Today is the final day of April (where did April go??) I wanted to remind you of some wonderful things that will be ending really soon–don’t miss these wonderful opportunities.
First, today is the final day to register for the FIRST-EVER Virtual Album Retreat. I have another blog post all about it HERE.
As soon as I saw the April Stamp of the Month, O-fish-ally Awesome, when the Close To My Heart March-April Catalog was released, I was super excited for it! And now it’s April–time to use this amazing stamp set. So many wonderful possibilities with it!
Remember this stack of happy mail I shared earlier this week? Well, it’s officially on it’s way to oodles of my favorite people. I hope when they find it in their mailbox, it brings a smile to their face.
Today’s card is another that I created with Close To My Heart’s Stamp of the Month, Cherishing Her. The sentiments in this stamp set are absolutely perfect for cardmakers.
Sometimes a simple card design paired with a simple and meaningful sentiment can be the best gift to someone. Can you imagine receiving such a lovely sentiment from a friend in your mailbox? It’d feel pretty nice, right?!
It’s time for a *NEW* Close To My Heart Stamp of the Month! And let me just say that the February Stamp Set, Cherishing Her is a must-have! Really. I love the sentiments. I love the font. I love the flowers. It’s truly a must-have in my book.
The January Stamp of the Month, Everyday Magic, is just that–MAGIC! It’s definitely one of my favorites. The sentiments are perfect for the new year with all the positivity and good vibes each message contains. And the little doodles are pretty awesome, too!
Happy New Year’s Eve! Today I was going to share reminders for all that will be ending today (aside from 2019 and another decade!) But then I saw that Close To My Heart shared a sneak peek into some of the amazing *NEW* products that will debut tomorrow in the January-February Catalog. So in addition to the reminders, I thought I’d share their sneak peek, too. Because it’s too fun not to do so!
The Close To My Heart December Stamp of the Month, Reindeer Crossing, is a beautiful set perfect for both card making and scrapbooking.
As promised earlier in the week, I have a fun card I created with the current Close To My Heart Stamp of the Month, Family Time. I used several of the smaller images from the stamp set to create my own custom paper using the technique of random stamping.
Close To My Heart’s November Stamp of the Month, Family Time, is perfect for not only scrapbookers but cardmakers , too. The stamp set comes with nice large sentiments that are perfect for scrapbook layouts like shown here.
It’s the final few days to grab the Close To My Heart October Stamp of the Month, Autumn Air. This stamp set has a great variety of images–from outline and solid leaf images to sentiments and even a fun border image.
