My name is Jini Merck and I'm a Stampin' Up! Independent Demonstrator. I love being a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator, not only do I get to be creative every day, I also get to be a creative coach, offering fresh project ideas and encouragement to my customers and friends.
For me, helping someone create that perfect project for a special occasion is the best feeling in the entire world. After all, creating cards, scrapbook pages, and gift items is about more than just stamps and ink—it’s about sharing a part of yourself with the people in your life.
I live in Clarkesville which is in the North Georgia Mountains with my husband and two children. Although my family keeps me busy I enjoy the creativity of stamping and crafts and the fellowship stamping brings into my life. Spending time creativing cards and gifts for friends and family has been one of my favorite hobbies over the years.
Remember the “Pick a Kit” survey from the Stampin’ Up! facebook page in October? Well Stampin’ Up! has responded to your “likes” and Fancy Friends Kit was the winner hands down!
Why not get your Fancy Friends Kit (item # 132319)? You’ll get everything you need to make six cards for only $15.95. If six isn’t enough, add Note Cards (item #107311) to your order – there are extra rhinestones already included in the Fancy Friends Kit.

An extra-wide 6-1/4″ cutting base and an extended 14-1/2″ ruler
The extra-wide cutting base provides a large work area and is marked in 1/4″ (4 mm) increments, allowing for small measurements.
The right-side grid helps you measure and cut very thin strips.
The extended cutting arm has a stabilizing leg to provide a sturdy and steady cutting surface for longer cuts.
When fully extended, the extended cutting arm sits flush with the trimmer base, providing more accurate and consistent measurements across the entire surface.
The cutting base and track include a full ruler, incorporating measurements down to 1/16″ and grid lines that mark each quarter inch.
All rulers and measurements on the base are printed under a plastic cover so your measurements won’t wear off.
The base has nonskid feet, which keeps the Stampin’ Trimmer securely in place on your work area.
A full 12″ cutting and scoring track
The extra-long cutting track has space at the top and bottom so you don’t have to take the cutting and scoring blades out when you’re not using them.
The track gives you enough space to cut or score a full 12″ (30.5 cm) without having to remove or switch out handles.
The cutting track locks in place for secure storage or transport.
The track includes an insertion point for cutting and scoring blade handles so you can easily insert handles into the cutting track.
Specially designed handles and cutting track to ensure straight cuts
The hook on the scoring and cutting blade handles keeps the handles stable so the cuts are as straight as possible.
Handles come in two colors: dark for cutting, light for scoring.
The precision tip on the cutting blade allows you to pinpoint precisely where you’re cutting.
The point on the side of each handle shows you where the blade will cut, making it easy to see exactly where your cuts and scores will begin.
Storage compartment under base
The storage compartment holds scoring and cutting tools such as a Bone Folder, Simply Scored Stylus, extra scoring and cutting blades, and even business cards.
Separate compartments within the storage compartment keep your tools organized, and the clear cover makes it easy to see what you’ve stored.
item 126889; $29.95

Stampin’ Up! introduced Single Stamps on October 1st and turns out you’ve loved them – So….they’ve introduced two NEW assortments today! Here is a chance to buy single pieces from 3 stamp sets instead of the whole set along with some NEW neverbefore seen images! The offer is good until January 2nd, 2013.
Why not check them out today and find your favorites.
Didn’t get a chance to check out the 3 stamp sets that were offered as singles on October 1st? Why not check them out now?
Here are the details:
These stamps are available on any order type-customer, workshop, or online.
You can find the stamp item numbers on the flyers.
These won’t be sent to you in our typical cases or packaging; they’ll be packaged in cello bags. If you’d like a case for your stamp, you can buy our Clear-Mount Stamp Cases that come in packs of four (item 119105).
This offer is available for clear-mount stamps only.
The stamps won’t come with a Clear-Mount Block, and you’ll need to buy a block separately if you don’t already have one. The recommended block sizes can be found on the flyers.
There’s no limit on how many pieces you can buy.
Remember that this is a pilot program, so take advantage of it while you can!
Click on the Stamp Set below to see the PDF flyer to see items available.
