I'm having a great time at my first Leadership Conference. Here’s a pic of all my goodies. You gotta love free stuff especially when you can use it for stamping. I won the new Simply Scored Diagonal Plate during prize patrol. I can’t wait to try it out! The bags this year are the cutest thing ever and so is the matching portfolio with the tag that was signed by Shelli.
There were several announcements today. The most exciting is the new changes to the catalogues. The main catty will be thinner (208 pages), with lighter paper and cost demos ½ the price of the old ones. We will also be able to send them out now using the mail selector program. Mail selector will stay open for the entire selling period not just during preorder (yeah!)
The minis won’t be so mini anymore. They’ll still have about 40 pages but they’ll be 8½” x 11” and will still cost demos the same price as they do now. Starting this year, there won’t be a summer mini. The next catty will be the Annual Catalogue which starts June 1 so we’ll be able to preorder May 1. The Holiday Catty period will be Aug 1 to Dec 31 and the Spring Catty period will be from the beginning of January until May 31.
The other big announcement is that Stampin’ Up will be getting rid of a few of their product lines and focusing on paper crafting. The lines they told us about so far are Decor Elements and the Simply Sent jewellery. Well that’s it for tonight. Tune in again for more leadership news and some pics of all the awesome cards and projects on display.
Thank you, Jackie! I wasn't following any info until just a couple of days ago and your blog has concise, on-the-spot info! Thank you so much for sharing everything with us!
