Studio J - Let's celebrate the anniversary!

LUCKY 5

Happy Anniversary, Studio J®!

November marks the five-year anniversary of Studio J®, and that means it’s your lucky month, with five amazing ways to win through Studio J and Close To My Heart social media!

First, throughout the month of November, all layouts purchased in Studio J are $5! That is a savings of over 25% off of retail—an unprecedented deal!

Your second chance to win big must come by sheer luck: every fifth order placed in Studio J during November receives a FREE surprise Close To My Heart accessory in its shipping box! The accessory has a retail value of $5 or more.

If luck doesn’t smile on you in that way, you might stumble upon it by finding a little extra something in your Studio J box. Five “golden tickets” will be sent out during the month of November with randomly selected Studio J print orders! This “golden ticket” is redeemable for one of Close To My Heart’s new D-ring albums* loaded with 10 Top Load Memory Protectors™.

For a fourth way to win, simply create new, gorgeous layouts in Studio J, select your favorites, and then post pictures of them on Close To My Heart’s Facebook page using the hashtag #ctmhlucky5. After November 30, five lucky winners will be selected from the entries based on their artistry and creativity and each of these winners will receive their own D-ring album loaded with 10 Top Load Memory Protectors!

And there is one last way to win: take your new Studio J artwork and post a picture of it on Instagram using the hashtag #ctmhlucky5. Just as it is with Facebook, after November 30, five lucky winners will be selected from the entries to receive their own D-ring album loaded with 10 Top Load Memory Protectors!

Cricut® Artfully Sent

I am so excited for another new CTMH cartridge!

Welcome to the Joyful Stars Blog Hop for September

This is a cute little post-it note holder.  I used the D1612 Teacher Appreciation Stamp Set and our ShinHan Touch markers to color in the owl.  I also used the markers to color the enamel stars (Z2010). 

The post-it note holder was cut with the Cricut Explore.  I received the cutting file from a fellow crafter.  I need to look up her name so I can post the file and give her the credit that she deserves.  Your next hop will be over to Andrea Sherman's blog.
