Great blog by the way!<br /><br />To HWQueen: When I started stamping 13 years ago the only SU sale was the once-yearly "Sellabration" (now Sale-a-Bration). SU never put their products on sale, but now there is a price reduction or promo every month! Even when there were no sales, I could see the tremendous value in buying sets of quality stamps in a nice protective case, and I'm pretty frugal! The stamps work out to be 2 or 3 dollars each, and include the wood blocks! Now there are clear mounts that cost even less (but I love my wood mounts)! I'm not a demo, just love SU for all the coordinating products and ideas that make the most of my limited crafting time. If you like doing the challenges, use your SU stuff here and certainly keep using all the other products you enjoy! :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6570020638583005934.post-80772862441592506302011-04-09T00:24:21.538-04:002011-04-09T00:24:21.538-04:00Sorry to hear that you are making those of us who ...Sorry to hear that you are making those of us who are not SU demonstrators use only SU products.

I do agree with Pam, why unsubscribe, even as demonstrators we may not have exactly what is shown in a design, you either shop for that specific item or change it out to something else.

Your generosity in sharing all the details of your projects in such a fun way makes you so deserving of all the rewards you wonderful demonstrators receive from SU! I became a SU customer in the late 1990's and never looked back, and still don't have it all so also just substitute colors and products I have.

Pros: A...I have mixed feelings, and one question. <br /><br />Pros: As a SU demo, it will be great to see ideas I can easily duplicate, (when I run out of my own, lol)<br /><br />Cons: For many reasons, including the fact that my SU stash is far from complete, the fact that I love to visit my local craft stores, and am often inspired by what I see, and the fact that I still have a HUGE stash of non-SU supplies, I feel really inhibited when I have no option to mix things up (ie. my Workshops, etc.)<br /><br />Question: I don't understand why this would be forced upon them? My understanding, from reading the agreement, was that in our online world, we're allowed to use other products, but we're not allowed to promote them, by saying what they are, or where to find them. That's how I've been running my blog, and even my personal Facebook posts. On my blog, I'll list all of the SU products used, and not mention the other stuff at all. Is this wrong?Anjiihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08072700309318463719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6570020638583005934.post-91679322969023912612011-04-07T02:49:47.034-04:002011-04-07T02:49:47.034-04:00I'm with the majority, I'm a SU demonstrat...I'm with the majority, I'm a SU demonstrator and I love all the ideas that you talented ladies have.
