My FAVORITE Close To My Heart Product

This is my new favorite Close To My Heart product! I recently purchased this amazing ink tower and I'm so impressed with how nicely it stores my inks. The inks are now so much more accessible since I can see them all in this neat and orderly fashion. My favorite feature is the spindle that the tower sits on. I can easily rotate the tower to see inks on either side! And since the tower is vertical, it doesn't take up much space on my desk at all! It also holds Close To My Heart markers nicely because it grips them inside each marker slot. The tower has a tray that can be placed on top that can store other ink pads and things - I keep my handy stamp cleaner and double-scrubber up there so that when I go to do my stamping, everything is right there where I need it! : )

Cards Created Using the Cherry-O Kit

I LOVE the new Cherry-O Kit from Close to My Heart! It is so bright and cheery - with cherries! Cherries have not especially been 'my thing,' but this is one set I could not resist. What do you think? ; )

My Latest Album Project

Tim's aunt and grandma are going to visit their side of the family in Michigan and they wanted an album that would showcase some pics of the part of the family that lives out here. What follows is the finished product of my most recent album project. Enjoy!

I am a Stamping & Scrapbooking Consultant!!

I recently became a Close to My Heart ® Consultant. CTMH is a stamping and scrapbooking company that specializes in acrylic stamps. Their products are top-of-the-line in the stamping and scrapbooking industries and I am proud to endorse them! I have been working on creating pages (and cards) using some of the supplies that came in my consultant kit. I have decided that the best way to kick-off and perhaps promote my new business is by using this blog to showcase a few of these amazing products and to provide examples of how they can be used. Please enjoy my first set of samples below:

Both of the above pages were completed entirely from the "Veranda" Level 1 and 2 Kits, including the "Veranda" Level 2 My Stickease® Assortment. I also used the "Follow Your Heart" and the "Elegant Script" My Acrylics ® stamp sets.


This adorable page was created using the "More to Adore" Level 1 kit. The flowers are from the new Just Blooms ® Paper Flower set in "Spring Blossom."

If you are interested in any of the above products or are interested in seeing more, please call me or e-mail me! I have also added a link (see my "Links" section to the right of this page) to the latest cataloge for you shopping convenience and viewing pleasure.

Lastly, if you know more people who might be interested in paper crafting, such as stamping and scrapbooking, please pass on my info! I am currently looking for hostesses who are interested in hosting a "Gathering" in their home with their friends to earn FREE products!

Thanks for looking and for passing it on! : )
