Memories in the Making!

Memories in the Making Deluxe Workshop Kit
24 Page Scrapbook Kit
REGISTER ON/BEFORE SEPTEMBER 26th
Close To My Heart declared September to be National Stamping Month many years ago. Each year CTMH comes out with a limited kit to celebrate this stamping month. This month’s kit features the Memories in the Making Cut Above® layout kit and two exclusive stamp sets. Use the layout kit to create 13 single 12" x 12" pages, or add a few additional products to turn these pages into a calendar. 
There are several options to this kit.
You can purchase the whole “kit and caboodle” as I call it. 
$70.41- This kit gives you a 30% discount!
This includes the Memories in the Making LayoutKit, the Calendar, and the two exclusive stamp sets; Memories in the Making Days Stamp Set and Memories in the Making Months Stamp Set.
You can also purchase just the Memories in the Making Layout Kit ($35: a 20% discount)
(does not include the calendar or stamp sets).
There is also a bundle for just the two stamp sets for $43.84
(a 20% discount).
These prices include shipping and tax.
Or you can purchase the stamp sets individually.
Like the past 2 years, I will be offering a DELUXE Calendar kit. This provides you with all the paper and additional Cricut Cuts to create a coordinating page to the calendar. This will allow you to tear the calendar page off the calendar on the last day of the month and slip it into a page protector next to the coordinating page. You will have your entire year album complete BEFORE the New Year begins! This kit makes for FABULOUS gifts, whether you assemble it OR give the kit as a gift (purchase multiple kits and give as gifts)!
I will be offering this as a workshop in January 2019. Your calendar can be created for 2020 OR you can create for 2019 if you do not already have a 2019 calendar. We will complete the calendar album over a period of 4 classes (3 months at each class.)
Here is my DELUXE version of the calendar kit made into 12 double layouts. The pages are not month-specific, which allows you to arrange them however you want as layouts or as calendar pages. Thank you to fellow consultant, Julie Carriere , for sharing her creativity with me. I love how these pages came together. I am in love with the Monthly Banners and I like that the pages can be used on any months you choose! The icons on the monthly banners can be remove once the month is over and added to a card front and presto....you have a one-of-a-kind card
The DELUXE Kit (117.00) consists of:
*The Making Memories Calendar Kit with Stamp Sets
*44 additional sheets of cardstock
*12 monthly calendar title banners
*use of my ink pads (if you come to the in-person class)

NEW! Shaker Card and Disney Kit!

Wednesday Greetings!

Thank you to all who joined me last night in my private Facebook Group for the Holiday Expressions Idea Book Walk Through.  I so enjoyed sharing all the wonderful products in this new Idea Book!  I especially enjoyed demonstrating how to make a fun shaker card using the new Shaker Card Thin Cuts, Loose Sequins, and the Stamp of the Month.  If you were not able to join us last night, the video is on the private Facebook page and can be viewed whenever you want and as many times as you want.  If you haven't requested to be added to the page and would like to be, send me a message and I will be happy to add you.  I did announce a couple of specials last night that do not end until tomorrow evening (Thursday, September 6th at 9:00 p.m.).  The shaker card can be found on my blog (for some reason I am not able to post it to this message).



I have a handful of pretty fun kits and classes lined up and CTMH had several specials happening all month long.  .  To not overwhelm you, I will be highlighting one thing each day or every other day.  I hope you will find some things that interest you!
