More projects from consultant camp

    I thought today I would share with you the beautiful artwork that was designed by my dear friend Victoria.  She designed the projects we did with Pemberley.  First we started with the Pemberley workshop on the go layout.  Then we moved into making a beautiful card box and 8 cards.  Finally we made a mini album with pockets and tags.  Victoria did an outstanding job with these fantastic artwork!!!!!

   If you are interested in any of the following artwork please call or email me and we can arrange a workshop for you and your friends.

*Warning lots of photos to follow!!!!!!!!

Let me know what you think of these workshops!

Stephanie's Jumpstart Art

  Tonight was Stephanie's jumpstart party.  She needed a little bit more in sales to meet her second level of Straight to the Top.  After working very hard on her first three months she accomplished her goal and made the second level.  I am very proud of her and her success!!!!!

   Stephanie created 2 fun and outstanding cards to make with her guests.  They both contain Cricut components from the Art Philosophy cartridge.

Card #1 uses Superhero paper and American Celebration stamp set

Card #2 uses Footloose paper and Under the Sea stamp set

These cards are so stinkin' cute!!!!  Don't you think so too???

Let's all wish Stephanie continued luck in her business opportunities.

hugs, Holly

Project #2 from Consultant Camp

  Today I am going to share with you another wonderful project we did at consultant camp.  This project was designed by my dear friend and upline, Dana.  It uses Florentine paper, Florentine stickease, pearls, ribbon, Quick Pic Album, 6x6 flip flaps, and brownbag ink.  This project is soooo cute!!!!!!


*Warning this post will be very heavy in photos.  Sorry for the glare on the pages but it is the flash bouncing off the flip flap. 

If you are interested in this project, let me know and we can set a date to make it.

hugs, Holly

Footloose Bookmark Album

    Today I will be sharing one of the larger projects we did at consultant camp.  This book was designed by my fellow consultant Michele.  She totally rocked this mini album.  Materials that you will need are: Footloose level 2 paper pack, Footloose chipboard compliments, bookmark album, and ribbon.  The big surprise to all of us was the bookmark album only uses half of the level 2 paper pack.  If you are interested in this project and would like to set up a home workshop call me.

*Warning lots of photos are coming!

I would love to show you how to make this album.  Call me today to schedule this workshop for yourself and your friends.

Consultant Camp

   Last weekend I was away with some of my downline, Emily and Stephanie and a dear friend Cyndi.  We went to consultant camp in Okemos, Michigan.  This was a training camp put on by my upline, Dana and 4 other sister consultants, Sarah, Victoria, Michele, and Rebecca.  During camp we made 3 mini projects, 5 major workshop style projects, 15 stamping techniques,  business training classes, and games.  There was also lots of food, laughs, and friendships.

   When Emily, Stephanie and I left my van was packed to the gills with all of our much needs materials.  If we needed to put one more person in the van, I don't know where they would have sat.

    While at camp there were 60 consultants there working on all kinds of projects.  I primarily worked on the projects that were provided for me.  There were plenty and they were intense!  :)  I will post the projects in the upcoming days.  There are too many photos to put today.

Don't we look cute in our fun jammies??




All of the ladies that came to camp!

Rumor has it, that there may be a consultant camp next year too!!!  If you like to craft and would like to be a part of a team that is supportive, fun, and truly a family let me know.  I love for you to join my team!! :)

Operation Smile

  
 I would like to thank everyone that has helped me to pay for one complete surgery through your generous donations to Operation Smile.  This charity is remarkable.  They do surgeries for children that have disfigurements to their face.  Just $240 pays for a complete surgery.  Close to My Heart, asks consultants to try to fundraise for Operation Smile each year.  They give us from June 1st to May 31st. of the next year to raise the money for a surgery.  This is the first time in my 4 years that I have met this goal.   My goal this year is to pay for 2 surgeries.  I have faith in all of you that we can do this again.

  Close to My Heart donates a percentage from each stamp set that is bought to Operation Smile.  This is a charity that is near and dear to Jeanette Lynton's heart.  It is easy for all of us to raise funds again.  When you place an order on the website or at a home gathering, simply roll up your total to the nearest dollar amount.  During this month's awesome campaign you can help me to start a new fundraising cycle.

hugs, Holly

Life is Tweet!

    This month's stamp set, Life is Tweet, is AMAZINGLY fun!!!!  The little birds and flowers are great.  The major bonus is that it works with the Art Philosophy cricut cartridge for 2 of the sayings.  I will totally want this set.

    I would love to design a project for you and your friends to do with this stamp set.  Remember this month is the most fabulous special!!!!  This special is when you buy 2 stamp sets you get one for free.  Everyone loves this deal.  Let's get together in June so you can get some great stamp sets.

hugs, Holly
