Gimme Some Sugar Blog Hop




Welcome to the rockin’ heART team blog hop. April is all about the Colors of Gimme Some Sugar, Bashful, Juniper, Tangerine, Linen! What a beautiful Spring color scheme. If you have joined me from Shirley's  blog, you are on the right track. A full list of rockin’ heARTists may be found on Shirley’s blog.

My project …Some cards for various occasions. Uses various papers from the "Gimme Some Sugar" paper pack, Complements, and other great basic supplies. Love the papers and complements that "Close To My Heart" has to offer. Yes! I buy and use the product that I sell. The pink and yellow paper is not CTMH but the sentiments are.

Get Well Soon

Sending You Love

Sending You Prayers

Take the Front Sentiment out and add your Photo!
Clear Acetate is overlaid for over your photo.

Since the blog that already began, I dressed up these cards. 
I even dry embossed the box top with "Close To My Heart"
Embossing Folder. Beautiful floral pattern.
Check out the link that I provide here after you view this
whole page. I want you to see before and after. Creativity
goes a long way when we craft and have our heart in it.
Been Dressing up the Cards for Shoppers!(Click on this blue

    What a great idea with the cards. I love how you can trade the sentiment out and put a photo. The card can be enjoyed longer.

Recently, in front of local shop called "Smith Hodge Podge Shoppe" in Alliance Ohio was a "Flip Flea Market event" that I got to set up a canopy, do a live stamping demo, and displayed lots of Close to My Heart Products. This weekend that just passed I was at the Mother's Day Craft/Vendor show in Minerva Ohio. Surprised to meet lots of people from my own area there. We started outside and due to the wind, went inside. But, had a blast of fun. One of the best parts of my day was to work with a young one, making birthday card for her relative. You take a peak at the pictures and video. Was a fun day to get new people coming to my local club, and seeing Close to My Heart products. I use them a lot. But, then the wind came in and almost had to shut down like a few other vendors had too. But, they had me covered at the Mt.
