A Whole New Beginning--our Annual Inspirations Idea Book

Close To My Heart is beginning a whole new era of offering high quality products 

for your crafting pleasure with the release today of the first Annual Inspirations Idea Book.

This 192 page book will be in effect from August 1st 2014 to July 31st 2015!

It features nine brand new coordinated paper packets with complements and accessories to match

and several new tools and embellishments you will enjoy.  You can see the new book 

virtually by going to my website  and selecting "Products" from the ribbon at the top.

Here are the projects I have designed to begin our Annual Inspirations journey.

This is my Scrapbook Plus class featuring Two-2-page layouts and six cards.  The cost is $25 for the materials and everything cut and ready to put together.  If you order the Pathfinding Paper Packet, (X7186A), Pathfinding Complements ( X7186C),  and Pathfinding Assortment (Z3012)  through my shopping cart I will email the cutting guide to you for these projects so you can make them yourself.

You may select these Stamp of the Month cards as your project.  Along with the stamp set, What a Hoot, page 12 of Annual Inspirations, you will use several new products.  Note the woodgrain effect on all cards made by our new woodgrain embossing folder Z1996.  I LOVE that!  Coloring on the middle card was made with our new Shin Han alcohol markers--so nice!  There is a minimum $15 product order to get the materials FREE to make these cute cards.  

 For the Cardmaker Supreme class we will use the Pathfinding Card Workshop On the Go G1083.

This kit contains the stamp set, Pathfinding paper, Cardstock sheets, 15- Colonial White card bases and envelopes, Sequins Gold Assortment (Z2012), Bronze Shimmer Trim (Z1849), and an instructional brochure.  I have discovered there is enough paper and embellishments with the kit to create another set of cards!  That means with the addition of 15 more card bases and envelopes you will end up with 30 cards!  Plus my service bonus is that I will cut the pieces for your kit this month free of charge.  Please let me know if you want this project so I can prepare it for you in plenty of time.  I am seriously considering making Thanksgiving cards with this kit.
To make the pricing clear--you will purchase the Pathfinding Card Workshop on the Go kit, ($24.95) and if you need 15 more cards and bases, it will be $5 more for a total of  $29.95.
