Come Learn the Wonderful World of Watercoloring!


WATERCOLORING CLASS

DATE:  WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 7th
TIME:  9:00-11:00 a.m OR 6:30-8:30 p.m.
COST:  $25.00
R.S.V.P:  on/before  FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 25th

I was so happy to see the NEW! watercolor paints, brushes and watercolor paper in the NEw Close To My Heart Idea book and I am really excited to teach some watercoloring techniques at this class.
You will create 6 cards at class, but more importantly, you will learn a few techniques that can be used for all sorts of things!  The materials to create the cards will be free (my treat).  You are just paying for the paints and brushes.

Here is  wonderful testimony about our watercolor brushes from a consultant who is a mixed media artist.
" I am enjoying the watercolors and i have to say a thing or two about the brushes. I purchased an Artists Loft set of brushes for watercolor and thought I would test them against the CTMH brushes. Hands down CTMH wins, These brushes are a quality product. The Michaels brand one kept shedding and making a hot mess . I cannot say enough about our CTMH brushes , I think I will order another set just to have, they are THAT good !"

Along with the paints/brushes you will be using exclusive stamp sets that are available in SEPTEMBER ONLY.  Each set is $16.00 or you can purchase all 3 exclusive sets for just $40.40 (these prices include the shipping and tax expense).

Sneak Peeks!

Hi There!
I can't believe it is already Thursday.  I have been busy creating, in my studio, samples for upcoming classes that I will be offering in October.  Several samples will be on display at my Chocolate themed Party Tuesday evening.  I hope all you local friends can plan to attend.  Not only will there be chocolate to eat, a free create & take project, but lots of fun and projects on parade, too!

CTMH introduced a new Base & Bling product line with this 2015-2106 Annual Inspirations Idea Book.  We now offer gold and silver chains and pendants, new style sheets , a variety of new charms & beads , 3 new style sheets (one is a holiday/winter theme) AND there is a new alphabet stamp (Etched Alphabet #A1182) set that works perfectly on cards and layouts AND with the style sheets, too!  My base & bling buffet will be set up at  Tuesday's celebration.






I will also have several of my holiday themed classes on parade for you to view and sign up for!
 It is certainly going to be a fun few hours.  I do hope you can participate!  R.S.V.P on/before SATURDAY!

Make it a great day!

Day #17 of the Top 17 CTMh Product Picks!


We have made it to day #17!  I hope you have enjoyed these product picks and perhaps have learned something new about a few of the many products Close To my Heart has to offer.  Before I share the product pick of the day I just want to let all those who live local to me that I am currently having a HUGE sale.  I have gone through all my stamp sets and there are many many sets on my sale buffet table.  Some have never even been used!  All stamp sets are just $5.00.  If you buy 3 sets, you get the 4th set FREE!  Contact me if you are interested in stopping by to take a peek!

Todays's product feature is PICTURE MY LIFE.  I love this product line for not only memory keeping, but for card making and even gift wrappings and home decor, too!
Picture My Life allows us to tell our story in a very simple way.  No more getting behind in preserving our memories!  The process only takes a moment, but the memories last for years to come.  This scrapbook program preserves life beautifully and still leaves you with time to live it, so you can pocket your memories and get right back to making more!

There are 13 Picture My Life Kits available until AUGUST 31st.  here is a glimpse at two of my most favorite:  Wanderful and Seaside.


Kits come with 44 – 4" × 6" Cards (2 each of 22 designs) and 78 – 3" × 4" Cards (3 each of 26 designs)
Same cards as featured in Annual Inspirations on pages 146–149, but without Memory Protectors™ or a designed cover sheet.

These products are acid-free, lignin-free, and buffered.
