Are you ready to see how to make this adorably cute Jack-o-lantern Fry Box? This cute project was my September Mystery Project Kit. Each month I send out supplies for a mystery project to all those crafty friends who make a purchase of CTMH products from me. It’s a way for me to thank you … Read more Jack-o-lantern Fry Box!
Today I wanted to share this fabulous Floral Celebration Celebrating You Box I created. I used this month’s Close To My Heart Stamp of the Month, Floral Celebration. I paired the stamp set with one of the tall box designs in the Cricut Artiste Collection. Initially, I planned to have flowers go along the side … Read more Floral Celebration Celebrating You Box
Today’s inspiration is all about preparing for Easter. This morning my daughter asked me if we would be doing anything for Easter since we didn’t really do much for St. Patrick’s Day. (I generally try to decorate our home, even if it’s only a tiny amount, as well as to do or make something a little extra special for that particular holiday to make it more memorable.) Well, with all that is going on around the world with COVID-19, I admit our St. Patrick’s Day didn’t quite live up to past ones.
Just a little creative inspiration for you today with this quick video showcasing a really fun DIY home decor piece that anyone can create! There’s no place like…. H🍉ME! Posted by Close To My Heart on Wednesday, January 29, 2020 If you need some inspiration with your Cricut cuts, you can see all the … Read more A Fun DIY Home Decor Sign
Are you finished with all your holiday preparations and now feeling the holiday spirit? Or maybe it’s a little bit more of a feeling of holiday stress? If it’s a more of the latter because you still need a few small gifts for co-workers, neighbors or even teachers, Close To My Heart recently shared some wonderful festive ideas to help you out on their blog.
Today’s project is so quick and easy to put together and makes such a great presentation for a gift card. And with the holiday season just around the corner, you’ll definitely want to make some of these yourself!
Things have been pretty busy here this week preparing for my Annual Holiday Extravaganza Class & All-day Crop. Add in the stress of wondering if our city & neighborhood would be one that would be impacted by PG&E’s Power Shutoff and it feels as though I’m scrambling to get things done (& hope they don’t become undone–like food purchased for Saturday’s event going bad if the power is shut off!)
I have a challenge for you! I encourage you to send a handmade card to someone either this weekend or this coming week–just because! Just because it will brighten their day. It will also brighten your day knowing you helped make someone else feel special. I’ve just mailed a couple handmade cards myself. Leave a … Read more Send a Handmade Card Just Because
At first glance Close To My Heart’s March Stamp of the Month, This Happened, seems like it could only be used to create scrapbook layouts. Well, today I have a card I created with this stamp set that shows that you can make cards with this set, too!

This past Saturday my daughter had the opportunity to attend a Red Carpet Event with her Girl Scout troop along with 17 other troops. Each troop created their own movie and this event was the premier showing of those movies (luckily they could each only be 3-5 minutes otherwise with 18 movies to watch it would be quite the marathon!)
Abner Doubleday, who invented the game of baseball, was born on June 26th, 1819. To mark the occasion, I created this card. Of course, I meant to share it yesterday when it was actually the day of his birth. But life happens as it does for all of us. So, I guess it’s a little … Read more Happy Birthday, Abner Doubleday (Baseball-Themed Birthday Card)!
I love the Twist and Pop style cards. They definitely aren’t the thinnest card to mail, but they have such a fun “wow” factor to them which makes them so irresistible to make! This birthday twist and pop card is one we are creating in this month’s Technique Time Class. I love the bright cheery … Read more Birthday Twist and Pop Card
My kids are approaching the end of the Fall Soccer Season (thankfully!) While it’s always fun to watch them make new friends and learn to play as a team each season, it’s always a relief when the end is in sight. Fall is especially hard with the start of school and all the weekly activities … Read more Soccer Cards for the End of the Season
