Sorry it's been a while since I posted on my blog...I post on Facebook and Instagram @LaurenLovesToScrap Between the holidays and my whole family being sick I just haven't been able to fit in my blog too. But I'm here today to share January's special. You are going to love these kits! If you liked the wreath kit I shared a while back...then you'll be amazed at what Close To My Heart has come up with!
Check out just how easy it is by watching this fast little video CTMH put together...you'll love this kit once you see it!
PS. I started mine (and will post a photo as soon as I'm completely finished). I bought the letter "D" and I'm going to use the banner for it to say "Dare Greatly". I wanted a reminder in my craft room...since that is what I plan to do this year...dare greatly!
I thought I'd share something I started working on this past weekend. I decided to set up a craft space in my garage area. It's a start. I still plan to have the 2 yellow/orange pictures moved. The big board is going to get covered and decorated...then put up. The stamp sets are going to get snaps removed and organized. I'm going to hang something on the other wall facing the chair. I still have organizing to work on...and I'm thinking some sort of shelving unit to hold all the boxes on the side with my paper (not all my stuff...I have my markers, ink pads, more paper, and the rest in my house in 2 cabinets). What do you think so far? Any advice or tips you want to share?
I thought I'd share the special deal CTMH is having until the end of July. Buy 2 stamp sets and get the 3rd one of equal or lesser valueFREE! Choose from any current stamp set, plus a collection of popular sets that CTMH has brought back just for Stampaganza!
When you add three sets to your order, the website will automatically make the least expensive set FREE in your shopping cart. Check your cart at any time to see how many free sets you have. Who doesn't love earning free stuff?!
CTMH is having the big convention (starting today for leadership day) and going until Saturday July 1st. I'm bummed since I couldn't go...but excited for all my consultant friends that are going to be there. This is the time we find out what's in the next annual catalog...all the new exciting products! Which, as a consultant, I find out early (become a consultant and you can order it all early too!).
This is also the time to remember just about everything in the annual catalog right now is going to retire...so I make sure to look it all over really well, and make sure if there is any products in it that I still want...I should order it now before it's gone!
It's still crazy busy at my house but wanted to share the special and SOTM for February. You are going to love this set! Check out these cute bunnies for Easter cards, tags, and cute craft projects! For just a $50 purchase you can get this set at a discounted rate of $5.
Here is some cute ideas from CTMH's Art Department...just adorable!
The special for the month is "Sign Me Up!" so if you are thinking of becoming a CTMH consultant...this is the month to do it! You can get the above stamp set and also March and April's SOTM FREE! Just got to my website HERE for FAQ and to sign up!
I wanted to share some news today...I am super excited about! You can now get all CTMH Ink Pads in the new style pad. Wait until you get them in your hands...you are going to love them. They are bigger...they are super easy to open...they stack together (they have magnets to keep them together). You are going to want to go to my website to get an order in today!
I thought today I would share a video that Close To My Heart put on youtube called "Look Inside the 2016 Holiday Expressions Idea Book".I thought I would share this video because they show us all the fun craft products now available.So, take a few minutes and check out the video!
Guess what today is?! If you said CTMH is bringing out a brand new catalog (hit this link to see all the new amazing products) today...you'd have guessed correctly!! Check out this cover! It is just beautiful!
If you like these flowers...and want to make them...you'll need to order the brand new cricut cartridge "Flower Market" (Z3285)! Aren't these flowers just beautiful?!
Also, while I'm here I'll share this month's special "Basically the Best" with you too! You can earn free paper with this special. Nice!! If you have any questions contact me.
I thought today I'd share June's special...each Friday during the month of June there will be a new set of bundles you can order. There will be lots to choose from at various discount levels and price points, but you’ll need to snatch them up quick, because they’re only available through the following Monday while supplies last. So make sure to check my website Friday afternoon each week to get the deals!
I thought today I would share a video that Close To My Heart put on youtube called "DIY Baby Mobile".I thought I would share this video because they show us how to make a baby mobile. But, you could change the images and make an adorable gift for anyone (make it with butterflies and anyone, not just a baby would love it). So, take a few minutes and check out the video!
I thought today I would share a video that Close To My Heart put on youtube called "The Close To My Heart Opportunity: You Are Welcome Here".I thought I would share this video because they explain what is in the new CTMH consultant kit. The kit is only $75 (+tax & S/H)...but you can earn so much more products! So, take a few minutes and check out the video!
I had a great time on Saturday at CTMH's Spring Launch event. I got to hang out with so many fun ladies! Even met a few new ladies I hadn't met before. And, I have to say...I am in love with the new catalog! I can't wait to get my hands on all the fun products in this catalog! But...it made me realize how many products we have in the current catalog that will be going away soon and I need to get another order in before the paper and stamps retire. I figured I'd remind you not to wait too long because as we get closer to the end...the paper packs get sold out. So don't wait! Order today!
I thought today I would share a video that Close To My Heart put on youtube called "Brush Calligraphy With Watercolor".I thought I would share this video because they show us how to do calligraphy with our watercolor paint. Looks like it will be fun to try out. So, take a few minutes and check out the video!
I thought I'd share today a few key chains I made. It was not that easy to get good photos (the spots in the photos are just in the photos, not on the charms). But they do make great gifts! I used CTMH's Base & Bling line along with some Liquid Glass. Super fast and easy to put together.
CTMH has decided to have a big sale...starting today...Nov 30th at 9 am MST to Dec 4th 4 pm MST. There will be 39 items 25% off (including 1 of the Cricut collections!).
I thought today I'd share one of my most favorite products CTMH has...it's called "Shimmer Trim". It seems that CTMH keeps adding colors with each catalog...so I'm guessing I'm not the only person who adores this stuff. I love glitter, but it always seems to get everywhere...and not want to get cleaned up. Well, with shimmer trim we have glitter...but it's not messy! It's easy to store since it's on a roll, you can use it in place of ribbon for embellishing a project, and it has a sticky back so you don't even need to add adhesive. I just LOVE this stuff! Check it out...because I think once you do you'll love it too!
I thought today I'd share a cute Halloween mini album that I made for a gift for someone I know. I used the Cricut "Artbooking" collection (Z3169) to cut out the designs. (Incase you're wondering why the pages aren't together...I took the photos of the pages before I strung the album together.) I used the paper pack "Nevermore" (X7198B) and added a little extra black cardstock (1386). I also added black glitter paper (Z1829) behind the letters on the front page (and a bit near the word "Boo"). Now all she'll have to do is add a few photos and she'll have something cute to show off.
I thought today I'd share some more artwork using the paper pack "Nevermore". CTMH's Art Department did some amazing work with this paper. I love the rose flower wreath. I also love the bats on the banner...super fun! The candle covers and the picture with the date are easy ways to dress up the house for Halloween too!
We are lucky ducks today! #CTMH has 2 brand new catalogs that came out today...stuffed full of fun crafty products! I'm so excited! We have an annual inspirations catalog and a holiday expressions one! The AI catalog is good for the whole year and the HE catalog is good until the end of 2015. That gives us 4 months to get all the products we'll need to make our gifts, tags, cards, and scrapbook layouts for the holidays coming up soon! You can see both catalogs HERE!
I thought today I would share a video that Close To My Heart put on youtube called "Base & Bling Style".I thought I would share this video because they show how to make these fabulous necklace charms using the Base & Bling product line. It goes into a little more detail than last week's video that I posted. So, take a few minutes and check out the video!
