FANtastic Nature - Nature's Poem Suite and NEW READY TO TEACH class.

Welcome to Ready Set Demo

Woo hoo! I have taken a couple of days to take a breath and recover from an amazing experience at  OnStage at Telford UK, where I was asked to present the new Nature's Poem Suite.



On this post I have LOTS pictures and project ideas including a new READY TO TEACH class called FANtastic Nature for you. Enjoy the video - check out the projects below and feel free to CASE as you get ready for the new 2018-19 catalogue launch. 




To order my FANtastic Nature READY TO TEACH class securely on Paypal - click below.

  • 5 video tutorial projects (as pictured above) including the fabulous fan
  • Teaching & up-selling tips video 
  • Cutting measurements (inches) 
  • Photos without logos to use on your social media 
  • Editable flyer/poster for advertising your class 
  • Ordering and pricing information in CSV 



**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** 


Now I am editing two things: 

And I did my sums the wrong way round converting UK£ to US$. £11 is about $16US after Paypal do the exchange rate.  Thank you Kelly W for pointing this out

 YAAAAY! brads are back. I am not sure how long the 'legs' are so you may be able to make the fan with the new brads - but until they let us get our hands on them I am not sure. The twine or ribbon will work just fine though.

OnStage Team Gifts

Welcome to Ready Set Demo

Oooh - how exciting! As this post goes live I am at OnStage Local in Telford UK with some of my team and several hundred excited demo friends!

As soon as we are allowed, I will be back here with more to share from OnStage...but I thought I would show you my swaps and team gifts today.

I always try to spoil my team - we have treats and usually a glass or two of something fizzy back at the hotel. Over the years I have given all sorts of gifts. This year I am giving a padded zip bag to keep our new catalogues safe. We are called the Dazzling Dreamers (because if you can dream it, you can do it), so we always have something dazzling. This year it is purple sparkly lanyards and matching extending clips. We also have sparkly notebooks, bag tags and stationery sets.



I have gone to every European Convention and OnStage since I started and I love them. I have presented on MainStage a lot over the years - including a stint serving on the Stampin' Up!  Events Council which was an amazing experience. I can tell you from a behind the scenes perspective a HUGE amount of hard work goes in to these events and the staff and volunteers work tirelessly to give us a great show.

If you have never been, I would encourage you to aim to go next time. You can even pay with flex points - and I can honestly say I always come home inspired and excited to build my business and share everything I have learned with my team and customers.

Back as SOON as the embargo is lifted to share more with you.

Love Liz

Just for my fellow demos - 2 easy to teach projects

Welcome to Ready Set Demo




Brrr - it is COLD here in Southampton, England today! This is the view from my craft room...

....so I am staying here in the warm, writing to you, making a video and designing some projects for my upcoming classes.





I have made a video especially for my fellow demos on how to make two very easy-to-teach projects that have led on to more sales at the class.

I called the class 'Neat and Pretty' and it included 4 cards, an adhesive holder and a storage tin.













**edited to add - thank you for your lovely comments. The size of my tin is approx. 5 1/2" X 4" X 1 3/4" deep - but any small tin would work just fine. **

We also made 4 cards at class using Stampin' Blends and the Petal Passion DSP. (pic below the video) The class was was quick to prep, quick to teach and the ladies loved it.




I hope you have a great 'rest of Sale-A-Bration' and I will be back soon with some new Ready to Teach classes. 

Love Liz X

Teaching my READY TO TEACH

Welcome to Ready Set Demo

I am just back from a lovely Disney holiday and came across the pictures I took just before I left. This was the second class I taught featuring my Painted with Love Vanity Case and cards.



We actually created all these goodies in under 3 hours and my only helper was my DH Mike who made tea and coffee.



The ladies were very proud of their projects - 2 of them were brand new crafters too!



These were the kits I did for them. As the product included earned me lots of Sale-A-Bration goodies - I split the Memories and More packs and shared them out so they got half a pack each. I made them a little gift box for the smaller ones and the extra mini cards - because my lovely ladies are worth it! :)



Such a fun morning.  If you haven't seen the class details you can find them here.

READY TO TEACH - VANITY CASE PAINTED WITH LOVE CLASS



VANITY CASE PAINTED WITH LOVE CLASS


Your existing and new customers will LOVE to create this super cute vanity box and 10 cards and as well as having a goody bag of DSP, cards and bling to take home. 

Are you ready to join me and increase your sales and income while making your customers happy? 

With product classes take work. I spend lots of time designing, measuring, planning and producing advertising for my very successful with-product classes - now you don't have to! 


Pay securely with Paypal and you will receive your class in your email inbox within 24 hours - usually much sooner.  


Why teach with-product classes?  

The biggest change I have made to my business over the past few years is including Stampin' Up! product within the class fee. It is largely due to this that I reached number 9 for sales in the UK  - and I run a traditional class based business - no online sales have helped in that achievement.  


Like to see more? check out my video! 






Much more than just an online class - my Painted with Love Ready to Teach Class includes:

  • Full video tutorials 
  • Advertising and preparation hints & tips 
  • Teaching hints & tips 
  • Ordering list including class profit calculations for those of you who like numbers 
  • Cutting sheet with measurements in inches adapted for your choice of A4 and US Letter size cards with photo for you to use and share with customers
  • DSP cutting pattern to ensure your box has all the DSP in the same direction (important for us OCD girls!)
  • Editable flyer ready for you to share
  • Non-logo photos ready for social media and blog use 
The cost for all of this is just £11 and you will be Ready To Teach!

Pay securely with Paypal and you will receive your class in your email inbox within 24 hours - usually much sooner.

ONLINE CLASS LAUNCH - EMBOSSING PASTE TECHNIQUES


Today I am launching my new ONLINE CLASS- featuring 12 Embossing Paste Techniques.

I am confident you will find some here you have never seen...and as the paste is very versatile and because it drys so fast it is perfect for classes and demonstrations and all sorts of projects. This online class can be an add-on to my original techniques class - or can be a stand alone class.

It is designed to be used with the Memories and More system and includes printable instructions that fit your file or can be given out to customers,  (A4 and US paper sizes), layout photos and of course 12 step by step videos.

Especially for demonstrators, there is also a video on different ways of teaching this class and sharing the techniques with your customers and a way of printing just one technique 9 times on one sheet for when you are just teaching a single project.



**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** 

Find out more by watching the video or order now by simply by clicking below and selecting the stamper or demonstrator option.

Click Now to purchase this class for just £10. It will be sent to you within 24 hours - usually much faster.
