I am so excited to tell you about a new subscription program from Close To My Heart called Craft With Heart.  In this program, you'll get ready-to-make scrapbook layouts delivered directly to your door! 

Craft with Heart will be available in monthly, 4-month, and 12-month subscription options--you can decide which option works best for you. The monthly and 4-month options are not available until September 1, but the 12-month subscription option is available a month early so you can get started with the program RIGHT NOW!

You'll find the BEST DEAL with the 12-month program. With the 12-month subscription, you will receive all four layout kits in one box three times a year at a 20% discount, plus FREE SHIPPING! AND . . . with the 12-month subscription only, you will also receive a code from Persnickety Prints for 30 FREE 4″ x 6″ PRINTS with each delivery! That’s 90 free 4″ x 6″ prints each year!  So, if you sign up now, you'll soon receive a delivery with EIGHT two-page layouts ready to assemble and add photos AND your coupon for 30 free prints from Persnickety Prints. 

Each kit comes with all of the pieces to make (2) two-page 12″ x 12″ layouts. Kits include: base pages, pre-cut pieces and die-cuts, stickers, photo placeholders, and page protectors—all you need really need to complete these pages is adhesive and a journaling pen!   These are designed for customers who want beautiful pages they can get done in a short amount of time!

Here's a look at the layout kits scheduled for the next few months.  If you select the 12-month subscription, you'll get ALL of these layout kits in your first box.  Then, in January, you'll get another box with four more layout  kits.

AUGUST IS JUST AWESOME!!

I've been a Close to My Heart Consultant for 21 years, and NEVER have we had this many specials running in ONE month!  And, we haven't even gotten to that fantastic new catalog that's coming out in September.  Let's see if I can accurately describe each one of these incredible specials.  Remember to visit my WEBSITE to order any of these specials or get more specific details/prices.  

SPECIAL #1:  Bring Pack My Pack--More Magical (Aug. 1st-Sept. 30th)

Close to My Heart has brought back a re-vamped version of our awesome Disney-ish Magical paper pack.  This was a REALLY popular paper pack a few years ago, so I know my customers will be happy to have it back.  As part of this special, you can buy the More Magical Paper Pack for $10.95, the More Magical Coordinating Cardstock Pack for $9.95, the "Dreams" Acrylic stamp set for $18.95. . .OR, you can get all of these items, plus some fun accessories in a special kit for $39.95.  You can also download the instruction guide to make FOUR two-page layouts and EIGHT cards using this kit.  WHAT???!!!  All I can say is. . .it's just MAGICAL!!!




Special #2:  You've Got Class

This HAS to be one of the most practical school albums I've seen.  I did a school album class a year or two ago, and though I tried to keep it simple, it was still a lot of work.  This one is SO MUCH BETTER!  So, for the You've Got Class special (now through September 30th), you can order a special pack of paper for $7.95 and the coordinating cardstock for $5.95 (so affordable).  They've also featured the School Kids stamp set and Thin Cuts (this adorable set came out a year or two ago. . .so cute) and the NEW You've Got Class Stamp Set.  You can purchase these items separately or get ALL of these items in a special Workshop Kit (along with True Fit Folios, Flip Flaps and accessories) for $61.95.  AND, you can download a guide for creating a one-page layout per school year.  

Now, let me explain the True Fit Folio thing. . .True Fit Folios are giant white 12 x 12 file folders.  Basically, you'll use these folders as your base page for each year of school--then you can tuck all of your student's memorabilia into that file folder, which slides down into your page protector.  SO CLEVER!!!  I'm also happy that the True Fit Folios will be available individually, if you decide you just NEED some of these cool folders.







Special #3:  Here's to You

I mentioned this special in the previous post. . .it started July 15th and runs through the end of August.  This special features four gorgeous sentiment stamps that you can buy individually or as part of a workshop kit.  I put the cards together, and they look great!  Note that the workshop kit (which you can download off my website) includes a Design Space cutting file that you can use on your Cricut Explore.  If you don't have an Explore, they've also included directions for which CTMH cartridges and cuts you'd need to make.  As always, with any of these kits, you can follow them exactly or go rogue and do anything you like with the kit!  




Special #4:  August Stamp of the Month--For the Love of Crafting

Isn't this such a cute stamp set?!!  It would make a great gift for a crafty friend.  You can buy it at the retail price of $17.95 or get it for $5 with any $50 qualifying purchase (the above specials count as part of your $50 order).
