This months Stamp Of The Month has been such a hit with scrapbookers and
card makers. The gorgeous Story Book Alphabet can be used over and over – you’re never going to run out of letters for any titles with this beauty.
Today is the last day to order yours!
Here is some of the fun I’ve had with this stamp set.

For both my ‘Sweet’ card and ‘Together’ page below, I stamped in Black Ink and teamed this with the Whimsy Fundamental paper pack – stamping in one colour makes for an easy and appealing title.

With my ‘Thanks’ card I stamped in Black Memento Ink. This is an Archival quality ink that works for any stamping project and can be used with alcohol markers, watercolors, or any of our Close To My Heart coloring options. I used the Whimsy Fundamental paper and our Turquoise Blue Shin Han Maker.

I cut my White Daisy Card to 4 1/4″card (I do love a square card) and layered the Sweet Leaf coloured paper from the Whimsy Fundamental paper with Black Cardstock. I stamped on White Daisy Cardstock again, in Black Memento Ink and then coloured in small sections of the stamp design with Leaf Green and Tender Pink Shin Han Makers.

Gorgeous Stamp Of The Month set + Whimsy Fundamental Paper Pack = Fun projects!

Today is the final day to order your Story Book Alphabet stamp set and the Fundamental Paper Packs from the Annual Inspriation Ideas Book 2016-2017. This book is retiring and we have a NEW Annual Inspriations Ideas Book to release tomorrow, 1st August 2017.

I had the absolute (oh, my gosh, I can’t believe it!) pleasure of touring Close To My Hearts home office while at Convention this July with all the other girls and guys who attended US Convention 2017 in Salt Lake City, Utah.
It was amazing!

I would love to share with you some of my favorite photos I took while on tour…

After a morning of super creative sessions at convention we hopped onto our air conditioned bus. The weather was hot, hot, hot in Salt Lake City so this cool ride was welcomed and with such gorgeous views, the ride out to Pleasant Grove, about 30 minutes from the city, was a enjoyable. Months before convention we could book our bus trip out to Home Office and we yes, we had a ‘bus tickets’ …you can be sure I’ll be scrapbooking this keepsake! When we arrived we were divided into 3 groups for ease of moving around to see everything in a timely manner. I couldn’t believe I was really here!

I love the Close To My Heart mission statement.
This was on the wall when you entered the front foyer.

Welcome to the Art Studio!
Woah! I really did take a moment to take it all in as this is
‘where all the magic happens’!

Next stop along our tour was Jeanette’s office, workroom and meeting room.
Stella rooms to be able to walk through and be in (pinching myself at this stage to see if I was alive and that this was real!) LOL
ps…if you look closely you’ll see some fun new product coming our way.

The artwork around the home office was so beautiful, everywhere you looked there was something to ohh and ahh over. Of course you could tell it had all been hand made with love AND new product which will all be released 1st August!

We entered the warehouse where they pack orders and where they make our beloved acrylic stamps. We received our convention bags here and watched a video on how our stamps are packaged …very interesting!

As we walked out from the warehouse there were covers from all the Catalogs, Annual Inspirations and Seasonal Expressions since Close To My Heart was born. Anyone who knows me know I can’t resist a photo with something new and this is the latest cover which will be released in August 2017.

From the warehouse back out to the front foyer, back where we started our tour.
I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. As I said at the beginning, it was amazing!

Now it’s time for me to get crafty – working on my handmade gifts for my NEW Product Launch Party next week.

Today I’m in Salt Lake City – Utah at the Close To My Heart 2017 Convention and, as luck would have it, I’m celebrating my 4th Anniversary with CTMH today 1st July!

These past days meeting new consultants from all over the US and Canada has been fabulous. The chatting, laughter, hugs, meeting new friends, card swaps, catching up with old friends, training, fabulous creative sessions, seeing and hearing about the NEW product releases AND the NEW Annual Inspirations Ideas Book, a special Australian luncheon with Brian Holman and Monica Wihongi, lots of FREE new product and many, many selfies taken along with a wonderful tour of our CTMH home office and the absolute highlight for me was, when I was setting up for Creativity Showcase I turned around and met face to face with Jeanette Lynton – Oh WOW!! She came to see all the consultants art work, this was very special.

Saturday morning we heard from Jeanette and what’s she’s up to. She is so involved in every aspect of Close To My Hard and she is one funny girl!

Thanks for reading today, I’ll  share more fabulous memories from my US trip and CTMH Convention soon.
