May Happenings with Close To My Heart!

IT'S HERE!!!!!
Happy May!
Happy National Scrapbook Month!

The start of a new month is always exciting and fun and this merry month of May will not disappoint!
The NEW! Seasonal Expressions 2 Idea Book went live on May 1st.  This 60 page publication is overflowing with top quality, trendy, classic and oh so fabulously fun papers, stamp sets, embellishment, kits, and wonderful artwork.  You can view this Idea book on my website HERE.  You can also contact me to request your own personal copy (trust me-you want this resource for your collection).  You will refer to it for inspiration long after it retires in August!  The publication is FREE (my treat to you).  Postage will be charged if I am mailing your book to you.

LIVE, LAUGH, LOVE!
This is the name of the May Stamp of the Month.

This set of 9 images is perfect for scrapbooking and card making.  Those who love to color will love adding color to these images.  And those who are not big on coloring can also find joy creating with this set, as it looks beautiful just stamping the images and not coloring.  Embossing the images onto colored cardstock is another great way to use this stamp set.  The options are endless!

Here is a layout I created using this set.  I actually cut the letters our individually (the word "LIVE" is one big stamp, the world "LOVE" is another big stamp, as is the word "LAUGH").  The letters are so big that cutting them out is very simple and quick to do.  I colored one set of "L,"I", "V" and "E"with my dark brown shin han twin touch marker-just colored right over the flowers in each letter.  Then I actually colored the flowers in all the other letters.  I "shadowed layered"the letters to make them stand out.  Click HERE to order.

May is National Scrapbook Month.  Close To My Heart has created a GORGEOUS Paper pack, stamp set and a Cut Above Scrapbook Kit in honor of this special month.

LIVE BEAUTIFULLY CUT ABOVE SCRAPBOOK KIT

This kit allows you to easily make coordinating layouts to preserve your favorite memories. The Live Beautifully Layout Kit comes with everything you need to create five two-page layouts.  With pre-printed base pages, die-cut paper pieces, stickers, and gold foil accents, this kit will help you preserve moments that matter most in practically no time at all!

You can purchase just the kit OR you can take advantage of a Bundle that gives you a 20% discount!  This bundle comes with the kit I described above as well as, a 12 x 12 album (you choose the style-post bound or d-ring binder), a black journaling pen and adhesive! Click HERE

The exclusive Live Beautifully Stamp set is a set of 8 images.  The roses are beautiful.  I especially LOVE the "word" and sentiment images.  I have and will continue to use the stamp set for many many projects! Click HERE to order

And...if this all isn't enough, CTMH has packaged up a Live Beautiful Paper Pack, as well.  This is perfect for the card makers and paper crafters!  This paper pack consists of 16 sheets, 2 each of 6 double-sided designs and 2 each of single-sided gold designs.  Click HERE to order.

Happy Merry Month of May!

24-HOUR FLASH SALE!

Close to My Heart  is hosting a 24 Hour Flash Sale on my website HERE.  It started 5:00 p.m. (eastern standard time) yesterday and runs until this afternoon at 5:00.  This is just a sampling of the see of the fabulous deals you can take advantage of!  Products and bundles are available only while supplies last so don't delay!

A Grand Opportunity!

There are so many wonderful things happening with Close to My Heart during this month of April.  Rather than share it all with you in the same email, I thought it would be more exciting to sprinkle the goodness to you one morsel at a time!

So here's my next tidbit of info for you:

APRIL IS THE BEST MONTH TO SIGN UP AS A CTMH CONSULTANT, AND HERE'S WHY ...

- Everyone who signs up in April will be a consultant receiving a minimum of a 22% discount at least until the end of September (the usual 6 months). Of course you will want to stay past that (and it's easy to do!), but that much is guaranteed.

- Anyone who signs up in April can order from FIVE different idea books in that time frame. There will be two annual catalogs and three seasonal mini-catalogs available from April to September (last month of Expressions 1, Expressions 2, Holiday Expressions, 2016-17 Annual Idea Book and 2017-18 Annual Idea Book!).

- New consultants get to start ordering from the new product in Expressions 2 at a discount in April vs. waiting until May and paying full price as a customer.

-New consultants get to start ordering Live Beautifully items NOW.

- Consultants who sign up in April get a FREE Cut Above kit of their choice.  This product is the PERFECT KIT to use when introdicing CTMH to your potential customers.  It's Fast. It's Easy. It's super affordable.  It's Fabulous. It's FUN!

- Consultants who sign up in April still have an opportunity to sign up for convention (registration closes April 30).

- Consultants who sign up in April get Seasonal Expressions 2 catalogs in their kit. This gives them an opportunity to get people excited about the May product release...BECAUSE, in May, when a hostess submits $350 in orders she gets a FREE Live Beautifully Cut Above kit. More FREEEEEEEEE stuff. Not to mention that at that level of sales there's one half priced item and $60 in FREE product. There's also $5 put in the New Consultant's SPC "bank account" when you reach $350 in sales (and it goes up to $25 at $400!). Did you know that Consultants can also be hostesses? SCORE!

-Consultants who sign up in April give themselves the BEST chance at a really strong start with many excited hostesses for gatherings in May because of the May specials! You have April to book up that calendar for May and insure GREAT sales, which equals a GREAT start!

Are you intrigued?  Interested?  Do you have any questions?  Reach out to me so we can chat!  It would be a true honor if you would join my Close To My Heart Family!

Smiles,

Amy

15 Minute Memories!

April Greetings!

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and your week is off to a great start!
The other day I sent out information about my all day "LIVE BEAUTIFULLY" event I am hosting here at my studio on May 21st. I hope y'all had a chance to read the details and will plan to participate. Register early to hold your spot!
To all those unable to attend the event, I am offering Kits To Go!

This evening I am sharing information about a super cool special that is happening during the month of April. It's called "15-MINUTE MEMORIES"...and it's perfect for the seasoned memory keeper, as well as, the beginner scrapbookers and those wanting to get started on preserving some special memories. It's also spot on for card makers and paper crafters of all levels. This special is also for ALL AGES! 

Back in January Close To My Heart introduced a fabulous new kit. The CUT ABOVE layout kits make it super easy to document the moments in life that you always want to remember. Easy-to-follow instructions guide you in using pre-cut pieces to assemble pages as beautiful as your memories. Slide additional photos into pocket pages alongside coordinating cards to keep the story going. Preserving your memories can be easy and beautiful at the same time with Cut Above!

There are currently 2 Cut Above Kits to purchase. And BOTH kits are on sale 50% off the entire month of April! The "Little One" Cut Above Kit has a baby boy look and feel to it. However, I used this kit to document some photos of my teenager ballerina! I love how truly versatile CTMH products are!

The second kit available is called "Forever & Always" . This has a wedding theme to it. But it is also very apprpriate for prom, dance recital/competition, Easter, Mother's Day, Birthday, Family photo shoot, sorority function, First Communion, Confirmation. picnic and so much more!

The pieces you receive in these kits will also allow you to create one-of-a-kind cards! The possibilities are endless!

Each Kit Includes:
*2 12 x 12 printed base pages
*Die-Cut Paper Pieces
*Title and Embellishment stickers
*12 Coordinating pocket cards
*2 12 x 12 Memory Protectors
*2 Pocket-Style Memory Protector

You get all of this for just $7.48 (plus s/t)!!!!! These kits are normally priced at $14.95.

Choose you kit (why not get BOTH kits since they are 50% off this month) and then follow the simple assembly instructions to create your beautiful two-age layout in minutes. Add even more memories using the coordinating pocket cards and pocket memory protectors included in the kit. You are going to LOVE how quickly you can preserve your memories with Cut Above!

Here is the layout I created using dance photos of my daughter.

Your name will go into a drawing for a NEW CUT ABOVE KIT that is coming out in MAY for each kit you purchase this month. There are two new kits coming in May that you can choose from if your name it drawn (must have a minimum of 10 kits sold for the drawing to take place). Drawing will take place on May 1st. Winner will be notified via email. 

You can order your kit(s) on my website (amy.closetomyheart.com). Be sure to click on the box "JOIN" when you get to my website. This enters you into the Mystery Hostess Drawing! Please send me an email when you do so I can put your name into the drawing (your name will go in for every kit your purchase). If you would like me to place your order for you, just let me know. 

Here is a quick video showing you how quickly and beautifully the Cut Above Kits come together.

Smiles,
Amy
