CTMH Gifts

ByLisa Stenz February 15, 2013July 15, 2024

Close to my Heart spoiled us each day on the cruise. Here are just a few of the goodies that were waiting for us in our room each evening…

A super cute damask print tote bag and jewelry roll.

An embroidered beach towel.

A pair of stylish sunglasses and a cute case.

Two pairs of CTMH flip flops — one for me and one for hubby!

A CTMH thermal cooler and drink bottle.

On the last night, there was a plate of chocolate covered strawberries and this beautiful watch waiting for us in the room! Wow!

I was overcome by Close to my Heart’s generosity! The best part about the trip though wasn’t the great food, beautiful beaches, or wonderful gifts. It was the opportunity to get to spend some quality time hanging out with old CTMH friends and making new ones. (Of course hanging out with my hubby for a week without the kiddos wasn’t too shabby either. lol)

If you would like to learn more about Close to my Heart and the possibility of joining us on our trip next year to Costa Rica, feel free to visit my New Consultant FAQs page here. I would LOVE to have you join our CTMH family. *Ü*

“A Friend is…” Card
ByLisa Stenz March 20, 2008July 15, 2024
I love this stamp set and don’t use it nearly enough. I created this card with a hidden pocket on the front. I used my CTMH Pivot Point Stapler to add a small piece of ribbon on the side to make it easier to pull out and my blending pen to color in the petals….

Miracle Stationery Box for Operation Smile
ByLisa Stenz June 8, 2011September 29, 2025
I originally made this stationery box to send in with my Extravaganza teaching application a couple months ago. (Extravaganza is one of the highlights of the Close to my Heart Convention where we have 7 back-to-back, 20 minute, high energy creative classes. It is so much fun!) After I received the info that I was…

Another Sympathy Card
ByLisa Stenz February 27, 2011July 15, 2024
Sadly I had to make another sympathy card. This one is for my mother-in-law because my father-in-law passed away last weekend. It was very sad because my MIL was not even home at the time. She was in Minnesota with my nieces when it happened. But now everyone is back in Wisconsin celebrating his life….

Here are a few more Serendipity Cards. I just love the color combo. Actually, I am loving anything with browns lately. The top one uses a sentiment from CTMH’s “For Any Occasion” set and the bottom one uses a sentiment from CTMH’s “Friendship Word Puzzle” set.

Watercolor Hello Friend Card
ByLisa Stenz September 29, 2015July 15, 2024
I have been having so much fun playing with Close to my Heart’s new watercolor paints! I used them to add a little rainbow of color to this simple card. I stamped the “hello friend” sentiment from the Hello Life Cardmaking September promo stamp set in Black pigment ink onto a pice of watercolor paper. Then…
