Valentine's Card Using Conie Fong Sweetheart Bella with Love and CTMH So Much Happy Paper

Hello friends!  I am so excited that I am allowed to stay with CTMH.  I was told I had to choose between CTMH and using digital stamps as they were no longer going to allow me to use them and still be a consultant. 

I was given permission 7 yrs. ago to use Digital stamps and to be on any Design teams; as long as I was not selling their products for money; which I am not.  Then someone reported me, stating that I was selling digital stamps; so there was an investigation.    

I went through the month of January voicing my opinion and trying to figure out how I could stay and still keep using the digital stamps.  I was told I couldn't stay and had already given all my customers to other consultants; and then I received an email last night to tell me that things had changed and I was going to be allowed to stay as a CTMH Independent Consultant.  I feel very blessed for this to have worked out the way I wanted it to.  I am very excited to still be a part of this fabulous company.  

I love my digital stamps and I use both digital stamps as well as regular stamps.  I can't imagine my life without both of them.  They each serve a different purpose to me.  I color these gorgeous images so that I don't focus on my pain.  Working with my customers with CTMH helps me to focus on someone other than myself; which also makes me feel better.  Plus I love giving things away and making others happy. 


CTMH has a fabulous clearance sale going on with some really low prices; so be sure to click her to find out what is still available.  Only while supplies last.  

I decided to take another class with Kit and Clowder on coloring fur with pencils.  I wasn't very good at it; so I thought I could use the help.  Alyce is an excellent teacher and I love being able to watch the videos and learn at my own speed online; rather than actually attending a class in person.  I wasn't completely satisfied with my coloring of this sweet bear; but I am happy that I took the class.  I still prefer to color with Copics; but I want to learn how to use pencils as well.  

This sweet bear comes in a set of 3 different ones.

CTMH Status Change Again! I'm Back! Awesome!

Hello friends! Things have been crazy for me for the past 5 weeks; but I received good news tonight from CTMH.  They are allowing me to stay as a Independent Consultant and to continue using Digital stamps.  I am glad I argued and fought to try to make them understand that the wording needed changed on their rules.  

I know many people think I am crazy for staying; but as I said before; I love CTMH products and they have been part of my life for 7 yrs.  I am not ready to let them go.  I just hope my customers will return to me; as I have given them all away to other consultants.  LOL!

I have been so upset and stressed over all of this issue with CTMH, that I have not been able to create or color anything for a while.  Plus, I have been having horrible migraines every day this past 5 weeks.  I am so happy that it is resolved.  

Thanks to everyone for your support during this difficult time.  I really appreciate all of you so very much.  You are the reason I create and the reason I love what I do.
