Studio J Love


It is a well known fact that I LOVE Studio J! What is Studio J? It is Close To My Hearts' online digital scrapbooking program. In one afternoon I created 19 layouts!!! Ok I kind of cheated. I used the Express Collections. Basically the layouts are created for you and all I had to do was add my pictures and the journaling. Could it be any easier? I think not. Now are you ready for the icing on the cake?  During March, Close To My Heart's Studio J 2-page 12" x 12" layouts are only $5.

Did you know that statistics show that most scrapboookers spend about $9-$10 per 2-page traditional layout they create? That includes paper, embellishments, photo developing, etc. So, at $5 per 2-page digital layout you are saving some serious dinero! Plus, that's almost a $2 savings per layout from our regular price. PLUS, you don't even have to be a scrapbooker to use Studio J. You just have to be someone with photos who wants to preserve them beautifully for their family. It's THAT EASY!

To play with Studio J, just head to the Studio J Page on my website. It's absolutely FREE to play and build layouts...and it's SO SIMPLE AND USER FRIENDLY. You don't pay a single penny until you purchase. Of course, you'll want to be sure to purchase in March to to get that $5 price. On April 1, it's back to $6.95.

What do you get for  your $5?
  • Your 2-page 12" x 12" layout
  • 1 high resolution .jpg file of each page. This way you can print more at a later date if you want to. This is emailed to you after you place your order
  • 1 lower resolution .jpg file of the 2 pages together (like you see here in this post). This is great for posting online for friends and family members to see. This is also emailed to you after you order.
If you have questions give me a call (435.764.3598). I've shared a few of my Studio J layouts that I created yesterday. Enjoy!

** You may already have this item from a past workshop

Now there is also FOUR different promotions going on this month: (note that if you participate in #3 and #4, your purchases support donations to worthy causes)




1.  It's a Banner Month!
2.  June Stamp of the Month
3.  Military Stamp Sets: Get Patriotic...Stamp Style!
4.  "Thank You" Continues to Support Oklahoma
----------------

1.  It's a Banner Month!:  In June, Receive a free My Creations® mini banner! Make it a “banner” day by placing a $25 order that includes a stamp set* to receive your free mini banner. The mini banner includes 10 chipboard pennants in 4 different shapes with 9 jump rings for hanging. Use the mini banner as a decoration for your parties and get-togethers this summer for many “banner” days! *qualifying stamp sets are sets that have a SKU number that begins with A, B, C, D or E.  M and K stamps are not included.  

If you are shopping on my website and place an order of $25 or more (in which an A, B, C, D or E stamp set is included) this banner will automatically be added to your order. 

2.  June Stamp of the Month:  I love this Summery stamp set and it's perfect for getting creative. I attached a picture of a card that my dear friend Karen sent to me. You'll notice that the background to the card Karen created (picture attached) was made by stamping one of the outline stamps randomly in Whisper.  She also only added a pop of color by coloring the center of the flower with our awesome Alcohol-Based Markers.  I wanted to show you that you can stay simple with this set even though it is a lined stamp set, or you can get really creative and color everything in. Picture of the set is attached. It's only $5 ($17.95 value) with a $50 purchase. And, if you are already taking part in the "Banner Month" special above, you are half way there!  But, never fear...check out #3 and #4 below and they will help you easily get to that $50 mark (AND the money you spend on them will also be donated to some worth charities!). If you are ordering on my website, and spend the $50 (before shipping and tax), you'll be prompted to add this set before you check out for only $5.

With Flag Day, Independence Day, Pioneer Day (here in Utah), and more right around the corner, now is the perfect time to celebrate military service and promote patriotism with these three new patriotic stamp sets.

Order them easily on my website with the following numbers: Home of the Brave (D1576), Strong and Free (Canada set, D1575) and Courage (B1437).  


4.  "Thank You" Continues to Support Oklahoma: If last month's tornadoes in Oklahoma was devastating.  Close To My Heart has created a way to help! They are donating all profits from the sale of this brand new stamp to the Red Cross Efforts toward the Oklahoma tornadoes through June 30. This stamp is just $2.95, and you can easily order it here I love that price point because it allows you to order one for yourself and extra for your friends.  All the while knowing that you are helping the people in this storm-torn area. 

So you see, as great as the National Scrapbooking Month specials were in May, CTMH made sure that June didn't come along and pale in comparison!  I love being  part of a company that cares so much for others!
