OCTOBER Classes, Specials and More!

Hello Friends~

Its my favorite time of year, the Fall season has definitely set in.  Cool crisp mornings, sweater weather, and colors are changing, that is Colorful Colorado!!!  Last weekend, Ken and I were able to get away to enjoy what Mother Nature provides for us.  Every year in October, I am also able to enjoy a scrapbook retreat in the mountains of Colorado with a wonderful group of friends...next weekend will be so much fun, full of good food, good company and so much creating!  It's a time of year I look forward to all year long.

Its a fun time to be with CTMH too!  New products recently released, and more coming again next month! So much I want to offer, so little time, now that I'm working full time. But I'm going to do my best, sharing all the exciting new workshops with you. Read on to learn more...

I can't say enough, how much I appreciate and thank you for your continued support of my CTMH business!  I accomplished one of my biggest goals of the last 19 years BECAUSE of YOU!!!  I earned the incentive trip to Tahiti next April, and as much as I wish I could bring each of you along with me, please know I will be thinking of you each and every day I am relaxing on a hammock on the beaches of Tahiti.  THANK YOU! It couldn't have come at a better time!

Continuing to preserve the memories that matter most ~ YOURS!

NEW PRODUCTS - September Classes and Specials!

Hello Friends~

They're here!  It's September 1st and that means the release of our new Core Catalog and our September/October supplement!   That's right, we will now be releasing new products in an annual Core Products catalog and in bimonthly supplemental catalogs!  That means new product will be coming at you every other month, allowing new products to be unveiled little snippets at a time! Oh my...

Want to get both of these gorgeous catalogs in your hands? Place an order (of any amount) on my website this month and BOTH catalogs will be added to your order for FREE! After October, the Core Catalog will not be included in your orders, only the supplemental catalogs will be included.

NEW PRODUCTS GALORE!  So many new and exciting products are in store, here is a quick look at some of the biggest product announcements:

• Standard paper packets will consist of 6 patterned papers instead of 12.  You will also have the choice between a paper packet that includes a 12x12 coordinating sticker sheet and a paper packet without. No more fussy cut sheets!
• Scrapbooking workshops will now include die-cut sheets and exclusive accessories that will simplify the creative process for all of us.
• A new How-To book called Penmanship with Melissa Esplin will be available with instructions, examples and practice pages for mastering different penmanship techniques.  Along with this product line will be a set of brush pens and exclusive stamp sets designed by Melissa in the Penmanship Bundle.
• Our Craft with Heart subscription program will now offer a card subscription option in addition to the scrapbooking subscriptions.  Cardmaking subscriptions will be available in 4-month and annual increments.
• CUSTOM CARDSTOCK PACKS will allow you to select your own colors of cardstock to create a pack of 12 or 24 sheets of your choosing in increments of two sheets per color!
• 10 brand new digital files (SVGs) especially designed for decorating the covers of scrapbook albums, are available to order directly from my website!
• Everyday Life albums are now available in new colors and in new sizes!
• Spectrum Noir TriBlend alcohol markers will replace the ShinHan markers.  Each TriBlend marker is three markers in one, with three beautiful shades made to blend together!
• One of the new programs being launched is that CTMH Consultants are now Cricut Affliates!  What this means, is that whenever you shop on Cricut, as long as you use my link or go through the Cricut link on my website, I will make a small commission.  This includes machines, supplies images and subscriptions.
• On this same note, we have a new CTMH Digital Cricut Collection called Complete Creativity coming and CTMH Consultants have exclusive access for one year on this new collection, so you can only get it through us!  I hope you'll consider using my link when you shop at Cricut in the future.  Here's my new Cricut affiliate link.  You can find the Cricut icon on my website when you click on my name at the top of my consultant website or at the very bottom of the page on my website.  By using the green Cricut icon when you are on my website, it will take you to Cricut and I will get a small commission for your purchase. I'm still learning about all the details and will share more soon.

You'll want to see all that is new...view the new catalogs online. 

From the bottom of my heart, I thank you for your continued support of my little CTMH business!  I appreciate each of you, and am thankful CTMH has brought us together, all because of our passion for stamping and scrapbooking.

I don't want you to miss out on any of our monthly specials, so grab your favorite beverage and hang on...here we go!  There is ALOT to catch up on, and I realize time is precious to everyone, choose your favorites and come to play!  I'm going to put all the dates out there for you, I hope to see you soon!

Preserve the memories that matter most~ YOURS!

1) GRATEFUL FOR YOU Cardmaking WYW Workshop - Come create 12 cards, 6 each of 2 designs.  Stamp set included in your purchase of the card kit!  Terrific sentiments to use for any occasion!



WHEN: (Choose Your Day) - Fri 6/28 (3-6pm), Sat 6/29 (9am-noon)
WHERE: Julie's StampNScrap Studio
RSVP by Tuesday, June 18th with order and payment
CLASS FEE: $19.95* - order #G1183 Grateful for You Cardmaking kit - view kit contents
     *I also added a package of Gold Glitter Gems (#Z3312, $5.50) as I designed the cards shown, or bring coordinating gems from your stash (I find it holds the twine better than glue dot alone).

MUST BRING TO PARTICIPATE: 12" paper trimmer, adhesives (tape runner, 3D foam tape, mini glue dots), scissors, paper piercing tool, VersaMat (optional, highly recommended)

INKS: Charcoal, New England Ivy, Peach, Sapphire  BLOCKS: 1x1, 1x3.5, 2x2, 2x3.5

2) THINKING OF YOU Cardmaking WYW Workshop - Come create 12 cards, 6 each of 2 designs or reverse the sentiments and get 3 each of 4 designs!



WHEN: (Choose Your Day) - Fri, 7/5 (9am-noon), Sat 7/6 (9am-noon), Sun 7/7 (1-4pm)
WHERE: Julie's StampNScrap Studio
RSVP by Friday, June 21st with order and payment
CLASS FEE: $20.95 - order #G1181 Thinking of You Cardmaking kit - view kit contents
     *HINT: the instructions recommend using micro glue dots to adhere the loose sequins, I found using a liquid glue is much more effective, such as our new Dual-Tip Permanent Glue Pen or Liquid Glass with the Fine Tip Applicator.

MUST BRING TO PARTICIPATE: 12" paper trimmer, adhesives (tape runner, 3D foam tape, liquid adhesive as mentioned above, or glue dots), scissors, paper piercing tool, VersaMat (optional, highly recommended), WaterBrush-small round

INKS: Intense Black or Archival Black, Eggplant, New England Ivy, Sapphire
BLOCKS: 1x1, 1x3.5, 2x2, 3x3

3) TRUE LOVE Scrapbooking Workshop - Come create FOUR 2-page layouts using the jewel toned True Love paper suite.

*The WYW kit is very themed oriented to weddings, however, I wanted to be able to show this kit in a more versatile way (even though I did end up using it to scrapbook my nephews wedding).  I did change the layouts completely from what is shown in the catalog with the WYW kit.  Which also allows for the use of many Flip Flaps! Photo sizes are 4x6, 3x4 and 3x3.

Layouts are intentionally shown without embellishments, because once you add photos, these layouts can be customized to preserve your memories of any day!  If you have wedding or anniversary pictures to scrapbook, I would highly recommend the True Love WYW Scrapbooking Kit, the Complements included in the kit are wedding themed.  If you plan on scrapbooking other occasions or just everyday life, I would suggest purchasing the True Love Paper Pack.  Either option will need the True Love Coordinating Cardstock.

WHEN: (Choose Your Day): Fri, 7/19 (9am-1pm) or (5-9pm), Sat, 7/20 (9am-1pm), Sun, 7/21 (1-5pm)
WHERE: Julie's StampNScrap Studio
