We had a lot of fun together at our annual Stamp Camp. Everyone signed up to design a 2-page layout and make enough kits for those attending. We were to cut all papers, do all stamping, provide all embellishments and a photo with instructions. I'm never disappointed in the work these ladies do. Check out my completed layouts so far:

That's Amore

I totally should have taken pictures of matching layouts at the same time. The first layout has an additional page to be added at a later date! These layouts use our beautiful new That's Amore paper and I've chosen to put photos of my mom's family as she was growing up. The last layout features a photo of her when she was just 14. Isn't she beautiful!!

Lazy Days of Summer

Over the next few days, I'll be posting layouts from our team Stamp Camp. This layout was designed by me javascript:void(0)and uses our Boom-di-ada Papers.

I Love You Always

Another sample of artwork from the Regional Celebrations. This features our new Unforgettable paper and demonstrates the versatility of our new Workshops on the Go. This is using the same layout as our new That's Amore layout. We used the Priceless Love stamp set, Rustic Alphabet.

You Color My World

Here is one of the beautiful new layouts we completed at the Regional Celebration. This features my sweet little granddaughter. The papers used were our fun (and bright!) Daydream papers.

Regional Celebration

I took advantage of a great weekend away offered by Close To My Heart the end of February in Phoenix, Arizona. These Regional Celebrations are a combination of business classes and creative time. Over the next few days, I'll be posting pictures of some of the fun projects we made. This first picture is one of our new Memory Boxes I chose to make for my daughter Kristen as her friend Jordan is preparing to leave on a two year mission for our church. She can store letters from Jordan in the box.

New Blog!

Welcome to my new blog!! I hope to post frequently new artwork to display our wonderful Close to My Heart products. I love working with the paper, stamps and accessories to create items that will showcase my precious photos or help others celebrate special memories in their lives. I hope you'll join me frequently to see what's new and that you'll feel free to comment or make suggestions!
