My Family Keepsakes (Heritage Makers)

Hello Readers!

Springy weather has brought on the urge to design in bright happy colors!  I designed a new 8×20 gallery wrapped canvas last night…  I think it will cheer me up whenever I see it on my office wall.

Canvas prints in the smaller sizes are my new ‘favorite’ product to create and publish in the Heritage Makers Online Studio lately.  They are just so simple to create -being that they consist of only one page/surface to design so it doesn’t take much time to complete (especially if you use a template) and they make lovely home decor items and perfect custom gifts for friends and family.

This month of March we are having a surprise special on Consultant Sign Up Kits for women just like you to join us and spread the word on custom family keepsakes and get paid for it!  Its not a ‘job’ its your own home business.  Becoming a Consultant was the best decision I have ever made.  I receive many positive rewards for helping others to learn how to preserve their memories and precious photos this way.  In fact – if I won the lottery and I never had to ‘work’ again I would keep doing this because it’s become my passion and the personal rewards are so much greater than any paycheck.  I’ve established friendships with my clients and fellow consultants and I have a new ’social life’ to add spice to my life.  My children create their own projects in our Studio and the look on their faces when they open the mail and see the end result of their work is priceless to me.  The emotional moments when we give a special life storybook or family recipe book on birthdays or holidays is just something that NEVER gets old….its something the people in my life look forward to and cherish.  I am my family’s Heritage Maker – and I’m sure that will be scripted onto my gravestone one day (which will be in the shape of a giant storybook – lol).  I want to be known as the person in my family and circle of friends as the one who took the time and made it a priority to preserve our family stories and published our photos into keepsakes for a lifetime – and many other lifetimes – as they pass down from generation to generation.

If you feel the same and would like to find out more about becoming the Heritage Maker in your family or owning your own Heritage Makers home business, please email me for more information heidi@myfamilykeepsakes.com or fill out my contact form here.

Its March First!! Time for the HM Pick of the Month Special…(drum roll please).

This month our Special is the ever-popular 8×8 hardcover book!  This is the most popular of all our book sizes because its big enough to fit a lot of photos and text into and yet small enough that it will fit nicely on any bookshelf.

Purchasing the product credits in advance during a sale means that you save money on the product immediately but you can create and publish your book anywhere within a 24 month period!

Remember specials and sales are only available through your personal consultant (me!) so contact me to purchase your 8×8 credits soon! (CONTACT ME HERE)

I’m an avid reader of Calgary’s Child Magazine and have been for many years now and so I’m excited to be offering this month’s Contest Giveaway!  You could win one of  two Swatch Books this month

A Swatch Book is a perfect way to show off your favorite photos in a small keepsake that fits in your purse. It can be used as a brag book for parents and grandparents, a purse calendar, a child’s ABC book, an Olympic memory book, a mini-photo album, and any other idea you can think of!

In order to create your book using the easy and fun online studio, you will need a high-speed internet connection. Swatch books have 10 double sided pages, rounded corners, and will be professionally published on sturdy acid-free, lignin-free paper with a transparent plastic protective cover.

Some of my clients ~many of whom have just ventured back into their Heritage Makers Studio after Christmas and a length of time away ~ have been asking what “this Club Premier thing”  IS??

Well… for those of you who have even dabbled in traditional scrap-booking, this analogy will help explain the VALUE of Club Premier.

I have no idea where you shop for your scrap-booking supplies, but imagine that for US $99.95 plus tax, you could visit that store for ONE FULL YEAR, and take anything you want from the shelves, anytime you need to. THAT is what Club Premier is like!

You can visit the ‘Premier Gallery’ for one full year and use any of the art pieces that you find there!  If you find a piece of paper or an embellishment with textures or design that you like, but need a different color, you have the ability to change the color!!   Our gallery of 45,000+ pieces of art (with new art added every month) just grew to exponential proportions!   Add to that secure and unlimited off-site photo storage, free product upgrades, and it is a huge value! As an aside, Club Premier gives you free access to each and every template in our ever growing template gallery (5000+) ~ a great place to start in designing your projects!

I am offering ALL who purchase Club Premier today and tomorrow a chance to be my “Mystery Host” and walk away with the bounty of free and discounted product up for grabs ~ the POT OF GOLD is already at over $50 in freebies and some discounted product as well. 

To be entered, please email or call me PRIOR TO 8pm MST Saturday, January 30th.   Be sure to leave a message if I’m unable to answer.  I will be drawing on Sunday, January 31st at approximately 7pm, and will need to speak with the winner at that time to get their wish list.   If I am unable to reach the winner Sunday evening, I will continue drawing until I am able to reach the person drawn, as I MUST close the workshop on Sunday evening.

THE SALE ENDS SUNDAY!

Check out our Template Gallery and Premier Library on my website at www.heritagewithheidi.com, and if you’d like more information I can send you some details.

Warmest Regards,

Heidi

Happy New Year Everyone!

I hope you all enjoyed your December holidays and are looking forward to seeing what 2010 will bring.

January is a big month for Heritage Makers and this year is no exception so lets get started…

Premiere membership is on sale nearly 60% – $99/12 months! That works out to be only $8.25/month!! Unlimited access to thousands and thousands of high quality art for your projects (templates included!) for $8?  That’s a smashing good deal and it’s the only time in 2010 that this special will be offered. If you already have premiere – no worries – the 12 months will add on to the months you have left!  It’s a win-win!

There is another option on this special – you can add a 12×12 book to the 12 months of premiere for $59. So that is $159 for a big 12×12 book credit and a years worth of all access Premiere!

Check out the details on our pretty flyer HERE!

The offer is available until January 31st.

This is the best time to begin creating your 2009 Family Yearbook and fill it with your favorite photos and memories of the past year.  I make one every year and its always a big hit with the family as we turn the pages and remember all the things we have done and how much the kids have grown.

There are beautiful templates in our Template Gallery for you to personalize or you can create your very own from scratch – the choice is yours! Here is one of my favorites which I used last year.

This has to be my favorite surprise announcement sale of the season – CANVAS prints – in ALL sizes are Buy One get one HALF OFF!

CLICK HERE TO SEE!

The special is available until Monday December 7th – and of course this is just to purchase the credits for it – which means you can design and publish it ANY TIME through 2011!

My family and friends marvel over mine when they come to visit   They can’t believe I made it myself and how inexpensive they are.  (call any photo studio and ask what they charge for canvas prints and if you can design it yourself)

I make matching canvas sets each season to match my home decor;

Winter – blue/silver/white colors – and photos of my kids building a snowman

Spring – Flowers, Gardens and a photo of each child in a spring activity

Summer – Family vacation photos, beaches, swimming

Autumn – My favorite time of year – I make the matching set of canvases for my living room walls of the kids in the leaves

This is just one of the ways I use canvases – but there are so many reasons to create a classy canvas print for home decor….What we have the ability to create and share is unique and special and will become heirlooms for our family.

Valentine’s Day – (wedding photo/couple photo/your children)

Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Easter, Grandparent’s Wedding Photo, Pets, Favorite quotes/verses or sayings, New Baby, Engagement, I could go on and on because the ideas are endless….

Anyhow, this is a fabulous price to get the credits now and publish anytime throughout next year and beyond!

Here is the one I recently made for my daughters bedroom – its the new square size 20×20.  CLICK

Ok – thats it! I’m off to work on a new one for Valentine’s Day….

Happy Heritage Making
Heidi
