Big News

Hey everyone,

I know I’m haven’t been posting very much the last few months, but I have a really good excuse.  I found out at the end of January that I’m expecting.  The baby is due in September.  I’ve been really sick, but I’m finally feeling better.  Thanks so much to everyone has continued to support me when I wasn’t feeling so good.

Next comes my EXTRA BIG NEWS!  For those of you who know me and those that don’t I currently have 4 boys.  We found out on Monday that we will finally be getting our BABY GIRL.  She’s the last so I know she will be very spoiled, but I am so excited to be having a girl.  I can hardly wait to make cute things for her using all of our great products.

So once again I just wanted to say thanks for your support and I’m feeling better now so I’d love to book a party with you.  Let me know how I can help.

Have a Stamptastic Day!  Candice

Managers Reception

I just got back from Leadership in Nashville TN.  It was so much fun.  This year I was able to attend my first ever Manager’s Reception.  It’s a special party for those who have earned the Manager’s title.  I was looking at the Stampin’ Up! website this morning and noticed that our picture was on it so I just had to share.

Starting from left to right is my Up-line Brandi Barnard, then Kristi, my other up-line Amy Johnson, Melanie, Me the Ashley and Wendy.  They took us to the Wild Horse Saloon.  The food was fabulous as well as the entertainment.  Plus the gave us all these fun hats and a new stamp set.

I have lots of fun ideas that I’m looking forward to sharing with you.  Thanks to everyone who helped me get here.

I’m so excited I had to share!

I’m super excited and just had to share my good news with you.

Stampin’ Up! was having a contest to help us get inspired to earn the Disney World trip this year.  So they decided to have a Disney contest.  All you had to do was create something Disney and then post it on our group website Stampin’ Connection, which is like a facebook for Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators only.

Of course I just had to enter and today I found out that I won.  There were over 250 entries and I was picked as one of the five winners.  I also got a free stamp set of my choice so I’ve been walking on air all day.

Anyway I thought I would share with you the 5 projects that I entered.

This is my fun Disney sign to keep me inspired.  All of the fun characters are made with punches.

I had a friend request for me to make a Donald Duck out of punches so I thought the contest was the perfect opportunity.

This one is a little different.  It’s a giant Genie that I have on my back door.  He’s holding our dream board.  I drew him, but I colored him with the Stampin’ Up! water-color pencils.  Oh and yes I do know that I spelled command wrong.  I just through it in the picture on Photo shop and didn’t notice till later.  It will be correct when I add it to the door.

You’ve probably seen this one before it was a page that I entered in my first Artisan Award Contest.

Last is the winning card.  This is my Goofy card which you’ve probably seen before.  His all made with punches.  I actually made him for a swap a few years back.

Thanks for sharing my excitement with me.  I hope you enjoyed my projects.

Remember that there’s still plenty of time to join me and earn the Disney trip together.  Plus there is the Totally-Awesome tote that you get for free when you sign up before 18th.  Contact me today for more information.  435-245-5321

PS-
I was thinking that I would give away 5 of these fun cards. To win all you have to do is help me get to 50 fans on my “Stampin With Candice page” on Facebook.  All you have to do is go to my page by clicking on the link and select like, then invite your friends to like my page too.  Then leave me a comment. I will choose 5 winners when I get to 50 fans and I’ll mail them out to you. Thanks so much for your support and for helping me to spread the word.

Check out my Rag Bag

I talked a little bit about using the Big Shot for quilting and sewing when I got back from Leadership in January, however since I’m not that great at sewing I haven’t been able to peruse it much further.  In April I was able to attend a meeting held by my up-line Amy Johnson and was finally able to learn how to make one of these awesome Rag Bags.  Can I just say it was way easier that I thought it was going to be.

So here’s me sewing my bag.  It was so easy to cut out.  I just cut the fabric in strips and then I was able to cut out 8 scallop squares at once.  I loved it.  We also made this awesome flower to go on the back.  I was surprised at how easy it was and that I was able to do it thanks to the help of my awesome Stampin’ friends.

Then here’s the finished project.  It’s awesome because you can make the bag any size that you want.  You can totally customize it for your needs.

They have also been making quilts, hair bows, clothing and more.  You really need to check out all the things you can do with our fabulous Big Shot.

So now I’m excited to share this with you.  I’m going to be having a

Workshop of a Lifetime Challenge

Hey everyone I’m trying to win a contest at Stampin’ Up!  It’s the chance to have Shelli Gardner the Co-Founder of Stampin’ Up! come and do a workshop for me.  I will also be able to have a Down-line meeting that day.

So I’m sure you are wondering how you could help.  Well there are two ways.  First if you have ever thought about joining my team and being able to offer our wonderful product to your family and friends now is the time.  Not only would it help me out, but during Sale-a-brations you can get an awesome deal.  You will save 15% on the starter kit, plus you also get the stamp set of your choice for free.  That’s in addition to all the great training that I offer my group.  The best part is when you sign up this month you will still have 2 full months of Sale-a-bration to start earning money and free stamp sets.  If you want to learn more please feel free to contact me.  I’d love to answer your questions.

They only trick is I need you to sign up before the end of this month for it to qualify for the contest.  It’s really easy all you need to do is go to my website www.candiceanderson.stampinup.net and click on the join now button.  It will walk you through everything else that you need.  You can change the items in your kit or keep them the same it’s up to you.  You will need a password which is Candice I know nice and simple.  Thanks again for helping me out and I look forward to having you on my team.

So I said there were two ways you could help me out.  The second is by placing an order.  The contest is based on the number of new people who join my first level however if there is a tie they will look at the total number of sales, so any orders can really help me out.  Right now is a great time to place an order.  We have a bran new mini catalog out and of course it’s Sale-a-bration time.  That means you get free stamp sets for every $50.00 you spend.  You can place and order on-line at the site above just click shop now or you can e-mail me an order to andersoncandice@hotmail.com.  You can also call me anytime at 435-245-5321 or 435-232-2655 Cell & messages.  Remember I need to close the orders by January 31st so please get them to me asap.  Thanks again for your help.

So there is one last thing.  Sale-a-brations is also a great time to have a party.  I have several dates available.  You can check them out on my website.  I have a little incentive for you to book your party this month.  First anyone who books a party this month for February or March will be able to come to my special class for FREE to make this cute Spring sign.  Next for every $300.00 in party sales you will receive a free sale-a-bration set.  Last if I am one of the winners for the Workshop of a Lifetime Challenge it just may be one of you who get to have Shelli Gardner as your Demonstrator.  Or you may get the chance to come to the party.  (There are certain guildlines I have to follow for the party.)  So get those parties booked today.

Here is a picture of Shelli and I in Hawaii.  I’ve had that chance to meet her several times.  She is so awesome and down to earth.  She demonstrates at Convention and Leadership and is so fun to watch.  This really would be an awesome treat.  Thanks again for your help and I will talk to you all soon.
