A Fun Scrapbook Day !!

To everyone who was able to attend the

“Oh My Scraps” Crop Club,

THANK YOU!

Loving your little baskets, really cute! These were cut from the CTMH Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge. These will make cute little treats to give to a friend, Sunday school children, teachers, and even co-workers. Thanks Ana for taking the picture for me.

I had fun...I think I was a little off my game but, I soon was able to get 

in the grove and we had a blast.  Below are some pictures of the 

creativity that was blooming in our Crop Club.

What wonderful work you all did. 

Joann, Thank you again for being such a gracious host and allowing us to invade your home, your finished pages were awesome. 

Stephanie, as always, it was wonderful seeing you and I truly enjoy having you. Katelyn, you’re a creative little guru, thanks for sharing your talents with us.  

It was a joy meeting new people.

April and Anna hope you can come again. We’ll talk soon about you all hosting and receiving your free items as a hostess. Cathleen, you are going to be a wonderful consultant. You have a wonderful talent and I enjoyed scrapbooking with you.

Shelia and Dorothy hope you can make it over next time.

Can’t wait to see what you can do.

Penny, life will slow down and allow you to join in the fun once again. 

I always say, family first.

We do want to say a few prayers for Chris who has been ill, we pray for 

a speedy recovery and hope to see you next time. 

Laurie, maybe you can get off

work for the next event. We miss you both!

Kerry, it was great hearing from you all the way 

from Ga. You are a super trooper. 

A little prayer that your foot heels properly and for a 

speedy recovery. Can't wait to see you in July 

if all works out for you to come to TN to crop. 

Tell Becky, "Welcome Aboard" with our "Oh My Scraps" Crop Club.

Maybe she can come crop with us in July when you come Kerry.

 I can always have a sleep over.

Closer view of the

stamp swirl

 

Cathleen you did an awesome job on your page! The placement of pictures and your 2ndary title is very complimentary. The red mat really helps your pics pop too.I can’t wait to see the second page.

Joann, I love the extra little paper ribbon behind 

the picture.

Fabulous addition with the acrylic sentiment and the chip board too. The stamp set adds a whimsical  delight to the pages

I hope to see those who didn't get to finish their pages, at the open crops so I can add your pictures to the blog. You were all great and I wish we 

could stop the outside world so you could have all the needed time to 

do your projects. 

Life is Life!!! Live it Fully!!!

If you (the reader) are interested in the directions and any of the products used. Please leave me a comment letting me know...I will contact you to send you an email with attachment for instructions and other information.

Leave us some crafty comments below!!

I hope to post

more items later this week.

In the mean time my blogger friends, have a

Fabulous and very Blessed WEEK!!!

Scrapbooking Event & Good News!!

Just finished cutting some of the CTMH papers needed for our Crop Club layout page. Really hope everyone shows up... don't want to waste this fantastic paper pack.

 

Anyway, the page looks great and the stamps I used for my page is awesome.  I added the Pennant Stamp set to go along with the pictured stamp set above. Kept it real basic for the newbies this weekend. We all know we can add more embellishments to our pages if we want more pizazz. I am really loving this Art Philosophy Cartridge.

The Easter gift baskets will be cut tomorrow morning. Waiting on a few last minute counts. I can’t wait for everyone to enjoy and learn how to use the Cricut Art Philosophy from Close To My Heart.

I'll share pics after Saturday's event. I want to have pics of every ones pages so you can get a take on different views of the same layout and layers.

Can't wait to play with the gals at the “Oh My Scraps” Crop Club. I really think you will enjoy the effortless work on the 12x12 layout page and learning or revisiting a few techniques. Wish me luck.

More good news!!! YES!!!, On my my way to set my Business Goals for this year. I have my first down line with Close To My Heart and she is absolutely wonderful. So friendly and very talented as well.  She was thorough in researching to see whom she wanted to be a part of with a home based business.

She looked into other companies of the same format and decided we had a better compensation plan and much more freedom in creativity.

She said, “The amount of items she was getting in her kit along with the added bonus items (Cricut Art Philosophy or $100 in other CTMH products on top of the kit products) was something she could not pass up.”  Just getting the discount alone to support her love of crafting was well worth getting the kit. She is so excited. Welcome aboard Cathleen. I’ll see you on Saturday and I hope your Friday is Blessed with happiness and relaxation after work.

If you (person reading this) are still on the fence about becoming a Close To My Heart Consultant, I am telling you, just try it… we won’t come bang your door down if you decide it’s not for you. You don't have to return anything either. 

There is well over $350. worth of product for $99.00. This will end on March 31st. Do not wait, contact me now. Go to my website to get more information. There is even a video you can watch. Hope you’ll join my team and enjoy a some wonderful products and make a little extra money doing something fun.

Have a wonderful FRIDAY and a great scrap booking/crafty weekend my blogger friends.

Good night all!!!
