Sunday Paper: Scrapbook Layout

Did you blink twice when you saw "Sunday Paper"? hahaha!  This fall was full of birthday celebrations, holiday happenings and TONS of great family time.  So, I thought it's about time I put up another post about the paper we papercrafters love the most!! Thanks for stopping by! :)

Happy National Papercrafting Month!! Today I'm here quickly to share a layout that I made with the Year>>Noted paper pack that CTMH is offering to you this month for $5 with a qualifying order.  The paper pack, stickers and stamp set come to you with documenting a year in mind but as with almost everything else you can use it as you wish and for so many different things!!

Year>>Noted Paper Pack & Stamp Set, Lagoon Ink in a Spray Pen

This heart was fun to make with scraps I had left after creating the base of the layout.  I used 3/4" squares, cut them in half diagonally and put them together to create a heart.  I modeled the heart after a digitally pictured heart I saw on the front of a store ad.  There's inspiration everywhere!!

The Year>>Noted stamp set has a "highlights" phrase.  That was easy enough to mask so that I just ended up with "highlight" to fit the title I wanted to create on this layout.

Check out Close to My Heart's blog, Make It From You Heart, for more Year>>Noted inspiration!

Happy Crafting!

Happy New Year!!

Happy New Year!! I hope you made the most of your 2014 and it ended with a bang! 2015 is here and ready for us to make each day the best...I'm ready! :)

Close to My Heart is ready for a fun, exciting 2015 and has the January promotions to prove it.

Stamp of the Month: This Moment


January's SOTM is such a cute one! Who else is in love {with this stamp set}?  This stamp set is only $5 with any $50 purchase this month!



January is National Papercrafting Month!


In celebration of National Papercrafting Month, CTMH invites you to reflect on the things that make you who you are and on what you want to accomplish in the coming months.  Then, with the help of the Year>> Noted paper kit, record your experiences and goals!  Really, the possibilities are endless!  The color palette of the B&T duos and the stamp set that accompanies the paper pack is super cute and can be used for many different projects!

During the month of January, with a qualifying purchase of $50, you are eligible to purchase the exclusive Year>>Noted paper kit (which has a retail value of over $24) for only $5 - that's over 80% off retail!  For an additional $5, you can order the Year >>Noted paper kit with an accompanying My Creations kraft mini book.  That means if you purchase the kraft mini book along with the paper pack you are getting $34 worth of crafting supplies for just $10!  Which, by the way, if one of the new kraft mini books was already on your wish list this is a bonus deal because the mini book itself retails for $9.95 so with January's deal you get more for your money!! :)
