Surprise, scrapbook friends!! I did NOT expect to need to tell you anything this soon, but apparently they have released the December products early so we have our new Adventure Parks collection launching Monday! There is also a customer special of 25% off any single item (or bundle!!) on the website starting Monday. Hopefully you’ll agree that’s worth a third November email!

I have zero idea of what CM’s release schedule will be for the next few weeks, and I try SO hard not to spam you, but I hope you’ll bear with me if I have no clue when I’ll be emailing you again, and that you know I try hard not to take advantage of your willingness to let me in your inbox!

CM Sisters All is Bright Virtual Crop

Eeek! I have no idea where my year has gone and just realized I totally forgot to share the info on this Virtual Crop with you! The CM Sisters team is headed by my CM Upline Gina Embry and they do three virtual events every year. All the sessions are recorded so even if you can’t watch it live, you can go back and watch the classes later!

In the past I have been a presenter for this event, but unfortunately this time I have my in-person crop that weekend so will not be teaching a class, although I hope to get on for part of the time! Don’t let my conflict keep you from attending though! There are some awesome designers teaching classes, including Melissa Ullman, Krisslyn Mattei, Sachiyo Omitsu and Karyn McDermaid-Rolfe, all of whom are regular contributors to the CM Blog!

Weekend crops
First December Crop: Friday, December 1, 10:00 am - 5:00 pm and/or Saturday, December 2, 10:00 am - 7:00 pm **Please note that the hours for this crop are different from our normal hours due to a conflict of mine!

The other crops will be the regular time of Friday noon - 9 pm and/or Saturday 10 am - 6 pm.
Second December Crop: December 15 & 16 - our Christmas Party - and my sister is coming down from Baltimore to crop with us!! Merry Christmas to me! Wear your festive attire and I’ll be sending out a Google Docs link for you to add your favorite holiday songs to our playlist.
Bonus Third December Crop: December 29 & 30 - our first ever New Year’s Eve Eve party! Feel free to wear something “fancy” (I am thinking I’ll bust out the sequins!) and we’ll do a potluck of NYE party foods for our meals!

My daughter’s move to Florida in January is throwing my calendar into chaos so we’ll have a slightly limited crop schedule that month - I hope to have it resolved by my next email, but for sure the only weekend crop will be the last weekend, January 26-27.

*Tuesday zoom crops happen whether I am available or not - the “regular” girls who attend will keep you company even if I can’t!

Cyber Monday Customer Promo

For the first time ever, Creative Memories has a promo that I, as an Advisor, cannot get! It’s just for YOU, the customers! AND it’s one that they won’t run out of — but it’s a VERY limited time offer so hopefully you’re reading this in time to take advantage!

Starting Monday at noon through 11:59 on Wednesday the 29th, you can get 25% off one item OR BUNDLE when you shop on my website! This is the perfect opportunity to get that tool, organizer or bundle you’ve been eyeing! This offer is limited to one use per customer account, and will automatically be applied to the highest-priced item in your cart. And YES this includes the new Adventure Parks buy-it-all bundle, and they’ll take an additional 25% off the sale price which is already 10% off!!

You might want to use it on the….

Adventure Parks Collection

If CM wanted to surprise me with a new collection, they picked the PERFECT theme for me, with the new Adventure Parks collection! This is of course “not specific to any brand of theme park” wink wink, but you know what theme park I am going to use it for! I always say that CM likes me best, and I have to say that things like this (that Happy Album!!) just reinforce that for me. I’m sure they like YOU best too since you’re friends with me! ;)

In fact - my Facebook friends know this, but we are super excited that my daughter has been selected for the Disney College program and will be moving to Florida in early January for eight months (or more, if she loves it and decides to stay!) So even though I already “need” more theme park stuff, (plus, hopefully you’re following my Theme Park Thursdays series on YouTube??) now I REALLY need it!

This collection includes TWO albums, two paper packs, mats, stickers, embellishments and two punches - plus an 8x8 paper album!

12x12 Adventure Parks Ruby Album Cover
6.75 x 10 (!!!) Adventure Parks Ebony Happy Album Cover

(I have to break from my list for a minute to tell you how excited I am for this - my daughter had already said she was interested in using a Happy Album to document her time in the Disney College Program and this one will be PERFECT! It’s the same artwork as the Sparks of Magic 12x12 album - which I have loved - but in the Happy Album size that is such a great option for new scrapbookers!!)

12x12 Adventure Parks Designer Paper*
12x12 Adventure Parks Fast2Fab Inspired Paper
Adventure Parks Variety Mat Pack
Adventure Parks Stickers
Red Polka Dot Serif ABC/123 Stickers
Adventure Parks Embellishments
Shutter Love Chain Border Maker Cartridge
Admission Tickets Border Punch

Adventure Parks 8x8 Paper Album*

And OF COURSE there is a bundle, and you can save 10% if you buy it all now! Bundle pricing expires on December 8th (but remember, that 25% off one item expires at noon on November 29th!)

Items marked with * are not included in the bundle!

But wait, as they say! That’s not all! I am also thrilled that we have a brand new color of cardstock, one that as a Disney fan I am sure I’ll use a lot of!

I have loved the Canary cardstock but OH I have missed Goldenrod, which was the perfect “that specific theme park” colored yellow. I have high hopes for this new Solar Yellow to fill that role for my layouts!

I will be ordering on the dot of noon Monday and paying two day shipping so hopefully I will have my boxes by Wednesday (and will definitely have them Thursday) so I can do a YouTube flip through for you on my YouTube channel where I’ll give you a closeup view of all the new products as always!

If you are local and would like me to add any of these items to my order for you to pick up at my crop this weekend, please EMAIL me by 11 am Monday with your order and I’ll have it waiting for you.

Thank you!

Thanks to everyone who was able to make it out to my Open House on Friday and Saturday, and I hope some of the rest of you will be able to drop by Monday afternoon/evening (did I mention I have cookies?)

I appreciate you! Thanks for all the great things you bring to my life! And thanks for taking the time to read my emails!

Happy Scrapbooking!
