April 20th- Getting Ready for Fundraiser Party

I'm hosting a party on May 2nd to celebrate National Scrapbooking Day and to raise money for Operation Smile, the charity that CTMH sponsers. Volunteer Medical teams working with Operation Smile can perform a life changing surgery to correct facial deformities for about $240 a surgery. I've set a goal of raising $500 this year....so if you are interested in helping, you can:
1) Host a party as a percentage of all stamp set sales is donated to Operation Smile
2) Place an order, and round up your order to the next dollar, five dollars or Ten dollars...whatever fits for you! for example if your order totals 24.50, round it up to $25 or $30.
3) Share my blog or website with your friends so that they can do 1 or 2!

How easy is that!

If you are interested in ordering, without having a party, please go to my website at www.memryscrpr.myctmh.com or if you would like to schedule a party or book show, contact me here or through my website!

Thanks for stopping by!

National Scrapbooking Month Contest - CTMH

To celebrate National Scrapbooking Month, Close To My Heart is sponsoring a contest that anyone can enter! And it is easy to enter - just submit a JPEG photo of an original two-page layout you have created that represents YOU! Be sure to tell us what is happening in the layout, and why this highlights you, your life, or your personality. The Close To My Heart judges will then review all the entries and select five finalists for each category. The finalists will be reposted for you to view. The winners of each category will be determined by comments left or votes from blog viewers. Each winner will receive $150 US retail in fabulous Close To My Heart products!

Birthday card and Halloween layout

OK...I know it's a bit late for halloween, but ...
First, all papers, inks and stamps are CTMH. the card is made from the Key to My Heart paper pack that is no longer available, but I so love the colors. The stamp sets are With Love and Boutique Borders. Inks: Tulip, Juniper, Sorbet and Lilac Mist





This Halloween layout uses the Enchanted Level 2 papers, Thickers chipboard letters in Black, 3 brads (unknown source as they were given to me), 3-d foam squares to pop some pictures.
I still need to complete the labeling.



Here is a closer look at the left page:


and the right:

More pictures are coming!

I went to a crop most of yesterday and created a few layouts that I'm very happy with. However I haven't had time to upload them yet. So...check back and Hopefully either tomorrow or Tuesday I'll get a few of them uploaded!

another Layout

I know, it's a shock..a 2nd layout in one week! Don't get too comfortable though as I 'm not sure I'll be keeping up at this level.



This Layout was made again with all Close to My Heart products. That's Amore level 2, and LoveAlways journaling spots. The stamp is from a promotional set w/purchase that Close to My Heart gave in February. The bling are clear sparkles, also Close to My Heart.

I can't believe over a month has gone by...

and I haven't posted anything new....guess I better get my act together! So, here is a layout I did of my daughter's 13ths birthday...it's only a year late, but it's done. All supplies used except the "1" and "3" are Close to my Heart products. The numbers are Tim Holtz's grungeboard numerals, from the Idea-ology line. The papers are from the Level 2 That's Amore paper kit (x7107b), and I used tulip ink to make the border. The stamps are from the Believe in Your Dreams stamp set (B1322). I also used one of the cardstock Love Always Journaling Spots (x1407), and chocolate grosgrain ribbon(this was part of a promotion and not in the current catalog). You can see these items at my website: www.memryscrpr.myctmh.com Click on products and choose the spring 2009 catalog.


Oh..I forgot I also used a photo clip (Z292) and a bit of bling with the small gem circle...
