So no joke, just the other day I was telling my husband I needed to purchase my next planner to prepare for 2016. Then what does CTMH announce at the Australasia Convention? They are introducing *NEW* Planners beginning December 1st! I’m so excited. I mean really excited. I am a huge planner. As in every weekend I sit down and map out my next week. It may be that I just have way too much on my plate and need to organize it. Or maybe it’s simply my Type A personality!
Let’s take a peek at this new planner.
Are you eagerly awaiting the release of Close To My Heart’s *NEW* Annual Inspirations Book? There are some amazing *NEW* products just waiting to be put to the creative test! Lucky for you, some of these items are being released a little early…a little sneak peek, if you will. Here’s what you can get your hands on right now…

Close To My Heart has been supporting Operation Smile since 2004. A portion of the proceeds from each sale of a stamp set has gone to this wonderful charity. Plus, customers can always round up their order totals and donate the change to Operation Smile–such a simple way to help out. Consultants got in on the action and began having Silent Auctions at our local events and even at the Annual Conventions to support this cause.
Last year, the support expanded to an exclusive Base & Bling necklace created by CTMH only for Convention attendees with a minimum donation amount (pictured above.) It was so well received, that they did it again this year!
Also, last year was the first year for a 5K run–just like the necklaces, it was a hit so they did it again this year. Would you believe that we raised over $40,000 for Operation Smile during Convention this year between the necklaces, the auction and the 5K run?!? Amazing, right?
Close To My Heart is going to be introducing their *NEW* 2015-2016 Annual Inspirations Book on September 1st. And while I don’t want to ruin any of the product surprises, I do want to give you heads up that there is going to be a big changeover of colors in the Enchantment palette.
