Hello September!

New Catalog!

Hello Beautiful Ladies!  It's a new month and I am so excited to say not one but TWO NEW CATALOGS to share with you.  As you can see on our front cover we are continuing to celebrate all year long with 35 wonderful creative years.  

I just love these covers!  Close To My Heart has changed their catalogs to two, we have a Core Products Annual Catalog filled with products available all year!  

We also will have a seasonal catalog every two months jam packed with more amazing products and specials.  These catalogs are currently available to see on my website by clicking here, order your own copy,  or place an order on my website and receive a FREE copy.  

Catalog Peek

Let's give you a peek at some of my favorite products from the catalogs.  I love Thin Cuts with their coordinating stamp sets and this one is my absolute favorite!

This is the Perk Up Stamp with Thin Cuts and I think it's adorable!  I plan to use this for Teacher, Christmas, Fall and Birthday cards.  The possibilities are endless with this set.  I'm waiting on mine to arrive and I can't wait to start creating with it.


This next one is BIG!  I'm thrilled that Close To My Heart is now offering custom pack cardstock.  Now what exactly does that mean?  It means we can all order any color cardstock in packs of 12 sheets or packs of 24 in whichever color combo you choose.  Yes, ma'am, you choose the colors so long as whichever color you choose has a minimum of 2.  That's it, just 2.  So if you want 10 pink and 2 blue, CTMH has you covered, or 3 yellow, 2 pink, 2 sapphire, and 5 Carolina, then you're fine.  Isn't that so cool? 

Who's loving our Mix-In paper packs?  Me! I've so enjoyed these packs for their colors, their patterns and the price!  Here's another great packet for card-making, scrapbooking, a mini album or just about any crafting project.


Do you love using a Cricut?  If you do then you are in the right place!  As some of you may know, Close To My Heart partnered with Provo a few years back and created some wonderful cartridges that can only be purchased with a CTMH consultant,  Some of these cartridges have retired.  I am happy to announce that Cricut has gone 100% digital and are making these cartridges available once again through my personal affiliate link!  By clicking  My Cricut Link you will go directly to my website.  You can then click on the Shop Cricut green symbol under "Join My Community" and it will take you straight to my website.  Those of you Cricuteers out there that have Cricut Access, you will have the access to CTMH images, however when your subscription is over you loose access.  Close To My Heart are images you can't find anywhere else and you'll so want to keep them.  Each cartridge is filled with awesome images and I SO, SO appreciate you using my affiliate link to support my small business.  I thank you for that!  Plus if you buy a Cricut Collection from my link I will thank you with a mini stamp set!



There is also a new Circut collection, Complete Creativity you will have fun creating with.  We also have in the catalog digital bundles and separate images like the Family History tree image above to choose from or bundles like this one. 



Specials

This year we are celebrating National Stamping Month with Share the Seasons Stamp and Thin Cuts. What a beautiful cheery fun bundle to send love to everyone on your list.


Share your holiday season making fun cards for Christmas and gift giving.  There is nothing better than receiving a handmade card made especially by someone special.   I'm so liking the mini clip holder!


The bundle comes with two stamp sets for Fall and Christmas.  You can purchase each item separately or as a bundle and save 30%.  Visit my website to make your purchase.  


Stamp of the Month

Each month Close To My Heart offers an exclusive D-size stamp set only available during the month.  When you place an order of $50 or more you receive a special pricing for the Stamp of the Month of ONLY $5!!  It's a great deal you can't pass up especially when it's an awesome stamp set not available after the month is over.

Random Act of Cardness


This month's stamp set is full of wonderful sayings to use for card making and so much more.  Look at these two beautiful cards.

Create this cute mini-album for a Dad, Grandpa, and more.  It would make such a heartfelt gift to a love one and it comes in a bundle with everything you need including an exclusive wood album cover.



The kit comes with a stamp set designed for that special someone with prompt questions your child or you can complete to make that gift personable.  


The bundle comes with warm masculine colors from our "Into the Wild" paper collection, cardstock, exclusive stamp set, twine, and wooden mini album with rings.

May Specials

Hello and Happy May to you!!

Sometimes we all need a little break and I really needed one.  I have a passion for creating from paper crafting to sewing and so much more, however at times we need to stop and help family which is what I've been doing for the past two years.  I've been helping mom and my siblings which family always comes first in my book.  Things are getting better and I'm back to crafting! Just in time too so I can share a brand new catalog with you.

So let's get started!!



This year marks 35 Years of Creativity for Close To My Heart. Wow!! Each cover this year has been awesome AND there have been 35% off on products to celebrate.  I'm positive there is another one coming soon, possibly Memorial Day? Who's knows but I"m crossing my fingers.  



This is the last catalog and although it just finished, I just had to share it with you.  This is the founder of Close To My Heart.  She has such a true passion for preserving memories and such a great personality with a big heart not to mention one very smart lady.  She has created a company still in business for 35 years even at tines when our economy was down.  I just love this cover.

National Scrapbooking Month

Celebrate this month with the World Is Yours paper packet, stamp set, cut above kit and coordinating cardstock.  The patterned paper is perfect for documenting a trip close to home or far away on an awesome adventure you don't want to forget.  


This exclusive kit is available only this month and has many bundle options from card making to scrapbooking.  You can even choose to purchase only the paper packet, with or without the stamp set or an everyday album available with page protectors.  

Made With Love

Create a beautiful keepsake for Mom, Grandma or someone special in your life with this beautiful exclusive mini album.  The cover to the album is made of wood with a die-cut heart in the middle.  It comes with rings to assemble it and several purchasing options with or without the stamp set.  


This is such a fun kit to make with a daughter, granddaughter, or son to give to their love one.  A true keepsake they will treasure forever.


Here is the Made with Love kit with stamp set and patterned paper.  Please note that there are two stamp set versions, one with American spellings and one with British spellings such as "favourite"so make sure you order the right kit/stamp set.


Here is a closer look at the stamp set.  I really like the fact that this set is so versatile and can be used for so many projects.  Can't wait to start creating with it!


Bring Back Zoe

We have another fan favorite special - Zoe is back!  



For a limited time the Zoe paper packet collection is back!  It has beautiful soft colors perfect for card making or scrapbooking.  They have created a great kit with layouts and card designs you'll love.  You can also purchase the paper and stamp set separately and create your own designs.

Stamp of the Month

This month's Stamp of the Month "To My Bestie" is an exclusive stamp you can purchase for only $5 when you place a $50 purchase on my website.  It's a great stamp set to create beautiful cards for your bestie or any artwork for that best friend!

You've Got Class

During the month of September we have several awesome specials for you to choose from.  Be careful because you might want them all.  First off for all you Moms and Grandmas we have the  "You Got Class"  kit.


I have two little ones in 2nd and 4th grade and when I saw this kit I knew I had to have it.  I've started my kit and it is perfect for to save all those memorable papers your children bring home from school. The kit is easy to complete and keeps you organized!


Here is a closer look at each page you will make for all the school years.  The kit uses a folio which is exactly like a file folder.  You decorate each side of the folder and create a divider inside that will keep your papers separated for each year.  There are easy follow instructions you download to help you complete the kit.

Magical Paper Pack

Are you a Disney fan?  If so our next special is the very popular Magical paper pack!


The Magical paper packet is bright, colorful with all the Disney colors.  Perfect for creating layouts, a cute mini album or cards.  You can also order a coordinating stamp set and color cardstock.  


Memories in the Making

This next awesome special is a gorgeous calendar, easy to make and all your friends will adore it when they see it posted in your home or office!



What makes this kit so awesome is that it comes pre-cut and ready to assemble.  All you need is adhesive!  The kit includes stickers, die cuts and instructions.

You can also purchase separately stamp sets that coordinate perfectly with the calendar.  Plus once the year is over you can use the pages from each month and place them in a calendar to make a scrapbook album you will cherish forever.  


Hop on over to my website to see the various purchasing options to select from to start your calendar.  


Have a great weekend!
