Dallas was a blast! This was the best convention thus far - I can't believe how much product CTMH gave away, how much we learned, all the pampering, and rewards for the hard work of so many consultants!! The BEST idea book yet will be released on Wednesday August 1st! Make sure to comment on this post so that I can save you a copy! They go fast and I only have a limited number of them! Beautiful artwork, classic ideas, new stamp sets, tools & COLORS! That is a big change - we have firmed up our EXCLUSIVE COLOR line to better balance our color spectrum - we have 40+ white & colonial white! I can't wait to show you all the new product including THE NEW CRICUT CARTRIDGE exclusive to CTMH - ARTISTE - this cartridge is going to WOW you! 3D at it's best! Same great price as Art Philosophy - same great deal - cartridge, 3 exclusive stamp sets & dimensional elements! READY for some FREE goodies?? Schedule your home gathering today OR get ready to sign up as a new consultant - A choice of consultant kit to fit your budget and level of business you are ready for: Essentials at $49 or Master at $99 - pair that with a special campaign in August to brag about - a beautiful damask bag FREE with your consultant kit!

Happy July!! While I prefer cooler weather, the summer brings ONE thing I LOVE! CONVENTION!! Close To My Heart celebrates consultants, new products, artwork, creativity, business ideas, and friendships in a HUGE EVENT! This is an event I look forward to each year! They pick a theme, a city and construct an event to help light our creative fire, give us business tools, and bring it all together with great fun and excitement! This year the fun will be in DALLAS, TEXAS! So countdown with me until the fun begins! Here is some cards made this week in my creative time!

Goodbye November

I must say November whisked by without even a chance to come up for air!
My FALL decorating consisted of spreading around leaves that my dear friends rescued for me from the mountains of NC!
There has been plenty of papercrafting going on - pictures will follow this post - I have added 'new camera battery' to my wishlist as the two current failing ones slow down the process of taking & adding photos. I have been in rescue mode of my pictures this month. My 'mini vault' for storage off the computer is giving up and I am patiently trying to move the zillion photos from it before it refuses to allow access again!!

TOMORROW Starts a new month - We welcome you DECEMBER! Even being a busy time of year - the delight of friends, family, tradition, love, and the gift of a Savior are things to be cherished!


HOW WILL YOU BE SPENDING YOUR HOLIDAY MONTH??
Comment below a favorite tradition for the Christmas season??

Happy Monday!

Well this weekend's SCRAPTIQUE event was a GRAND success!
My friend and upline with Close To My Heart, Susan T. and I had a wonderful time teaching and serving ladies from all over Southern Florida!
Origami Wreaths were a hit and people were making multiple ones of every kind of paper!
Susan and I dressed up - she was a giant tomato and I was "Smartie Pants Papercrafter" - answers for ALL your Papercrafting questions!!
MARK YOUR CALENDARS for JANUARY 28-29, 2012 for the next event!

Now to unpack my supplies! Happy Monday - make it a great day!
