Close to my Heart
November  2007
Hi Everybody,

This newsletter is a little late this month. I just got back from a wonderful weekend scrapping and stamping with Close to my Heart in St. Louis! We made some wonderful great new creations and I can't wait to share them with you. So be on the look out soon on my website. If you would like to learn how to create some of those items yourself, set a date with me now and we can set up a workshop!
November Color Club
Summer colors

The color for this month is Autumn Terra Cotta.  You want to remember that you can always add the Stamp of the Month at a reduced rate, especially when you add the supersized featured to the color club! Many of you already do that every month!

The colors over the next months will be:

September: Cocoa with Simple Pleasures Combo Pack papers

October: Cranberry with Everlasting Combo Pack papers

 November:  Autumn Terracotta with Enchanted Combo Pack papers

December: Blush with Life Delights Combo Pack Papers (as a Christmas gift if you have been a color club for at least three months you will get an accordion album from me with this!)

Here are the options again:
1. 6 sheets of cardstock, 12 sheets of b&t paper (combo pack), 1 inkpad $14.50
2. 6 sheets of cardstock, 12 sheets of b&t paper (combo pack), 1 innkpad, 1 maker $18.00
3. Supersize and get bigger brads (approx. 30), 1 ribbon from ribbon rounds, 1 ribbon from designer ribbon rounds, eyelets when available and items from My Acrylics, when available, if not I will add other embellishments, such as paper flowers, buttons, etc. - be surprised! Add $7.50

There is no long term commitment, however, if you join the club I ask that all payments are made by the 15th of that given month. That ensures that I can make my orders in a timely manner. As a member you can always add additional items to your order which will give you the option of additional savings for the Stamp of the Month. All club members will receive a free ideabook with their first order! Active club members will receive each new seasonal idea book as they are issued for free! As long as you have received at least one color club shipment during the quarter.

If you need the club shipped to you contact me for more information.

Remember our Soldiers this Christmas
As we all get our Christmas cards ready this season, I thought it might be a good idea to remember some people who might not be able to celebrate the holidays with their loved ones, because they are serving their country. So, you may want to consider just adding one more address to you Christmas card list this year:

A Recovering American Soldier
c/o Walter Reed Army Medical Center
6900 Georgia Ave, NW
Washington DC 20307-5001

May we all have a blessed holiday season and may the Lord bless them and their families!

Upcoming Events
Since the list of my upcoming events and the details are getting more and more I thought I would include my link here for my section Training and Events from my website. I always add my calendar events and details in that area. The only addition I would like to add is the link for my upcoming show at the Extreme Home Party. That event grows from year to year and is just awesome to attend!

Some other places you may want to catch me are on Tuesdays at the Tuesday Expo.
Fridays and many days in between come on over to the Expo connector.
If you are still looking for some great books for Christmas books, you may want to consider checking out my website with Usborne Books. We have lots of great titles at great prices and you can register for free books!

Also, if you want to find CTMH on PBS you can now check for some local listings! I have a link for you as well. Paint, Paper and Crafts has taped several segments with Close to my Heart Directors. One of them is my direct upline, Karen Pederson! Check your local listings for an upcoming show!

Creative Tip
Snapshots Pages
Those are some of my favorite new pages! If you want to get going on your pages quickly this is the product for you! Both sides are preprinted on 9x9 pages. All you have to do is add your pictures, maybe some embellishments or some stickers, maybe some journaling or a title and you are done! How much easier can it be to get your scrapbooking done! You could have a Bridal Shower and have everone bring a special picture at the end of the shower the bride can take her gift home!

Our Recipie card kit fits perfectly on those snapshots pages as well, as always the pages coordinate with our stickers and other colors as well as our albums! You will love our new Dark Cocoa album with the More to Adore Snapshots pages - just beautiful! Go ahead and try - you won't believe how creative you can be in a hurry ...


This is it for now - sorry this is such a long letter this time - I wanted to add another workshop this month, if I can I will try to add a date for it. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you would like to schedule your special date for a technique gathering or themed party. Let's have some fun and help you earn some special products! Happy Thanksgiving!

Sincerely,
