Trick or Treat with Close To My Heart Products

Hello My Fellow Crafters,

I can’t believe that Halloween is this Saturday already. Our outside tree is decorated with pumpkins and ghosts ~ Big bag of treats is all ready ~ Now we just need children dressed up in costumes to come Trick or Treating 🙂

I even made a couple of “Trick or Treat” greeting cards.  This one was super easy to make and the part that really makes it look special is the Black Shimmer Trim.  Shimmer trim is the perfect way to add a little sparkle to any card or scrapbook page without the mess of glitter everywhere 🙂

I just love having all the Close To My Heart products available to me so that I can always make handmade greeting cards for every occasion.

~ Happy Halloween Everyone ~

Using Close To My Heart Products to make Beautiful Handmade Greeting Cards

Hello My Fellow Crafters,

Hope you are all having a great Monday and a Happy Columbus Day.

I made this card last week at my friend Cathy’s home when she was having Close To My Heart gathering.  We made a lot of great cards and this one just reminded me that today is Columbus Day.

I love Close To My Heart Products especially the cardstock and this color Juniper looks so awesome with the Cocoa Exclusive ink.

OK, so now I want to give you a quiz ~ LOL ~ Do you remember the start to the Christopher Columbus poem that we learned back in elementary school?

~ In fourteen hundred and ninety two ~ Columbus sailed the ocean blue ~

Isn’t it funny how some rhymes/poems stick in your memory ~ enjoy the rest of your day and have a great evening  🙂

So Many Smiles Stamp Set ~ Close To My Heart

Hello My Fellow Crafters,

Have you ever had a week that went by so quickly?  Well that was my week.  I can’t believe that it is Friday already.

I have been having so much fun creating cards with all of the Close To My Heart products that I received in my new consultant kit.

The funny thing about todays stamp set is that I had it on my wish list before I joined and it ended up being in the consultant kit which put a Big Smile on my face 🙂

There are so many things that you can do with this So Many Smiles stamp set – it comes with 12 stamps, and you can make flowers or just totally abstract design with these fun circles.

A great thing to know is that on the clear sheet that the stamps are attached to, shows the size of each circle.  You may be saying so what’s so great about that. Well I will tell you.

*If you have a Cricut machine and the Close To My Heart exclusive Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge, you can cut out the images perfectly and then stamp.

*BUT if you don’t have the cartridge and you do have some circle paper punches you are in luck.  All you would need is four circle punches in size 3/4″, 1″, 1 1/2″, and 2 1/4″ and you have all the circles needed.

And if you have a pair of scissors you can cut them all out by hand which is really easy plus really gives your card the handmade look.

Hope you enjoyed my card today ~ Have a Wonderful weekend 🙂
