I am so overwhelmed and thankful for the wonderful responses Heather and I have received so far about our BIG LAUNCH of USTAMP!!!! I can't thank you enough for visiting the site, signing up and just being so nice and excited for us!!! Thank you!!! Heather and I have been FREAKING OUT together and are just so thankful, you ladies ROCK!!!!
Before I start with today's FREE PDF thank you I thought I should answer a few common questions we received yesterday about USTAMP.
What do I need to take this class?
All you need to take this class with us is paper, a paper cutter, adhesive and stamps. You do not have to use the same supplies we use to create your projects! It'll be fun to showcase new tools and stamps but it is not necessary for you to be successful to use all of the same supplies.
Are all the projects scrapbooking?
NO!!! For any of you that follow our blogs you know we LOVE packages and cards and 3D items and scrapbooking and...... There will be a huge variety of projects!
Can you summarize what you mean by 10 classes?
I will redescribe the class to you and hopefully summarize it more clearly. For $20 OR the kit deal, you will receive our first ever exclusive UStamp Class. Included in this class will be a minimum of 10 projects!!!! Each project will be a collection of items, for example 5 cards and a box could be one project. All projects will include step by step photos, dimensions and instructions.
What comes in the kit?
WOW Flowers Stamp Set (you'll see this NEW set popping up on Splitcoast soon enough!), Scallop Egde Punch (you won't regret this one!!!), Bella Rose Designer Series Paper, Baja Breeze Classic Ink Pad, Kiwi Kiss Classic Ink Pad, Pink Pirouette Classic Ink Pad, Tangerine Tango Classic Ink Pad, Riding Hood Red Classic Ink Pad, Pacific Point Classic Ink Pad, Heard from the Heart Stamp Set, 1 package of 8 1/2 x 11 Assorted In-Color Cardstock
Now my question to you is WHO WANTS A BLINKIE? If you'd like to post the Blinkie on your site right click on the blinkie on my blog and save it to your desktop. Then follow the instructions included in this file. Remember, if you refer 7 people to our UStamp Class you'll get the next one free!

As a thank you I thought I best be offering another teaser!!! Don't you just love new and fun ideas!?!!?
Well, in case you missed the exciting news yesterday, we are launching a new Stampin' Up! exclusive on-line class for ANYONE, customers, friends, fellow demonstrators! For only $20 (until the end of July then the price goes up!) you can get 10 (okay maybe some bonus activities in there!) classes! These aren't just card sketches these are actual classes or gift giving ideas you can create!
As a thank you we posted a FREE class planner for a 12x12 school year scrapbook which would be a fabulous class idea or a gift for a friend or better yet for yourself to help organize your child's school years "stuff"!
Click here to download your PDF file of a school years scrapbook (with modifications if you don't have children going through school or even for a card template!)
Today's template is a bit smaller but it is a tutorial on how to make this super cute bag. It's our way of saying thank you for being you!
