EXTRA, EXTRA, Read all about it!

Oh my goodness, I'm 4 days late!  I feel like the Mad Hatter, running around so excited.  "I'm late, I'm late, for a very important date!"  The new Autumn/Winter 2011 Idea Book is live online!  There are soooo many goodies I don't know where to start.

This is just the tip of the iceberg people!

    Get a load of the Stamp of the Month for August  ... what do you think?  Awesome, right?  This should be enough to get you ready to book a gathering with me.  What if I told you that you could get $40 in free product plus select any one item in the IB for 50% off?  All that for as little as $250 in sales, yes that does include your order!

The kids are starting back to school, and I know some of you have pictures you want to share from your vacation and/or staycation.  Invite a couple of friends over to join us for some fun and I guarantee I'll make them laugh ... (that's good medicine you know) ... and find your creative side.  It's just that easy. 

You'll walk away with a completed project and ideas for some handmade gifts for family, friends, teachers, and those special people in your life.  And an extra special gift, just for you, for hosting the party!

Hurry, let's get it on the calendar soon. 

July 31 is HERE

Place your order now, there are only a few more shopping days left in the Spring/Summer 2011 Idea Book (US).  (Click the link to see the book online.)  Make sure you get your order in soon so you don't miss out on the July "Bang for your Buck" special.  Spend $50 and add an item for $1 from selected product.

Don't forget to add the fabulous July Stamp of the Month (SOM) "American Celebration" to your order.  Artwork pictured was created with this stamp.

My First Post

Hello and welcome to my maiden voyage into the blogging arena!  It is my hope that through my journey I can help you discover your creativity.  Along this path, we can celebrate relationships and preserve the moments that matter most.

I am an Independent Consultant for Close To My Heart products.  Our company's founder and CEO, Jeanette Lynton, is legendary in the stamping, scrapbooking, and paper crafting industry.  Take a look at her blog it's simply amazing.

I have big, big, news for everyone.  A new Idea Book is on the horizon from Close To My Heart (CTMH) and will debut August 1st.  If you have not seen an Idea Book or do not know about it, let me explain, it is our catalog that is brimming with  images of our products.  The IB (Idea Book)  is full of beautiful artwork and techniques all in a format that will inspire you to create. 

If you have been visiting other consultant's blogs, you have heard, maybe even seen, some sneak previews about what's coming.  We all know that in order to make room for the new stuff we have to clear out some space ... so you guessed it, some items will be retiring from the previous Idea Book(s).

Stay tuned, I'm still under construction so visit often and soon.  More posts will be following today and tomorrow.
