Broncos lost but my creative brain won!

I create, therefore I am

Today was a bit of a challenge.  I had only a few hours of uninterrupted sleep.  So be it, I pushed myself to get into my craft room and get some stuff done!

I used the limited edition stamp set #30yearsofhappy CC1030 on all of my cards that I created today.

Enjoyed Montage!

My daughter had her final production of Montage this evening.  I enjoyed the show!  We are so blessed to have such amazing and talented teens, makes my ♡ happy!

With that being said, I didn't finish my projects today.  I do have some great ideas brewing so tomorrow,  while watching football,  I'll be crafting.

Go Broncos!!

September is the beginning of crafting for the holidays.


Where has the year gone??

Summer 2014 has come to an end.  It is that time of year when school is in session.  The kids are back to the grind.  I'm a mom of four amazing kids.  Three are still in public school and my oldest is in his first year of college.  I'm super busy keeping everyone on schedule and trying to balance all that comes with a new school year.

Realizing how quickly time cruises by, I said to myself that September is the perfect time to start on my holiday crafting.  I have a huge extended family and we stick to a budget for gifts as well as decorations for our home.  Why spend a bunch of money on things when you can make these gifts and show your friends and family how much you care?

Close To My Heart has an amazing array of beautiful papers, card sets, Workshops On The Go for scrapbooking and card making, as well as some pretty neat Cricut® cartridges for additional creativity. 


This week I am going to be working with my National Scrapping Month #30yearsofhappy stamps.  This is offered as our September Constant Campaign.




September is National Stamping Month, and Close To My Heart is ready to celebrate all month long! When you spend $30 on any current retail-priced stamps during the month of September, you qualify to receive the exclusive C-sized stamp set #30yearsofhappy for FREE! This special offer is part of our celebration of National Stamping Month and in honor of our ongoing celebration of our founder and CEO Jeanette Lynton’s 30-year anniversary in the scrapbooking and stamping industry. The exclusive stamp set features 30 mini images and sentiments perfectly suited for 30 days of happy stamping! Plus, make sure you check out Close To My Heart’s Facebook page and Instagram during September to follow all the ways we’re celebrating #30yearsofhappy for a full 30 days!
