Well it's week two of the Stampin Up Demonstrator interviews and this week I contacted one of our lovely ladies in the South Island, Lisa Bullock from Canterbury!
Lisa has passed on some of her skills with answering some questions for me, below is her interview...
Interview with Lisa Bullock
1. How long have you been a
Stampin Up Demonstrator?
Since May 2009
2. What made you decided to
become one?
I wanted to make
my hobby work for me so I started selling the products I love so they could
PAY for the ones I wanted
3. What makes Stampin Up
product different from others?
Great
quality stamps, you don't appreciate them fully until you use a non SU stamp
and see the difference. I love the colour coordination of the products too,
Cardstock, inkpads, markers plus ribbon, buttons and all the other lovelies.
4. What is your Favourite,
wouldn't be without Stampin Up Product new or past?
Anyone who knows
me knows I love my punches - ALL of them. They are such a versatile product and
can be put together to make new pictures too
5. What was your favourite
class and why?
My favourite
classes are kids ones. You can guarantee that even when you give the children
all the same supplies that not one of them will come out with a card the same
as yours. They don't seem to have the same need to follow the "rules"
as adults do when creating.
6. If you got asked to take 7
things along to a blind demonstration what would you take and why?
Whisper White A5
folded into Cardbases (back to basics, you can show lots of different ways to
do one layer cards), Coordinating ink pads, Post it notes (for sponging or
creating a frame), Stampin' Sponges (lots of fun effects there), A stamp set
like the new Wetlands one because it has useful sentiments and images, Stazon
ink pad (waterproof!! great for line images and sentiments ), Aquapainter
(another way to colour line images). These are all good basic products which
you can do lots with.
7. What is your best Stampin
Up tip?
Play!
Experiment, think outside the box. Not only will you become really familiar
with your product but you will discover lots of different ways to use it and be
able to share that with your friends and customers. People love to get more
bang for their buck so show them how to get the most from their products.
8. What is your favourite
technique?
I'm not big on
Techniques but I do like to learn new ones. The last one was Whitewash Effect
where you use slightly watered down Whisper White Craft ink to "white
wash" colour onto a White embossed line image. Allow to dry thoroughly
then use watercolour pencils or markers to colour it in. I do love sponged
effects too.
9. Lastly what was your
funniest Stampin Up moment you can remember.
Funniest Moment!
No this is serious business. I always have a lot of fun with my ladies and I
have met some fabulous people through Stampin' Up! which I would never have met
otherwise but no "one" funny moment comes to mind
