Create a Summer Photo Album


Now that summer is really with us, it's a great time to start thinking about placing those beach/outdoor pictures on some great layout pages! I am offering a workshop where you will create 10 12x12 layout pages using the exclusive Close to My Heart Footloose paper packet.  The cost of this workshop if $42.00 which includes all papers and embellishments.  If cutting paper stresses you out (it's therapy for some), you can hire me to cut your paper ahead of time by adding $5.00 to your workshop kit price.  Not sure about what adhesive to use? I even have that for $5.00 (Tombow Mono Adhesive-Permanent).
Close-up of embellishments

When can you make these wonderful pages?  I am offering two separate workshops - Wed., July 18 and Wed. July 25 from any time you want to start after 5:00 PM until ????   OR Saturday, August 4 at 10:00 am until ?????   (Light snacks provided - meals on your own.)

Invite your friends to join you!  Supplies must be ordered and paid for one week prior to workshop date (July 11 and July 28) to ensure delivery.  (This paper kit will not be available after July 31st.)

(This Workshop has been designed by my talented fellow CTMH Consultant Tresa Black www.FabulouslyArtsy.com)

July will be a super fun month!!! Read on . . . .




July is a very fun time to be a Close to My Heart consultant - the July Stamp of the Month is wonderful collection of phrases and is called Live Out Loud!  It is yours for only $5.00 and a $50.00 order.


Another fun reason is we have an awesome special called Perfect Pairs - by placing an on line order of $75.00 you will receive a paper packet and coordinating embellishment for FREE!  These paper packets are no longer available or will shortly be no longer available and include your choice of Mischief, Dreamin' Fanfare, Lucky, Mayberry, Sophia, Believe or Wonderland.

The third fun reason is we have our annual Convention.  There is nothing like the friendship and fun that 2,000+ crazy women (and a few men!) can have together - and this year we will be in Dallas, TX!  Yep, I'm dusting off my cowboy boots and hat, it'll be a great time and our guest speaker is . . . . Stacy Julian!  You may know her from Simply Scrapbooks magazine (RIP) also from her online classes through Big Picture Scrapbooking.

Why a blank book?  The fourth reason is the Autumn/Winter Close to My Heart Idea Book is revealed to consultants at convention!!!  I cannot wait to see the beautiful new scrapbooking paper kits, new stamp sets, possibly a new design on our markers (they have been retired), possibly a new How To book (as our books are now readily available at Michael's, Amazon, and other booksellers) - who knows what they have in store for us - last year we were so excited with the exclusive Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge - Wow!  The new Idea Book will be available to my friends and blogger buddies at the end of July!  Please contact me for your copy! 

I'd better get our my hankie, I'll be needing it for all the drooling I'll be doing in July!!!!  

Last Day for Stampaganza

Just a reminder that today is the last day to order two Close to My Heart My Acrylix stamp sets and get a third of equal or lesser value for FREE!!!!!   It's an awesome deal that doesn't come very often!

Cricut Word Collage

I made this with my Cricut - actually I copied it from the Cricut Craft Room ideas - it's a canvas I had (yeah, used something up!), and then used Close to My  Heart Barn Red and Outdoor Denim stamp pads for the flag look.  Used a dauber and Black CTMH ink for the letters.  Sorry it's sideways.  Can't wait to make different ones for different holidays.
