Picture My Life

I am so loving the fact that Close To My Heart offers their version of a card system for scrapbooking.  Picture My Life is a little different from your traditional scrapbooking in that there is, for the most part, no cutting, gluing, or fussing.  No figuring out how to arrange your photos, no more guilt about not doing anything with those family photos, and certainly no stress at all is involved when you decide to reach into that shoebox of old photos that need to be protected. 

Now for all that are using Instagram to post daily photos, Facebook to post pics of your kiddos and including a little info that tells the story behind that shot, or Twitter to write a few words about what your are experiencing at that very moment...why not preserve those stories and photos?  Saving all your photos on your family computer is a great way to be sure they are safe however, preserving some of those photos in an album gives all a chance to really enjoy and appreciate those photos. 

Close To My Heart Offers 8 Picture My Life kits to choose from and the best part is you get the quality, beauty, and versatility that CTMH is known for!  Here are just a few......

What Will You Be Crafting For Easter? Artiste Can Help!

Hello all....I hope those of you who are on Spring Break right now are enjoying your time off from the roller coaster we call life.  I know here in my household, things have been very laid back, quiet.  I think I like it!

I took some time this morning, while sipping my coffee, to create some fun little treat boxes as a little token of thanks to some wonderful ladies who have been an amazing support to me over the past couple of months.  These treat boxes can also be wonderful to add to your holiday table!  You can use them as gifts, favors, or even place markers.

I used my Close To My Heart  Artiste Cricut cartridge and was able to make several in just minutes! 

Remember, this cartridge can be yours FREE this month (a $99 value) if you join my team and become a consultant yourself ;).  Take a look here.

So here is the box.  I used White Daisy cardstock for the box itself.  I sponged the sides and corners with Cotton Candy ink.  At the bottom of each I added the border from the My Stickease pack for Lollydoodle.  The butterfly at the top is also cut using the Artiste cartridge.  Of course, I had to add a little "bling" so included some sparkle flourishes.  Finally, I added a little gift tag by attaching it with baker's twine. 

Happy Spring to All!!!
