August Is Here And So Is Timber!

Plaid, trees, wood, axes & the outdoors ~TIMBER~

August brings in everything you need to document your time in nature.

My older brother loves to fly fish.  He has spent days outdoors catching, sometimes releasing, trout.  All year long he spends time out in the rivers and streams.   

These are just a few of his amazing photos he has taken while out having fun.

Close To My Heart has created the perfect paper and stamp collection to help you preserve your memories in the woods, mountains or water.  I put together the Timber Cardmaking Workshop so now I'm stocked up on more neutral cards that I can send to my friends that aren't into flowers, pastel colors, or bling.  You can purchase your own workshop here.

Today I am going to show you a little bit of what Aurora is all about.  

Aurora is one of the new paper collections in the Idea Book.  

It features Eggplant, Sapphire, Peacock, Evergreen, Sage, Linen and Charcoal colors.

I absolutely love this pallet!

The cardstock, inks, paper packs and accessories are all in coordinating colors to allow anyone to create amazing works of art.

One of my favorite items from the collection is the paper pack + sticker sheet.  The 12"x 12" sticker sheet has coordinating images along with some FABULOUS foil accents!

The 12" x 12" paper pack includes 6 sheets, 2 each of 3 double-sided designs PLUS 1/2" zip strips

The coordinating 12" x 12" cardstock includes 12 sheets, 3 each of Sage, Peacock, Sapphire, and Charcoal

There are also some totally amazing NEW assorted see-through acrylic shapes.

Picture My Life Cards are also included in the Aurora collection.  These are great for pocket scrapbooking, card making, regular scrapbooking, slam books, and much, much more!

Last but not least there is the NEW Cricut Aurora Collection!!!  Yes, you heard me right, new Cricut cuts. <3
