Off to Portland!

Well I'm all packed and ready to head off to Portland, Oregon for the Close to My Heart Regional Celebration. I'm looking forward to learning some new things, seeing some great projects done with our products, and having lots of fun!

I'm anticipating coming back with lots of exciting things to tell about, so check out my blog over the next few weeks as I share my experiences & artwork!

I'll also see some of you at the card workshop next Friday, November 13th at 7:00 pm. Let me know if you'd like to come - I still have some open spots!

November Stamp of the Month

This month's Stamp of the Month is a very cute house set that I've seen make some very cute projects! Click here to see a cute project by Lisa Stenz using this set, and then follow the blog hop to see many more projects! I love how creative my fellow consultants are! I thought this set was cute the first time I saw it, but after following the blog hop I fell in love with it! You will too!

You'll Be Twitterpated!

Here is a glimpse of the cards we'll be making at the November Card Workshop! I am in love with this paper line and can't wait to do this workshop! The paper is called Twitterpated and just came out in the new Autumn/Winter Idea Book. At this workshop we'll be using the adorable Hedgehog & Toadstool (a.k.a. mushroom) stamp set that is only available in the workshop Kit. The Kit includes the Twitterpated Level 2 Paper Pack, the stamp set, and a collection of brown ribbon spools all for $29.95. Remember, if you purchase the Kit in advance it will be ready for you on workshop night and I will waive the $10 supply fee (since your supplies will be in your kit!). Ordering the kit is a great value, especially if you adore this paper line like I do, since you'll leave the workshop with 3 completed cards, a stamp set, ribbon and enough paper left in your paper pack to complete several more projects! Kits must be ordered by November 1st to arrive in time for the workshop on Friday, November 13th at 7pm. Hope to see you then!

Another Fun Card Workshop

We had another fun night of making cards at the last workshop. This card was my personal favorite from the 3 we made. It had great dimension to it and I loved the background paper. We did a lot of stamping and A LOT of cutting! (Sorry!) Everyone did great though!

The November card workshop will be held on the 2nd Friday of the month, November 13th at 7:00 pm. I'll be posting photos & information regarding the cards we will make and what is included in the kit. Kit orders will need to be received by November 1st so I can get them ordered and received in time for the workshop.

October Card Workshop!

I can't believe it is almost October! So let's get the month started off right with a great card workshop on Friday, October 2nd at 7:00 pm. The supply fee for the 3 cards is $10. We'll be using the new CTMH paper line called "Sweet Home" which you can find on page 14 of the Autumn/Winter Idea Book.

Pictured above you'll find the Sweet Home Basic Kit which includes the exclusive "Enjoy the Journey" stamp set, available only in this kit, along with the Level 2 paper packet and a White Daisy embellishment collection all for $29.95 (+ tax & S/H). If you are interested in ordering the Sweet Home kit let me know right away so I can have it ordered & ready for you when you arrive for the workshop. Remember, if you order the kit then you won't pay the $10 supply fee since your supplies will be in the kit!

Hope to see everyone on October 2nd!!!

Sweet Home Card Workshop Friday, Oct 2nd

Mark your calendar for Friday, October 2nd! Here are the 3 cards we'll be making from the new Sweet Home paper. The supply fee is $10, or you can purchase the workshop kit for $29.95. The kit includes an exclusive stamp set, a level 2 paper packet, and an embellishment set. With 3 cards to get done, we'll get started right at 7 pm! Hope to see you there!

Fun Card Night Upstairs!

Fun & Happy Card!

We had another fun card night on 9/4 - making cards upstairs in the new addition! It was fun to have a group up in that space even though it is still empty! I hope you all enjoyed the workshop.

Here is one of the cards we made. We also used the envelope flats available in the CTMH Idea Book. These are great for making your envelope match or coordinate with your card. We also set some eyelets and found out that Hanna was our eyelet queen!

The next card workshop will be Friday, October 2nd at 7:00 pm. This workshop will be the first of the new CTMH Card Workshops. I'll be charging a $10 supply fee for 3 cards. Next week I'll be posting pictures of the cards and of the Card Kit that is available for purchase. If you wish to purchase the Card Kit for $29.95, then the $10 supply fee will be waived. The Kit includes a stamp set, a level 2 paper packet, and an embellishment set. The stamp set is only available in the kit - there is no other way to get it! Check back next week for more information or give me a call. I'll need to order your kit in advance of the workshop.
