Good morning Crafty Friends. Today's blog post is all about the wonderful new products that have recently gone live with Close To My Heart. Two, yes that's right, TWO Idea books have released a great range of fantastic new craft products for you to play with.
Please come on over to my online store: Julie's Online Store
Close To My Heart have always stocked great quality, affordable craft supplies for paper crafters, which is why I love them so much. This year the mixed media range has been expanded. I'm so excited to learn new techniques with new to me products. Over the next few months I will be featuring lots of new techniques.
Here are some highlights of the new products:
Craft With Heart: Scrapbooking and Cardmaking subscriptions. Craft With Heart subscriptions send you wonderful new layout and card kits to your door each month. They come with everything you need to complete the projects, and clear, easy to use instructions. They are a great idea to add to your crafting kit as they give you quick pages to put your photos on, or provide great cards.
New paper suites: So many beautiful papers, some: 'Lovely', 'Party Time', 'Wood Grain', 'Foils' and solid colours will be available for a full year. 'Bloom and Grace' and 'Comfort and Joy' are a get them while you can'' issue, only available for September and October. Get in quick with those wonderful papers.
Stamp sets: What can I say, you know how I love my stamp sets and the current release does not disappoint. I think I will just let you go online to my store and check these out for yourselves. Just remember some are only available for September and October, so if you have a favourite, get in quick.
I just want to mention, the stamp sets come in two different styles. There is the traditional stamp sets then there are the stamp and thin cut sets. These sets have matching thin cuts with the stamp sets and are a great idea if you are not a fan of fussy cutting. I know some of you will love these!
Close To My Heart have partnered with leaders in their field to bring us lucky customers great how to programs to enhance our crafting. Again, I will let you check these out on my online store, but please check out 'Melissa Esplin' and 'Story By Stacy' programs. I think you will love them as much as I do.
Thin Cuts: Close To My Heart thin cuts can be used with any die cutting machine. They are great quality and really stand up to heavy usage, trust me on that one!!! There are so many wonderful new thin cut designs, again though some are only for the short two month September-October period. Some favourites of mine, (all really) Bows. Easily make your own bows to put on your pages and cards. This one is in my first order so I will be bringing you some artwork using these in the coming months. Stitched Hexagons: 5 different sizes of hexagons, they look fab on cards and pages alike.There are now so many different shapes, great, versatile thin cuts to use on all kinds of projects.
I think I need to stop there I could go on for hours about Close To My Heart's thin cuts, please come on over and check them out.
Embossing folders: 4 new and stunning embossing folders, a wood grain, 2 floral and a dot.
Liquid Pearls: Oh my, what can I say. Little dots of deliciousness.... to say I'm in love with these has to be an understatement. Like Stickles you are probably already familiar with, but a solid colour. Add a touch of colour and texture to your projects with this range.
Stickles: So many more colours, I have been using Stickles on my projects for quite some time. I love them so much sometimes I have to STOP myself from putting them on the page.... Check out the new colours.
Shimmer Brushes: I can't say enough about these versatile little tools.... I use mine ala the time, the clear one adds a great little layer of sparkle, and the colours are divine. Now Close To My Heart have released so many more colours. There are now 24 colours. So many to chose from.
More new products, Stickles Glitter Gel, Gloss Spray, Distress Oxide Inks and Stencils. I won't say much about these at the moment as each of these I will be featuring in upcoming projects. Please have a look for yourself on my online store.
Every year Close To My Heart has a Colour of the Year, which is only available for the year. This year the Colour is Bluebell. Its a stunning colour, I know I will be using it a lot. I kind of regret only ordering one pack of the paper in my first order, I think it will be used very quickly.
Now I have really just touched the surface of the many, many beautiful products released by Close To My Heart. This blog could have been so much longer, but you are all probably asleep by now. If not, well done for sticking with me until the end!
Come on over to my online store and have a browse yourself. Let me know what you think, leave a comment about what you would like to try.
Its very easy to place an order and it can be delivered quickly to your door. Now I have to say, somehow Close To My Heart orders are getting to us quicker than my Australian orders! So please don't let it put you off they are coming internationally, you will still only have to wait about a week for your goodies.
I think I should sign off now, till next time happy crafting friends. oh, if you would like to contact me with any questions, please see my contacts below:
