2013 - New Year

2013 - A New Year
I hope everyone had a marvelous Christmas and holiday time.  Family and friends made my Christmas special and memorable.  The scrapbooking supplies have not made their way out of the cupboards yet, but they are pounding on the doors to be let out.  Soon!  Then I will be fresh and ready to create for another year.  I am sure looking forward to seeing all of you again.
The new Idea Book has been made available for consultants to view and I am excited to share all the new products with you.  You will be able to order from the new book February 1st.  However, I will make an effort to get a new book to you in January, so you too can drool over it and make your lists.
Once again I am mulling over an idea to have a Monthly Hostess Club to make specialty cards or layouts.  (There will be more information coming in January).  Any suggestions are welcomed.  Each month a different hostess earns the CTMH credits.  These clubs are a fun way to get free product.
Happy New Year Everyone

November Christmas Card Workshop

I apologize for being tardy updating my blog, however I have been down with a nasty flu and just feeling  better today.

The October Christmas card workshop was a hit and we had a lot of laughs, fun and good fellowship.  Thank you ladies.

Here are the cards I have designed for the November 16th and 18th workshop.  Make 12 cards, all supplies and envelopes included.  Note the swing card is cut on my Cricut using CTMH's newest Artiste cartridge.  Card 5 is a clear card and one each of two shapes.

If you would like to join us and need more information, please contact me.

October Cards

I am being Momnapped next week to go on a special vacation with my wonderful children.  I have no idea where I am off to, but I know it will be fun and filled with precious moments to cherish.  I am feeling very spoiled and we haven't even gone yet!  How could anyone top this or my kids.  They are the best!

So, because of this surprise trip, I have planned my next card class for Sunday, October 28th at 1:00 p.m.
This will be an early Christmas card class to get a head start, as Christmas seems to creep up faster every year.   You will make 12 cards, 2 of each design, and all supplies and envelopes are included.

If you want to be ready for Christmas and get your cards out early, contact me sooner rather than later to reserve your spot, as space fills up quickly.

CTMH Open House Display and Autumn/Winter 2012 Idea Book Reveal

These are the display boards I prepared for my CTMH Open House today.  I used the Scholastic WOTG and look at all I made with one kit, adding a few embellishments and the Kraft Die Cut Card package:  two 2-page layouts, Kraft Die Cut Mini-Album, 7 Kraft cards 6" x 6", plus two regular sized cards and still B & T (Background and Texture) paper left over to make a few more cards or another layout!
