Dear Blog Guest,
Welcome to the October edition of my newsletter. As usual, I am running behind this month. Fall is definitely a season of change. Not only are the temperatures turning colder and the leaves are changing to gorgeous colors, it seems that change is happening elsewhere as well. My husband, Carl, went back to work (finally) this week after being laid off and unable to find a job. The boys and I have gotten used to having him home, so we've had to adjust to him not being here again. For us, that means there are extra things to pitch in on as a family again that he has taken care of for awhile. I'm sure we'll adjust just fine - we always seem to, it just takes a little time.
I had a great time at the ScrapPink Crop yesterday at VU - despite the airconditioning. Thanks to everyone who took a few minutes to stop by and say hello. I hope everyone had a great time as well!
Close To My Heart is offering a special treat to everyone who becomes a consultant during October. New consultants will have the chance to earn 10 FREE Studio J layouts. As a consultant, you will also have access to Studio J before the general public. Check out Studio J and our promotion this month.
October is also Breast Cancer Awareness month. As in years past, I will be donating 10% of my sales from October to the Susan G. Komen Foundation. Last year, we raised $60 for the Susan G. Komen Foundation. If you are a newsletter subscriber, you received a coupon for a special during October. CTMH policy does not allow me to advertise that here. If you would like to receive notice of specials I offer, please take a minute to subscribe to my newsletter using the Constant Contact link in the right sidebar.
Of course, we've also got a new Stamp of the Month this month - Holiday Warmth. This set is perfect to get you started on your Holiday cards or projects - or even caught up on your Holiday photos.
I've updated my website through November with workshops and a few open dates. I'll be adding a couple of things during the next week or so, so be sure to check back.
On another note, I have started a Facebook page directly related to my Close To My Heart business. If you're on Facebook, I welcome you to come check me out. I'd love to connect with you!
