Heart 2 Heart Challenge - New Catalog Sneak Peak

Another challenge creation, this time for the Heart 2 Heart blog. This is a blog designed to showcase CTMH and I love the inspiration!

I had intended to head to bed, actually I had been in bed.  But hubby called on his way home and I ended up being waylaid by the computer - shock, I know! The H2H challenge had been posted and after missing out on my first Mojo Monday project, I wanted to be first to post :)  I whipped up this little beauty in about 30 minutes and even manage to capture a decent image at night.

This card features a sneak peak of an upcoming paper packet - Splendor and stamp of the month...ooh, la, la - you are going to love the new Summer catalog.

COMMENT CONTEST:  Would you like to receive this summery card in the mail?  Simply leave a little love, um, I mean comment! One lucky winner will be select via a random number generator on Sunday, April 25th @ 8pm.

Technique Classes at May 1st Crop: Irresistible Die Cuts & Sanding

I'm off to Alicia's to work on our purse goody bags for the crop, but before I took off I wanted to show you the other techniques that you'll be learning at the crop. These two techniques will be the beginning of your very own "Technique Book."  Each time you attend an event with us, you'll learn more techniques and create more pages to add to your book!

Thank you for your support! (How can you help...)

Wow, thank you to everyone who emailed me and asked how they could help me earn the cruise (ie how are points accrued)! I have to admit, it was scary to put it out there that I am "really" trying to earn this cruise. You see failure terrifies me and worse yet, I hate to fail in front of others. Yet, my favorite quote is "feel the fear and do it anyhow." Close To My Heart's phone call yesterday encouraged me to do just that and boy, am I glad I did. It's great to have so many cheering me on!

Here are the details on the cruise & how I earn points:

Qualifying Period: October 1, 2009–September 30, 2010

Total Points Needed: 35,000

Points Awarded for Sales: 1 point for every $1 in sales / min. personal sales of $20k

Points for New Recruits: 500 (recruit must submit $300 in sales and remain active)

- I'd love to share the gift of CTMH with you, let's chat (425.413.4280) / CreatewithChristine@msn.com  Or if you are ready to sign up now, you can do so online!

Points for New Recruits Achieving STTT: 1,500

Create Paper Flowers at our National Scrapbook Day Crop

These paper flowers are all the rage.  Many crafters are scooping up old books to cut up.  Instead, I pulled from my background and texture paper to create these beauties.

Those who join us for our crop on May 1st will learn how to create their very own. Warning: They are addictive!
