End of December CTMH Updates

It was just announced that Close To My Heart is having a Boxing Week Sale. Please mark your calendars for December 26th.

Boxing Week Sale

There will be some amazing deals during the Boxing Week Sale. There is a new flash sale every day of the week. Sales feature current and retired products and quantities will be limited.

The Boxing Week sale which begins at 2:00am EST on December 26 and will end at 1:59 am EST on January 1. Each day will feature a different selection of sales items which will be available for 24 hours.

To see which items will be discounted during the sale, visit the Promotions tab on my Consultant website at any time during the sale. All of the offers are only available while supplies last!

CTMH Corporate Newsletters will be emailed to all newsletter subscribers at the beginning of the sale to let them know when it has started. Typical Flash Sale "criteria" apply, e.g., shipping & handling is based on full retail value of items, orders must be placed on my Consultant website, purchases count toward earning the SOTM and Hostess Rewards.


It was also announced that an Intense Black Re-inker is now available.

Intense Black Exclusive Inks™ Re-inker (Z7518)

The Intense Black Re-inker (Z7518) is designed to refresh the Intense Black Exclusive Inks™ Stamp Pad (Z4189). The Intense Black Stamp Pad is recommended for use with watercolors and alcohol markers.


The CTMH Corporate Offices have some Holiday Closures later this month. In observance of the Christmas Holiday they will be closed on Tuesday, December 24 and Wednesday, December 25. In observance of the New Year Holiday they will be closed on Tuesday, December 31 and Wednesday, January 1. No orders will be prepared for shipment these these days.

November/December 2019 Idea Book & Catalog

In case you have been busy with holiday parties, shopping and other preparations, this past Wednesday I posted a reminder of the stamp sets, stamp sets + Thin Cuts and other items that are available, while supplies last, until 1:59am EST on January 1, the last day the November/December 2019 catalog is valid. Any items that are still in stock when 2020 arrives will be moved to the Online Only area of my Consultant Website in the days after the book expires.

I hope you have a great last weekend before the December holiday festivities are in full swing.

Two Weeks Until 2020!?

With the end of 2019 approaching, the November/December 2019 Idea Book is valid for only 14 more days. At 11:59pm MST on New Years Eve, Tuesday, December 31, the November/December 2019 Idea Book ends.

November/December 2019 Idea Book & Catalog

As I mentioned when the September/October 2019 expired on October 31, with the change to six 2-month catalogs, Close To My Heart will not be posting a retiring list at the end of each book. Items are available while supplies last and any items that are still in stock will be moved to the Online Only area of my Consultant Website shortly after the book expires.

There are three Hostess Rewards stamp sets on pages 2 and 3. I introduced you to them in early November. They will no longer be available in 2020 (the HR items in the Core Book remain available):

November/December 2019 - page 2

November/December 2019 - page3

In mid-November I did a deep dive of the Holly Jolly, Cedar & Pine and Mix-In Collections. In addition to showing you the papers, the coordinating stickers, embellishments, stamp sets and Workshop Kits (both Scrapbooking and Cardmaking) were featured.
