This sale ends December 31 at 11:59 pm (MDT), or while supplies last, whichever comes first.  You can see and purchase these little bundles on my website here. There are so many fun things you can do with mini albums.  They are great to give as a gift, great for a themed album (like a vacation, baby's first month, friends), brag books, family photos album, and so much more!

December Specials with Close To My Heart

Standard {4 1/4" x 5 1/2"} card I created with the December Stamp of the Month (Thoughtful Flowers)

Happy December! The crazy rush of the holidays is upon us.  Sometimes, in the midst of all the crazy, I need to "de-stress."  One of my favorite ways to do that is to sit down and look through a scrapbook or two. It always brings back such great memories, evokes a giggle or two, and (gasp) a few tears.  My scrapbooks are treasures to my family and me. I love the look of delight on my grandkids' faces when they see photos of themselves and we talk about the memories of that occasion.  I love listening to my kids reminisce (although I swear their memories of their childhood and their 'mean mom' are much different than the real thing!).  Anyway, all of that leads me to tell you about one of December's specials.  You can read about it in #1 below. Discounted mini-album bundles are a GREAT gift to loved ones, and even better if you fill it with memories before giving it to them! We have several to choose from!

Here are this month's specials:
1.  It's the Little Things (discounted mini-album bundles)
2.  December Stamp of the Month
3.  2017 Planners and Fillers
----------------

1.  It's the Little Things:  Adorable mini albums for celebrating the little things you love!  So often it's the little things that matter most--and what better way to celebrate the little things in life than with adorable mini-albums?  Whether looking for a meaningful gift idea or a treasured keepsake, these mini albums are a fast and easy option, and this month you save 30% off the retail price of the products you need!  And that's not all!!  Persnickety Prints (in my opinion, the best place to order high quality prints...especially in unique sizes like 2x2, 4x4, 3x4, and more!) has coupled with us on this special. When you purchase your bundle on my website, there will be a link where you can go straight to Persnickety Prints' website and choose the prints you need. The link will take you to a page where you can see the album collections and a link for the correct sizes of photos!

Memorial Day Weekend SALE + Create a "Memory"ial!!!!

Hello, hello! Did you see my post yesterday?  You know, the one with the layout of our beautiful daughter that I created by taking apart our new "My Crush - For Her" mini-album?  If you are looking for something a little more masculine, you could do something similar with the "My Crush - For Him" mini as well.

With Memorial Day happening on Monday, what better time to create a memory-ial?  You could use one of these little 4" x 6" mini-albums like they are created, and fill it with photos and journaling...or you could create a few layouts by taking it apart, like I did! 

So, with that in mind, here is my Memorial Day Weekend Sale (US residents only):

1. Head to my website and start shoppin':  www.leavealegacy.ctmh.com 
2. Spend $50 (before shipping and tax) and get a FREE  "My Crush - For Her" or "My Crush - For Him" mini album from me ($10.95 value). Hint: With Father's Day just around the corner, the "My Crush - For Him" could be just the ticket!
3. Spend $100 (before shipping and tax) and get a second FREE "My Crush - For Her" or "My Crush - For Him" mini- album from me  ($10.95 value).
4. Don't forget that for every $50 you spend, you also get the May Stamp of the Month ("Just Sayin'") for $5 ($12.95 savings). Spend $100, get 2...and so on.

Each book 30 - 4" x 6" pages in a mix of styles (printed cardstock-weight paper, mini-page protectors, printed vellum) and is bound with a darling and durable exposed metal spiral spine.

Sale runs from Friday, May 22 through Monday, May 25.  

Sale ends at 11:59 pm  (MST) on May 25!

How does I get the special?

1. Place your order on my website (special is based on order total before shipping and tax)
2. Email me (pedermom@aol.com) with your choice of My Crush Mini(s) and the address you would like it shipped to.
3. I will mail you your My Crush Mini separately from your order, along with a hand-stamped thank you card AND a FREE Seasonal Expressions II Mini-Catalog. 

 

Think about it:
If you spend $50, get one FREE My Crush Mini and a $5 Stamp of the Month, then you are getting about $79 in value for your $55.

If you spend $100, get two FREE My Crush Mini's and two $5 Stamps of the Month (give one away as a gift!), then you are getting $158 for your $110.

That's a bargain, peeps!

She Glows 2-Page Maternity Layout

May is National Scrapbooking Month and what better way to celebrate than to SCRAPBOOK?  I recently attended an awesome Close To My Heart event, and one of the projects we created was two layouts featuring pages from the darling "My Crush - For Her" book. This mini-scrapbook was introduced in the Seasonal Expressions II mini-catalog, which you can order from through August 31.

I chose to populate these layouts with photos from our daughter, Kori's recent maternity shoot. This is baby #4 for her and she couldn't look more beautiful!

We just simply took the book apart (what a brilliant idea!) and used the pages, coupled with a bit of cardstock, stamps, ink and a few embellishments to create gorgeous full-size (12" x 12") layouts.  I will be sharing the 2nd layout next week.

Here is what you need to know about the darling "My Crush For Her" mini-album:  It has 30 - 4" x 6" pages in a mix of styles (printed cardstock-weight paper, mini-page protectors, printed vellum) and is bound with a darling white spiral metal spine.

 

Here are a few details of the layout.  As you can see in the photos below, we even used one of the plastic photo sleeves from the mini-book to create a layout with a little bit of interaction (and room for a few more photos!). Since I had tons of beautiful photos from our daughter, Kori's maternity shoot, this was a great way to showcase more of them!

All supplies we used on this layout are listed, complete with photos and links for your convenience, at the bottom of this post. All of these products can be purchased on my website.
