Stampers With An Attitude Blog Hop- Georgie

Welcome to the Stampers with an Attitude Blog Hop!  

Who are the Stampers with Attitude????  This is the team led by my upline Kimberly Moss!!!

If you are coming here from Cat's Blog you are on the right path.

Our theme this month is artwork using the Georgie Paper collection or Father's Day artwork!

I am thrilled to share with you a little (well maybe not so little) project that I made for my niece.  I created name blocks for her.  

I cut the blocks out of 2"x4" wood, then painted them purple.  I used the grey chevron pattern from the Georgie paper collection on the front of the blocks.  Then I cut her name out of Gypsy paper and Purple Glitter Paper.  I mod podged it all together.  Her name sits on top of another board which I painted a purple/grey color, and cut her birthdate out.  

This gift went along with a baby album that I created.  I used Georgie Paper Pack, Georgie Picture My Life cards and Through the Years Picture My Life cards.  I love how this album came together.  

This is the title page:

Baby I'm Worth It

BABY I'M WORTH IT...
Let me tell you a little story... 9 years ago, I was a serious scrapbooker.  I had a newborn son and I was determined to scrapbook his milestones & document our family memories.  When I stumbled upon Close To My Heart, I fell in love.  I wanted it all.  After attending and hosting parties (4 total), I thought, why not just sign up and get a discount.  So I did.  

You see, being a consultant means that I can make being creative (which is really like therapy) a priority.  PLUS- I have access to the best quality products at a discount, and this makes me even happier.  

What did I do 9 years ago?  I made an investment!  An investment into memory keeping and an investment in ME!  I WAS WORTH IT!  


​
AND SO ARE YOU... YOU ARE WORTH IT!
WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU?
There are 3 different deals here:

1
 When you sign up as a New Consultant you get:
• New Consultant Kit with essential supplies for only $75 (valued at $200)
• $50 in Select Product Credit to spend on additional supplies (of YOUR choice- basically you design your own kit)

2

Submit $350 in sales in your first 30 days and you can also earn your choice of a FREE Cricut® collection OR an additional $100 in Select Product Credit 


3
The chance to earn fantastic Straight To The Top start-up rewards (T-shirt, stamp sets, a bag and MORE)




No matter which type of consultant you choose to be there is a place for YOU on my team!!  Hobbyists and Business Builders alike are welcomed with open arms.  I joined Close To My Heart 9 years ago for the discount.  I thought I could teach a class or two and share my love for paper crafting with others.   Little did I know that my passion for crafting would provide me with a steady income, allow me to build wonderful relationships with other crafters both customers and team member alike, be recognized on stage at Convention as one of the companies top leaders and mostly build a team that I adore!  Additionally, Close To My Heart has awarded with me to an all expenses paid Cruise to the South Caribbean,  a trip to Costa Rica, a trip to Hawaii, and an Eastern Caribbean cruise.  I have had the opportunity to travel with my hubby, my mom, my kids and my best friend, as well as my CTMH family.  It has been an exciting journey that is just getting started!

Stampers with an Attitude- Charlotte

Welcome to the Stampers with an Attitude Blog Hop!  

Who are the Stampers with Attitude????  This is the team led by my upline Kimberly Moss!!!

If you are coming here from Karen's Blog you are on the right path.

Our theme this month is artwork using the Charlotte paper collection or Easter artwork!

Today I would like to share two cards I have created using the Charlotte paper pack and the January Stamp of the Month- Beloved Bouquet.

For this first card, I stamped the large rose using Ruby ink, in second generation, then stamped the outline in Ruby ink.  This gives it a tone-on-tone look.  I did the same in Fern ink with the leaves.  I added the "Happy Valentines Day" sentiment as well.  At the bottom corner, I added some Grey enamel gems to finish off the card.  

My second card has the same design, using different papers, stamps and sentiments.  I love how a card design can be so versatile like that!  For this card, I stamped the smaller rose twice, using the same tone-on-tone, technique as before.  I used Sorbet and Fern inks.  I added "Thinking of you" to this card.  At the bottom corner, I added some Grey enamel gems to finish off the card.  

The January Stamp of the Month- Beloved Bouquet, is just gorgeous!  Now that you have seen it used... make sure you pick yours up TODAY!  It is available for $5 with your $50 purchase through the end of January only!
