Cricut Artistry Collection
Close to My Heart has done it again - they've released another excellent Cricut collection! The new Artistry cartridge is full of wonderful images that coordinate with many different stamp sets.
In addition to the 700 images found on the cartridge, the collection comes with three D-size stamp sets (retail value of $53.85) and an Enchantment cardstock combo pack (retail value of $14.50). The collection retails for $99, but when you factor in the value of the stamp sets and the cardstock, you're really only paying $30.65 for the cartridge - such a great deal!
The Artistry cartridge can also be purchased as a digital collection, which will save you $20. You still get the stamp sets and the cardstock, but you receive a code to download the cartridge to your computer. The digital collection only works with the Cricut Explore and Cricut Explore Air machines.
Here are pictures of the many images that you receive with the Artistry collection.
Thanks for stopping by today! If you have any questions, just let me know!

Chalk It Up and the August Stamp of the Month
Every month Close to My Heart releases an exclusive stamp set only available for that month. You can either purchase the stamp set at retail value - $17.95 - or get it for $5 with a qualifying order of $50. The stamp of the month set for August is Framed, and it's fabulous for making cards.
I decided to make a selection of cards using this stamp set and the leftovers from my Chalk It Up paper packet. Here's what I came up with!
In addition to the Chalk It Up paper packet, I also used some puffy stickers from the Chalk It Up Assortment and a few White Enamel Stars.
Thanks for taking a look!

August Workshop - Zoe
I want to tell you a little about the workshops that I will be having each month.
Each month from August 2015 to August 2016, Close to My Heart is going to highlight one paper packet. I'm going to follow their schedule and have a workshop each month that features that specific paper packet. I will post the events and artwork we'll be making as I get them planned and created. For now, I have the information about August's workshop up and some information about September's. Everything will be posted on my Upcoming Events page.
I love scrapbooking with others and helping them be successful in preserving their memories in whatever way they choose. I want to provide time each month to get together, have fun, and actually make artwork with the products we buy! I am so excited about these new workshops, and I really hope you will join me this year!
So here's what you need to know about August's workshop! We will be using the Zoe Workshop on the Go Scrapbooking Kit to create four beautiful 12x12 layouts and a couple of cards. The workshop kit retails for $29.95 and includes over $40 worth of product! The workshop costs $35, which covers the cost of the kit, shipping, tax, and the use of my Cricut machine and stamp pads. I have three scheduled times for this workshop, but if there's enough interest, I can schedule additional times.
-Friday, August 28 from 1:30-4:30 or 6:30-9:30
-Saturday, August 29 from 1:30-4:30
Space is limited for workshop, so sign up soon. You must sign up by Monday, August 17th so I can order the kits in time for the workshop. You can call, text, email, or comment on this post to reserve your spot!
Here are some pictures of the layouts I created with this kit.

Mojo Monday 409 - Zoe and August Stamp of the Month
It's been a long time since I've participated in the Mojo Monday card sketch challenge, but I'm hoping to get back on track as the "new year" begins. Back to school and the release of a new idea book always make it feel like the beginning of a new year for me!
Here's the sketch for this week:
I decided to use the brand-new Zoe paper packet from Close to My Heart and the August stamp of the month set, Framed.
I used leftovers from the Zoe Workshop on the Go scrapbooking kit - I love to find ways to use up my scraps!
Here's my card:
I love all the different patterns in this paper packet and - as always - how well they all go together! I stamped the image in Glacier ink and the sentiment in Slate. I also edged all the paper pieces with Slate ink.
Thanks for stopping by!

Lots of exciting news!
It's finally August and I have lots of new products, specials, and information to share with you!

This year (August 2015 - August 2016) Close to My Heart will be highlighting one paper packet each month, and I've decided to follow along by having monthly workshop at my home. Most months will feature one of the Workshop on the Go kits, but some months will simply be layouts and/or cards using the various paper packets, complements, stamp sets, and embellishments I've put together. I hope you will choose to join me each month, and there will be rewards for coming regularly!
