Bonus Projects

So...I have been doing this CTMH thing for about 6 months now and I really do LOVE it. They have some great products. I know last week I blogged about the WOTG (Workshops on the Go), and how nice it is to have everything ready to just cut and put together. This week I want to add to that. After I had cut all kits, I had enough paper left over from the kit to do more! So not only did I get 15 cards from the kit, but I was able to make the 12x12 scrapbook page that you see pictured here and I still have a few pieces of paper left over that I could make some extra cards if I wanted. What a great deal it really was!

I Love WOTG from CTMH!

As I am preparing for a Card Workshop this coming Friday, I realized just how much I love the Workshops on the Go (WOTG) from Close To My Heart (CTMH). They make scrapbooking and cardmaking so much fun and so easy. Whether you are heading out to a crop for the night, a beginner or an advanced papercrafter. These kits have it all! (I know it's starting to sound someone like a sales pitch, but I really do like them). Each kit comes with a guide that you can follow if you are new to paper crafting or if you are more advanced you can alter it as you. All the paper, ribbon and embellishments are right there just waiting for your to cut and create! (and here's a little secret...there is usually enough items left over in the kit to do other projects as well.) WHAT A GREAT BANG FOR THE BUCK! .
