Welcome!
I’m Simone Bartrum – papercrafting teacher and Stampin’ Up! demonstrator in Australia, and team leader of the EurekaStampers.
Over the past 18 years, I’ve had the honour of welcoming papercrafters from all over Australia to my Stampin’ Up! team. You might be here because you’ve been thinking about joining too.
Maybe you’re curious, and want to learn how to go about joining Stampin’ Up!.
Maybe you’re wondering what are the benefits of joining… or what the “catch” is!
Or maybe you’re seriously considering joining and just want all the facts.
Whatever brought you here – you’re in the right place.
I’ve noticed there are five big questions everyone asks, so let’s go through them.
1. What do I actually get when I join?
Great news! The joining process has just had a makeover, and it’s now simpler (and more flexible) than ever.
Here’s how it works. You pay a one-off joining fee of $175, and you’ll receive the Get Started Bundle, which includes:
- a coupon code worth $240 to spend on whatever you like, and
- eight catalogues, absolutely free, to keep or share.
From then on you’ll have access to all the other benefits and privileges of being part of Stampin’ Up! (Yes, including an awesome discount on all future purchases that starts at 20%!).
So what can I spend my $240 coupon on?
Anything! As long as it’s a current product, you can add it. Want stamps and ink? Add them to your cart. Want the foiling system or a stack of punches? Go for it!
Here’s the part I love: unlike the old starter kit, there’s no fiddly value limit to plan around. Your order can be as big as you like – the coupon code simply takes $240 off the total, and anything you spend above that gets your 20% demonstrator discount straight away. It even counts towards your first quarterly minimum (more on that below) and can earn you Stampin’ Rewards if your order is big enough. And everything you order is yours to keep, no matter what you do with your demonstratorship.
A few things worth knowing:
- Your coupon code is valid for 12 months, so there’s no pressure to spend it all at once (although I suspect you’ll want to!).
- Your eight free catalogues can be added to any order – you’ll simply be prompted at checkout. This offer lasts for nine months after you join.
- Standard postage applies to your orders, just like any demonstrator order.
- The joining payment needs to be made in your own name, and Stampin’ Rewards can’t be used towards joining.
How do I actually sign up?
It takes just a few minutes: choose me as your team leader, accept the agreements, enter your details, pay your $175 and click submit. Once your details are approved (usually very quickly), you’ll receive an email with your demonstrator ID and your coupon code – and then the fun begins. Sign in, fill your cart and start shopping!
Oh, and one more thing… if this is your first time joining Stampin’ Up!, keep an eye on your letterbox. There’s a little surprise on its way to welcome you. My lips are sealed – you’ll just have to join to find out!
2. What are the benefits of joining Stampin’ Up!?
There are so many reasons to love being a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator:
- Beautiful, award-winning products recognised by Creating Keepsakes Readers’ Choice Awards.
- Exclusive designs you can’t buy in retails shops.
- Great discounts (20–38%).
- Generous rewards like product bonuses, pre-order perks, and even Incentive Trips (less than 1% earn them each year, but they’re achievable with a lot of work – I’ve been blessed to earn 13 trips since joining in 2007. Note: The achievements listed here are not representative of typical Stampin’ Up! demonstrators).
- Ongoing support including training, resources, and a weekly “Succeed Weekly” email.
- Private global Facebook community where demonstrators share ideas and inspiration.
- And of course, you’ll get at least 20% off everything, always.
- Plus, being part of my team of Eurekastampers (Stampin’ Up! demonstrators in Australia) you’ll get a stack of other perks including a 50+ page tutorial bundle each month, shared in our very own team Facebook group… and you’ll get access to all the back issues too!
And of course, you’ll get at least 20% off everything, always.
3. Do I have to ‘demonstrate’?
No, not at all.
The word “demonstrator” just means you’re part of the Stampin’ Up! family. You don’t have to hold classes or sell products if that’s not your thing.
Many people join simply for the discount and creative fun – others discover along the way that they enjoy sharing projects or teaching classes.
The products are so beautiful that they often sell themselves! And if you ever want to turn your hobby into a little business, I’ll be here to guide and support you.
4. What are the sales minimums?
To stay active and keep your discount, you’ll need to meet a quarterly minimum of 300 CSV (Commissionable Sales Volume).
Stampin’ Up! quarters are:
- October to December
- January to March
- April to June
- July to September
You don’t have to meet this minimum in your joining quarter, and if you fall short later, you’ll get a one-month grace period.
If you decide not to continue, there’s no penalty – you simply lose your discount access. Easy as that.
So, why do we need CSV?
CSV is kind of like Stampin’ Up!’s universal unit of currency. It allows demonstrators across many different countries to work with the same numbers, regardless of local money. Instead of talking about Aussie dollars here in Australia or euros in Germany, we all use CSV – it keeps things simple, fair, and consistent for everyone.
In practical terms, for those of us in Australia, the quarterly minimum of 300 CSV works out to about AUD $470 in retail value. And remember, you’ll be saving at least 20% on that amount thanks to your demonstrator discount.
It’s a very achievable target – with a few regular customers (or even just your own crafting orders), most people find it easy to reach.
What happens if I can’t meet the quarterly minimums?
You’ll get an extra month to give you a little more time, and then after that you’ll simply stop getting access to the demonstrator website, which means you’ll no longer be able to get the discount. Don’t worry, you don’t have to give anything back or do any paperwork. It’s very simple. And if your circumstances change then you’ll be most welcome to join again.
5. Why should I join your team?
Choosing the right person to join Stampin’ Up! with really matters. This is the person who supports you, answers questions, and helps you make the most of your demonstratorship.
By joining my EurekaStampers team, you’ll become part of a positive, creative, and caring community where we share, learn, and grow together.
You’ll enjoy:
- A warm welcome into our team group
- Access to our private Facebook page and online resources
- Invitations to fun stamping days and team events
- Monthly IDEAS tutorial bundles (minimum 50+ page document each month)
- Monthly online zoom meetings, so you can stay connected (if you want) no matter where you live in Australia
- Ongoing support, quick replies, and genuine guidance
I’ve been recognised by Stampin’ Up! for sales, recruiting, and leadership, and I’ve supported many team members who’ve gone on to earn Incentive Trips and national awards. But what I love most is seeing people gain confidence, joy, and friendships through crafting.

Your journey, your way
A great feature of Stampin’ Up! is that there’s no one ‘right’ way to be a demonstrator. You get to make it whatever you want it to be. Which one sounds most like you?.
- The Happy Shopper: Joins purely for the discount and the perks. Shops online for their own stash (with maybe the odd order for friends and family), enjoys being part of the community, and has zero plans to sell anything. This is a perfectly wonderful way to be a demonstrator!
- The Wishlist Joiner: Joins when a big product release catches their eye – hello, new foiling system! – to grab everything they want at the best possible price, and stays for as long as it suits them.
- The Casual Sharer: Makes cards for the love of it and shares them on Facebook or Instagram. Friends and followers ask “where can I get that?” – and orders come through their online store without it ever feeling like ‘selling’.
- The Hobby Business Demonstrator: Earns a little extra money when it’s convenient – running occasional classes (in person or online), sharing project kits, or doing markets and craft fairs. Busy some months, quiet others, and that’s just fine.
- The Career Demonstrator: Treats Stampin’ Up! as a genuine business with long-term potential – building an audience online and in person, running regular classes and events, and growing a team. Works at it consistently and loves every minute. Income is not guaranteed, and is dependent on a number of factors including the time and effort you put in to your business.
Joining for the hobby
You’re very welcome to join purely to save money on your craft purchases. Or you might enjoy exploring what’s possible if you decide to share creativity with others in a small, flexible way.

No matter your path, you’ll be part of something wonderful – a supportive, global company with experience and heart.
By choosing me as your upline, you’ll be joining someone with more than 18 years of experience, a long-term commitment to the company, and a genuine passion for supporting her team.
