Buttons on Side Bar Have Changed...... NEW LINKS ADDED

I wanted to let you all know that I have made a few changes to the icons on my side bar.  A few of you have let me know that you were not sure where to go to find my website to do a little shopping with me.  SO, I have changed all of my side bar photos to link directly to various parts of my website.

The Autumn/Winter 2010 Idea Book links directly to shop on my site.  If you would like to see the actual Idea Book, you can go to the Products section of my website and it will direct you to all current Idea Books.

The Studio J will direct you to the Studio J site, via my website.  Give it a try for FREE......like what you create?  You have the choice of purchasing the Layouts in several different ways.  Check it out to find out how COOL Studio J is!  

The How To Books  will link you directly to purchase the books.  Cherish, Imagine, Reflections and Magic are AWESOME books that show you step by step how to create timeless Layouts for your scrapbook pages!  Magic goes a step further by showing you how to create INTERACTIVE pages in addition to traditional pages.

The Wishes book will link you to purchase that book.  If you are a card maker then I HIGHLY recommend either Wishes OR Originals Card Programs.  Wishes is a great book for multi-card cutting dimensions.  It has 3 in all.  Originals has classic card sketches and ideas that are perfect for any occasion.

The PH. D.  Certified Badge will direct you to more info on joining my team "Creativity in Motion".  If you LOVE the products as I do, then you might want to consider becoming a consultant for Close to my Heart!!  I signed up 4 1/2 years ago and LOVE the opportunities that I have had with this business.  Close to my Heart is truly an AMAZING company and I am PROUD to be a part of it, even if it is a small part! 

LASTLY....the  Book a Party with ME directs you to the same pages as the Badge.  If you would like to host a Home Party or a Book Party, contact me to find out more details.  My home parties are SO much fun!  You have the choice for you and your guests to create a card OR a scrapbook page.  I have fun games and great prizes too.  The best part is you can host at YOUR house or MINE!  

I hope that this has helped those of you who would like to shop with me, party with me or join my team!  

Thanks SO much for stopping by!  

Happy Scrapping and Stamping!

STUDIO J.....Have you played with it yet?????

When Studio J was announced to consultants last year, I LOVED the idea of it and could not wait to be able to create pages right on my computer from ANY WHERE I had access to internet.  Especially when we were told that there would be exclusive papers and LO's that could ONLY be found on Studio J!

Well, since then I have joined the Studio J membership program and have been playing away with the awesome features and super cool LO's that are available.  With the membership when you purchase your LO's you are given jpeg files of each of your LO's.  With these I am going to be able to share my pages online!  PLUS I have downloaded a Studio J app to my iTouch so I can have the pages with me at all times to share with my friends and family!

NOW this won't replace my traditional scrapbooking/stamping and cardmaking.  BUT it will certainly supplement it.  NOT to mention that I will be able to create albums for my parents and in-laws at the SAME time!  Once I have created one 2 page LO, I can have multiples printed!  How cool is that?

With the Studio J membership I will save on the cost of each LO (50%), save on shipping (FREE one shipment per month) AND get FREE page protectors with my order!  CTMH really has made this affordable for everyone and I am SO excited to share it with you all!

Here are a few pages that I have created with my membership so far........Click on the picture to make it larger if you want to see more detail.

I have to tell you that my daughter Rachael (in the all black dress) created the above pages!  She just had her homecoming dance this last weekend and as she was showing me her pics from that night I thought about Studio J.  So, I asked if she would be interested in creating some pages using her homecoming photos and she of course said YES!  With just a bit of direction from me walking her through the process, Rachael chose her own paper, colors, and pictures.  Her favorite part of all was the black distressing on the edges of the Twilight paper.  All in all it took her less than 30 minutes to create these pages once her pictures downloaded to the server.

The above 3 pages were from a visit to the Lincoln zoo with my cousins.  This was a treat as I don't see these cousins but every 4-5 years, if we are lucky.  I LOVED the way they turned out!

Last but not least.....this was our first time eating Falafel sandwiches.  My nephew loves them and wanted the kids and I to try them too.  I LOVED them, the kids.....not so much!  I have been dying to go back and take my hubby to give it a try too.

Thanks SO much for stopping by!!  

I hope that this has inspired you to give Studio J a try!  It is FREE to sign up and create your account!  You can even create pages at no cost!  If you would like to purchase the pages that you create, you can purchase them with or without a membership.  Details are on the Studio J button on my sideline.  Check it out!!  Any questions?  Feel free to contact me!  

Happy Scrapping and Stamping!!
