Heart 2 Heart "Color Me Happy"

This week H2H is challenging us to use colors that make you "Happy"  I love anything with RED.  My car is red, my phone is red... There are not a lot of Reds in the CTMH papers, but I did find some in the Tommy Paper Pack. 

Since I am on my way to the CTMH Convention at Disney World in Florida, I am posting two cards I already made this month.  They both were made using "Tommy".

 

 

Close to My Heart Convention

In 2 days I will be on my way to Walt Disney World for the Close to My Heart Convention with 2 of my good friends, Susan and Lisa! Here we are doing the Happy Dance!

 I am so excited because this is the first CTMH Convention I am attending! The last time I was at Walt Disney World in Orlando was 1996.  I'm sure things have changed quite a bit since then. 

I am especially excited to be able to see all the new CTMH products that will become available in August and to be able to share this experience with my friends and 2000 other CTMH Consultants.  Gotta go pack!  But while I am gone, if you need to place an order be sure to visit My Website.

H2H Photo Inspiration

This week at Heart 2 Heart they are having a "Photo Inspiration" Challenge. The photo is of a Vintage Bird Cage as you will see on the Heart 2 Heart Blog.

Below is the card I made with the Close to My Heart Stamp Set "Hello Tweety" and their Chantilly Paper Pack.

WORKSHOP LAYOUTS for JULY

I have been working on some layouts for a Summer Workshop I plan to have at my house.  Right now the date looks like it will be Friday July 26, at 6:30 pm..  My garage is currently under construction but hopefully will be completed for us to work out there for our Summer Workshop. Below are 4 of the 5 pages we will be making. **Anyone who emails me to reserve a spot at the JULY workshop AND comments on this post will receive a free Close to My Heart Petite Perks Stamp Set**  and will also get to be first to sign up for the Christmas Card Workshop.  (Space is limited)

Page 1 & 2 will be made with one of my favorite papers from CTMH, Buzz and Bumble! (Please excuse my "notes" on the 2nd page, I forgot to take them off when taking the picture)   [Click on pictures to enlarge]

Page 3 & 4 will be made with another favorite of mine, For Always!

 

 

Page 5 will be a surprise. But I can give you a hint... It will be perfect for your July photos and will have space to fit lots of them on just 1 page!

 

Now for the BEST part of all... At this workshop you will be able to preview the NEW Close to My Heart Idea Book for Autumn/Winter 2013! (Not that we want to think about Autumn and Winter just yet) but seeing the new CTMH products is always exciting! So don't forget to email me to sign up AND leave your comments here!

This week at Heart 2 Heart we have been challenged to use Buttons.  What better way than on a Baby Card?

Raindrops Keep Falling . . .

April's showers inspire us this week at Heart2Heart Challenge. I used Chantilly paper and the Happy Thoughts and Card Chatter - Birthday Stamp Sets for this card.  I made it for a very creative friend who has a birthday in April.

Erie County Fair 2012

I am still trying to get caught up on my layouts for 2012.  This one is from August 2012, the Erie County Fair.  I was there twice last summer.  Once to set up a Close to My Heart Booth in the Arts &  Crafts Building, the second time was just for fun! I will have my booth set up again this year on Saturday August 10th.  Stop by to say hello and pick up a new Idea Book!
