What's better than the top quality products in our Close to my Heart Idea Books? It's the fun, fresh and trendy goodies we get to give away with our Constant Campaigns!
What's a constant campaign? It's a special offer or package brought to you by CTMH. Sometimes it's a special paper pack or stamp set. Sometimes, it's a great deal, like this month's Art of Business promotion. No matter what it is, it's a great opportunity to get excited and have fun with CTMH. And it's always a special value that's worth sharing.
As a consultant, it's a great way to keep things fresh and new ... for ourselves and our customers. It's CTMH's way of supporting our business, and giving us new reasons to talk to our customers regularly.
And let me tell you, my customers LOVE the constant campaigns! As a consultant, you'll get the opportunity to get your hands on the products early. You can even plan a workshop around it, to help your customers get the most from whatever's being offered.

I'm getting ready for a fun crop night with some great ladies and I realized I didn't post any artwork from my Birthday crop. So here are two layouts using the (now retired) Buzz & Bumble Workshop on the Go. I used the same layout sketch for both, but they still look distinct ... and buzz-tastic!
I'm often asked what I like best about being a CTMH consultant. There really isn't just one reason! But the first reason that comes to mind is the main reason why I joined in the first place: I wanted to work from home and have the flexibility to be there for my family whenever they needed me.
Nine years ago, I gave birth to my second son, and going back to the Corporate world was not something I wanted to do. I wanted to be home, and I wanted to do something I loved. It didn't take me long to find Close to my Heart and instantly, I knew it was the solution for me.
With CTMH, you are your own boss. You set your own hours, you choose how much or how little you want to work. It's flexible and it's rewarding.
I also liked that CTMH didn't dictate HOW I ran my business. I could choose to do home gatherings, or not. I could do workshops, or not. I could host retreats ... or NOT! It was totally up to me. So long as I met my quarterly minimums of just $300, the business was mine to create, build, and recreate if needed.
And over the past nine years, my business has had to change. I've had to adapt it and move parts around to fit with my life. But that's ok. I've had the flexibility to make it happen. So when I say you can build your business, your way, I mean it. And I've done it. It works for me, because I want to be here for these guys:

Such beautiful and classy colours to play with this week at Color My Heart's Color Dare! I am falling more and more in love with Ivy Lane each and every day ... so when we were asked to use those colours in this week's challenge, I was more than happy to oblige!
Take a look below at my creation ... a beautiful birthday card ... and go to the Color Dare blog to see what the other Design Team gals have come up with.

Here's the birthday card I created for someone special in my life. I was also inspired by the sketch on the Crafty Canadians' Facebook page.
SUPPLIES:
- Ivy Lane Green and Ivy Lane Purple cardstock
- Ivy Lane B&T papers
- Heartfelt Birthday Wishes stamp M1033
- Doodle Signs Hostess Reward Stamp A1158
- Pansy Purple (retired) and Hollyhock ink
- Black Small Sparkle Flourishes
Now it's your turn! Create something with the Ivy Lane colours and post it for your chance to WIN!!! Share your creation on the Color Dare blog. I look forward to seeing what you come up with.

It's been a slower week for me, which is a refreshing break, but I've had trouble finding my mojo. Good thing that the Crafty Canadians had this great sketch for a challenge.
The other "catch" to this challenge, as it was first posted just before St. Patrick's Day, is to include the colour GREEN somewhere on the card.
I needed to make some birthday cards and this challenge really helped me out. Here's the first one:
This card uses the CTMH paper pack "Lollydoodle". If you saw the whole pack, you'd think Girly Girl, all the way! But you can also turn it around (or turn it over, as our patterned papers are DOUBLE SIDED!) and use it for boys too. This adorable card will be finding its way to my sweet nephew Trent, who will be turning THREE on Monday.
SUPPLIES:
And here's a second card to celebrate with:
Of all the cards I made today, I think this one is my favourite. I love the motion that the stamped arrows create, and the colour combo is unusual but so pretty. These are Ivy Lane colours and papers and I am falling more and more in love with this paper pack every day. And I finished it off with an Ivy Lane tulle flower and some purple sparkle gems. So pretty.

Winter simply refuses to leave us here in Ontario, but that doesn't mean we cannot dream of sunshine and warm breezes.

MY PROJECT:
Feeling the sunshine with Picture My Life "Surf's Up"
 |
| Every PML kit comes with a cover page to start you off! I added some stamps and embellishments too! |
Almost three years ago, we started a huge project in our backyard -- the installation of an inground pool for our family. Dubbed "The Great Big Hole Project", this adventure lasted most of the summer, from the installation of the pool itself,to the landscaping, to enjoying, at last, the oasis we created.
Naturally, I took TONS of photos of this project. And I wanted to document the adventure in scrapbook form, but it was overwhelming -- so many pictures, so many stages. So when Picture My Life was introduced, I knew it was the answer I was looking for. This album took mere HOURS to complete and I'm so happy with how it turned out.
 |
| The back of the cover page looks just like it was made up of cards! Washi tape, stamped images and more add some pizzazz! |

| Cards and photos combine to tell your story. I rounded the corners of my photos to mirror the shape of the cards. |
 |
| It's amazing just how many photos you can use and showcase with a PML kit. It's really so much fun! |
 |
| Don't forget to TELL your story. Journaling cards are an important part of PML kits and are so easy to use! |
It's not finished yet -- I still have a few more photos to add, and I plan to intermingle some traditional scrapbooking layouts in with the PML pages to make this into a real keepsake for my family. Long live the Great Big Hole -- I can't wait to get into it again this summer!

It's time for Color My Heart's Color Dare #85 and this week, we're featuring some lovely, warm colours: Autumn Terracotta, Barn Red, Hollyhock and Olive. Though I would traditionally think of these colours as more Autumn-ish, the Design Team has done a great job to show that they can be used in such a beautiful variety of ways.
My Project: Flamingo Wall Canvas
This photo was taken at the Metro Toronto Zoo last year when I went with my son's Grade 2 class. The flamingos were so stunning with their colours just POPPING against the early spring greens and browns. I feel like the paper colours help the flamingo jump off the page.
Each of these shapes were cut using the fabulous Artbooking and Artiste Cricut cartridges. They created some great textures that worked perfectly on this canvas.
The stamps were from the Frosted Workshop on the Go. Again -- this is a great example of how something can be designed for one season, but used for another.
Lastly, I embellished with some green epoxy bubbles. They add just the right amount of shine to this canvas.
I'm not sure yet where I'm going to hang this but I love how it turned out.
Now it's your turn! Take these colours and get creative! Then post it on the Color Dare blog and show off what you made!

This week at ColorMy Heart's Color Dare, we are showcase some very springlike colours with the Skylark paper pack. It's so bright and pretty -- though you could easily do some boyish stuff with it too!
I chose to do a 1-page layout for this challenge. It was a great way to use up scraps from my Skylark Workshop on the Go.
The colours are so bright and fresh. I can't wait to find just the right photos for this page.
Now it's your turn!
Use this colour combo – Lagoon, Sweet Leaf, Juniper and Skylark Yellow – to create something
happy, and enter to win at ColorMy Heart's Color Dare!

This week at Color
My Heart's Color Dare, we have a soft and warm colour combo to challenge
you: Blush, Sorbet and Juniper. I love these colours together, and the Design
Team has done some wonderful stuff with them!
Here is my card, a birthday card for someone very special.
This card is a combination of new and old. I used basic cardstock, but added in some
B&T from the Chantilly pack (old) and from Lollydoodle (new). I love how I can combine past and present and
know that they will coordinate perfectly!
I also used one of our brand new embossing folders to emboss
a Quatrefoil pattern on the Sorbet piece.
I sanded it just a bit to give it some more pop.
The stamp set is a new one:
“Belated Birthday”, which is perfect for me, since I’m forever sending
cards late – even though I DO think of you lots on your actual birthday. :) And I accented with Aqua Dots and Flamingo Dots -- just enough bling to finish it off.
Now it's your turn! Use this colour combo – Blush, Sorbet and Juniper – to create something special, and enter to win at Color My Heart's Color Dare!

Stargazing with Timberline
Timberline is a WONDERFUL paper theme, great for camping and outdoor adventures. Very rugged, very rustic, very outdoorsy. But I wanted to show that you can use Timberline for SO MUCH MORE! So I created this one-page layout, using leftovers from the Timberline WOTG, and added in some Aquadots. I just love how it turned out.
(And in case you're wondering who that cutie pie in the photo is, it's ME! My Dad was an amateur photographer, complete with backdrops and dark room, and for my first two years of life, I was his favourite subject)
Keep on Hopping!
Your next stop on the hop is the amazing Rosalynd Kelly's "In my Scrappin' Room" blog.

I have recently been welcomed into a new Facebook group called the Crafty Canadians. It's a great place to meet and share things with other gals from across our country.
This month, they announced a layout challenge, and I was happy to play along.
The challenge? Create a card or layout using this sketch:
And here's what I came up with:
This layout uses papers and embellishments from the brand new Close to my Heart theme, Skylark. It's a beautiful design that inspires thoughts of spring ... which I can NOT wait for. And this layout was a great opportunity for me to scrapbook my best friend Barb. She means the world to me and we have such good times together.
See the bitty bow on the title? That's from our new Base & Bling collection! It's great for making necklaces, but can ALSO be used on layouts and cards too.
Want to see more from the new CTMH Spring and Summer Idea Book? Join me on my Facebook page for my online launch party on Tuesday, February 4 from 7-9 pm, or in-person at my home on Thursday, Feb. 6 from 1-3pm or 7-9pm. Please RSVP at justscrapit.ctmh@gmail.com

See the bitty bow on the title? That's from our new Base & Bling collection! It's great for making necklaces, but can ALSO be used on layouts and cards too.
