Perhaps you may want to consider holding your own Home Gathering and receiving some of those gorgeous new products for FREE or at a 50% savings! I have a few dates open in February & March and would like to offer you an extra incentive to book a Home Gathering during these months.  The first 3 people to contact me will be "Jumping for Joy"  when they get to jump up a level in their Hostess Rewards.  For example, if the sales total from your Gathering reaches $350 you would normally recieve $60 in FREE product and 1 item of your choice at 1/2 price.  But when you "Jump for Joy" to the next level you will recieve $80 in FREE product and 2 items at 1/2 price!   Have I got your attention now?  Ok, so act fast!  Contact me to take advantage of this special offer that is only available through me.   This is not a Close To My Heart promotion, but rather a special offer from me to YOU!

The NEW Spring/Summer Idea Book has so many great new kits and products, but I thought I would give you a little sneak peak at a few of my favorites.  There are 2 new Workshop on the Go Card Kits.  I will be offering the Chantilly card workshop in March-details coming soon.  I love the fresh, bright colors of these birthday cards.

 
Next up on my favorites list is the Canvas Home Decor Kit.  This kit contains products to create a wall hanging in your choice of 2 different color schemes.  This would be a beautiful artwork addition to your home.  It would also make a great Mother's Day gift!  I just got my kit and cannot wait to put it together.

It may be because I have 2 boys, but the Later Sk8r kit is my all time favorite!  I love the colors and think it just screams BOY.  Can't wait to work with this kit. 

My second favorite kit is For Always.  Love the black & white patterns and by adding just  a pop of color, you can make this kit work for many different occasions.

 
Surf's Up is another favorite for summertime and the beach.  I think I will need to do an entire album with this kit, since I have so many beach pictures.

Last up is the NEW Hinged Display Frame and the Tommy kit.  This kit has a nautical theme to it, but contains primary colors, making it very versatile.   

Of course there's plenty more new products for you to drool over, so be sure to check out the NEW Idea Book online, beginning February 1st.  Or, contact me to get your new catalog sent directly to your mailbox.  The cost is $5 to cover shipping, or if you're in the area you can stop by and pick one up.
