Scaredy Cat Kit

I love taking pictures of my littles in their Halloween costumes. They just look so cute all dressed up. This year I decided to make a layout ahead of time so that it is all ready to go once I get the pictures printed. Here is it the Scaredy Cat Layout using a Scaredy Cat Kit.

 It is a two page layout and has lots of space for pictures of my littles. I am so excited about this layout! Oh and in case you are wondering the ribbon is only attached to the back of my photos so I can still get my photos underneath it. 

The Scaredy Cat Kit (only available through me for this price) includes all the paper that you will need (and will only leave you with a few scrapes), a full Scaredy Cat Assortment (Z3011) and a full Black Striped Twill Ribbon (Z1988). It also includes a colored flyer with instructions.

Cost of kit:

Local

$33 with the stamp (this includes a $3 discount!)

$18 NO stamp and FULL ribbon

$14 NO stamp and sharing the ribbon with me.

$12 NO stamp and NO ribbon

We will meet at my house on November 8th at 8:30 to put it together.

But what if you can't come that day, or you aren't local? Guess what all we have to do is add the Halloween Greetings Stamp Set to your order (D1605) and you will be set. Oh, and you will need a Black ink pad (Z2105) and a Thistle ink pad (Z2640) (or a light purple ink pad will work as well.).

Out of town cost (all kits will ship out around November 8):

$36 this will include the stamp and FULL ribbon. This month only I will also include free shipping and I will pay your tax:)

$29 includes stamp and NO ribbon

If this is something you are interested in or have quesetions you can email me at sharesalarsen@gmail.com. See you all tomorrow with some more Scaredy Cat fun!

October Specials

October is one of my favorite months and Close to My Heart is making it even better by giving away a FREE Chevron ribbon. During the month of October, with each qualifying purchase of $50 USD / $55 CAD Close to My Heart will send you—as a special bonus—one of two chevron ribbons FREE! Each chevron ribbon—Ruby or Outdoor Denim—has an original retail value of $6.95 USD / $7.75 CAD. So which ribbon will you get? It’s a surprise! (I LOVE surprises, don't you!) Quantities are limited, so place your orders as early in the month as possible.

October also brings a new stamp of the month. October's stamp of the month will get you in the holiday mood, and give you plenty of time to make your tags for all your gifting needs. It is called Home for the Holidays and has some really cute images to make your gift tags really special. I just love giving gifts with a personal touch! Here are just a few examples made with this stamp set.

I will be back tomorrow with a fun layout and kit to get you all in the mood for Halloween!

Last Day for a Free Stamp Set

Today is the last day to get your #30yearsofhappy stamp set for free.

Just go to here to order $30 of stamp sets and add the #30yearsofhappy to your cart. While there if you are in love with the stamp of the month (and who isn't, so cute!), just add a few more items to your cart to get to $50 and the Family is Forever stamp set is yours for $5.

Also in case you wanted to know I am coming back tomorrow with a fun Halloween themed scrapbook layout and kit. I can't wait to show you!

More Chalk It Up

Here are some pictures of the second layout you can make using the Chalk It Up Workshop on the Go. The instructions for this layout can be found on my website here. 

Chalk It Up Workshop on the Go

I am in love with the Chalk It Up paper and assortments. Because I love the paper and the assortments I went ahead and got the Workshop on the Go (G1081). It comes with the Chalk It Up paper (X7184B), Chalk It Up Assortment (Z3009), an exclusive stamp set that you can only get in this kit, and a full round of Black Striped Twill Ribbon (Z1988). It also inclused a beautiful, full color brochure with easy to follow cutting guides and helpful hints for putting the layouts together. This kit also uses the Artbooking Cricut Cartridge (Z1906), but if you don't have a cricut you can still do this layout by following the alternate cut guide included in the brochure. One reason why I love the Workshops on the Go is that everything I need (except the stamp pads and clear blocks) is included in the kit at a discount. These kits are only $29.95 and that is such a great deal. Here is one of the layouts using this Workshop on the Go:

If you want to get your own kit, just click here. And while visiting my site, don't forget about the specials running this month: FREE #30yearsofhappy stamp set with $30 in stamps and the Stamp of the Month for $5 with any $50 purchase.

September Specials

AH! So it has been awhile, sorry?!? Something about homeschooling, 4 kids, piano teaching and living life got in the way of my Close to My Heart business. So in case you were wondering, I am still here, I am still creating and I am still using Close to My Heart and loving it. I thought that I would just share the two specials that are going on right now with Close to My Heart and then I will come back and show you some of the things that I have been working on, and I may have a few things that are coming up, so make sure you come back (and I will too!).

First off, September is National Stamping month and for the next week you can get the #30yearsofhappy stamp set for FREE. All you have to do is purchase $30 in stamps and this set is yours. Since blogger isn't letting me upload a picture you will have to go here to see what it looks like and while you are there you might as well buy it too :)

(Blogger let me add a photo!)

The second special is the September stamp of the month which is only $5 with a $50 purchase. If you purchase $30 of stamps and $20 of other things you will get #30yearsofhappy free as well as the Stamp of the month for $5. Super savings when you can double dip like that! Remember that blogger problem with pictures, yup still in play so just click here to see what the stamp set looks like and to get yours before the month is over.

(Blogger let me add a photo!)

The last thing that I wanted to tell you is that the new cricut cartridge is available. It has 700 images just like the other cartridges, still comes with the overlay and is in a bundle that includes 3 stamp sets and a full pack of Daisy White cardstock, which is perfect since this cartridge is all about cards. You can check it out here.

Just a few Layouts to Share

Hey all! I thought that since I haven't posted in awhile I might as well post some pictures of a couple of layouts that I have finished. These are pictures of that 10 page workshop I was working on. Sorry that it is too late for you to order the paper, but I hope you enjoy anyway. I will confess having this last baby is making everything go slower and take longer, so I am not making any more promises about blogging on a consistent basis. But I will keep posting when I have a minute or two. I hope you enjoy these layouts and I hope to post some more soon. Have a great day!
