November Specials

Close To My Heart is offering two great specials for the month of November.

Holiday Wishes
WHEN YOU PLACE A MINIMUM ORDER OF $25 IN MY ACRYLIX® STAMP sets* between November 1–30, you can add a new D-size Holiday Wishes stamp set for only $5! That’s a significant savings of $12.95. You may buy one Holiday Wishes stamp set for every $25 in qualifying stamp sets you purchase. As a creative bonus, many of the images in the set coordinate with our Cricut® Art Philosophy cartridge for added cutting and stamping fun!




November Stamp of the Month - Cherish The Day

The perfect stamp set to highlight the date on all your birthday, anniversary, wedding cards, scrapbook pages, and more!



Place an Order - Enter to Win a FREE Double Stamp Set!
As and added bonus, if you place an order with me during the month of November, I will enter your name in a drawing to win a Pair-A-Phrase stamp set (worth $35.90)!




If you'd like to get either of these great stamps, enter the drawing, or sign up for the class, contact me soon!

Never Say Never

So... here I am - a blogger.  Who would have guessed?  But I have so much to share about my new business and need a way to reach out to all of you.

Last week I became a Close to My Heart consultant.  For those of you who are not familiar with Close to My Heart, but familiar with me and my interests, it won't surprise you to learn that Close to My Heart is an incredible scrapbooking/stamping company.  I am so excited to be launching a new business as part of this wonderful company.  I hope you will all join me on this adventure.


I can't wait to start teaching workshops, hosting crops and, of course, facilitating gatherings for you and your friends.  I'll be using this blog to post schedules, pictures of new projects, and other important information.  So please keep checking back.  But of course, make sure you let me know you want to be on my mailing list so I can personally make sure you are up-to-date!


Now... my starter kit is waiting for me.  I've been checking the door step all week, waiting for it's arrival, and I can't wait any longer!  So I'm off to go check it out.  And then I'm going to schedule my first gatherings and workshops.  Want to be invited or host one of your own?  Let me know!
