Springin' Up Flowers Stamp Set

FB Contest with Prize

I am holding a contest to kick off my new Facebook page.  "Like" me on facebook and then send your friends and family that are interested in scrapbooking and cardmaking to "like" me too.  Make sure they write on my wall who sent them because the person that gets the most people to "like" my page gets a $20 gift certificate from me, redeemable through me.  This contest runs until April 10, 2011, so spread the word.

You can find my facebook page here .

Also, remember to do a challenge from the month of March and submit pictures of your completed entry to me and be entered in a raffle.  The winner will get to choose from my basket of prizes.  Every submission is an entry, so enter more than once to increase your chances.  The contest ends on March 31, so hurry up and enter today.

Hope for Japan

This a direct quote from Jeanette Lynton, CTMH's CEO and Founder:

We've all been reeling with the images of tragedy and devastation in Japan. If you're looking for an easy, real, practical way to help relief efforts, then I invite you to contact your Close To My Heart Consultant!

Typically, our A-size sets retail for $7.95/$8.75 CAN, but the "Hope for Japan" set will be available through April 30 for just $5--and Close To My Heart will be donating 100% of the profits to the American Red Cross to benefit relief efforts in Japan.

If we all do a little, together we can do a lot. Let's show our support and together, provide real HOPE for Japan!

Please let me know if you would like the place an order.
It will be available through me and also on my website.

Some of my Studio J Layouts

I thought since I was sharing the Studio J tutorials, I would share a couple more of my Studio J layouts.
Here are a couple from our most recent trip to Wisconsin Dells last year...

These are both done with the Splash Zone kit and some Magic layouts, available to Studio J members.

You don't need a membership to scrapbook with Studio J, but it does get you exclusive kits and patterns, free shipping on up to 20 layouts per month, free page protectors, discounted prices on your layouts and free jpegs of each of your layouts.

If you like Studio J, contact me so we can figure out if a membership is right for you.

Studio J can be accessed through my website at www.amymcvey.myctmh.com

Hope you enjoyed this peek at Studio J.
