Vintage Book Box - Online Class

Do you sometimes design something and think Wow! I LOVE that! Well that was me when I designed this new online class. They look like books - but they are storage boxes. Yay! Anyone here not like storage? :D 



I am calling it my Vintage Book Box class and it includes three sizes of storage or gift boxes that look like books. 

You can fit so much in these boxes; blends and markers (stored flat of course), ribbon and bling, adhesive and tools and each size fits our standard cards and envelopes, notecards or 3X3 cards too.  See more about this class in the video at the bottom of this post. 


Whether you are creating for yourself or teaching a class - these videos and instructions will save you time and effort as all the working out is done for you. I am even including an ordering list and pricing ideas as well as all the usual measurements and photos (non-logo so you can use in your class advertising). 

As well as the boxes themselves there are also some card ideas in case you want to teach them too. My example boxes and cards are using DSP from the 19/20 and spring Mini catalogues - but can be swapped out for any other papers and stamps you like. 
Here is what is included
  • All cutting and scoring measurements for each project - all in inches for both A4 and US Letter sizes of card stock
  • A printable sheet with instructions, hints and tips and the order of construction - and you are welcome to share these at in-person classes with your customers! There are no logos and they are editable - you can add your own logo if you wish. 
  • Optional card ideas in case you want to teach co-ordinating cards as well with a show and tell and technique demonstration video. 
  • step by step video for how to make the Vintage Book Boxes with lots of extra teaching tips 
  • Printable photos of both cards and book boxes for your class advertising and for your reference
  • Bonus measurements for standard A4 and US Letter cards and layers
  • Per-customer ordering list to make class planning a breeze 
  • Ideas for pricing and my actual pricing for teaching this class 
If you would like to receive this Vintage Book Boxes class you can order securely via PayPal by clicking the button below. 
The price is just £10 - about $14 US. I will email the class over as soon as I receive the order - but allow time in case I am teaching - or sleeping if we are in a different time zone :) 



**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** 


Thank you to everyone who is enjoying my classes designed especially for demonstrators. I try my best to take as much work out of sharing Stampin' Up! with your customers as I can. These are some of the lovely emails I have had recently. You all make my heart smile. 

I know I already said thanks, but I wanted you to know what a huge hit your class was!! Everyone loved it, and several demos commented on what great designs they were. Ann O

I recently purchased your Poppy Class Kit, 48 techniques and stamparatus techniques. I just had to take time and thank you for your effort you put into these wonderful, well thought out tutorials. I love how everything is laid out so perfectly from measurements to videos. I enjoyed putting together my techniques binder. Making the samples and setting up the binder was fun. Thanks again and keep those classes coming! June A

Thank you so much Liz.  Can’t wait to start playing. Once again you have taken a load off my shoulders & it never goes unappreciated. Vikki W

Another great tutorial project!  Made it right away.  I think my customers are going to love it.  Doing your Sailing scrapbook this month.  Great instructions and video as well.  Thank you for making these wonderful projects available to purchase.  I know it takes a lot of time designing, typing all the dimensions and making the videos.  Look forward to your next project!

Back from Dortmund OnStage Live - with All Dressed Up Dies tips and tricks

Welcome to Ready Set Demo

Well I am just back from Dortmund, Germany and an amazing OnStage Live. I got to spend time with demo friends old and new, and it made my heart happy to hear about how my classes and tips have helped the businesses of demos around the world.

One of the new product highlights for me is the All Dressed Up bundle - especially the dies. Our demo presenter was the lovely Fannie Minnie from Austria. She didn't have the time to actually put together a bag however, so I have made a video to help you skip some of the learning curve and make some stunning projects with these dies first time out of the pack.


The video below shows lots of tips and tricks to create your bags and I can't wait to play more and find out how else I can use them. 


I am also doing a little happy dance as my with-product classes have rocked me up to no. 7 for UK sales and no. 19 overall - not bad for a face to face business! I will be back in the new year with some Ready to Teach classes and with-product classes to help you with your business. In the meantime, you may also like my technique and other class project videos which you can find here. 

Enjoy the video. 




 Love Liz

Class projects to generate sales

Welcome to Ready Set Demo

I filmed this video for my main blog and it will go live next month...but I wanted to give a preview here because these class projects are going down REALLY well with my customers.

They are loving that two of the three projects use the same So Many Stars bundle - and it is generating much higher than usual at class sales.


Feel free to CASE for your upcoming classes and fingers crossed your customers love this bundle as much as mine do!  Teaching tip - get everyone to make the quick pillow box project before the card so they have the little stars on hand at the right time.

Seasonal, technique, fancy folds and more! 

Enjoy the video


Love Liz x
