And yet another project!

I am so excited!!!  This one, I think I will get a lot of use out of.  It was pretty easy once I figured out what I wanted to do.  I was on Facebook one evening and another consultant had posted one that she had made for Convention.( I will share the link and credits at the end of this post.)
  Mine is a little different as I am not using a Cast Iron Cookbook Stand to hold mine upright. 

I can tell you that I started with a white 22" round pressboard cake board and an 11" tan plastic Rubbermaid Lazy Susan, some Black acrylic paint and some unsanded grout.  


Do you have any idea what this is?


 I made my own chalkboard paint using 1 - 2 oz bottle of Black acrylic paint and about 1/4 cup unsanded grout  Mixed it well and painted both the cake board and lazy susan. (3 Coats each)  Once the paint was dry I took a piece of chalk and conditioned the boards, by rubbing the chalk all over them and then wiping off the dust.  

Now do you have an idea what it might be?



Ok, here is another hint.

I then took CTMH's silver glitter tape and put 4 strips across it in different directions making the pattern on it.  I used E6000 glue to adhere the lazy susan to the cake board, making sure to center it.  The glitter tape divides the chalkboard into sections for me to write different things in for different events.


Ok, it is starting to remind you of anything yet?


Here is what I did to finish off the project.
I took CTMH's silver glitter paper and cut a large arrow


from the Artiste Cricut cartridge on the Cricut.  And placed it in the center of the lazy susan.  I also cut out some letters. T, S, W, I, I, i, i, n, n, p, t, t and o.  I decided I wanted them to stay put, so I ran them through the Xyron 150 sticker maker with permanent adhesive in it.  I then lined them up on the lazy susan part of the board to Spell out the name of our very own,


Wait for it!  


Wait for it!

Here are pics of new Items in the Autumn Winter 2013 Idea book.

First off how about the New Idea book cover?

And the New "Artbooking" Cricut cartridge. Yes you heard me right, we have a NEW Cricut Cartridge.  They've done it again, packed it full of AWESOME images to cut.  I'm taking Pre-Orders now. Just send me an email.
Look at this little mini book, isn't it cute?
Yeah more shapes.
It's themed again and has at least 10 Mini Books.  It still comes as a bundle with 3 - D sized stamp sets and 3 - chipboard packs.  Again it is $99.00. 

My Crush books are new, CTMH's version of Smash books.  They fit right into your purse so they are easy to carry with you.  Only $12.95 each.

 There are 60 10" x 7" printed cardstock pages. We have assortments for $4.95 each  and stamps that match the Crush books, for just $9.95.  Look for 6 crush books total.
 There's a new Photo Frame. 
This is Awesome, and yes this is new paper, called Pro Player.  I already love this paper and the stamps that match.  
It's going to be perfect for my  Grandsons' pages.


Baby Cakes is another paper pack.  I'll show more paper later.

We now have our own line of Jewelry.  It is the Base and you get to design or add anything you want and make it the way you like it.  I'm sure I'll have to play with that.


We now have Designed Decor


We also have Hostess Rewards now too.  

This was the first day of Convention and they have already blown me away with all this new COOL stuff.  I can't wait to see what the unveil today.

I will be placing an order on August 1, 2013, for those wishing to pre-order any of the new items, just send me an email with the list and information to contact you.  

Until tomorrow!!!

Happy Scrappin',

My New Facebook Page

I have started a new Business Facebook page and would love for you all to go check it out and give me some feedback, maybe even "like" my page if you wish.  I started working on it in December but just recently changed some things about it.  Please click on the link below and let me know what you think.

https://www.facebook.com/janicewilsonCTMH?ref=hl

This is the profile pic I chose to use on both Facebook and Pintrest.

I plan on posting there as often as possible.  Sharing everything that I do with Close To My Heart.   As you know CTMH Convention starts in just 2 days and I will be posting everything that I see coming from convention.  I'm not going to convention but I have lots of friends who are and they will be sharing everything.  All the new products and supplies.  I am excited about the new products, I don't know what they are yet, but I know they will be great.  There are so many products on the retired list that CTMH just brought out in the last two Idea books that what ever they have in store for us is going to AWESOME.  Watch for my posts to my blog and to my new Facebook page.

I am also converting my Pinterest sight over to a business page so watch for changes there too.  Here is a link to my pinterest page.  http://pinterest.com/janicewilson64/boards/
