Meet Story by Stacy

Story By Stacy

Happy, happy dance!!  Aside of being a card maker and branching out to scrapbooking and all sorts of paper crafting over the years, my absolute favorite is making mini albums.  I browse Pinterest all the time for crafting inspiration ideas on making mini albums and now Close To My Heart has introduced a new product line called Story By Stacy!!  I am so excited and already created my first little mini album.  You might be wondering who is Stacy?

This is Stacy Julian!  She has been focused with preserving memories since the 1990's and was once a Close To My Heart consultant when the company was formerly called D.O.T.S.  I've been fortunate to see her speak at one of our conventions and she is very inspirational.  You have to visit her blog at https://www.stacyjulian.com/blog/ and read more about her including preserving memories of a lifetime.  The f

antastic news is she has now partnered with Close To My Heart and has created StoryBy Stacy memory mini books.

These are the  adorable little mini books.  They hold 4x4 photos which you can easily crop a 4x6 photo to fit in the books or print the 4x4 photos.  There are 3 patterns currently to choose from.  I picked the red as my first one.  Each book has 10 memory protectors, 22 cards to journal and stamp sentiments or images on and each book is hard cover.

As you can see the journaling cards are perfect for stamping and journaling.  You receive plenty with each book, 22 total.

Colorful Texture

Quotable Words

You can also purchase separately these stamp sets to stamp images on the journaling cards.  The sets fit the cards perfectly too and make your mini album so much cuter!

Plus we have a new cute tiny little Trimmer made by Friskars and great name brand company that provides awesome quality products.  Who wouldn't want this trimmer?  I purchased mine right away, I'm so into tiny little things.  

I took some quick photos of my little mini book I made.  It's a mini book I made for my niece, the first photo I stamped the journaling card so she can journal notes from her trip.  The second photo I stamped images and using adhesive I placed them right on top of the photo protector.  The last photo I made an envelope I taped right inside the front cover where I placed more photos for her to pull out as she shares her book!

Story by Stacy mini albums are perfect for those who think they have no time to scrap.  One can easily be made in 1/2 hour to an hour depending how much time you want to embellish it.  They make great gifts and perfect for everyone of all ages to make!  Try one you'll LOVE them too!

Thanks!

Thin Cuts Thursday

 Hello!

I know, I know I'm actually really back!  Shame on me for being gone for so long.  I needed a short break but I am back and glad to be back to show you some great products and artwork!  I have always loved paper crafting among other hobbies such as making quilts, which reminds me I need to finish one I started awhile back.  I won't say exactly how long awhile back.... LOL.

Summer is in full swing and it's getting really hot and humid outside so I decided to make it a Thin Cuts Thursday and hide inside crafting!  I wanted to share a cute little holder I enjoyed making, using our Thin Cuts.  I use these little holders to send Petite Perks which are mini stamps to YOU my AWESOME customers placing orders on my website.

You can't see the stamp set inside but it's there!  What I like about these little pocket cards I make is you can also place a yummy chocolate inside, gift card or some money!  Imagine the possibilities on decorating the little cards from birthday to Christmas themes.  I used our Close To My Heart Cricut Artbooking cartridge, page 44, Photo Mat 2, cut at 7 inches.  Score and assemble it with any adhesive.  Pretty simple and cute.

I used the "Beautiful You Stamp and Thin Cuts for the flowers and leafs.  The patterned paper is from our Adventure Fundamental Paper Packet which will be retiring at the end of August so grab a pack before it's gone.  It's currently on while supplies last list and pack is filled with beautiful patterns and colors.

Retiring Colors

I wanted to let you know we have colors retiring in August too.  If these are any colors you currently love working with then stock up and get your re-inkers before they are gone for good.

My favorite of these is Blossom and sad to see it go. :(

Have a great day!
