May 2024 Newsletter - Christine Josti, Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator At the moment, I'm Mexico at an incredible resort called Xcaret in Cancun. The reason I'm here is because Stampin' Up! rewards demonstrators who meet certain criteria in sales, leadership and team building. I want to thank
you all for supporting me and my efforts in reaching the threshold for earning this incentive trip. It takes a lot of time, effort, energy and creativity. In fact, less than .01% of total demonstrators earned this incentive trip! Out of 49,000 global demonstrators, only 348 earned it. I am proud, humbled, thankful and
excited. If you love doing something, then the time & effort are worth it. Sharing what I do with others brings me joy and I hope to you too. I love it when you send me emails, messages and cards telling me all about the fun experiences you have while stamping, or if something I showed you made a helped you out. During this trip, it's been emphasized that Stampin' Up! is about people first, building communities & connections, providing opportunities for learning, being creative and then the products. This is so true!!!!!! This particular email is a bit product heavy because of the new catalog launch. When I am back from Mexico, I'll be showing and sharing
some projects that I've seen & made. For now, Adios! This week's live will be coming from Mexico! My husband was not able to attend this Mexico trip, so I invited my good friend Ann Lewis to be my guest. Ann is an Australian demonstrator who many of you are getting to know through our monthly lives. See what I mean about making connections through stamping? Ann & I do monthly joint lives on the last Thursday
of the month. Since we are together, we've decided to do an "Ask Us Anything". Thank you to those who have submitted questions! If you have questions for either or both of us, please send them in!!! This week's live will be at our regular time! Thursday May 2 at 8pm EST. If you can't join us live, you can always watch the replay. FB - https://www.facebook.com/mailsomethingpretty/ YouTube - https://mailsomethingpretty.com/YouTube You may already have a copy of the catalog, or you may have heard about it from other demonstrators. Just by looking at the front
cover you can see that it's different from all other Stampin' Up! catalogs. This catalog visually shows that creating is better together - get together with a friend or two. Chat & stamp. What's important is the connections and together time you are having. In my opinion, there are two very important sections that will help you navigate the new set up: the table of contents and back index. Keep referring to those two sections and you should be able to find what you are looking for. Use this catalog in conjunction with the online store. Utilize both the search bar at the top - type in a descriptor word such as "envelopes" or "Crumb Cake" and all the associated products will appear. Then you can choose the specific one you are looking for. You can also utilize the menu bar which is divided into specific categories. Every product that Stampin' Up! sells will be in the online store: all products that are in the catalog, all carryover products, all kits, all online exclusive products and anything that is in the Clearance Rack. So, if you can't find it in the catalog, it doesn't mean it's not available. Double check online. Are you ready to see the new catalog? View the 2024 Annual Catalog Online Store Updates With the launch of this new Annual Catalog, Stampin' Up! updated the online store navigation to make your shopping experience easier. Beginning on May 1, you’ll see a new section on the Stampinup.com home page called Shop by Ways to Craft. It organizes our products into three different categories—Step-By-Step, Quick & Easy Options, and Creativity Your Way. You’ll also find these new categories under the Menu tab after selecting the Shop By option.
Organizing products by shopping categories, or Ways to Craft, makes it easier than ever to find products that align with
specific crafting preferences. For more detail on what our Ways to Craft means, simply click the Learn More button within each category.
If you prefer to shop by product category, that navigation hasn’t changed. Instead, Stampin' Up! simply added a new route to consider which should make finding favorites even easier. New In Colors! You are going to see these new In Colors everywhere! They are happy, calming and what I am calling "Vivid Subtles" because they are not too bright and they are not too soft. Kind of like Goldilocks, they are just right. Did you know that Peach Pie is pretty similar to the 2024 Pantone Color of the Year? - Looking to doing more with your stamping & Stampin' Up!?
