Thanks for stopping by to check out my Shaker Card Party.  Have a creative day!!

The post Shaker Card Party! appeared first on Linda Creates.

Nothing fills kids and dogs with more excitement than the first snow of the year.  We groan because that could mean days out of school, shoveling but for kids and dogs, it only means one thing – playing.  I created this layout with these pictures in mind.  I’ll show you on Friday the layout using the full City Side Walk packet (sold out which is why it’s not offered).

You can order this layout to make in class at the Harbor Scrapbooking Weekend Event (there’s room for more to come and scrap with us) for $12.00.  It comes with color directions and cutting guide.  I will make it and ship it for $15.00 (some of the cutting will be done and all the stamping will be done) plus shipping.  I used the Cozy Christmas stamp set with thin cuts (also retired).  Isn’t this snowman so dang cute!

I did some adjustments to the cutting guide to accommodate flip flaps.  You know me, I just love those things and everyone should be scrapping one event between two pages (it will save you time and money) using them.  You’ll be getting some 4×6″ flip flaps and some 3×3″ flip flaps.  If you need more, I’ll have them for sale at my store.  =)

We’ll get Winter no matter what so this is the perfect layout for it.  Please RSVP your layout so we can get them made up for you!  =) You can do this over in my Facebook Group.  This group is for my customers.  If you are a CTMH consultant, please email me directly if you want one.

Thanks for stopping by and have a creative day!

The post Last Call – Harbor Scrapbooking Gratitude Layout Class – September 22-25, 2016 appeared first on Linda Creates.

Celebrate National Stamping Month this September with hand stamped cards designed to help create a little more kindness in the world. The Create Kindness card kit contains all of the supplies needed to create 24 beautiful handmade cards that you can use to brighten someone’s day! The kit can be yours for only $46.95—a 15% savings off the retail value!

Thanks to the pre-printed card bases, these cards come together in no time, leaving you more time to do something thoughtful for someone. Watch Close To My Heart’s blog, Instagram account, and Facebook page throughout the month of September to see what we’ve created with this card kit as well as the acts of kindness it has inspired! This exclusive kit will only be available in the month of September while supplies last, so make sure to get your order in early.

As a special bonus, the exclusive stamp sets and pre-printed card bases with envelopes are also available for separate purchase, but only in the month of September while supplies last!   I made my cards a little differently by adding a black mat to the circle and coloring them in.  Now with the new coloring fad, sending them to a friend how LOVES to color would make that person’s day, right?!

When you purchase your kit/class through me, you’ll get 24 black circles for mats FREE.  Don’t live close?  No worries, I’ll mail them to you.  I used watercolor pencils and paints to doing my coloring.  I used our wonderful new Shimmer Brush (think Wink of Stella but a better price point of $4.95!) over the top of the watercolor pencils and I love the look!

Two Classes:

September 10, 2016 – 12-3pm at my house

September 24, 2016 at the Harbor Scrapbooking PA Weekend Crop!

Gratitude Layout Class for Harbor Scrapbooking  PA Crop – September 22-25, 2016

I’ve provided you an elegant layout to celebrate the things in your life for which you feel grateful for.  This is the first layout I made:

I created this layout for the class (designed for mass production).

This layout features of September Stamp of the Month – SOM S1609 Blessed Beyond Measure.  I love it!!   You have four different options for this class.  You can add additional product to your class and this will determine what your layout will look like.  The base layout look will change for the background and texture papers as they are the Enchanted Fundamental Paper Packs (I love them!) when you purchase the first three options.  Purchase the last option and your layout can look like my first layout.  All the papers are cut for you and all the images are stamped.  You distress and assemble.

September 7th is the last day to order this kit for the Harbor Scrapbooking Crop.  Live afar or just want to get this layout, you are welcome to order your kit and we’ll get it cut for you.  Additional costs apply for shipping

September Stamp of the Month (SOM) – S1609 Blessed Beyond Measure

This stamp set is super cute and carries an important message usable year round.  This is a set of 19 stamps celebrating fall with the leaves and pumpkins.  The message is letting those you value and are blessed with, just how important they are.  You can use these stamps to celebrate your own reasons for being blessed or having an attitude of gratitude or you can pass the message forward.  Don’t miss out on this awesome stamp set!

Each month you can purchase a new D-size stamp set that is exclusive and available for one month only, for $17.95.  Better yet, you can get it for just $5 when you place an order of $50 or more in Close To My Heart products. Just think, you qualify for this special Stamp of the Month pricing saving $12.95 with your $50.00 purchase.

Paper Kit of the Month:  Jeeper Creepers

Next month is my child’s favorite event – Halloween – because it means dress up time!  This paper can be used for Halloween, Autumn, Fall, and more.  I love that CTMH creates paper that has multiple uses!
