CLOSE TO MY HEART
Dear Margit,

Hi there,



the Taste of Summer special is over - if you missed getting some of those delicious papers - never fear! I still have a few paper packs left. If you hurry, you can still get one, contact me now!

It is June - that means July is right on its heal and I will be going to Disneyland! Yes, I was able to score a couple of tickets from a wonderful friend for free, but the exciting news is I will also score new exciting products from Close to my Heart again! I will return with lots of great new ideas, the new book - but you, my friends will have to wait until August! The only way you can get a peak at the new toys earlier is to sign up as a consultant (ha).

This month I will keep busy with going to boyscout camp - yes, you read that right - right after I teach my card class. Then off to convention and I will have another workshop. If you are lucky to live around me, you may get a peak at one or two new items!

In the meantime:

Here are some great links for you to check out at any time to see some great tutorials, videos and other hints and tips!



I keep updating it on a regular basis, follow me, share it with your friends! My life is still going nuts, but I have figured out - being creative helps :)

If you like facebook more, you may want to consider checking my facebook page on

facebook business page

I am starting to add some of the images here under "Virtual Yard Sale" of the items I have available for sale in my facebook page! So, keep checking!

Like my page, share it, pin what you like - you may even want to check out my Pinterest page.

Oh - I did manage to make another video! I wanted to share how easy it is to put our new rolling tote together. I added the video on my blog, but here is the link as well.

A place for everything
Close To My Heart offers a whole suite of organizational products, from fashionable totes to heavy-duty hard case organizers . I really like these products, because they are so versatile. You can use them for your scrapbooking or stamping items or beading, sewing, quilting - are you in Direct Sales and have to organize other items?

We have the tools to get you organized! The dividers are removable and movable. Besides, the plastic cases have a beautiful design on them - they are not just plain plastic! You have got to love them!

By the way - those scissors right in front are some of the best tools I have ever had - I have had my scissors for many years. One of the best multi-use tools!

What are you waiting for to get organized?

Order some organizers and get everything in your craft room in its place. »

Hello and thank you for stopping by!

This is my first attempt on a blog - can you tell? I am sure you can. From what I have learned about blogs they are like an online journal and you are getting a peak into my soul ...

At this time I am trying to learn how to post my artwork with watermark and copyright and all that jazz -but I a, learning. My plan is to post my work and along with it I will explain what I used and how I made the project.

As we go along, I will also give you a peak into my life. I will share some pictures of my family, places we have been, places we have visited. So, please come back and visit often. Just know, that I am very new to this blogging thing! So, at this time - any help you can give me is highly appreciated in growing my skills in "blogging".

If you live close to me and you would like to join me in my craft place or one my crops please, check my calendar for any upcoming workshops!

A scrapbooker's quilting bee!
