“The next blog on the list is Maretta Nearing http://maretta-bloomincrafty.blogspot.com/2012/08/clementine-blog-hop.html Hope you have a great time on our hop and checking out all the creations using the Clementine paper pack.


I am so happy to present my very first blog hop creation......














I know this may seem very simple compared to others, but I loved the way the card came out. In person the colors of the paper look AMAZING together!  When I first heard about the Clementine blog hop I was like ohhh that sounds like fun but I don't  have that many products to work with      so that's out. It wasn't till I noticed that the consultant kit came with 6x6 sample papers of all the new collection that I made up my mind to make this card. I told myself I wasn't going to hold myself back anymore, I want to create and that's what I'm going to do! =) I love the fact that even if your just starting out with very little supplies you can use any close to my heart paper pack and create something wonderful just using that paper.
 
 For the flowers I simply cut them out of one of the papers in the Clementine pack. The paper is so cute it looks like this....

Till next time!
Thanks for stopping by and have fun at Maretta's blog! =)

I'm a independent consultant for Close To My Heart!

Lately I've been kind of down and out wanting to craft more but not really getting anywhere, so like always when I'm board and I'm just to tired to craft I watch you tube crafting videos. One night about two weeks ago I stumbled across a women named Mandy (my passion for scrapbooking) who sold CTMH products and made wonderful paper crafts using those products. She seemed so nice and talked about her group called the damask divas. They are a group of women who all sell under Mandy. Recently Mandy said people who wanted to be apart of CTMH and her group could join for $50! It may sound like a lot but that $50 pays for $130 worth of product! SCORE! Since crafting calms me I figured why not join and become apart of a group of women who love paper crafting just as much as I do. =) It has only been a day and already I was added to their facebook group (which is so cool!!) and welcomed with open arms. Everyone has answered all my questions and Mandy has been a doll! I am looking forward to being apart of this group for a long time. I can't wait to get my kit and start crafting!
- Till next time! =)
