USPS to Canada Discontinued
HM News & Announcements
We’ve recently encounter a lot of concern and problems with our Canadian consultants and clients when shipping products through USPS. With the USPS option, Canadians are having to pay Canada post brokerage fees, that ultimately make the shipment more expensive than sending the product through UPS. In addition, USPS has proved to be unreliable and expensive for our Canadian customers. We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused to our Canadian friends. As of November 18, 2008 we will no longer offer the USPS shipping option to Canada. We are hopeful that you will now have a much better shipping experience.

My WHY...
I used to ask myself Why? Why did I want so badly to start another business. Do you want to know Why... because I believe in this company and the values and integrity of Heritage Makers. We strive on helping others preserve their heritage through storybooks.
Soon after I was married, my sister had been in town from Ohio and I brought ALL my wedding photos over to my mom's house so my sister could look through my wedding album. She left and not thinking twice about it, I just left my album there sitting on the coffee table in my mom's family room. July 14, 2004, at 2:13 AM, my mom's house was hit by lightning. It was the very first monsoon storm of the season. And within 7 minutes the house was completely destroyed and had burned down to the ground with ALL my Wedding Pictures still sitting on the coffee table in the family room.
When I got to the house I tried running inside and the firefighters held me back. I wanted so badly to rescue all my mom's things. (I had taken her to the airport that morning). When the salvage company walked out of that house with my album, I was so sick to my stomach. I cried about the fire, but kept my composure. When I saw my album, I lost it. A house fire was my biggest fear as a little child and now I was facing that harsh reality. Alone, my family was all out of town. I was swamped with the media who wanted interviews about how I felt about the house burning down. How did they think I felt?
I encourage all of you to get your photos scanned to preserve your memories and not let them fade away.
Four years later, I found Heritage Makers and was able to remake my wedding album. It cost me only $69 plus the $25 for Studio Premier. That was way better than the $750+ is was going to cost to remake a traditional scrapbook.
Photo Scanning
Heritage Makers has partnered with Kodak® to bring you the all-new, revolutionary, ScanParty. As a Heritage Makers customer, you can be on the cutting-edge of this incredible scanning service. Call me to schedule individual, in-home scanning sessions or to attend a Workshop. Help your friends and family preserve their photographs by telling them about this incredible service.
Pricing as follows:
Party Attendee (25 scans) $.20/scan
0-99 scans $.39/scan
100-499 scans $.29/scan
500+ scans $.19/scan
FAMILY GROUP SCANNING
That's right get your family to help pitch in the cost of scanning and get ALL your photos scanned and I will make everyone a copy of the CD of pictures.
FAQ's
Q: What dpi do we scan at?
A: You can select 300, 600, or 1200. We recommend 600 for very small photos that are going to be blown up on a page; 300 is plenty for most Heritage Makers situations. If you plan to use a 4x6 photo to fill a full page of a large book or poster, you should scan at 600 dpi. If you scan at 1200 dpi, the files may be too large to upload to the Heritage Makers website.
Q: What sizes of pictures can be scanned?
A: Any size from 2"x2.5" to 8.5"x34". When scanning very small pictures, place them slightly to the left, or place them on the scanner along with some larger photos. Otherwise, the paper sensor may not pick them up.
Along with the Kodak scanner, I now offer photo enhancements, red eye reduction, and photo rotation services. Ask for pricing. Don't miss out on this awesome opportunity! Call me or email me today! I rent the scanner every Tuesday and have it at my weekly workshops in Glendale. If you'd like an in-home scan party contact me to schedule that today!

My Modeling Portfolio Book
I was getting into modeling back in 2003, then my life got crazy. My dad died and I got married then pregnant and modeling got pushed to the side. For so long I've wanted to display all my pictures, but there they sat in the closet in a folder. I had a credit expiring so, I figured I'd make a book all about me! I'm so excited! I only took me a few hours to put all the pictures in the book. I just did a really simple and basic book. I'm so excited to share this with everyone. Especially photographers! You can now create these for your clients and what an awesome portfolio you have to give to them.

NEW Digi-Calendar
I create a new Digi-Calendar that will show where all the Digi-Crops are being held throughout the valley. A Digi-Crop is where we all gather at someone's house and work on our projects. There are lots of consultants there to help customers with their storybooks, calendars, cards, posters, etc. It's great because you can actually finish a whole project in 1 day! I'm so excited!!! This will benefit all of our customers because then you can attend a Digi-Crop near your house. (Saves on gas!)
Plus, you can bring your old photos and get them digitized with the Kodak high speed scanner for .19/photo! Or if you and your family member want to split the cost, I'm having a great special! Get 5 family members photos together and for $200 EACH, I will scan ALL your photos and then make everyone a CD with ALL the pictures on them. That's a great savings! Especially if you have TONS of photos! Call me or email me today to get your photos scanned. And to get your FREE Heritage Makers account today!

Reunion 08
In September we are having our Heritage Makers Reunion in Anaheim, CA. I'm so excited to go and get pumped about my business. There is so much more that I want to learn. I'm really excited to take the kids to Disneyland afterwards, too.
This company is truly revolutionizing the digital scrapbooks era. We recently partnered with Kodak and offer scanning services. I think is awesome because on regular flat bed scanners is takes so long to scan your photos and can be VERY overwhelming to anyone. Who wants to sit at their computer scanning pictures for hours at a time. I don't have that kind of time. But now with the Kodak scanners - I can scan 20-30 photos per minute!!! I'm so excited.
I can't wait to see all the new and exciting things that are going to be released at Reunion. Hopefully NEW products and more partnering with other large companies to make everyone's HM experience the best!

Saving the Legacy: Fred Donkin Jr.
My mom and I have been working on this life story book for my Grandpa. He served in the Navy in WWII. The University of Utah has been going to interview the vets to collect their life histories and to preserve the war stories. For the last 26 years, I've never really known my Grandpa. Doing this book for him has inspired me greatly! I would sit up at night reading about him and his accomplishments, I couldn't get enough of it. I had to read more and more. We had a lot of photos, but wanted more so we would google images and see what we could find. We found pictures of the ships he was on and crew members, etc. It was such an amazing experience! I can't wait to finish the one that we have started for my Grandma. I'm so excited about this book! Check it out at the bottom of my blogs!
New Workshops
So, I haven't been on here forever! So much has happened in the last couple months with Heritage Makers! First of all, I went to regionals and they introduced new items! You can now make individual 12x12 scrapbook pages. Also, you can now make decks of playing cards! They are so cool! I just made a deck that has our trip to Huntington Beach on them. The website just has so many new features, you really have to check it out!
On another note, we now offer workshops instead of celebrations! Who really wants to go and sit to another person talk right. Well now, I pop in a 13 minute DVD (or through a webinar) and it walks you through the system and shows you how to use it. Then, we get to work! I take your orders and we let our imaginations take over. I just did a show and was so excited! It went so well!

Following in my Shadow
My mom was hosting a Heritage Makers Celebration for me. So before the celebration, Hailee (my 3 year old) was "helping" me set up my table. It was so cute because she ran into her room at her Mamo's house and brought out a whole bunch of her books and started setting them up on the table. I asked her what she was doing and she told me she getting ready for HER Heritage Makers party. She was going to show everyone her books, but they can't buy hers, just credits so they could make their own books. It was So Cute!!!
This is My First Post!
So this is my first post... I've been wanting to do this for so long. I found this new company where you can make amazing storybooks/ scrapbooks online and it's so EASY! I absolutely love it! I made my first book back in May to give to my husband as an Anniversary gift. You have to understand since we'd been married, we never did get to have a scrapbook of our wedding. The first storm of the monsoon back in 2004 burned her house to the ground with ALL our wedding photos inside. To reprint everything was going to cost around $500, so I figured I was out of luck. Then my best friend had a Heritage Makers party, I showed up just as it was ending. The second I saw the books, I fell in LOVE! Oh my gosh, they were actual storybooks, like the ones you buy for your kids, but you've totally created them yourself. Anyways that night I went home and started my book. I finished it in less than a week just working on it while my 3 year old was napping. It turned out amazing! The best part, once you upload your photos to your Heritage Makers account; they will be there forever. They will be safe if the house burns down, your computer crashed, or gets stolen. All of which have happened to me and have lost it all multiple times. And after that I was hooked. I wanted to be a part of this wonderful company. So I because an Independent Consultant for Heritage Makers. I've only been working this business since July, but it is seriously the best company I have ever worked for, I've worked for many companies.
