Close To My Heart Retiring Cricut Cartridges

Good morning.

URGENT!!  URGENT!!!  Close To My Heart is retiring 3 Cricut Cartridges on July 31, 2016.  If you want them, head over to my shop and get them before they are gone.



Below are direct links to the cartridges that are retiring and to the main Cricut page on my site.

Cricut Collections
Art Philosophy  -  great all purpose cartridge. It has a little of everything.  One of my all time faves and go to cartridges
Artiste -  mostly 3D items like flowers, boxes, purses, envelopes. But does have a few elements that can be used on cards or on your layouts.  Has a couple cards too.
Artfully Sent - a must have for cardmakers.  This has cards for every occasion.  Loads of embellishments too that can also be used in scrapbook layouts, project life, art journaling and more.

Really....  I know I am going to get questions on which one I would choose (of course I have them all)  but if I didn't have any of them, my first choice would be the Art Philosophy because of how versatile it is.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me or leave a comment below.
Have a great weekend.

Card Shares

Hey everyone.....

I just wanted to share come cards that I made this past week.  I had a lot going on and didn't get to record  videos on these.

The first card I made for my step son.  He needed some invitations made for his birthday party.  I used a stamp set from Close To My Heart that is exclusive to the Art Philosophy Cartridge.  I stamped the cupcake, the sentiment and on the inside the date time RSVP Etc. all from the same stamp set.  I had Adrian color the cupcake with our Shinhan Twin Tip Markers. He picked out the color scheme and paper.

The next card I made for my mother's birthday.  I used paper from my stash and I had all these layout plans but changed them because the paper was too pretty to cover up.  The Label was created using coordinating cuts and stamps from Artfully Sent Cricut Cartridge by Close To My Heart  The inside leaf is from the the same Art Philosophy Cartridge that the previous card used.
