Awe Scrap!

picking my horse

Ok gotta go with the Creative Cause for my Kentucky Derby pick

Let's see how it turns out!!

 This wasn't the Derby but was the Roral Enclosure at the Royal Ascot  a few years ago. 

I was able to attend the Kentucky Derby in 2002 with sweet seats in the jockey clubhouse suites.  Between both races you can pretty much call that a "bucket list" experience!!

make a miracle

Did you know that $240 can change a life?

 Every three minutes a child is born with a cleft — often unable to eat, speak, socialize or smile. In some places these children are shunned and rejected. And in too many cases, their parents can't afford to give them the surgeries they need to live a normal life.

$240 is all is takes to provide one surgery with Operation Smile.  Operation Smile is a mobilized force of medical professionals and caring hearts who provide safe, effective reconstructive surgery for children born with facial deformities such as cleft lip and cleft palate. This international children's medical charity heals children's smiles, forever changing their lives.

Since 1982, Operation Smile — through the help of dedicated medical volunteers — has provided more than 2 million patient evaluations and over 200,000 free surgeries for children and young adults born with cleft lips, cleft palates and other facial deformities.

As one of the most prominent children’s charities in the world and with a presence in over 60 countries,they are able to heal children’s smiles and bring hope for a better future.

With your help, how many lives can we change tomorrow?

Why Be A CTMH Consultant?

 

The best thing about being a Close To My Heart consultant is that you can set up your business to fit your life. Here are a few examples of the ways consultants have set up their businesses:

• Hobbyists – Like getting scrapbooking, stamping and cardmaking products at a discount? Simply submit the minimum $300/quarter to maintain consultant status and receive the consultant discount of 22%.
• Club Leader – You organize a monthly get-together to teach a project. Club members agree to purchase at least $150 in product. Each month, you select a hostess who’s eligible to receive hostess rewards and extra product. You rotate the hostess each month so that everyone can take advantage of hostess rewards. You can have as many clubs going per month as you like- a layout club, card club, Cricut club or Studio J club.
• Studio J Consultant – Not a paper scrapbooker? Maybe you’d like to set up a Studio J business based on CTMH’s online scrapbooking software. Your customers would be those who are interested in making layouts fast, getting them professionally printed by CTMH, and having the option of sharing their layouts digitally with family and friends.
• Business Builder – As a business builder, you will hold workshops or gatherings on a regular basis and recruit others to become a part of your team. If you’re interested in making additional income and leading a team, running a CTMH business is an excellent opportunity for you.

And, beginning in October, CTMH has a new and improved compensation plan that includes even more incentives and rewards for you!

It doesn’t matter how you want to set up your business-do what works for YOU. I started the company as a hobbyist. Several years back, I decided to do more and CTMH has been a blessing in my life- and it was the best decision I have ever made. I have met amazing friends, I earn fabulous vacations for myself and my husband and I get paid to scrapbook and stamp. Life doesn’t get much better than that!
