Seasonal Expression 2 Launch & Projects

In March, Close To My Heart held events around the country exclusively for consultants. I was so excited when the announcement came that there would be one at Union Station in St. Louis! Based on my past experience at Close To My Heart events, I expected to be inspired, learn, see friends and enjoy getting creative. I was not disappointed.

Inspiration

Members of the Home Office team traveled to the various locations to present. Our host from Home Office was Tiffany Young who started the day with an inspirational message. We were challenged to find new ways to grow our businesses in today’s market. 

Community

One of the best things about going to a Close To My Heart event is the community. It was great to see old friends and meet new ones.

This event was extra special for me because I was joined by my teammembers Ann, Faye, Barbara, Lori and Joan! Yay Treasure Keepers!

Awards

I was truly suprised and honored to receive two awards for highest sales among those in attendance. To remember these achievements, I received beautiful layouts!

Projects

The main event at this launch was the brand new Seasonal Expressions Idea Book. Although these products were not available to the general public until May 1 (to consultants on April 1), we were given the opportunity to make some fun projects with them. I am FINALLY able to share them with you!

Team Building

After the meetings, my team went across the street to Sybergs to relax and visit over a yummy lunch.

Then we headed to my house for an afternoon with more creating. One of the projects we made was this layout using the Live Beautifully paper and stamp setwhich is exclusively available in May 2017 to celebrate National Scrapbooking Month.

All in all, it was full, but great day! The best part of it all is spending time with others who are passionate about memory keeping and being creative. If you would like to be part of it, you are invited to attend our next team meeting in July — as either a team member or just to check us out. This meeting will be immediately after our annual convention so there will be A LOT to share!

Collection of the Month: LIttle Dreamer Bonus Stamp in May

Each month at Show Me Scrapping, we focus on one of the Close To My Heart paper collections. As a reward for purchasing the workshop for that collection during the month, I included a special freebie gift!

This month’s collection, Little Dreamer, is filled with Unicorns, rainbows and all things 80’s. Perfect for pictures of your pre-teen, girlfriends or summer. In May, when you order the Workshop Your Way (or a total of $26.95 from pages 4 – 13 in the Seasonal Expressions 2 Idea Book), you will get the Just For You stamp set free! This M-size stamp set is not available for purchase and includes these fun phrases: “For My Friend”, “Thainking of You”, “Just for You” and “You’re the Best”.  (Please call or email your order to me to take advantage of this offer.)

This workshop includes the following coordinating items:

– Little Dreamer Paper Pack (12 double-sided sheets of printed cardstock) 

– Little Dreamer Complements (stickers and white & purple glitter chipboard pieces)

– Little Dreamer Glitter Gems

– White & Gold ribbon (5 yards)

– 4 sheets solid cardstock (1 Thistle & 3 White)

On my resources page, you can print directions to use these products to make these three 2-page layouts.

Two sheets of paper in your workshop are filled with Picture My Life cards — portrait on one side and landscape on the other. You can use these directly on your pages or put them in divided memory protectors or pocket plus protectors.

The instructions also include details on how to make 9 cards (3 of each design) using your left over paper!

To make the cards you will need these additional supplies: Little Dreamer Cardmaking Stamp + Thin Cuts, Ink Pads(Black, Lagoon, Thistle & Whisper) and White Cards & Envelopes

If you have questions about the bonus stamp set or any of these projects, please just let me know.
