So I mentioned in my newsletter that went out yesterday that I would start to share with you the Studio J layouts I created. If time is of the essence for you, then I highly recommending trying Studio J. I created 20 2 page layouts this month while in the comfort of my bed! Here is the start of a series from our vacation to Punta Cana. Enjoy!

April's Special

Hard to believe we are in April now. We have had a few really nice days this week, but today's weather wasn't very springy! However, it sure beats snow!

CTMH has a great campaign lined up for April. Are you a Studio J member? I am & I am taking advantage of this great special. One of the things I love about Studio J is how easy it is to jazz them up & make them look like I made them by adding a few simple embellishments. It only takes me a few seconds as the gems are peel & stick. This month, Studio J members get a free package of each of these embellishments when you buy 10 layouts. Now is a great time to get online & get caught up on all your scrapbooking & when you receive your prints in the mail, you can glam them up with your free gems! If you are not a member yet, what are you waiting for? Studio J memberships give you 50% off of your prints plus free shipping! Contact me here to get started today!

Back in the Saddle!

Wow, 2 posts in one week! And I have managed to update the blog too! What is going on? There must be something...hmm...yup, I found it!

Hope for Japan Stamp Set...

I know you, like me, have probably been watching the news about the devastation in Japan from the earthquakes and tsunami. I can only begin to imagine what these people must be dealing with right now.

I was thrilled to hear that Close to my Heart’s Founder and CEO, Jeanette Lynton, has graciously decided to offer a special way for all of us to make a difference for the Japanese people. A special stamp set has been designed to be sold starting today - April 30th. Typically, our A-size sets retail for $8.75, but the “Hope for Japan” set will be just $5 — and Close To My Heart will be donating 100% of the profits to the American Red Cross to benefit relief efforts in Japan.

This beautifully designed stamp set reminds us of how our hearts are hopeful for those who are in need.

What a great stamp set to add to your collection. Not to mention the great sale I am offering too. Don't delay, my sale ends March 31st. Start shopping here!

ANNIVERSARY SALE!!

Hi Everyone,

I know, I know, it has been a long time since you have heard from me. I have had a lot going on in my personal life since the fall as my Mom was diagnosed with brain & lung cancer, so my side business really hit the sidelines! She is done treatment for now & things are looking ok so I thought it was time to get back on the saddle again :-) In honour of my 3rd year anniversary with Close To My Heart, I would like to extend a special offer to all of you. Any orders placed through me directly until March 31st will save 20%!!! Any orders placed through my website will receive a cheque from me (as I can't change the way the website processes orders) for the 20%!!!! Isn't that great!

It's been awhile...

I didn't realize I had been away from my blog this long! A lot has happened in the last 2 months that I just haven't taken the time. From my last post, I indicated that my Mom's health was not good...well, we have since learned that she has stage 4 lung cancer with brain "mets". It has been a rough 2 months that I just haven't bothered with anything. My sister in law asked me a blogging question last week & told her I would look into it & so here I am, no better time than the present to update too. I hope you are all well & maybe soon, I will have a new artwork post.
