One of the greatest things about being a Close To My Heart Consultant is the lasting friendships you make.  A few days ago I returned from my extended weekend with some of my best CTMH sisters! In 2008 I went to my very first convention and was so excited to be chosen as one of nine winners of  a Spa Retreat Getaway.  It was one of the most memorable experiences and we became great friends. Each year at convention we have a mini reunion lunch to catch up with everyone.   We decided that a 2 hour lunch wasn't enough time so last we started planning a weekend reunion.   This year we were not ALL able to attend but hopefully next year more will be able to go.

Quick post here.  I wanted to share a card I created using the new Ariana paper pack. This is beautiful paper which makes for beautiful cards and layouts. I kept this 5x7 card fairly simple using the big rose from the Ariana Complements as my focal point.   The White Daisy Cardstock was cut using the Artiste Cricut Cartridge - <Card> x.   It was a little longer in length than I wanted to so I cut it to shorten the length and then used a zip strip to cover up the seam.  Those zip strips sure come in handy!!   The sentiment is from the new stamp set - Greatest Love .  My accents are the new Black and Grey Epoxy Bubbles.   The sketch I used for my card is from Deconstructed Sketch #136 . You can see this card and more at my Open House this Saturday - February 8th.   Stop by between 9am and 1pm!    2722 Lascassas Pike - Murfreesboro, TN New Products used for this card.
