I know that’s a lot to include in one post, but I am excited to share everything with you! First of all, I am thrilled to announce Close to my Heart’s December promotion!
Place an order of $20* or more on my Close to my Heart website from December 1–31, 2010, and you’ll be rewarded with a popular, retired D-size stamp set for FREE! Talk about getting more for your money—the free stamp set is valued at $22.95! I’m sure you’ll be thrilled with the set that CTMH picks out for you. You’ll also get FREE shipping/ handling and tax on your free stamp set. That’s a lot of Plenty for your Twenty!

*Excluding tax and shipping/handling. Qualifying purchases must include shippable products (Studio J® layout purchases excluded, Studio J memberships and 5-packs will count toward a qualifying order only if shippable items are also ordered).
Next, I am super excited to tell you that, thanks to many of you and to Amazon’s Black Friday sale, I FINALLY got my new iMac today! Woo-Hoo! If you have been a follower of my blog for a while, you probably know that my old iMac was on it’s last legs. It was only 6 years old, but apparently in the computer world, that is ancient. I was having problems uploading photos, updating my website and blog, working with my email, you name it. It was making it very hard to do anything. So, I decided it was time for a new puter. I went though my stash of CTMH products and listed a ton of things for sale. I told myself that if I could raise enough money from my “Clearance Sale,” I would get my new Mac. (It was a great fiscal lesson for my 7 year old. He watched me constantly update my spreadsheet of items for sale and asked me everyday how close I was to my goal. He is slowly learning that if we want something bad enough, we need to work and save for it. Since he knew that he would be getting my old computer when I got my new one, he was just as excited as I was when UPS came today.)
Anyway, this thing is AWESOME! I am excited to try out the cool camera and iMovie software to see if I can actually record some tutorials and videos for you guys. (Tresa, I may need a few pointers. LOL!) I hope that now that I have a reliable computer again, I will be able to post more regularly like I used to.
The only bummer is that I can’t use my old Adobe Creative Suite software on my new computer. It is too old to upgrade so I will need to order an entire new Suite which, if you are a graphic designer you know, costs an arm and a leg! In fact, it is almost as much as my computer. That brings me to the next part of this post. I am continuing my online Clearance Sale in hopes to raise enough money for the software that I need. I have a ton of new and used products for sale at some great prices. Click here (or on the tab at the top of my blog) to see a list of what I have for sale. Let me know if there is anything that you’d like me to photograph for you. I am happy to email you photos.
Thanks so much to everyone who has helped me raise the funds for my new computer and to those who have been so patient with my lack of posts the past few months! You guys are wonderful! Big Hugs to all of you!
