BIG ANNOUNCEMENT!

OK, I know that I’m a few hours early with this BIG announcement, but I just couldn’t wait any longer! Tomorrow is AUGUST - I can’t believe the summer is half over! Things have been REALLY different in our household this year, as I have gone back to work full-time for the first time since having my children – which is why I have faltered in keeping my blog up to date! I apologize!

So without further ado (drumroll, please)…Introducing the NEW Close To My Heart Idea Book – “Annual Inspirations”!

This is completely different from our previous Idea Books in that it will be good for the entire year! From now, August 2014, through July 2015, you can order and enjoy the products in “Annual Inspirations”. IN ADDITION, there will also be two supplemental Idea Books, released one at a time – one in December and one in April. They will each be good for four months, and will feature ONLY NEW, seasonally-inspired products. I tell you, I cannot wait to see the “Seasonal Expressions” books after seeing “Annual Inspirations”!

“Annual Inspirations” features:

• Nine new My Reflections™ Paper Packs with coordinating Complements, assortments & stamp sets – most with a coordinating Workshop on the Go or a Workshop on the Go Card-Making Kit
• Another NEW Cricut® Cartridge – “Artfully Sent” – which is solely based on card-making. With it, you can create 250 complete cards and 150 other small projects!
• Five brand new COLORS
• New Hostess Rewards Stamp Sets and Stamps of the Month
• The “Cut Above™” Line – features treat bag and card kits that have all of the pieces pre-cut for you and are ready to stamp & assemble.
• “Designer Creations” line – fun, 3-D gift items.
• Five new “Picture My Life™” programs
• Three NEW “My Crush™” Books!
• Three new “Designed Décor” pieces
• Eight new additions to the “Base & Bling” line
• NEW embellishments, NEW ribbons, NEW Washi Tape – Oh My!
• New tools, new adhesives, new Markers, and a Score Board!

Seriously, this is the best Idea Book to come down the pike in a long time.

And this month’s Stamp of the Month – ADORABLE! It’s called “What a Hoot”, and here’s what you get:

And here are the two cards I made with it (so far…):

How cute! The first card uses one of the BRAND NEW paper packs - "Snowhaven", while the second makes use of our BRAND NEW markers.

I can't wait to show you more! If you would like your very own copy of Annual Inspirations, be sure to come to my next workshop or my Open House - details on both coming soon.
