Summer Catalog!

Announcing . . . the new SUMMER CTMH catalog!  I have it . . . I've been drooling and dreaming of all of these fun scrapbook and stamping projects.

Feel free to come on by tomorrow and sneak a peek!  Free catalog for everyone that comes and, even more fun, we're making adorable bookmarks!  Hope to see you tomorrow, Saturday, May 1st anytime from 10:00 to 2:00!  Call me if you need directions (925)830-9544.

My Heart 2 Heart Challenge

I thought I would give the Heart 2 Heart Blog Challenge a go.  The challenge is to use at least 2 different ribbons on the card . . . something I would shy away from because I tend to want things to be matching.

This 4 1/2" x 4 1/2" card is based on the Wishes pattern "All Squared Up."  The background and texture paper is from the Veranda paper set and the flowers and flower box stamps are from this month's stamp of the month, "Flower Pot."  The three ribbons are all CTMH, as is the paper flower and button.

This blog is really inspiring me to get creative!  Check it out:  http://heart2heartchallenges.blogspot.com/

Have fun and stamp a little every day!

Stamping Fun Projects!

We made this fun gift bag at a recent Consultant Team gathering. Isn't it fun? It's just a strip of 4" x 12" paper, folded to fit the little white gift sack in the middle (scored 5" from each long end). The little paper flower is colored with the Create a Shade Pearl Paint with a touch of Sorbet reinker.

This project took almost no time to make and would make a great party favor for just about any occasion.

It's a NEW catalog!

I'm excited to announce that the Summer catalog will be available for ordering . . . beginning May 1st. Wahoo!

This issue is really, really fun! I love all the color combinations and the new stamps, but I especially love all the new samples and ideas. Lots and lots of stamplifting to be had with this issue!

To celebrate this very fun issue . . . come to my Stamp Studio for a fun celebration gathering (oh, David still thinks it's our living room . . . sheesh!) You can pick up your very own issue (free, of course) and browse through my samples, make a free make and take, using the new Cherry-O paper, and, of course there is chocolate! LOL

Come on by, Saturday May 1st from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Hope to see you Saturday!

With the release of this new catalog I have had a few questions . . .
First of all, the products in the Winter 2010 and Spring 2010 are still available, including the Workshops on the Go. If you are ever in question about whether a product is still available or maybe you are scrapbooking Christmas in the summer and would like a new snowman set . . . just go to my website and click on the shopping link.

This also means that nothing has been retired from the current collection (whew!). The retirement of product is usually done in November in preparation for the Winter catalog. The only products that are not available are the past Stamps of the Months.

Have fun making your lists and shopping to your heart's content. Stamping and scrapbooking with CTMH is always easier when you can shop online! :-)

Happy Stamping and Scrapbooking!
