March Specials with Close To My Heart

This is definitely March Madness! The specials this month are marvelously mad!

1.  STAMPAGANZA!!! (March 1-31)
2.  March Stamp of the Month (March 1-31)
--------------

1.  STAMPAGANZA!!!:  Yes, I'm yelling...in a good way!  Seriously, this special only comes around every few years, so NOW is the time to take advantage of it (and if you do by 11:59 pm on March 5, your order can count toward my cruise special too!).

During March, order two stamp sets and get a third set of equal or lesser value free. You and your customers can qualify for multiple free stamp sets on a single order, but the free stamp sets will always be the lowest-priced sets on the order. Stamp of the Month sets, Hostess Rewards sets, and the Animal Greetings stamp set are excluded from this special offer.   Buy 2, get 1 free. Buy 4, get 2 free. Buy 6, get 3 free...and so on!  Head on over to my website and start ordering!

Wondering what stamp sets would be awesome ones to choose? I'll share a few sets that I just can't live without.

You could buy this one (did you notice this set is also featured in the graphic at the top of this post?  That's because it's a must have!):

and this one:

 

and get this one FREE!

When ordering on my website, just enter all of the stamp sets you want and before you check out the lowest price set(s) will be zeroed out on your total.  Easy, peasy.  

2.  March Stamp of the Month - Sunshine Birdies:  This fun, springy set is great for cards and layouts alike (like the one at the top of this post created by the oh-so-talented Close To My Heart Art Department)!  It's only $5 ($12.95 savings) with every $50 you order (before shipping and tax).  Order $100, get 2...and so on.

Starting on Monday, I'll be sharing artwork I've created with this set each Monday, all month long.

When ordering on my website, you'll be prompted to add your set(s) before checking out.  This set of 11 includes sentiments, cute little bird stamps, a sun, branch, a few butterflies, and some musical notes. That's a lot of bang for your five bucks, I'd say!  Click here to be taken to the set on my website.

February Specials with Close To My Heart

Birthday card I created with the February Stamp of the Month - Balloon Animals.  Notice how I used the sentiment label to create an awesome hexagon patterned paper just by stamping it as a pattern?  Nifty!

I used my handy 3-D foam tape to pop up that cute pink elephant.  It just adds a little dimension to the card, and makes him even more of the focal point!

A FREE Gift From Me and an Artbooking Layout

I'm excited to share a layout today that was primarily made with the Artbooking Cartridge and the stamp set called Reel Life.  As you know, if you sign up to be a New Consultant in April (that's NOW!) you get a FREE Cricut Cartridge of your choice. As I mentioned before, the Artbooking cartridge was the cartridge primarily used on this fun layout.

SIGN UP ON MY TEAM TODAY (Friday, April 11) THROUGH Tuesday (April 15) on my website and I will send you this set FREE! No strings attached.

Let's do the math:  Sign up ($99...and you get $308 in products and supplies in your kit) + Get a FREE Cricut Cartridge ($99 value) + get this stamp set FREE from me = $418 in products and supplies for only $99!

In "addition" (since we are on the subject of Math), if you sell $1200 in product in your first 90 days, Close To My Heart will refund your $99 kit cost in cash! TALK ABOUT NO RISK! What are you waiting for?

Here are a few fun detail shots of this layout:

One of my favorite cuts on the Artbooking Cartridge is this "torn" piece of notebook paper. I also love the arrows!

There's that fun 'torn notebook paper' again!

Another fun set that I used on this layout is All the Details

I can't wait to have YOU join my team!

Artbooking Video Tutorial and a FREE Cricut Cartridge

I'm sure you're all aware that if you join my team this month, you get your choice of one our Cricut Collections ($99) FREE!!!!!!! Here's a little video tutorial using the Artbooking Cartridge. What are you waiting for? Head on over to my website to join! More information about the special is in this post.

Balloon Talk Layout

Have you heard about the specials this month?  No?  GASP!!!!!  You have to read about them. One of them involves a FREE Cricut cartridge. No joke!  In fact, this week I'll be sharing some pages I made with the Artbooking cartridge, so be sure to check back for those.

Today, I thought I'd focus on the CUTER than CUTE April Stamp of the Month (Balloon Talk). This set is cute.  Wait, I already said that. Did I mention it's cute?  It is!  See?  Even cooler is the fact that this set is worth $17.95, is only available in April, and it can be yours for only $5 with a $50 order. Don't worry, if you are ordering on my website, you'll be prompted to add it before you check out.

I made this 12" x 12" one-page layout using a combination of 2 paper packs (Sarita and Lollydoodle) and used some happy colors of ink pads too. I love the way the colors each stand on their own, yet compliment each other. I also love how all of that fun color looks against a black and white photo.  Isn't this a sweet photo of Easton and Sage. It melts my heart every time!

Here are a few detail shots of the layout.  As you can see, I did pop several things up with some 3D tape. I love the interest that adds to a page.  The supplies (photos and links) are at the bottom of the post for your convenience.
