FREE Catalog and a Sneak Peek

As you know, our Seasonal Expressions 1 mini-catalog is ending on March 31 (Tuesday).  I posted all of the retiring products on Wednesday for you to purchase before they're gone (March 31).  Our Seasonal Expressions 2 (SE2) mini begins on April 1.  I'd love to send you one (US residents only). If you email me with your address (pedermom@aol.com), I'll pop one in the mail to you pronto, for FREE!

In the spirit and excitement of the new SE2, I thought I'd post a tiny sneak peek (see top photo).  I will be unveiling this card, and several others, using this fun technique and products from the new SE2 book, complete with instructions on how to do it yourself, on April 3.  That's only a week from today.  Be sure to stop back by.

In the meantime, as mentioned above, email me (pedermom@aol.com) with your name and mailing address, and I'll pop the SE2 mini in the mail to you right away so you'll be ready to start purchasing on April 1.

FREE Embossing Folders!

Sneaky Peeky!

The "Embossing is Boss" special ends with February. Don't miss out on FREE embossing folders. Head to my website to order: www.leavealegacy.ctmh.com

The photo above is a sneak peek at a card I made using the March Stamp of the Month (Happy Place) and the Chevron embossing folder. You may be able to tell that I gently sanded my chevron design after embossing (notice that I left that part in focus and blurred the rest. Tricky! That is so you'll come back to see the whole card in March).  I love the sanded dry embossed look, and because Close To My Heart's cardstock has a white core, it is especially beautiful to sand!  Be sure to check back in a few days to see the whole card.

Sneak Peek! Holiday Gift Guide Card

The Holiday Gift Guide goes live on October 15.  Be watching for a link to it on my blog that day. Also, I am participating in my first ever blog hop on the 15th!  Several amazing Close To My Heart artists have gotten together to form a blog hop with new product from the Holiday Gift Guide.  I was honored to be invited to participate. So, like I said, be sure to check back here on Tuesday, October 15 for that and a link to the guide.

In the meantime, here's a little sneak peek to wet your whistle!  This is not one of the pieces of art I'll be sharing on October 15 for the blog hop, but one I will share later next week.  How 'bout that cute washi tape tree?

Flirty Sneaky Peekies

Hi, all!  Next month (November) in my Play Group scrappin' classes we will be using the awesome Close To My Heart "Flirty" paper pack filled with trendy Fall colors and fun patterns to make three 2-page 12" x 12" layouts.

I will be posting those pages next week as well as the kit costs and class dates but in the meantime, I thought I'd wet your whistle just a little bit with a few sneaky peekies...

Don't forget that you can shop for your favorite paper crafting supplies on my website 24/7...even in your jammies.  Have an awesome weekend!
