Extra January Kit - "Snow Much Fun"


I am crazy about the cute snowmen in our FLAKEY FRIENDS stamp set, so I just had to create a layout with them.  Again, I combined two paper packets to find just the right combination of colors & prints.  The snowflakes were cut from both the Art Philosophy & Artiste Cricut Cartridges.
I am offering this extra layout kit for $12. -- while supplies last.  Please contact me to order your kit.

January Club Layouts

Here are the two layouts we'll be creating during our January club parties:
Supplies:  I used a combination of the Dakota and Avonlea paper kits, some extra cardstock colors, the Slate Mini-Medley Accents, Slate Satin Polka Dot Ribbon and the Silver Shimmer Trim.

There are so many creative ways to use hand-crafted 3-D items. You can use our great products to create home décor that will bring a fun and unique accent in your home. It’s easy to use Close To My Heart products you already know and love—with a different twist!
This festive thankful countdown uses the My Creations® cubby to celebrate Thanksgiving.

You can use it to countdown to your favorite holiday, like Thanksgiving, or use different embellishments and countdown to a loved one’s birthday to show them how much you love them.

For displaying precious memories, the display tray is a perfect fit! Display photos, stamped sentiments, Dimensional Elements, and other embellishments for a prized layout that you can proudly hang anywhere in your home.

Football Mini-Album


I thoroughly enjoyed taking action photos of Spencer and his teammates playing football during the last few weeks.  They all learned so much, did really well and were a lot of fun to watch this season.  I wanted to create a mini album as a "thank you" to the coach.  I tried something new this time and thought I would share the idea.  I took a package of 6x6 Kraft Die-Cut Cards & Envelopes (Z1474), opened the flaps of the cards and adhered several cards together using tombow.  Once they are glued together, you can fold the album "accordion style."  I wanted to include a photo of each team member, so I added as many pages as I needed.  I placed a team group photo on the front cover.  I stamped a big THANK YOU on the inside cover and left it blank for team signatures.  I stamped each team member's name under their photo.  If you create a small album with these cards, it will fit in the kraft envelope included.  However, my album got a little too big to fit in the envelope.  I used a plastic 6x6 stamp organizer (Z335) for an envelope -- it was a perfect fit!

Halloween Treats!

After a fabulous fall Team Tahoe Retreat with good friends -- I'm feeling inspired and grateful, my cup is refilled and creative juices are flowing to create holiday projects!  I look so forward to our retreats.  It gives us a chance to catch up with each others' lives, create fun projects together and enjoy some great home cooking!

As we start to prepare for Halloween next week, I wanted to make some Halloween treats for the boys and their classmates.  Julie had made some fun treats for our October Folsom club party and I knew the boys would love 'em too. They are fast and easy!  I sent boxes of them with both boys to share with their class and teachers today.  Thanks for the idea Julie!

Recipe:  Pretzels, Hershey's Hugs, Candy Corn
Place Hershey's Hugs on top of the pretzels on a cookie sheet.  
Bake at 200 degrees for 2-3 minutes.  
The hugs will melt just enough to quickly place a candy corn firmly on top.  Let cool.

I placed two in small, clear treat bags stapled closed with a stamped jack-o-lantern.
Supplies:  Perfect Fit-Halloween stamp set, CTMH Orange, Olive and Pansy Purple cardstock.
Happy Halloween!!

Moonlight Display Tray!


Have you created one of our Display Trays yet?  
Here is one that Mary created and gave to me at our Consultants Tahoe Team Retreat.    She used the Moonlight Halloween kit papers.  Mary had a great tip: she attached each rectangle base with just one glue dot in the middle of the rectangle, so you can change out the decorations each season.  
Yes, I think this would make a great workshop!  I'll be busy coming up with a couple of themes for a  future workshop.  Want to make your own now?  To view and purchase a Display Tray, click here.
I love this Mary - thank you so much!

Do You Stay in the Picture?

I saw an interview the other day that really struck me.  It was an interview of Allison Tate, a "mom blogger" who wrote an article for the Huffington Post titled, "Mom Stays in the Picture."  Her article reminds us that we really need to stay in the picture, not only to document that we really were at the holidays, vacations and major events of our families, but even more importantly. . . to document how we show our love as moms to our children.  It's easy to scrapbook all the photos of our kids and they love to see themselves in their scrapbooks.  But there will come a day when they will look for your photos too.  I doubt they will notice if you curled your hair, or put your make-up on . . . but they will notice how you looked at them, how you hugged them and how you laughed with them.  Doubt it?  Just think about the photos that you treasure from your childhood and the people most important to you.   This has been a "aha" moment for me and I hope for you too.  Let's make a better effort to put ourselves in the picture of our kids' lives.  Click here to read Allison Tate's article - I highly recommend it!

Here is the last time I stayed in the picture.  It was George's birthday party in August.

Discover the Possibilities of Cricut® Craft Room


If you love your Cricut® machine, then you are going to adore all of the fabulous things you can do with Close To My Heart Cricut® cartridges in the Cricut® Craft Room. Create layers, cut negative space in the shape of your choice, make borders, and link elements together for a connected look. It’s easy! We’ll show you how.

Here is how to get started with Cricut® Craft Room:
Create a FREE account in a few easy steps.
-Download and run the application for PC or MAC, depending on the type of computer you use.
-Connect your Cricut® machine to your computer using a Type B USB cable. (Note: For more info on this type of cable, see your Cricut®user’s guide or your local electronics store.) Once you have connected your computer to your Cricut® machine, the “Load Mat” button is the only button you will ever need to push on your machine in the entire process. Cricut® Craft Room will do everything else for you.
-Once inside the application, choose the type of Cricut® machine you own.
-Insert your Close To My Heart Art Philosophy or Artiste cartridge into your Cricut® machine.
-In the lower left portion of the application there is a tab that is labeled “Images/Cartridges.” Select “All Cartridges” from the dropdown menu. (Note: You must choose a cartridge that you own. You can also purchase individual images from the Cricut® store.)
-Scroll to find the Close To My Heart Art Philosophy or Close To My Heart Artiste cartridges you own.
-The virtual mat in Cricut® Craft Room is just like the mat you’ll load into your machine. And, it is oriented the same way that you will load your mat into the machine, with the arrow at the top.
-To drag an image to the mat, simply click on the image in the image selection tool box and move it to the mat.
-Once the image is on the virtual mat, you can adjust the placement by clicking on the image and moving it to any location on the mat.
-Now that you know the basics, you can start creating and exploring the possibilities!


Follow these steps to create the negative space on a card base, like you see on this Cheer Up card, featuring images from the Art Philosophy cartridge:
Select the “Card” tab in the Art Philosophy images. Find the card base you prefer and drag it onto the mat. (We used Square 1 for the Cheer Up card.) The image will be cut in the exact direction and location that you place it on the virtual mat. At the top of the screen, or at the left under the “Shape Properties” tab, you’ll see size boxes. Enter the width and height for your shape. This is the size it will be cut on the machine, regardless of what size your machine indicates on the flip screen.

Choose an image to cut out of your card front. We have chosen a butterfly by going to the Basics tab, clicking the “Show Shift/Lock Images” at the bottom, and then selecting the butterfly. Drag the image to the right side of the card base, position it, and alter the size, as desired. Once the image is in place, you will see a cut-out image in its place. This Weld feature is automatically on unless you disable it, and allows you to see how the card base will look with your images cut out.

Select another image, drag it to the card base, and position it how you’d like it. Continue adding images to the card base, if desired.

To cut your finished artwork, load the mat into your Cricut® machine and insert the corresponding cartridge. Next, press the green Cut button at the top of the computer screen and follow the prompts. The machine will cut the shapes as you have prepared them in Craft Room. If more than one cartridge shape has been added to the project, the machine and screen will prompt you with instructions.


Here are so more artwork examples that have been made using Cricut®Craft Room software. Follow the instructions below to learn some more fun tricks we used in creating this artwork.
Birthday Greetings card


Here’s how to create the bracket frame as shown in this Birthday Greetings card:
Drag a card base from Art Philosophy cartridge and size it to be 9" wide and 4½" high.
Add a 1½" bracket frame (from the Basic tab) to the center of the right side of the card. So far, all of the shapes have been placed in Layer 1. You can add additional layers using the Layer feature located toward the top of the screen, directly above the mat. Each Layer will be cut from a separate sheet of paper and is indicated by a different color on the screen. Using the Layer feature allows you to fully design your Cricut® shapes before cutting any pieces.
Add a second Layer by clicking the plus sign. Click and hold the Layer 2 tab and drag the tab to the left so it is first in the row. This allows you to see the second Layer on top of the first so you can visualize your finished project. Drag a 3" bracket frame to the card base and position it over the 1½" frame. Then, still using Layer 2, add a 1½" bracket frame in the center of the 3" frame.
Maneuver the Layer 2 frames so that they perfectly line up with the Layer 1 frame. Use your keyboard arrows for exactness.
Cut the pieces following the prompts on the computer screen and Cricut® machine. Layer 2 will be cut first, so be sure to load that paper first. Then load a new sheet of paper for the Layer 1 pieces.
Embellish the card as desired.
All Boy page


Want to create a border that spans the entire length of your 12" page? It’s easy!
In Craft Room, change the mat size to 12" x 24" under Machine & Mat tab on the left of the screen.
Drag your selected border to the mat and rotate it so it is vertical.
Change the height of the border to 12". It will automatically change the width proportionally unless you click the aspect ratio button between the width and height measurements.
Whether you have a 12" × 24" mat or a 12" × 12" mat, you can use this function with a 12" × 12" piece of paper. Simply place the border as close to the top of the Craft Room mat as possible, but not exactly flush with the top.


Cut the piece following the prompts on the computer screen and Cricut® machine.

To create the title with the letters joined together to form one piece instead of individually cut letters…
Drag your letters to the mat
Overlap portions of each letter to connect them
Use the Weld feature to join the letters together seamlessly.
Cut the piece following the prompts on the computer screen and Cricut® machine.

There are so many possibilities to explore in the Cricut® Craft Room using the versatile Art Philosophy and Artiste cartridges from Close To My Heart!

October Stamp of the Month Artwork

I had some fun with the October Stamp of the Month tags.  All the tags in this stamp set coordinate with shapes on the CTMH Artiste Cricut Collection so you can cut multiple tags very quickly on your Cricut!  I used silver embossing powder on this tag and added our blue and green sparkles to highlight the tag design.  The gift bag is a 3-D bag using the Avonlea Paper Kit and cut from the CTMH Artiste Cricut Collection also.  A fast and easy way to customize and make a beautiful presentation for your gift giving.

Studio J® Tricks to Add Flair to Your Layouts


Even though Studio J® is fast and easy to use, it is helpful to know some great tricks that can make customizing your layouts even more exciting. Here are some Studio J tricks straight from our professional Close To My Heart artists:

  • Customize your background and texture paper. You can change the color and intensity of the background and texture paper included in whichever kit you choose. Simply select the piece of background and texture paper, change the color in the color selection tool, and increase or decrease the intensity of the color in that same popup box.
  • Crop My Stickease® quotes, titles, and tags. The cropping feature on the My Stickease images allows you to select a section of a quote, title, or tag to use as a border or other embellishment.
  • Create a customized My Stickease image. If you have a specific image in mind to use as an embellishment on your page, you can create a customized My Stickease to fit your theme perfectly. Simply add a text box, photo hanger, ribbon, ribbon slides, and Stickease to create the little suitcase! So easy! Be sure to crop or send elements behind other elements when necessary, and add several elements together for a unique look!

  • Select more than one element at a time. If you want to move several elements of your layout at once, simply click and drag your mouse around the elements you would like to select. Let’s take buttons, for example. After the buttons have been selected, you can click the icons in the popup box to choose to align the buttons vertically or horizontally if you desire.
  • Make faux washi tape with vellum text boxes. To create the look of a piece of clear washi tape, make a small rectangular text box, filled with vellum background (this is the default color for text boxes). You can make the tape strips as large or small as you want, or even layer them for more emphasis.

  • Stretch one photo across multiple photo wells. If you have fewer photos than photo wells, instead of deleting the excess wells, try scaling the picture to a larger size and then copying the picture to other photo wells and matching the photos up until they align with an almost seamless image. This trick works best with photo wells that are adjacent to each other.
  • Create ruffled ribbon. Select “Ribbons” in the drop-down menu under the Embellishments toolset. Choose ribbon tab and rotate the tab so that it is vertical on the page. Then layer several tabs on top of one another, sending every other one to the back to create a ruffled look.

  • Create a jagged border with text boxes. You can create a jagged border simply by rotating multiple text boxes about 45 degrees and making them the same color as the background. Put these boxes on top of a long, rectangular box of another color, and you’ve got a jagged border!
  • Change the background of your layout. Sometimes you may like the photo and journal arrangement in a layout, and yet want to change the background colors. Because photos sit on top of everything else, this is easy to do. Simply pull a journaling box over the space you want for a different background and fill it with a color from the color selection tool or a patterned paper from the Papers toolset. Then, send it backwards until the photo wells are on top of your new background.
  • Bonus Trick! Use keyboard keys to make embellishments. Did you know that some of the best tools for creating custom embellishments are the basic keys on your keyboard? It’s as simple as typing into a journaling box with no background color. Use periods to make a polka dot pattern, angle brackets to create a trendy Chevron look, overlapping pound signs to make burlap, question marks to make rope, and so much more!

Stamped Candles

I really enjoyed visiting with friends at my CAbi party last week, so I wanted to create a "thank you" for everyone.  I created these stamped candles with glittery fall leaves.

To Create Your Own Stamped Candles, here are the steps:
1.  Start with a white candle.
2.  Stamp images on white (wrapping) tissue paper.  Cut around each image, leaving 1/4" border around the images.
3.  Use the CTMH Bonding Memories glue pen to place dots of glue around the 1/4" border of each image and place flat on the candle.  You may overlap the images.  I brushed some CTMH Almond colored Glitz Glitter Gel over the leaves for some sparkle.
4.  Melt a protective layer of wax over the top of the images with wax paper.  Cut wax paper the height of the candle.  Hold the wax paper tightly over the candle and heat with your CTMH heat tool.  You will see the tissue paper disappear as the wax melts.  Keep the heat tool moving and melt the wax over all the images.

More Ideas:  Stamped snowflakes, stars, Christmas trees, florals, flourishes.
Would you and your friends like to make these?  Contact me to schedule a Stamped Candle Workshop.
