Love Life…

Howdy Candies…I have lots of NEW exciting things to share today!  First up is the CC2C challenge #13 from StudioL3.  Now it’s been a bitty since I’ve worked one for them & I truly wanted to partake in the last few that have taken place but as each day passes lately, it seems like something new & exciting is happening & I’m not gonna lie…I’m Loving Life!  There is something to be said for Tim Holtz Compendium of Curiosities, Vol. 2 that I just LOVE.  Perhaps it’s because he autographed it & I adore his snippets of fabulous techniques or maybe it’s just that when I create from it I tend to feel inspired to do more.  Whatever that reason is, it’s allowing me to mix my mediums & enjoy heARTistry.  

In the midst of this lovely piece I had in mind my ‘Stretch Your Stamps’ course yesterday & one of my CC101 FB Group challenges that’s a BONUS one for this month that is available only to Student Body members that have taken Tim’s online ‘Creative Chemistry’ course.  I used a mix of techniques but the base is apart of what CC2C is all about & the added bonuses are from what I learned in the book as well as the new online course I’m taking.  Hold on to your seats…there is more to share!  So without further ado Photos: (To leave a comment, thoughts, suggestions, or feedback - just click the title to this post & scroll to the bottom)

Loving Life really does describe what I’m living at the moment because what I haven’t talked about in a while is my Close To My Heart Business!!!  This last week I’m usually joining my CTMH Sisters in our annual convention.  This year it just so happened to be in Dallas!  WhooHoo feel like kickin’ up my heals & doing the two-step.  Whilst I am, because I’m truly excited to share something. 

While I didn’t get to go this year because I’m headed back to South Dakota to visit my Family & Friends I still received my 5 year tenure charm in the mail.  Trust me it is no easy feat to maintain an active status with all of the things that happen in life & last year I unexpectedly had a mild stroke during our general session…I thought for sure I wasn’t going to be able to keep up with my business.  Thanks to YOU & my oober supportive Family & Friends…I still made it to a major milestone with the company that is so near & dear to my heart & I just have to share it!

It doesn’t stop there because there is tons of news to share & it’s all starting on August 1st!  Your not going to want to miss out on a single thing because I’m going to be on the road over my Birthday & sharing this incredible company that has transformed my life!  Here is a snippet or preview so to speak of just a couple of things that I know your going to love…: NEW Consultant Kit!  Talk about doing a two-step & a YeeHaw now joining Team Creatique Candy is never been easier.  It costs only $49 for an (Essentials) kit that includes some Fabby products to get you started with your business.  We also have our (Master) kit for only $99. 

Bonus is that if you sign-up on my team in August you can get this really cool Damask style bag FREE to store all your items you need to represent YOU in your Journey as an Independent Consultant with CTMH.  Check it out: (Photo Links to Consultant Info on my web-site)

For more Details about my experience, leadership, & story along with all the information you need to download, print, & dream about my team is located on the tab above!  Awesome isn’t it? 

Of course it doesn’t stop there because we have now another Fantabulous Cricut cartridge with more 3-D project abilities & it matches so many of our My Acrylix stamp sets, Dimensional Elements, & more…available August 1st Cricut “ARTISTE” Collection!  Check it out: (Photo Links to Cricut Info on my web-site)

If your over the moon about these lil gems then your going to love that we now offer just 42 colors in our color palette that also include alcohol based markers for shading & pigment inks too & all of our cardstock colors come in packages of 24, so much bang for your buck!  Plus it doesn’t stop there…I will now be offering 2 other types of Workshops for Home Décor & Cards!!! 

Plus we have made some drastic changes to our exclusive StudioJ online Scrapbooking Studio, NO more Memberships!  That’s right…now each 2 page lay-out is now just only $6.95 which is just $3.50 a page.  Really cool for me because I tend to take hundreds of photos and without StudioJ they just sit on my camera card.  Well with the new Express Collections I can upload my images FREE & just drop them in the photo wells, do a little journaling & poof I have a completed pages for an album delivered right to my doorstep!  Just head on over to my Candy Basket & check out StudioJ for more information. The quality is just priceless I have to admit so I’m giddy to get going on some treasures made after my trip home. 

I hope you’ve enjoyed some of the snippets that are coming your way very soon & appreciate more than words your endurance of all this great information.  Thanks for Stamping By…
