May Class Projects

Well with all the flurry of new catalogue launch, I almost forgot to share my May class projects with you...! 

They feature the all new goodies with a simple fancy fold and two other fun cards. 

For the first we used the Lazy Days stamps - the middle one we did a layered Cheerful Daisies card and the last if our fantastic Crafting with You bundle.

For my newsletter demo friends - check your email inboxes for a video link for these three cards with some teaching tips.

My launch event / thank you party day - NEW Catalogue 2023 - Colour Refresh & More

Well it was a busy few weeks getting ready - but my first all-day Elizabeth's Craft Room Retreat went down a storm with my lovely ladies!  Apologies for the photo and video heavy post here.

We did launch party activities in the morning where I talked through the colour refresh, shared some of my favourite new products and offered my customers the chance to partake of my launch promotion 'Liz's Lovely Launch Loot. 

If you haven't heard of this before, it is a way of me clearing out my retired, pre-loved Stampin' Up! goodies and my ladies getting free items to take home when they order. I run it like Sale-A-Bration so they pick one retired stamp set for a £45 order or a bundle or two stamp sets for £90.

I always get questions about my display stands. I made them myself using old fashion metal laundry airers and foam board. Unlike commercial velcro boards they are light and I can easily get my cards lined up straight - which makes my brain happy! LOL 

For my ladies the most ordered item was the Crafting with You bundle, second was the Cheerful Daisies bundle and third and fourth respectively were the Bubble Bath and Lemon Lolly ink pads.  

Here are some of my favourite display projects - feel free to CASE (copy and share everything!) 

After a lovely lunch. we made 5 little projects including a reverse colouring Cheerful Daisies card and a new colour sampler. Just for information while almost all my ladies made the other projects only about half made the colour sampler. It is always interesting to note what is popular isn't it? 


Finally another popular stand was the sign up for my latest fancy folds class featuring the Countryside Inn DSP and 10 fun fold cards. I had so many sign up, I am going to need to squeeze 3 extra tables in my teaching room! 

And you can teach it too! Find out more about this ready-to-teach class HERE. 


I hope you had or will have a good launch event - small or large, online or in person - sharing what we love is the best way to build your business and make Stampin' Up! friends for life!
