory teaching tips and ideas video

If you would like to order this class you can click below to pay securely and I will send the class to your email inbox as soon as I see the payment. Remember I may be asleep if we are on the other side of the world - but I will send as soon as I wake up :)

The cost is £10 which is approx $13 US depending on the Paypal exchange rate today. Just click the buy now button to order. 

Or if you would like to take a closer look first - just have a look at this video...

Celebrating YOU & Tips for sharing the Little Treats Bundle

Welcome to Ready Set Demo 

I hope you are all keeping safe and well and managing to run your business whatever the COVID situation is where you are in the world.


I had rather a lovely surprise on Saturday night. I was attending the Online Leadership event run by Stampin' Up! - and to my amazement I had my story told by Ken, one of the Stampin' Up! corporate team. He shared how I had turned my totally face to face business around and exceeded my best ever quarter sales twice. He also explained how my team and lovely customers had donated cards and postage stamps to our local hospital staff to help them keep in touch with their families during the worst of the pandemic here. I was blown away!

Now I want to turn that compliment over to you - because if you have had to learn new ways to share and connect during this weird year - you deserve that same recognition. You are awesome! 




At the time of writing, I am half way through my Mini Launch Week - showing off some of the beautiful suites, bundles and other goodies from our Aug-Dec catalogue. If it is as successful as my main launch back in May/June I will be delighted. There are a couple of post/video links below that might help if you want ideas on connecting with your customers or launching a catalogue. If you are back to meeting in person - woo hoo! It must be lovely to connect again. 

KEEPING OUR Stampin' Up! BUSINESS GOING DURING COVID

HOW TO LAUNCH WHEN YOU CAN'T MEET IN PERSON VIDEO

But enough of all that - I tempted you with pretty things! My most popular share so far with my lovely ladies was showing them three different ways to use the Little Treats Bundle. 



If you are not on my newsletter list and would like the measurements and no logo photos mentioned in the the video - email me and I will send them to you. 


 Love Liz
