The theme for the May 2021 Album Retreat has been announced: “My 5 Senses”! All of the layouts in this 22 page kit will be centered around things that we see, hear, smell, taste, and feel. These pages include papers and stamps from the yet-to-be released May – June catalog plus lots of fun techniques and interactive details. This is going to be such a fun book to make!
What is an Album Retreat?
For years, Close To My Heart has sponsored “Album Retreats” for consultants to make an album that features all new products and lots of techniques. It was a way for use to learn and be equipped to teach our customers. Because of the pandemic, in 2020 CTMH started offering these retreats virtually and since they were no longer bound to the space in a meeting room, these amazing events were opened up and are no longer “consultant -only”.
This year’s virtual Album Retreat will be held on May 14 – 15 in a private Facebook. During those two days, instructors will walk your through each step in the process to make these beautiful pages. If you cannot make it to all of the sessions live, that’s ok because the group will remain available for you to watch them afterwards.
How can I be part of this?
To participate in this event, simply purchase the album bundle (EB20214)—there is no separate registration fee! Your kit will include all of the base and cut papers needed for the pages. You’ll also get stamp sets and thin cuts needed to make these elaborate decorative pages. As we get closer to the event, Close To My Heart will send an email to everyone who has purchased the bundle with an invitation to join a private Facebook group where the event will be held. A list of additional materials needed to complete the project will be added in the coming days.
