Stampin' Up just brightened my day!

I was feeling kind of down today as things are a bit "stressyitus" at my day job on Wall Street. But then one of my sideline demonstrators Cynthia Delgado sent me this email with Stampin' Up!'s principles. It instantly made me feel better to know that I am affiliated with a company that takes all of these things to heart.

Stampin’ Up! Principles

Integrity
We build our businesses through trust, fairness, and kindness with the thought that people are more important than products. We encourage everyone to give their best effort every day, to provide positive support to those around them, and to exercise creativity in performing their tasks.

Relationships
We expect open, honest, and friendly communication between everyone. We appreciate and encourage diversity, knowing there is much we can learn from each other.


Balance
We are dedicated to those who strive to create balanced lifestyles centered on serving family and others while nurturing their own self-esteem and personal growth.


Personal Development
We provide opportunities for those who wish to develop their artistic creativity, expand their social interaction, and contribute to their family’s -financial security—while having fun. We believe that when we nurture personal and professional development in people, success will follow.


Positive Environment
We seek to oer fair compensation and benefits; ample training and educational opportunities; and an opportunity for everyone to share ideas with the company.


Growth
We are dedicated to healthy and responsible growth. We measure our growth and performance subjectively by focusing on principles and objectively by focusing on numbers. We seek to expand our influence in the craft, hobby, and decorating markets as we provide affordable, high quality products that stimulate creativity and enjoyment.


Efficiency
We evaluate our operations capabilities to ensure productivity and continued support of our workforce. We understand that the client processes and structure encourage consistency and foster confidence; therefore, we strive to develop the best systems for giving the best support possible.

Change
We believe in exercising imagination and wisdom, in taking responsible risk, and in embracing change. We set challenging goals, always striving to "better our best."
