Retiring List...

The end of the Autumn / Winter 2012 Idea Book is drawing near—January 31, 2013 to be exact! As with all Idea Books, The Spring / Summer 2013 Idea Book promises the release of some amazing new products! But as we enthusiastically bring in the new, we must reluctantly retire some of the old.

We do our best to keep these products in stock until the end of their Idea Book cycle, but effective immediately, the items on this list are available only while supplies last.

The paper packets are usually the first to sell out followed by any coordinating embellishments. I encourage you to look over the list below and order sooner, than later if there is anything that you want to order, OR that you must have!
Please remember that we are unable to accept exchanges for items included on the Retired List.

BIG Happenings going on in December...

This post is filled with lots of information so be sure to read it completely.

Included:

1. While supplies last - new items to be added

2. Retiring list
3. December Stamp of the Month

4. National Papercrafting Month Special - starts Dec 13th

5. "Reindeer Bucks"

"While Supplies Last"

Everyone enjoys shopping the deals this time of year, and you’ll be tickled to learn that CTMH is making more fabulous deals available to you.

At 12:00 AM (MST), that's 2:00 AM here (EST) on December 1st, CTMH will add new items to the “While Supplies Last” section of my website’s shopping page. Among the new additions you will find a wide variety of paper and coordinating accessories, all with a substantial markdown. You will also find that most of the items that are currently available will also see a further markdown at that time.

To sweeten the deal even more, from December 1–31, all orders placed on my website that reach or exceed $50 will also include a free Bonding Memories® glue pen (Z553)—a $4.50 value! This is great for adhering letters and Cricut cuts to your crafts projects.

I encourage you to shop early, because these deals are only available while supplies last.

Retiring List

CTMH does their best to keep these products in stock until the end of their Idea Book cycle, but effective immediately, the items on this list are available only while supplies last.

The paper packets are usually the first to sell out followed by any coordinating embellishments. I encourage you to look over the list below ( I will post in another blog post since it is so long) and order sooner, than later if there is anything that you want to order, OR that you must have!

Treat yourself to an early Christmas present or wrap it up and put it under the tree.

Please remember that we are unable to accept exchanges for items included on the Retired List.

Whooo's Your Valentine?

Reindeer Bucks

I saw this idea on another Consultant's blog (Brenda Rose) and thought it was such a cute idea! Plus it's a way to show you how much I appreciate your friendship and business.

Here's how it works:

This is ONLY available through me!

For every $10.00 you spend at my website during the month of December, I will give you back $1.00 in "Reindeer Bucks". If you spend $50.00, you will get $5.00 in Reindeer Bucks.

You can start spending your Reindeer Bucks on February 1st, 2013 with the NEW Spring/ Summer Idea Book!

Summary

Spend $50.00 on an online order at my website and you will also be eligible for the following:

December SOTM for only $5.00
FREE Bonding Memories Glue Pen
$5.00 in Reindeer Bucks

Remember it all starts tonight at 2:00 AM EST

I hope you are still with me after all this. Contact me if you have any questions.
