A Valentine Card and Two Card Buffets

Valentine's Day will be here before you know it.  How about the idea of making several Valentines for only $2 each (including the card, all supplies, paper pre-cut, and envelope) at my card buffets (Feb. 4 and 5)?  I like that idea! Do you?  In addition Valentines, there will be baby cards, thank you cards, all-occasion cards, wedding cards, and so much more to choose from!


These buffets will be held at my home in Springville, UT.  Dates and times to choose from are listed below. I will allow a maximum of 8 attendees at each class so there will be plenty of space for you to work.  When you call or email me to sign up (pedermom@aol.com, 801.360.9896), I'll give you the exact address. 

Dates and Times to Choose From:

  • Thursday evening, February 4 from 7 - 9 pm
  • Friday morning, February 5 from 10 am - noon
Here are a few Frequently Asked Questions:

How does a card buffet work?  Easy!  You come, you eat as much as you want (make as many cards as you want) in the time period of the buffet, and then you go home.

What do I need to bring to the buffet?  Adhesive. That's it. I supply the rest.  I suggest a regular paper adhesive of your choice, glue dots, and 3D foam tape or squares. Bring plenty of each so you don't run out!

How many cards can I make?  As many as you want in the time period. The only rule is you have to finish each card completely before you move to the next card.

How much does it cost?  You pay by the card. $2 per card, which includes envelopes. There are a few ways to get your cards for less. For every friend you register and bring with you, you get .25 off each card. So, bring 2 friends, and your cards are only $1.50 each, bring 3 and they are $1.25, and so on.  The other way is to order at the buffet. For every $25 you order (before shipping and tax), you get .25 off the card prices.  Spend $25, get your cards at $1.75 each. Spend, $50, they'll be $1.50...and so on.  Combine bringing friends and ordering and you could feasibly get your cards for FREE!!!!!

How much time will it take to make each card?  That depends on you and how quick you are. It also depends on which cards you choose.  Some cards are a little more complicated, some are simple, and there are some in between.

How many kits are there for each card?  That varies but there are plenty of cards and kits to keep everyone happy!

What does a kit consist of?  All pre-cut pieces for the card, the card base and envelope, all embellishments, and the use of any tools and supplies (other than your adhesives) that are required to put the card together.

What kinds of cards will be available?  A good variety of all-occasion cards, Valentine cards, Thank you cards, birthday cards, baby cards, wedding cards, etc.

What if I love one card and want to make several of that card?  No problem! I just ask that you take one kit of that card at a time and finish that card before you get out another one.

Is there any way to get my cards at a discount?  Yes!  There are 3 ways.
  • When you call to reserve your spot, reserve a spot for a friend that has never attended one of my classes or workshops before and I will take .25 off your $2 per card price, which will get you your cards at $1.75 each.  Bring 2 friends, get your cards for $1.50 each, and so on.
  • The other way is to order at the buffet. For every $25 you order (before shipping and tax), you get .25 off the card prices.  Spend $25, get your cards at $1.75 each. Spend, $50, they'll be $1.50...and so on.

Life is GOOD!


This past week has been a whirlwind!  It began a week ago when my friend, Amy flew in to spend a few days with me before we headed to the Close To My Heart Team Builders event in Salt Lake City.  We spent a few days just enjoying each other, then headed to Team Builders.  We spent the next 3 days at Team Builders. I returned home on Saturday evening, spent Sunday as a tour guide with my hubby for the brand new City Center temple, then had a brand new, straight from heaven grandbaby on Monday, and our twin grand'babies' turned 4 on Tuesday.

I hope you'll indulge me as I share a few of those amazing experiences with you...

Team Builders: I told you a little bit about this last week as I was preparing to go.  You can read about it here.  I love my team and enjoyed learning great leadership principles, business practices, and even took a gorgeous letting class.  Here are a few photos from Team Builders.  I'd love to have YOU join my team.  It's easy, peasy. Just click here.

All of the attendees at Team Builders

I have been very blessed with a team of hundreds that are all so very awesome.  These two ladies are my two Directors, Kimberly and Brenda and they are over the top amazing. 
After classes ended on Thursday evening, several of us went to listen to the Mormon Tabernacle Choir rehearse.  Fabulous!

The gorgeous view from our hotel room at the City Creek Marriott
Close To My Heart brought in Waffle Love for an afternoon snack on Saturday.  It was delish. Here I am with my buddies (and roomies), Michelle, Amy and Lisa.
After festivities ended on Saturday, several of us made the trek to Provo to attend the new Provo City Center Temple open house.

I got home late Saturday night, and then Sunday morning Dan the Man and I were up bright and early. We have the privilege of being tour guides for young women on Sundays for the next 2 months at the new Provo City Center Temple.  I snapped this gorgeous shot as we were walking in.




Monday was a BIG day for our family. We welcomed grandchild #6 to the world. Easton and Daysha added Baylor Aloa Pedersen to the family at 7 pm. She weighed 6 lbs. 14 oz. and was 19.5" long. She is a beauty!  We are smitten!

Meeting Baylor for the first time

Sage is already in love with her baby sister.


When I saw Baylor, I was immediately reminded of her daddy as a newborn.  Easton's pictures are top left and bottom right.  Baylor is top right and bottom left. Don't you agree they are almost twinners?
Speaking of twins...ours turned 4 on Tuesday.  Livvi and Street make me smile every day. Happy birthday, sweet grandkiddos!
Happy birthday, Street and Livvi!

Check back here on Friday for another card that will be available on my February 4-5 Card Buffets!

Team Builders with Close To My Heart



Close To My Heart holds an event in January that is just for Directors and above and cruiser earners with the company. It is an amazing event where we learn great leadership and team building strategies, and spend time together sharing ideas.  It is fabulous and I'm so excited that the 2016 Team Builders event begins tomorrow and goes through Saturday.  Eeeek! I can hardly wait! I even have 3 team members who will be attending with me!

We will be in Salt Lake City, UT.  I'm cool with that since it's just a hop, skip and a jump down the road from me. 


Not only is this event amazing, but it's a time to spend with some of my favorite CTMH friends from across the US and Canada.  It's amazing how much we learn from each other.

I love being part of a company that values it's Consultants and does so much to help us be successful. Did I mention that this event is not only held for and tailored to the leaders of the company, but it's FREE to attend?  Again,  I love being part of a company that values it's Consultants and does so much to help us be successful!  Want to join the fun of CTMH?  Click here to join my team.

Here are a few fun pictures from the last Team Builders event. Yep, those are matching jammies, courtesy of my bud, Lisa Stenz.

23 Years and a FREE Stamp Set to Celebrate!





Happy anniversary to me!  23 years ago today I embarked on my Close To My Heart journey. Little did I know then what would happen in my life because of that decision. I'm offering you a FREE stamp set today to celebrate.  Keep reading for the details.

I signed up with CTMH because I needed $600 for something I wanted to do for myself and I felt guilty taking that money out of the family budget. My goal was to earn that $600 and then move on. I earned that money in my first full month as a Consultant, but was having fun so I decided to hang around.  23 years later, here I am! I am a Senior Executive Director, have hundreds of people on my team, lead a million dollar team, have earned 13 incentive trips with the company, have won numerous awards, spoken at countless events, have even been on television, and have built a fantastic income.  WOW!  Who knew? Sometimes the journey of a lifetime just requires taking a first step. Sometimes you don't even know it will be the journey of a lifetime!

Just for fun, I decided to look in our Idea Book and see what was on page 23.   It was this awesome stamp set called "Great Job"!  Apropos, don't you think?  I'm sending this stamp set FREE to anyone who places a $50 or more order on my website today.  It will come to you directly from me, separate from your order. Your order must be placed on my website on January 12 before 11:59 pm (MT). Not exactly sure what you want to spend your $50 on?  Why not some awesome Clearance Items that have just been added to my website!
