A peek inside the Happy Happy Christmas bundle

Better late then never I always like to say. I filmed a video today to highlight the wonderful Happy Happy Christmas bundle that is available from Close to My Heart during the month of November. This was on my "to do" list for much earlier in the month but November has been speeding by so today was the day!

The Happy, Happy Christmas Campaign features a workshop designed to help you and your customers have a happy, happy Christmas! We have made this workshop to help you create not only a beautiful Christmas album, just in time for the holiday season, but also to give you the materials to create four additional items that would make beautiful holiday gifts! It’s like getting five amazing projects all in one workshop!

During November, save over 10% off the retail value when you purchase one of the 12″ × 12″ album bundles (CC1179 and CC1180) for only $89.95 each! This bundle includes an exclusive guide to walk you through the steps of assembling five beautiful 2-page layouts. Add on additional items to make additional projects with your leftover materials, too! Review the campaign materials below for complete campaign details!

Now let's take a peek inside....I created the workshop that was designed by Corporate and then set about creating a whole extra set of pages! It is so satisfying to have only a few scarps left at the end!

Don't forget to order your bundle! Here is the link for shopping- HERE

Please let me know if you have any questions, and enjoy!

We hope that you will take the time to leave comments on our posts, as we love to get feedback from our viewers....whether it was something that you really liked or some new technique that was used that you would like to learn how to do....by leaving us comments, we get to hear what you like, and what you want to see. Thank you… now on to our hop! 

If you have just hopped onto my blog, you can start here as this is a circular hop, but if you want to follow us across Canada then please start at the beginning and join Julie at 12x12travels.blogspot.ca. If you came from Kiera of  inspirepapercrafts.blogspot.

then you are in the right place! 

My "Favorite New Thing" is the added items to the My Crush line. The In Pink is so fun and I have a few past posts that feature them. So I thought it was time to showcase the My Crush Wildwood items. I have cut them up, tucked them in, and stamped on them. I also took the White Enamel Stars and coloured them with the Marine Blue ShinHan Twin Touch marker. (make sure to give it lots of time to dry). 

Here are the detail close-ups.

Your next stop on the Cross Canada Hop is Brandy  of CanadianScrappers.blogspot.com .
