New Year.. New opportunity to refresh, reset and move toward your dream.

Im certain Im not alone in my end of year goal setting and reflection.  This past year has been well rounded... with ups and downs, goals met and failed miserably.    One goal I met was to  earn an incentive trip with Close to My Heart, I absolutely could not have achieved this goal without my customers and family support.  I am grateful!!!

That feeling of knowing I earned it ( Mexico 2017), has set a fire within me to earn the next one to Thailand in 2018.  I know today, your support once again will be required.  You can support me in multiple ways:  Allow me to be your hometown scrapbooking supply store {shop online with me, attend my monthly crops and shop discounted retired or current products from my in-home inventory}, shop at expo events,  or Join my team to build your own business.    You can shop online or Join my team from my website  Dawns Website to shop and Join my team







Id be thrilled to have you as a customer, team member consultant and  friend.  Let me know if you have questions about paper crafting, Close to My Heart, my website  or shopping with me in my home.   Every month I have an online party open and offer behind the scenes a special for returning customers { when you shop I keep track if you have earned over time enough credits for hostess rewards Ill let you know}   I know a deal you don't have to keep track of.   New Year, new projects... get crafting....   Cheers to a New Year

Mini-Albums are not only fun sized, they are fantastic gifts for friends and family ALL Year Long.
Ive shared with you my WHY before and that is simply... my family.   As GP's Alzheimer's progressed it was "tough"...  actually lets be honest it stretched our capabilities of patience, sleep, and pulled at our heartstrings knowing his memories and words became trapped.  Over time we had created mini-albums to help him recall memories from long and short term...  those albums helped him to communicate with us.. just by pointing to the pictures.  Sure the stories became jumbled and then almost silent...BUT his face expressions were vivid ( joy, sad and frustrations).   So with so many families living across the US and Overseas.. mini-albums helps us stay connected in a very real way. CTMH and Persnickety prints has joined for a special partner ship.

DAWN HINCKLEY IND CONSULTANT


New and Noteworthy ---
As many of you know I retired from the Air Force in November of 2014.. Its been a busy and exciting time of transition, one of the biggest transitions Ive made is my attention and time committed to my scrapbooking business.  I am excited to have more time to commit to something I truly enjoy; memory preservation and teaching other people how to craft.  It brings me joy and adds balance in my life.  I have recognized some shortfalls as well during this transition time;  my biggest shortfall is that I don't schedule enough time to do what I enjoy.  With that said Im committed to share more artwork with you, help you to schedule time ( Im committed  to at least one  or two monthly crops open to you) and to grow my business.  Id like to be your hometown scrapbook store with crop space available to you at least monthly... or you could schedule some extra time with me :)   Im game to share and grow my passion for memory preservation and my business with you.
