Paper Cupcake Mini Album

Just back from Creative University and had a blast! I whipped up this yummy little album. This is my original idea...I used a border punch and a circle punch to layer my frosting! Hope you likey!

Clothes Pin Paper Flower Project

I have been seeing this idea floating all around and I made my own version using our papers and embellishments!
I love topping a project with a tiny botton with matching floss!It’s easy peasy! Cover clothes pin with paper, make a paper flower and attach with liquid glass! A nice way to close up a gifty bag!

Flower Power!

Here are three cute flowers I demonstrated at our team meeting!

This idea I got from Donna Salazar, only I layered each flower, one at a time. I stamped and sponged each layer & I made my own glimmer mist using water, a glob of our pearl paint and about 10 drops of brown bag in a mister (use an empty stamp cleaner mister!) Add a paper flower and brad or button center!

Joanne Walton shared this medallion flower idea. I scored two 12" strips of paper at 1 1/4" wide and then scored every half inch, accordian fold and glue into a circle, then push together tight and glue onto a round scrap backing. Hold until it stays, Try using a block to weight it down into place. Top with your choice like stample!

A layered flower. Punch out 6-8 scalloped circles, sponge the front and back edges with choc ink, scrunch, use your piercing tool to punch a hole the the center of each and put together with a brad!

Superbowl Sunday CTMH Deal!

Great idea from Heather! You might want to try this idea too tomorrow!
So I'm trying to think outside the box and using your idea from last year about using these kind of Fun holidays marketing below is what I came up with. Thought I'd pass it along.

Okay football fans, here we go for Superbowl Sunday I'm running a special deal just for you. For all orders over $25 I receive Sunday from the kickoff right up until the end of the 4th Quarter, you will receive a SPECIAL MYSTERY DISCOUNT!!!!! At the end of the game I will add all of the digits from the final score together and that MAGIC number will be YOUR DISCOUNT*.

For example if the score ends:

17 - 31 your discount will be 1 + 7 + 3 + 1 = 12 %
28 - 49 your discount will be 2 + 8 + 4 + 9 = 23 %

Orders have to be placed between kickoff and the final play to eligible. Orders can be placed via phone or email or heatherplotzke.myctmh.com (orders placed by myctmh website will receive a gift certificate for the amount of their discount to be used directly through me).

This discount will be on top of all the great corporate offers including the February Special of Buy 1 Textured Cardstock Combo pack Get 1 FREE and earning Stamp of the Month FREE with $100 order (prior to my discount).

Until we talk on Sunday have a great weekend and enjoy Superbowl Sunday, even if its just for the commercials and my sale!

Heather Plotzke (thanks for sharing Heather!)

I did this last year only I gave discounts during each quarter...Now I've added even another incentive-if they email me before the game with their quess of who will win and if they are correct, I give them an added discount or extra gifty with their order! Tell me your ideas, if you try this and if it was successful!

Update: Congrats to Lisa Stenz who used this idea and brought in an unexpected $350 with only a day heads up to post this!!! Wahoo!!!
