Visiting this cutie! Scrapbooking on the road!

I am sitting at the airport waiting to board after visiting my daughter in Utah!  I surprised her with a visit for her birthday!  We giggled and ate and sewed and played games and watched movies and played with Cricut and shopped.  And it went by way too fast!  LOVE YOU, my grown up baby girl!

Last night while winding down, I logged onto Studio J, Close To My Heart's digital online scrapbooking program.  I created a layout in about 10 minutes, then uploaded a couple of pictures and there it is.  How fun and easy.  I am also using the brand new paper "Zoe".... available in the 2015-16 Annual Expressions Catalog.  This paper pack is available NOW, even though the catalog isn't live until September 1st.  Love it!  Now to create some with Cassie and I, LOL!

WOW!!! Is it really August already! So much exciting stuff with Close To My Heart

FIRST OF ALL.... We have a brand new "New Consultant Kit" available!  

It is fabulous!  For only $129 (plus tax and shipping) you will receive over $450 worth of fun stuff to start your own Close To My Heart business!  And believe me it is lots of fun!  I have been a consultant for 19 years next month and can't imagine life without it.  You can go HERE to join on my website or just email me with any questions!  

ALSO, if you have been a consultant in the past, with your ending date since January 2013, you have the option of re-joining for only $49, with an "Essentials Kit", with a smaller version of the "essentials" that you will need to get going again.  Go to www.karenkrafts.ctmh.com and click on "what we do" and then "be a consultant".  

NEXT... August Sneak Peaks and Specials!  

Starting with a New Cricut Cartridge!!!!  It's fabulous!  It is called "Artistry". Even though the new catalog isn't live until September, this cartridge is available NOW!  With over 700 images, and many that connect with stamp sets, it will be a must have, whether or not you stamp with them or not. The cartridge not only includes a unique font, but many banners, layering shapes, borders, backgrounds, icons and just loads of fun.  Besides the fabulous cartridge, you also will get 3 D-sizes stamp sets ($17.95 value each).  They are very versatile and work great with cartridge and also a assorted package of our Enchantment color palette Cardstock ($14.50 value). What a great place to start. So you see what a great value this whole cricut cartidge assortment really is.  Go to HERE to order and while you're there browse around at the other things you just have to have.

Secondly for August Sneak Peaks and Specials....

We are having a great "Organization" special this month!  Available in the new catalog September 1st, but more importantly available now in August with the extra bonus are these Organizing Tools. 

There is the zippered roll up organizer, you can store many things in,  As shown here you can store and organize your "Base & Bling" supplies.  (If you don't know what those are, that is a whole other topic... great, fun, Close To My Heart creations of jewelry) You can also store, accessories, ribbon, die cuts, sparkles, buttons, etc.  What else can you think of?  When purchasing this organizer, you will receive 2 sheets of the Base & Bling Sticker sheets FREE!  Go HERE to order this one.

Here's the other organizer... instead of a zipper, there are loops!  Super great for your markers!  I cannot wait to get ahold of this one and get my markers organized!!!  WOOT WOOT!  With them more accessible, I'll be able to better use them!  Also with this purchase you can see (in the picture below) the FREE stamp set you will receive!  You can order this HERE!

 

Third for August Sneak Peaks and Specials....

 

Stamp of the Month for August is just plain fun and versatile!  When you order $50, you can purchase this stamp set for only $5, or if you just want it with no minimum purchase, you can purchase it for the retail price of $17.95.

 

One more thing to share!  "ZOE"!!!! This adorable paper pack will be shown in the Annual Expressions Catalog, again released in September, but.... this one you can order in August.  So bright and fun and sweet... Gotta have it!  You can see a picture of all the papers included in this kit HERE.  You can also order there too.

School Is Starting Back... How about a Scrapbook 101 Course?

I have been wanting to get going again with teaching scrapbooking classes, groups and workshops!  I decided, "Why not, offer a 'Scrapbook COURSE' with school starting back, just like a college course!  I really, really am excited about it.

Starting September 10th - November 12th... we will have 8 classes, each focusing on a different aspect of scrapbooking, such as;

• Cutting/Pattern Guides
• Stamping in Scrapbooks
• Cricut Scrapbooking
• Embellishing/stickers
• Scrapbook Kits
• Pocket Scrapbooking
• Digital Scrapbooking
• Mini Scrapbooks

I think doing this will help you find out your favorite way to scrapbook.  You may not have much time... you'll find an option for that.  You may like working with your laptop on your lap in from of the TV... there's an option for that.  You may like lots of embellishing... there's an option for that, etc. 

The class and material cost will be $135!  The cost will go completely toward the materials, by class end you will have received, at least, 4 paper packs, accessories, stickers, a stamp set, page protectors, digital layouts, a set of Picture My Life Cards, and more.  This will include enough product to create 14+ scrapbook layouts or 28+ pages... with materials to take home. 

Each week we'll have a prize drawing or two so you could go home with something extra too.

Each person will need to bring their "Basic Supply Kit", which includes:

• Paper Trimmer
• Scissors
• Adhesive

If you don't have a Basic Supply Kit you can purchase that from me for $65.

PLEASE tell your friends and let's fill this class up! 

I can't wait, it's going to be fun!
