"I Heart Us" Rainbow 12 Card Workshop! It's here

"I Heart Us" Rainbow 12 Card Workshop 

I am so excited to share with you these bright, fun and happy cards made with the Close to my Heart Collection - I Heart Us! I have designed 12 Rainbow cards for this fun workshop using the 'I heart us' Picture my Life Cards and 'I heart us' Complements. All the sentiments of love and happiness come from a cute new stamp set - Wordfetti. 

I love the happy rainbows, cute butterflies and bright flowers in this card Workshop. I've used some fun tools like Fancy Tag thin cuts, new Playful Scallops Embossing Folder and Mini Stapler to make them extra fancy. I've topped them off with some pretty 'I Heart Us' sequins for extra sparkle. Here are a few of my favourite cards from the Workshop. 

 

I have designed this 12 Card Workshop along with detailed Instructions including 12 full colour photos. You will be able to create these cards in the comfort of your own home with just a few supplies from the new Seasonal Expressions Ideas Book. If you live in Australia you can receive the "I heart us" Rainbow 12 Card Workshop Instructions for FREE (via email) with any purchase of $30 or more in my online Close to my Heart store.

This 12 Card Workshop file will also be available to purchase for a cost of $10 Australian dollars (via PayPal) for Close to my Heart Consultants, who would like to use them to grow their business. Email me for more information at goldilocksgifts@gmail.com

Looking forward to sharing more happy artwork with "I heart us" Collection with you all in February   

Happy crafting,

Jane Molloy xoxo

It's here, National Scrapbook Month!

It's here, National Scrapbook Month

May is finally here and I couldn't be happier as it's National Scrapbooking Month. We are celebrating the art of memory keeping, which I am so passionate about. I love being creative with pretty papers, stamps and stickers to tell my stories with my favourite photos. It's so important to print your photos and document your life. You are the only one qualified to tell "your" story. I love reliving all my favourite memories and moments when I pick up my photos from the Print shop and then when I adhere those photos to the pages in my Scrapbook each year. It brings me so much joy. 

This year to celebrate National Scrapbook Month, Close To My Heart has released an exclusive product collection, Postcard Perfect. It's so tropical and fun with rich warm hues of orange and yellow that compliment soft, fresh mint and deep rays of blue. Make your favourite memories look “Postcard Perfect” with this collection of coordinating Postcard Perfect products, including a paper packet, stamp set, coordinating cardstock pack, and Cut Above layout kit! Save 20% when you buy the Postcard Perfect Product Bundle, which includes one of every item in the full collection! You can also earn a FREE Postcard Perfect Cut Above Layout Kit by signing up as a Consultant or hosting a qualifying party this month.

The subtle beachy patterns in this range represent my Hometown of the Gold Coast, perfectly. Beachy titles, cute flamingos and tropical palm trees remind me of my family holidays from my childhood. Do you have photos that would match these papers? Perhaps you have been on a South Pacific Cruise or a relaxing holiday to sunny Florida or Hawaii. Maybe you love to spend your weekends at your favourite beach with your friends and family. This exclusive collection is perfect to scrapbook your treasured Holiday memories.

A neat new feature of this exclusive Postcard Perfect paper pack is a 12" x 12" sheet of die-cut shapes. You can fussy cut out the titles, frangipanis, flamingos and palm trees to add as embellishments to your scrapbook pages. I just love this idea. 

Close To My Heart has produced an exclusive matching stamp set, Postcard Perfect. I love the large vacation titles on this set of 9 stamps along with the pretty frangipanis. I had so much fun stamping these shapes to add to some beautiful cards I made this month. These cards were designed by my friend and talented Consultant, Jacquie Paech. The instructions to create this 20 Card Workshop are available for free with the purchase of any Postcard Perfect products this month.

Well I hope you have lots of fun scrapbooking in May to celebrate National Scrapbook Month. It really is the best way to be creative and preserve your stories and photos in a meaningful way. I am currently Scrapbooking family photos from last year to add to my  2016 Album. Please share in the comments below what project you will be working on this month so we can all be inspired.

Happy crafting my friends.


With Love,
