CTMH Cherry-O, Splendor, Passages and Zippidee Workshops on the Go or Kit of the Month

I've had several questions about the Workshop on the Go kits (what I also sometimes call our Kit of the Month as there are 4 kits and 4 months to each Idea Book).  These kits are available during the Idea Book that they are released in - so in the May-August 2010 Idea Book we have available in KIT FORM a workshop for Cherry-O, Passages, Splendor and Zippidee. 

Cherry-O Workshop Kit - $29.95

Each of the kits are just $29.95 and come with the following items:

- Level 2 Paper Pack (12 sheets of patterned paper and 10 sheets of coordinating cardstock in 4 colors)
- Exclusive coordinating B size stamp set (cannot be purchased separately, must order the kit to get this stamp)
- One full size embellishment
- One workshop guide which gives you full cutting, assembly and embellishing directions for BOTH a 2 page layout AND a card workshop where you make 6 cards (2 each of 3 designs). There is also additional artwork shown that uses our how-to books to complete.

There is also a "best" option accessory listed (usually between $5-$10) that is an additional embellishment you can use in your workshop to kick it up a notch artistically. These are optional add ons but they really add a whole lot to the art of the pieces you create.

These kits are an INCREDIBLE deal. Not only are you getting a discount on the package (usually about $2-$3) but they take you step by step through making truly beautiful projects, learning new techniques and USING what you purchase. You won't buy a beautiful paper pack and then worry about cutting into it or not knowing what to make with that stamp set you purchased - you'll be able to pull out your brochure and get started that day! YOU can choose what you want to do - scrap, make cards or BOTH. You'll have LOTS of patterned paper left over to make additional projects. Each time I use a kit I make the featured 2 page layout, the additional 2 page layout, the cardmaking workshop (6 cards) and the additional cards (6 more cards) or a total of 4 layouts and 12 cards with TONS of paper leftover. I usually run out of the cardstock first so I just make sure I have extra of the matching neutral (White Daisy or Colonial White in general).

I truly LOVE this new workshop program that we have! I've looked at other "kit of the month" type of programs out there and our price ROCKS! Plus when you run out of the paper pack you can BUY MORE of just the paper ($12.95 for a Level 2 pack) - you'll have the stamp set to use already! This is how I buy all my new paper packs now - I love that the kits always come with a brand new accessory for me to try, that I can use the stamps not only with the kit but other paper packs and I love using the brochures to create cards and layouts in other papers that I have on hand. The versatility, flexibility and value of these kits is what I love to share with my group of friends! I hope you'll take a minute to check these out!
