New from Close to My Heart!

There is sooo much going on right now!

We have a new Stamp of the Month- This Moment- great for getting that special Valentine's card made, or that special layout done afterwards!

There's a new Constant Campaign for National Papercrafting Month - Year >> Noted :
During the month of January, with a qualifying purchase of $50, you are eligible to purchase the exclusive Year >> Noted paper kit (which has a retail value of $27 CAD!)  for only $5—that’s over 80% off retail! Or, for an additional $5, you can order the Year >> Noted paper kit with an accompanying My Creations™ kraft mini book. The paper kit for both options includes a C-size stamp set, stickers, cardstocks, and B&T Duos™ papers, all specially designed to coordinate with the My Creations™ kraft mini book. This means you will receive over $37 CAD worth of product for only $10 if you purchase the kit with the accompanying mini book! Remember, this deal is only available for January, so make sure to get your own Year >> Noted paper kit today for the perfect start to a crafty year! 

And a SUPER Extra Extra Special for Hostesses this month - for Gatherings reaching $350 or more in sales, the Hostess will receive 50% MORE in HOSTESS Credits!!  So, a Gathering of $350 that would usually get the Hostess $60 in Credits will now be $90 and a Gathering of $450 that would usually be $80 in Credits will be a Whopping $120, etc- so you could earn up to 
***!!! $230 in Hostess Credits!!!***
 Please contact me to place your order or set up your own Gathering.  It can be an 'in house' Gathering /presentation, or an 'in house' class- scrapbooking or cardmaking- your choice.  And don't worry, we can include your friends from away with an online option.  Please note tho, that the number of 1/2 price items will not change.

Also, several new items are starting to come available- the Rolling Tote, the matching Shoulder Tote, the new D-ring and post- bound Albums in Lagoon chevron and Ruby rose.  Let me know if you're interested- start a Gathering, order a couple of items and get EXTRA Hostess credits!

And don't forget the current Seasonal Expressions!  Many of these items- like the Hopscotch and Heartstrings paperpacks and their Workshops- are time-sensitive, available only until the end of March.  Order soon, before they're gone!!

More to come soon, so stay tuned!

Happy New Year!!

I'm still here; just getting over the Holiday craziness.  The kiddies go back to school tomorrow and then it's back to the grindstone for me!

What's coming up?
- there's a blog hop coming out on the 15th so keep an eye out for that. 
-then there's the classes I have to prep for and a couple that have been requested,
--  Guys and Geeks- cards for guys and nerds!  (3-4hrs)
--  Layouts- make several layouts from 1 paperpack, using Complements too  (3-4hrs)
--  Layouts- make 2- 2 pg layouts (2-3hrs)
-- Picture My Life-  learn to use up all those cards by making a 'pocket' layout, by using the cards on a conventional 2 pg layout, by making a few greeting cards and a gift-able mini album.
-and there's a 12 hour fundraising crop here in Metcalfe, at St Catherine's school on the 31st (contact   the school Parent Council @ stcatscouncil@gmail.com for info pls).  I am a vendor here and will probably have a mini class.  A percentage of all orders received for the crop and ttil the day after the crop count towards the fundraising. 

Stay tuned for more!!
