Sneak Peeking

Those of you who have been attending workshops regularly already know that this year CTMH Home Office is making a slight change to our product release schedule.  This is great news for you as well because I am following right in their oh-so-smart footsteps!

Beginning August 1, CTMH is making available one of the newest paper collections one month EARLY.  That's right....starting tomorrow, you will be able to order some of the latest and greatest products in the CTMH Annual Inspirations Idea Book...wooo hoo!

So without further ado, I'd like to introduce you to....   ZOE!

This paper pack, the scrapbooking full WOTG kit and its coordinating elements will all be available to order on my website starting today.

Next up, have you been ORGANIZED enough to find the sneak peek under "Monthly Specials"?

Believe your eyes because CTMH has two wonderful new organizers and they are releasing them early for me and for you, too!

The Accessory roll-up retails for $18.95 (Z3121) and will include two Base & Bling sticker sheets for free when you purchase it.  I cannot wait to get mine set up with all the "little" embellishments I've acquired over the past year....Aqua dots, sparkles, sequins, twine and more!

The Marker roll-up retails for $17.95 (Z3120) and has a FREE stamp set with it, Balloon Wishes.  Finally my gorgeous Shin Han markers will be in one spot which will make me very happy.

Here is a quick pic of the organizers in use and check out more details on the "Specials" page of this website.

Last but not least...

Is that chirping I hear...well that can only mean one thing...CRICUT!

Yes there is a brand NEW Cricut cartridge available NOW called Artistry ($99 retail).  And you may notice something else when you check this out on my website...CTMH Home Office has decided to package our cartridges with THREE fun stamp sets and a FULL package of cardstock.  The newest member of our Cricut family also features the newest cardstock sampler, Enchantment, full of the gorgeous colors which will be replacing our retiring favorites.

I plan to show off all these goodies at my August crops and then surprise you with the rest of it at the New Product Party crops in September.  Hope you've enjoyed this sneak peek and I'll be happy to answer any questions you have....just give me a call or drop me an email.

August Event Changes

I just wanted to take a minute to clear up any confusion about my August crop events.

There will be two this month:

Friday, August 14 $5 per person 7p-11p

Friday, August 28 FREE BYOS crop 7p-11p

At either crop you can bring whatever projects you may wish to work on.  At the $5 gathering on 8/14, I will be featuring Zoe, one of the newest paper packs from CTMH.  I will be teaching the Zoe WOTG that night and will have the completed WOTG on display for those who may want assistance.

I anticipate that the Home Office will get slammed this weekend which means if you think you want to work on the Zoe WOTG on 8/14, you should do your best to order it by 8/4 or 8/5 and pay the $7.95 shipping level.

Additionally, I am going to be trying something new for the next few months to see how it goes.  In this case I am going to be offering a kit for sale that matches the CTMH featured paper pack of the month.  I just finished cutting out all of the pieces and hope to have a sneak peek to show you tomorrow afternoon....

Finally, speaking of sneak peeks, you will definitely want to swing by this space around midnight tonight because that is when I will be posting my August Sneak Peeks.

CTMH Home Office has released a few new products from the Idea books EARLY...which means you can begin to purchase them on my website TOMORROW!

Check back then and be sure to let me know if you have any questions...

Thanks everyone who has stuck with me in this incredible journey.
