I joined the Creative Home Arts Club as a Life Member back in Sept. of 2004, member number [protected]. Paid $340.00 plus for the membership. Everything was fine in the beginning. Magazines where great until the changed to scrap booking only. Then everything stopped. I didn't get magazines, nothing. Now you can't even log onto the site. I realize things change in 14 years - but really - Life Member should mean Life. They should be required to refund membership fee's.
I have often wondered what ever happened. I see all the posts from above, with the general consensus being "ME TOO!" Does anybody know where they went? Where is there warehouse full of stuff...that could have been distrubuted to the lifetime members? Too late now I am sure. It would be nice to get an idea of what happened. I agree with Wally L, post listed above this one...The LIFETIME membership fee was probably an attempt to save the company from shut down. If you know anything, you can contact me via e-mail at MidnightCakeFactory@aol.com. THANKS! cj
Hmmm. I checked whois.com to see who owned this domain. Nobody. It's available for $10 per year if you want it, but I suspect that it'll attract a lot of angry customers for awhile. I also suspect that "Lifetime" was used to coax people into paying an unreasonably high price before they shut down.
Found my lifetime membership card and literature today while cleaning out my files. What happened to these people? I feel like I was robbed because I sure didn't get a "life" membership.
I have been a member since 2002 and like another member stated I forgot all about it until I came across my Membership Card. Has anyone heard what happened? I feel we should get some type of refund.
I've had the same experience cleaning out a file box and found paperwork with membership number. Still haven't heard what happened. By the way I do not like scrap booking.

I've been a member since 11/02 and Yes I paid my membership off as well, and have a life time membership! But that doesn't look like it means anything!
Same for me, a member since 2008. I did get a pie plate with my initial etched on it. The plate is glass with handles on each side. Haven’t heard a thing since. It was a great pie plate and I use it a lot. Pretty expensive one though. Like $380.00. Sounds like we all got ripped off.
Me too. Anyone find out what has happened? did they close down?
I am a charter member since 2002. Sadly I also have not received anything for a very long time . Have they shut down and we weren't notified? Frustrated.
I also joined as a lifetime member. Same complaints...
I have had the exact same experience. I am or was a lifetime member and paid a nice price for that. However, I never got the perks promised and then nothing. I wrote emails, letters, etc. But never got a response. I think one of the last magazines I received was in 2005. How can they make such promises and then just disappear? How can they be held accountable?
Please see my comment above. No communication from anyone FOREVER!
Do you still exist?
What about Lifetime Memberdhip Benefits? Do THEY still exist.
Lifetime Member since 08/2006
Please respond.
I am finding the same issue. I have been a member since 08/2006 and have neither heard from anyone or received anything for such a long time, I had forgotten about you until I cleaned out a desk and found my membership card.
What's up? Are you still around? Do life members receive any benefits at this time?
