New Thin Cut Dies & Matching Stamps

by CraftyAmanda in Cards, Close to My Heart, CTMH, Scrapbook, Stamping | 3 Comments

It is so easy to stamp an image and then line it up perfectly with our thin cut dies.   If you haven’t tried them,  now would be a great time to start.  So many cute and versatile images will be available August 1st!

So excited about a FULL alphabet thin cut.   There isn’t a “matching” stamp,  but it’s easy to cut out the letters you want,  then stamp them with other images to bring them to life and personalize your project!

And now my favorites in Thin Cuts.  Ones with the matching stamp sets!

Aren’t these fun?    I look forward to seeing what everyone does with these thin cuts.

Happy Crafting!

 

 

 

 

Workspace Wonder Updates

by CraftyAmanda in Close to My Heart, CTMH, Scrapbook, Stamping | 7 Comments

If you haven’t manage to get any of the workspace wonder pieces,  they are worth the investment!  Now CTMH has added some more great pieces and I look forward to  adding them to my set.

I think my favorite is the Medium stack.   I can see that being a wonderful tool to help get stuff up and off of my craft desk.  What’s your favorite?

Happy Crafting!

Double sided Cardstock- Weeee!

by CraftyAmanda in Cards, Close to My Heart, CTMH, Scrapbook, Stamping | 2 Comments

Yes,  Close to My Heart has changed their amazing white core cardstock to make it even better.  Still has the same white core,  but now one side is the true CTMH color and the other side is a shade or two lighter!   This is a game changer for me.  I’ll be able to use one sheet of cardstock to create multi-toned flowers (or other images).

The Complements that coordinate with the color pallets are fresh and current.  Take a Look!

Adventure:

Enchantment:

Whimsy:

And here are the new basics.  If you want to see these in more details,  check out this blog post.

I love the basics complements.  I can see using them on so many projects!

Happy Crafting!

Great New Products are Coming Soon

by CraftyAmanda in Close to My Heart, Cricut, CTMH, Scrapbook, Stamping | Leave a comment

Hi Everyone,
I just finished placing my consultant preview order for some of the new items being shown in the new Annual Inspirations!  (Everyone can order starting August 1st!)   I am very excited about all the new products coming out and I knew you would be too,  so I will try and post new items each day so you can join me in my thrill of the new direction we’re taking with CTMH.

Here’s the cover of the 2017-2018 Annual Inspirations

I’ll start with showing you the new colors in the Basics Collections.  All the current colors, excepting black have been retired and new ones have replaced them.  Black will be a stand alone color just like White Daisy.  Colonial White is also being retired.   Looking at the photo below,  you might notice that our cardstock is now two toned.  The true CTMH color on the dark side and the back is a shade lighter.   (so 20 new colors!) Just remember you can’t order until August 1st!

Toffee

Charcoal

CTMH also redid all the Fundamentals for the basics set.  I can already see these in both scrapbooking and cards!   I’m so looking forward to my goodies arriving.  Too bad it’s the start of haying season!

Fundamentals with beautiful Cmplements to make creating lovely items easy!

The last new item in the Basics collection is the set of pigment ink pads.  I have recently begun using my color pigment inks with clear embossing power on my projects and I don’t have to worry about everything matching!   One more item to add to my future purchases list.  🙂

Love seeing all the new products!

Happy Crafting!
