Hello there....

Well, I've never been a big fan of orange. It's always been a tough color for me....except for when it comes to Autumn and pumpkins and orange T-shirts on my blue eyed boys...

It's not a color I reach for often in my card making, but when I saw this card, I found that I loved the color combination! What do you think?

I found this on a great blog "My Direct Sales" . With the last few days of our special opportunity to sign up with Stampin'Up! (enter my recruiter password of stamptimesomewhere) for only $169 and the added benefit of your choice of an extra stamp set, I thought I might post this for anyone who might be considering, but hurry, the offer ends on the 31st....

I’ve been asked many times the benefits of a direct sales business over a privately-owned one-person business.  While I’m not suggesting one is better than the other, I’d like to share what I believe are some of the benefits of having a direct sales business:

1. Lots of options. There are many direct sales companies to choose from. You can choose a company that meets your needs in terms of products and compensation plans.

2. You do not have to develop the product yourself. The company will take care of product manufacturing and product support materials.

3. The start-up costs are usually very minimal. You pay for a starter kit and possibly a few support materials. While you can often purchase a company site, you do not need to invest in site development, shopping carts and other sales related items needed for an internet presence.

4. While the income is completely commissioned, the hours are very flexible. You can work around children’s schedules, outside work schedules and other commitments you may have. If you need to work in the early morning or late at night, it can be done.

5. Many people enjoy the recognition that direct sales offers. It’s really awesome to see your name in print and to be recognized for your achievements. I’ve heard many times that the recognition makes the work very worthwhile.

6. If you are a person who enjoys helping others, direct sales might be a perfect choice. You’ll help people through product sales and you’ll also help people when you bring them into the business and mentor them in sales and leadership.

7. The opportunity for personal growth is enormous. When I look back at where I was ten years ago and where I am today, it’s astounding. There are so many awesome mentors out there very willing to help you and coach you.

8. If you love the products you’re selling, it’s awesome to receive a discount on your own purchases. I’ve met many people over the years who have joined companies strictly for the benefit of the discount for themselves and their family.

These are just eight benefits of joining a direct sales company. Is network marketing right for you?

Introducing a New Monthly Card Swap!!!

I know that a lot of Demonstrators love having samples from every stamp set we have, and I know that stamping "customers" (I don't like that word...as you are so much more) like that too. HOWEVER, I am one that would prefer to have more samples from the stamp sets that I own and demonstrate, to truly show the versatility and really launch my creative process.

So that being said, I'd like to start hosting a monthly swap. This swap will be open to everyone, not just Demonstrators, I only ask that ALL supplies are Stampin' Up! (with the exception of things like staples, paper clips, etc...). This will be a "best quality" , so you'll want to do your best work...Fancy isn't required, but neat is!

At the end of each month, the 25th or so , I will list 4 stamp sets, 3 from the current Idea Book and Catalog, and one from the current mini catalog. This stamp set needs to be the "main" image on the card, you can still use backgrounds and sentiments. Sign ups will end on the 5th of the following month, and all cards will be mailed to me by the 15th. I will then mail you your cards. The groups will be small to start, then depending on interest, we can grow! This will be a +1, full card swap, so for each swap you will make 7 FULL cards (not fronts) - keep one for yourself then you will get 5 more back, giving you 6 samples. Sound fun?
