Holly Jolly Collection

Holly Jolly is the featured paper packet for November, and it’s exactly what I want when I think of Christmas paper - bright and fun! As always, I love the colors that Close To My Heart has put together for this collection, and the coordinating accessories and stamps are great too. Who doesn’t need more enamel dots?!




Here are a few projects featured in the idea book that were created with the Holly Jolly collection.







To find out which products were used on these projects, follow the link below and click on the Recipes link under the November-December catalog.

The Holly Jolly collection consists of several coordinating products — a paper packet, sticker sheet, cardstock, embellishments, and stamp sets. There’s also a scrapbooking workshop kit and a cardmaking workshop kit - both with exclusive embellishments! Here are a few of the products included in this collection.

October Card Workshops


Each month from September through December, I will be offering a card workshop featuring current paper collections and stamp sets from Close To My Heart. At each workshop you will make 3-4 different cards, learning new techniques and card designs.



In October, we will be making four cards -- two full-size cards and two 3x3-inch cards. I plan on using the smaller cards as place markers for Thanksgiving dinner!

I will have pictures of the other cards up soon.

All of the cards will be designed and cut for you, and I will walk you through how to make each card. I will provide all of your stamps, inks, and tools; all you will need to bring is adhesive.

The cost of the workshop is $10, which covers your materials, pre-cutting, the use of my supplies, and my instruction.

You can RSVP on the Facebook event pages, or you can email, call, or text me to sign up. Space is limited, so sign up soon! If you prefer to use a credit card, you can pay for the workshop online; otherwise, you can pay with cash or check the day of the workshop.

Like last month, you have the option to add on a few accessories to your workshop, and I’ll cover the shipping and tax! This month those are Silver Glitter Gems and Silver Shimmer Trim. This offer is only good until Tuesday, October 8, so be sure to let me know by then if you want them. You can simply contact me or add them to your workshop if you’re paying online.

Let me know if you have any questions, and I hope to see you next month!

Thanks,
Bethany Rielage

August Cardmaking Workshops


Close To My Heart has four cardmaking kits in the Seasonal Expressions 2 Idea Book, and I'll be featuring one of them each month from May through August. The kit we'll be working with in August is the So Many Candles Cardmaking Kit!


This kit contains materials for creating 12 cards - six each of two designs. Easy-to-follow instructions guide you in creating two different card designs, but you also have the freedom to make your cards your way!



The cost of the workshop is $30, which covers the workshop kit, shipping and tax, the use of my supplies, and my instruction. Your papers will also be pre-cut and ready for you to assemble! All you need to bring is adhesive.

Here's what's included in the So Many Candles Cardmaking Kit.
  • 1 exclusive workshop stamp set (B-size)
  • 2 sheets of Craft On patterned paper
  • 3 sheets of cardstock (1 Pixie, 1 Black, 1 White Daisy)
  • 1 pack of Gold Glitter Gems
  • 12 white card bases & envelopes
  • printed instructions


If you prefer to just make the cards and not purchase a full kit, you may purchase individual pre-cut card kits in sets of two (one of each design). Each set of two cards will be $5, and I will need to know how many sets you would like when you RSVP.

I will also provide additional stamp sets if you would like to change up the sentiments on your cards.

Sign-Up Deadlines
These sign-up deadlines are for those who want to purchase the full kit. This allows time for ordering and shipping of the kits. If you just want to purchase sets of cards, you have until two days before each event to sign up; however, workshops may fill up before then.

You can RSVP on the Facebook event pages, or you can email, call, or text me to sign up. Space is limited, so sign up soon! If you are a new customer or prefer to use a credit card, please pay for the workshop or card sets online; otherwise, you can pay with cash or check the day of the workshop.

I hope you'll join me for a workshop in August!

Thanks,
Bethany Rielage

July Scrapbooking Workshops


Close To My Heart has four main paper collections in the current seasonal idea book, and I'll be featuring one of them each month from May through August in my monthly scrapbooking workshops. In July we'll be working with the Into the Wild paper collection!



Each paper collection has multiple scrapbooking kits, and you get to choose which one you would like to complete! Close To My Heart has chosen embellishments for the kits to give you two different themes for the paper collection. There is a Workshops Your Way kit or two Deluxe kits, and all the Into the Wild kits make three two-page layouts.

If you choose the Workshops Your Way Into the Wild Scrapbooking Kit, here are the three layouts you will make. These layouts are geared more toward little boys, but you could switch out some of the embellishments to make them more neutral.





If you choose one of the Into the Wild Deluxe Scrapbooking Workshop Kits, these are the layouts you will make. These layouts focus more on the outdoors and are pretty gender-neutral.





The cost of the workshop covers the kit, shipping and tax, and my time pre-cutting your papers. The kits are different prices and include different materials. Click on the links below to see what's included in each kit. If you already own the stamp set in the deluxe workshop, you have the option to purchase a kit without the stamp set.

Workshop Costs

Sign-Up Deadlines

You can RSVP on the Facebook event pages, or you can email, call, or text me to sign up. Space is limited, so sign up soon! If you prefer to use a credit card, you can pay online; otherwise, you can pay with cash or check the day of the workshop.

The World Is Yours

May is National Scrapbooking Month, and Close To My Heart has a brand-new paper collection - The World Is Yours! I also have a ten-page scrapbooking workshop that goes along with collection; keep reading to find out how you can get the cutting and assembly guide!


This exclusive collection is only available in May and includes a paper packet, coordinating cardstock, a new stamp set, and a Cut Above kit. Save 20% when you purchase a bundle containing the entire collection!



The World Is Yours Stamp Set





------------------------

Workshop Guide
I have created my own 10-page scrapbooking workshop for this collection, and I'm so excited to share it with you!


The layouts in this workshop are based on patterns from three how-to books from Close To My Heart -- Reflections and Make It from Your Heart, Volumes 1 and 2. Using my cutting instructions and assembly guide, you will create five two-page 12x12 scrapbooking layouts!

Here are the supplies and tools needed to complete this workshop.

Option 1
Place an order of $25 or more on my Close To My Heart website, and I will send you the cutting guide and assembly instructions for free! Simply send me an email at rielage517@gmail.comafter placing your order, and I will email you the PDF files. This is a great option if you don't have some of the supplies or the how-to books. (Reflections is on clearance right now!)

Option 2
You can purchase the cutting guide and assembly instructions directly from me for $12. This is a great option if you already own the necessary supplies or if you're a CTMH consultant and would like to use the guide to hold your own in-home workshops. When you order, let me know if you're a consultant and would like me to send a consultant permission form with your guides.

Here are pictures of the five layouts you will make with this workshop!











For those of you who like to complete your workshops with me, you can choose to complete this workshop at my May scrapbooking workshops if you want. Just contact me and I'll let you know what you need to do.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. I'm so happy to be able to offer this workshop to you, and I hope you have fun crafting with this fun collection!
