Close To My Heart Catalog

November–December 2019

You can now order online from the BRAND NEW November-December Catalog!



I just finished making my Mom 15 of the Cedar & Pine Cardmaking Workshop cards and boy was it fast, easy and beautiful.  I am all about the ease of creating cards that can be duplicated without any hassle.  To be honest, it was one of the smoothest and shortest card making sessions that I have had in a long while.

Fall and Halloween Activities are FUN to scrapbook!

I used the Spooktacular Scrapbooking Workshop along with the Autumn Blessings Stamp + Thin Cuts to create some cute pages about our last two fun outings with the triplets.  It was their first time dressing up for Trunk or Treat.  They had so much fun!  The pumpkin stamps and thing cuts made making the pages so much simpler.  I also included a few pages of the Pocket Plus™ Memory Protectors™.  They allowed me to add more photos and decorations without having to do full 12 x 12 layouts.  I LOVE using the Pocket Plus™ Memory Protectors™  and I know you will too!  They come in so many different sizes I am sure you will find the ones that fit your projects.

Fall Is In The Air

 Welcome October!

Fall is in the air and I am ready to get into my holiday crafting zone.

 This month's feature paper collection is Hawthorn.  

Warm, earthy tones and vintage designs combine in rich harmony and really bring on fall.


I am getting out my paper, cutter, adhesive and creative brain because I am ready to craft like crazy!

I am in love with this month's featured paper suite, Hawthorn.  The colors that are in this paper pack are as follows:  Sangria, Paprika, Saffron, Sage, Toffee, Sapphire, Charcoal and Pebble.  They create the perfect palate for fall and can be used in so many different ways.

Back to school photos really standout when backed with Sage and Saffron patterned paper.

Today I will put together some cards and scrapbooking pages with my Hawthorn Picture My Life™ Cards.  These cards can be used for pocket scrapbooking, traditional scrapbooking, card making and many more papercrafting projects.

I've been playing around with this super set and created a few cards for Halloween.  I might change them up a bit and use a few different colors but I still enjoy the way they turned out.
