Holiday Expression 2018

Holiday Expression 2018



Oh my gosh! Everyone who has seen this new book believes this is one of the best books ever! But you have to see it to believe it. That is easier done that you believe - all you need to do is click here :). You can page through the book now. 

Normally, I would have introduced a new Annual Ideabook and a Holiday Expressions book - but this time there is no Annual book - this is it. This book has all of our papers, inks, embellishments. In 3 months, we will have a new Seasonal Book and our inks, papers, tools will carry over - our kits may not. The great news for you is, when you place an order you will get a free copy! Yeah!

What is in this book? Here are just some of the new things:
  • We added "Story by Stacy"
  • 6 new paper collections
  • 2 Cut Above kits
  • Tons of new stamp sets
  • More Thin cuts
  • We have changed our color palette - you will love it!
  • organizers
  • embellishments
  • ribbons, ribbons, oh and ribbons
  • a new digital cricut collection
That is it - hope you will love it as much as I do. If you missed some of the items from the previous books, you can always stop by in the clearance section or in the Going Soon section.

A Year of Great Products!

A Year of Great Products!

by Close To My Heart
Happy New Year from Close To My Heart! 2015 has been amazing, and we know 2016 will be just as good! At this time of looking back and looking forward, we thought we would show you some of our favorite products that debuted in 2015 and some products we think will top 2016’s charts from the brand new Seasonal Expressions 1, which goes live January 1!
Let’s start with five of our favorites from 2015: 
1. InstalifeIt isn’t any surprise that this adorable line was a top-seller last year. Instalife makes creating a fun-sized, trendy album of mini memories quick and easy.
2. Fundamentals. Whether it’s filled with papers, stickers, or assortments, a Fundamentals package is always a lifesaver. Because these staples come in our exclusive colors, you’ll always have the materials to match your latest layout or card. They’re helpful and adorable!

Our paper packets are well loved for their cute and coordinating designs that can liven up any project! Several of our paper packets were top-selling items this year, with Zoe being number one.
4. Cut Above. We love Cut Above because it helps you create charming, handmade cards in a flash. For instance, our friend, Dapper Giraffe, and his card kit will get you ten party-themed cards faster than you can say “Happy Birthday!”

A lot of you are taking advantage of our Stamp of the Month sets—proof that you know a good deal when you see one! You can always get the current Stamp of the Month for a really great price with a qualifying purchase. Like you, we love a good deal. :)
2015 was a pretty great year, wasn’t it? And 2016 is going to be just as great! Here are five of our favorites from the new Seasonal Expressions 1 that we think really set the tone for an exciting new year:
1. Everyday Life™. Our planner system has already been a huge hit, and we know everyone is going to love using it all year long! We also know you’ll love the My Crush® Everyday Life pages and the Everyday Life washi tape, which, when paired with the planner pages, help you organize your life and preserve your memories at the same time! Also, have you heard about January’s special? We’ll be offering an exclusive Picture My Life™ scrapbooking program that will complement your planner perfectly!

2. Workshops Your Way. We are so excited about this new program! Our new Workshops Your Wayscrapbooking kits come with materials and instructions for creating three scrapbook layouts and a Picture My Life layout! And since we know you love using up every last bit, we’ve also designed adorable cards you can make using the remaining workshop materials and a few extra items.Check out our best products of 2015 and our favorites coming in 2016! #CloseToMyHeart #ctmh #NewYear #bestof2015
3. Thin Cuts. These little beauties look like cookie cutters and let you cut shapes that coordinate perfectly with certain stamp sets. Just put them through your die cutting machine with a piece of paper, and then stamp the matching image onto the shape. 
4. Base & Bling Necklace Cards. Do you love using Base & Bling to create personalized gifts? Wait ‘til you see these! Using the My Acrylix® Friendly Wishes stamp set, you can stamp a special message onto the necklace card, add a splash of watercolor, and attach the necklace. Slide it all into the sealable bag, and you’re ready to give someone a dazzling gift!

You’ve loved them in gold, you’ve loved them in black—and now you’re going to love them in white! Picture My Life overlays are clear cards with foil designs that you can slip over your photos or cards in your pocket scrapbooking for an extra bit of flair.

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!
