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!

OCTOBER Classes, Specials and More!

Hello Friends~

It's Autumn, and I couldn't be happier!  It's my favorite time of the year, especially living in Colorado!  This morning, the air was so cool and crisp, and I quickly realized our furnace was turned off this summer, and the thermostats were turned down to 55*.  Most of you know, we tend to keep our house on the cooler side anyway...but this morning, it was super chilly (even for me!).

Not that any of us need the reminder that the holidays are quickly approaching...but its a good time to remind you, I do offer CTMH Gift Cards any time of the year, in any dollar amount. And I know many of you have a HUGE wish list from products in the new Holiday Expressions, myself included!

Here's a sample of one, a friend received recently:

     

Do you like giving store gift cards to friends and family?  Want to give your gift cards a creative edge?  I will post a tutorial on how I made this Gift Card Holder in my VIP group this week.  If you're not a member of my VIP group on Facebook yet, and would like to be, please contact me!

Also, let's not forget about Craft With Heart subscriptions for the holidays!  Choose either monthly, 4-month or annual subscriptions, whatever your preference!  These paper project kits will keep you connected to your passion of scrapbooking.

I'm so thankful that CTMH has brought us together, all because of our passion for stamping and scrapbooking...we all have the creative juices running through us!  I appreciate your continued support of what I do each month with CTMH, and I cherish each of your friendships.  YOU are some of my closest friends, and I can't imagine not knowing you!  Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Hello Friends~

Here we are, fully into the month of October...how can that be?  At times, my best intentions don't always pan out, I hoped to have this posted before my retreat.

I recently returned from our 8th annual scrapbook retreat with a bunch of friends, what fun we had!  These ladies are some of the best friends I could ask for - so much laughter, great food, happy hour cocktails, and of course, scrapbooking and card-making!  It's wonderful to be in the Colorado mountains in October, colors are changing, cool days and crisp nights.

There's lots to talk about during the month of October with CTMH, so let's get right down to business!  Read on for all the juicy details!

General rules will be announced at the beginning of each session, be sure to be on time!  

Everyone starts and ends at the same time.  Each card must be completed before moving on to the next card, you cannot take cards home to complete, you only have 2 hours to complete as many cards as you can, and most importantly, you MUST care for my products as if they were your own.

Hello Friends!

Happy September, ya'll!  It's my FAVORITE time of year, I adore the Fall season, especially in Colorado with the crisp mornings, warm days and cool nights!  I'm looking forward to seeing the colors change too. What's your favorite season?

I'm sharing another fun, memorable photo from Convention.  For the first time ever, CTMH offered Home Office Tours to Convention attendees.  It was so fun seeing where all the magic happens!  We were able to see the beautiful Lobby, Art Studio, Jeanette's office, Executive Board Room, but none of the production of our acrylic stamps...I was hoping to see that process.  Still, it was great fun to share this experience with my team!

The holidays are coming up on us too, have you seen all the fabulous new product in the NEW Holiday Expressions?!?  Its filled with so many wonderful new products, papers, embellishments, stamp sets and thin cuts...oh my!  My wish list is LONG on this one!

Inside you'll find new Cut Above kits (scrapbooking, card making and tags!), Cats & Bats, Falling for You, Beary Christmas and Silver & Gold.  Grab your favorite beverage, sit back and enjoy all the creativity inside the new Holiday Expressions.   If you need your copy of either the new Annual Inspirations or the Holiday Expressions, please contact me...let's get them in your hands!

This month of September is full, I've got so much going on in other aspects of life.  So, thankfully, I can work CTMH around my crazy schedule.  My workshops for September will be coming later in the month, as I have my nephews wedding this weekend, my 35 year high school class reunion, Vegas next week for a dental convention, our 20th wedding anniversary...somewhere amidst of all of the fun, I will be squeezing in new workshops too!

Feel free to share this blog post with your friends who LOVE to stamp, scrapbook and paper-craft.  I always appreciate your referrals...and I love to reward YOU too!  I sincerely thank you for your continued friendship and support...I truly appreciate YOU!
