STAMPIN' UP!

CLUBS
STAMPERS 6 CLUB Would you like to build up your Stampin’ Up! collection and receive freebies and hostess benefits but don’t want to host a workshop? Join a Stamper’s six club. Here's how it works: You will receive a stampin’ up! Idea book and catalogue for FREE (retail value is £4.95). All you need to do is agree to place an order of £25 or more per month for six months, really easy when you know the quality and choice of SU goods. During these six months you will become a hostess for one month. You will then earn hostess benefits starting at £150 in sales. So when each of the six people place their order for £25 or more you will not only get to choose a hostess gift set but also £15 in FREE merchandise. Just think…you can earn hostess benefits just by spending£25 a month. That is approximately £6.25 per week. *Don’t worry if you don’t know five other people interested in joining a club. I will create a club once I have six people interested.To join a club please e-mail me at:-paula@craftycow.me.uk
