Angle View My Peeps Easter Treat Holder

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.

CTMH Story by Stacy Storytelling Cards

Happy World Storytelling Day! Given all that is happening and how quickly things are changing from day-to-day, now is the PERFECT time to scrapbook these moments (if you are a scrapbooker) or simply start a journal if you’re not a scrapbooker.

Did you know that February is International Correspondence Writing Month or also known as InCoWriMo?  It’s true!  I had never heard about it until recently and I’m pretty jazzed about it.  Really.  How often do you receive a handwritten card or note from someone these days?  Not often I would imagine.

Ready for a fun and useful project?  I’m going to show you how to turn the Close To My Heart All Around Creativity National Papercrafting Kits into a fabulous clock!

Now is the time to grab your kit or kits!  Remember you can save up to 30% when you purchase 4 or more of these kits (any combination–whether all the same or all different kits.)

I’ll have the tutorial for you next week.  For now, take advantage of the National Papercrafting Month Special and purchase your kit(s) so you’re ready.  You can find the All Around Creativity Kits as well as the few additional items I added to my clock (Fern ink, Glacier ink, Sponge Daubers, Liquid Glass, Bonding Memories Glue and Black & White Dots) on my ONLINE CTMH STORE.
