Close to my Heart’s new colors are here AND they are available in the newly designed ink pad style! You are going to love these new ink pads! They are bigger, easier to open, and of course the new colors are beautiful!
In this video, I show a comparison of the new ink pads with the old ones.
I created a simple card with the new colors using the card on page 36 of the new catalog as inspiration. I love the new Wise Guy Birthday stamp set. Did you know that this set is also available in Spanish and French?
I used all of the new colors including Raspberry, Blossom, Tangerine, Lemon, Willow, Emerald, and Pansy. The only new color I didn’t use is our “color of the year” Sea Glass. The only reason I didn’t use it is because I didn’t have the pad yet when I made the card. LOL. It is scheduled to arrive tomorrow and I can’t wait to make some cards with it!
So what do you think? Do you like the new ink pad design?

This is a layout I did a few years ago before I discovered clear stamps. Yikes, the title is just horrible! I used some old woodies I bought at Michaels and some craft paint. You know how you do a layout and then go back and look at it years later and think to yourself,…
My friend, and incredibly talented fellow Consultant, Sara Batkin sent me this adorable card last week. She used Close to my Heart’s April Stamp of the Month called My Sunshine along with some papers from the Claire Collection. Isn’t it a sweet card? Thank you Sara! xoxo

Happy National Card Making Day! I thought I would share a fun card today that I made using a combination of two card kits. The overall design was inspired by the Kind Thoughts card making kit. I also used the Circle Thin Cuts and the stamps from the Happy Day card making kit. I embossed…
