Hello, Hola, Bonjour, Hallo, Caio!

I'm drafting this newsletter at 33000 feet on the first of the three flights as we journey back to New Zealand.

I'll send it off as soon as I have access to my newsletter provider - probably Tuesday afternoon/evening.

I had intended to be in contact with you by Newsletter again while I was away - unfortunately time and access made that rather difficult.

I could access Facebook however and I do hope you've enjoyed following the story of our travels. As I posted these publicly on my personal page (www.facebook.com/jaxandroy) anyone of you with Facebook should be able to view them. Feel free to check them out if you would like to see where we've been and what we've been up to.

As I said a fortnight ago, we spent an amazing week aboard the Norwegian Epic Cruise Line having earned my first ever Incentive Trip from Stampin' Up! It was definitely a lot of hard work to earn it and as I have said before, I could not have achieved it without the support of many people - my family, my team of demonstrators, Stampin' Up! and you - Thank You!

We then had two weeks in Europe - more amazing places and experiences and people! In Austria we caught up with family, in Paris a high school friend and in Barcelona a past work colleague from England who I worked with in Canada 28 years ago! It truly is a small world.

It's hard to choose a favourite moment form the trip ... but ...

in celebration of our 30th anniversary, Roy and I had arranged to renew our wedding vows to each other while we were in Paris. The inclement weather held for us that day and we had a truly special and memorable afternoon.

Very Special indeed!

... and that special moment would never have been possible if I hadn't earned the Incentive Trip - aka Grand Vacation - so thanks again!

Every year, Stampin' Up! rewards achieving demonstrators from all markets with an exciting, all-expense-paid trip for two. From exotic resorts to relaxing cruises, the Stampin' Up! incentive trip is filled with luxury, entertainment, and fun! I'm now working hard to earn the next Incentive Trip - which is to Thailand in July next year. Demonstrators throughout the world have until the end of September to reach the required goals so I still have nearly 4 months to get there.

In this newsletter you'll find information about the following

June Promotions from Stampin' Up!

2016 - 2017 Annual Stampin' Up! Catalogue

As I'm sure you are aware - the 2016/2017 Annual Stampin' Up! catalogue went live on Tuesday 1st June. Some of you called and collected your copy before I left for Barcelona - I hope you are enjoying drawling - oh I mean looking - at all the new goodies! I've shopped already - but my wish list is still very long!

I know many of you won't have a hard copy yet. Getting them to you is the first thing on my list when I get home - well maybe having a sleep is first! So I'll be preparing for my Friday catalogue launches where you can get your own copy.n Friday (see the next section for more info).

If you can't make it to a launch on Friday you are welcome to call past and collect your copy (text first 027 348 3901) or I will post one out to you.

Please let me know if you need your copy posted so that I can get it into the mail to you.

2016 - 2017 Annual Catalogue Launch

I am really looking forward to having my

2016-2017 Annual Catalogue Launch Parties

Friday 17th June, 1.00pm - 3.00pm

Friday 17th June, 7.00pm - 9.00pm

Sharing the new catalogue is one of my favourite activities of the year - I love a party! And the new catty is a great reason to celebrate, craft together and have some fun - so come along and explore brand new products from the catalogue!

I'll have lots of new product to show you, you'll get to play with some new goodies in the make'n'takes, there will be a goodie bag for everyone who attends and some prize draws too!

No cost! Everyone takes away a new 2016-2017 Annual Catalogue plus two fun, stamped projects.

I have done free shipping at my catalogue launches in the past - but this time I want to reward you with more goodies instead!

So ...

All orders placed online before the Launch Party and at the Launch Parties themselves will be eligible for the free product.

Place your order at the Annual Catalogue Launch Party and you'll get to choose 10% of the product value of your order in additional product on the day.

If you order online before the party - you will also be able to choose 10% of your product value in extra products. In this case email me to arrange.

If 10% of your order is not enough to purchase product - I will give you product I have on hand.

Remember - be in to win spot prizes and one of two major prize draws for new products from the 2016-2017 Annual Catalogue.

You can enter the draw multiple times - by RSVPing, attending the launch party and placing an order.

Email me to say you are coming by 5pm Thursday 16th, and your RSVP will place your first entry into the major prize draw.

At the catalogue launch I will also be holding a BOGO sale.

BOGO means - buy one get one.

You choose items you wish to purchase from my collection of retired items and I'll give you that value as credit towards any current product!

Yes - that's two for the price of one.

You simply pay for the retired products and just the shipping on the current product.

If you can't make it to the launch but would like to order you can do that online or by emailing me by Saturday.

Stampin' Up! June Promotion - No.1

During June, Stampin' Up! is running two great promotions.

Firstly - it is a fantastic month to earn extra Stampin' Rewards.

If you host a party (this could be at your place or mine) and have sales of at least $550 you will earn an extra $60 in Stampin' Rewards. I have limited dates available for parties so contact me asap if you're interested in hosting a party.

You can also earn these Stampin' Rewards if you simply have an order of at least $550 - no party needed.

However if your order is this amount, then purchasing the Starter Kit is likely to be a better option for you. I'd be happy to talk to you about optimising your purchases

Email me for more information

Stampin' Up! June Promotion - No.2

The other fantastic promotion that Stampin' Up! Is running in June relates to the Starter Kit.

If you remember the sign-up promotion during Sale-A-Bration was awesome - the best I had ever seen since becoming a demo - well this June's promotion is just as good - maybe even better!

Everyone that purchases the starter Kit in June at its regular price of $189 will not only get the usual $285 worth of product, some catalogues and other business supplies - all postage free - you will also be able to choose two additional stamp sets with a combined maximum retail value of $214!

Of course the extra value depends on which stamp sets you choose - but that means you could get up to $499 worth of product for $185 - and it's postage free saving another $25! WOW!

I know it sounds too good to be true - but there really are no catches!

You choose the products you want in the Starter Kit and you will have access to a 20% discount on future purchases until at least the end of December if you wish to keeping shopping.

You don't ever have to sell to anyone else or hold a class/workshop if you do not want to. You can't sell any other similar products during this time - only Stampin' Up!.

Then you choose what happens after that - whether you continue as a discount shopper, or maybe sell Stampin' Up! to a friend or two, or perhaps hold a class or workshop, or you can do none of those and your membership will lapse. It really is as simple as that!

You'll also have access to a wide range of resources - including being part of the thINK creative Team and the ability to attend amazing demo-only events. You can stay a discount shopper for as long or as short a time as you wish.

If you have around $200 of product on your wish list - buying the Starter Kit REALLY is likely to be your best option.

Signing up doesn't change your ability to attend my classes and customer events - you just get to attend the demo only ones too!

Remember - if you purchase the Starter Kit from one of the other wonderful demos in my team you join team thINK Creative too! I'd love to have you in the team and am keen to support my team members to meet their aspirations too. Talk to me, and/or one of them, about your options.

Celebrate the New Catty Online - the Mediterranean Way

I had intended to run an Online Facebook Event to celebrate the launch of the new catalogue while I was in Paris ...

... I packed my Selphy printer, some Project Life cards and pockets and a few other crafty things with me as I had ambitions of running a live event showcasing Project Life - doing some pages of our trip while we were there. I even had my paper snips impounded as I went through Sydney - though their measurement was less than the length stipulated as acceptable!

... that online party didn't eventuate for several reasons - and I must say that as we were packing to come home I sure could have used the weight from those items I had taken over in my luggage!

Ah well - I do love trying new things - but not all my ideas work out!

But I had made a commitment to hold an Online event as part of my June goals - so I'm going ahead. A different timeframe and content than originally intended - but still a fun-filled Online Facebook Party.

I was also keen to show you some of the wonderful items and products Stampin' Up! gave us on the trip. While on the Norwegian Epic there were daily prizes from the "Lucky Wheel" in the Hospitality Room, evening treasures as "pillow gifts", as well as other gifts such as bags and clothing and of course "prize patrol". (see why I could have used that weight!)

Hence the "Celebrate the New Catalogue the Mediterranean Way"!

The Party will run over 7 days - the same length as the Incentive Trip.

12 noon Sunday 19th June til 9pm Saturday 25th June

On each day of the party I'll focus on that day of the Trip. I'll share a little of the place(s) we visited and the gifts we received and show you something made with the product.
