What to expect on a Stampin Up workshop?
Stampin’Up! workshop
A Stampin’ Up! workshop is an event where participants gather to learn and create various paper crafting projects using Stampin’ Up! products.
Here’s what you can generally expect at a Stampin’ Up! workshop:
Demonstrations
The workshop will typically start with a demonstrator (me!) showcasing different techniques, products, and project ideas. They will provide step-by-step instructions and tips on how to create beautiful handmade cards, scrapbook pages, and other paper crafts.
Hands-on Projects
Participants will have the opportunity to create their own projects during the workshop. The projects may include making greeting cards, gift tags, bookmarks, scrapbook layouts, or home decor items. The workshop will provide all the necessary supplies, including stamps, ink, paper, and embellishments.
Product Showcasing
The demonstrator will highlight the latest Stampin’ Up! products, showcasing new stamp sets, dies, punches, designer series paper, and other crafting supplies. You’ll have the chance to see and experiment with these products, allowing you to make informed decisions about your future purchases.
Tips and Techniques
The demonstrator will share useful tips, tricks, and techniques to enhance your paper crafting skills. They may teach you about various stamping techniques, colouring methods, using different tools, and incorporating different textures and layers into your projects.
Socializing and Networking
Stampin’ Up! workshops provide a social atmosphere where you can meet and connect with other crafters who share your passion for paper crafting. It’s a great opportunity to exchange ideas, learn from fellow enthusiasts, and make new friends.
Ordering Opportunities
Stampin’ Up! workshops often include opportunities to place orders for products showcased during the event. You’ll have the chance to purchase Stampin’ Up! supplies and take advantage of any special offers or promotions available exclusively at the workshop.
Inspirational Ideas
The workshop will provide plenty of inspiration for your future crafting projects. You’ll see various design styles, color combinations, and creative uses of Stampin’ Up! products that can spark your creativity and help you come up with your own unique creations.
Remember that the specific activities and format of a Stampin’ Up! workshop may vary depending on the demonstrator and the event’s theme or focus. However, the overall goal is to have fun, learn new techniques, and create beautiful handmade projects using Stampin’Up! products.
YOU decide how your workshop can be!
My favourite thing is to host a workshop that fits what you want to achieve. For example, if you would like to get an exclusive host stamp set and other products for free, then you will want to invite guests who are coming with the intent of ordering supplies. This is much like a Tupperware party. Based on the total amount of orders, you will get free host products. All guests at the workshop will make two or three projects that you can help me choose based on your tastes and ability.
If you only want a fun night out, we might order kits for you and all your guests. It is also possible to tailor make a set of cards to make and we agree on the price ahead of time. Usually I will offer the class for free if a guest decides to place an order of $50 or more.
