I'm baaaack!!!


Guess who’s dusting off the keyboard and diving back into the blog world? (Spoiler: It’s me!)

Life has been full, busy, and beautifully messy, but one thing I’ve missed? Sharing my love for scrapbooking, creativity, and memory-keeping with all of you. There’s something magical about turning moments into something tangible—pages filled with stories, laughter, and love. So, I’m bringing this blog back to life, ready to inspire, create, and connect. Whether you’re a seasoned crafter or just love a good DIY project, I can’t wait to share new ideas, tips, and a whole lot of creative fun!

If you’ve been following my crafty journey, you know how much I’ve loved sharing my passion for scrapbooking and memory-keeping. With Close to My Heart closing its doors, it felt like the end of an era—but creativity doesn’t stop there! I’m excited to announce that Ive been a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator for 8 months, and I hope to keep inspiring, teaching, and creating with you all.

Stampin’ Up! offers gorgeous papers, stamps, and tools that make crafting easy and fun, and I’m here to help you every step of the way—whether you need fresh ideas, help with memory-keeping, or just a place to connect with fellow creatives.

If you’re as excited as I am, drop a comment and let me know what you’d love to see! More tutorials? Scrapbooking challenges? Behind-the-scenes peeks? Let’s make this space a creative haven together!

CTMH- Everything ABC's Blog Hop- E is for Easter

Welcome to the Everything ABC's Blog Hop! For this hop we will be featuring the letter E. This may be the name of a paper, a stamp set or an embellishment. Whatever the crafter has chosen as their E element will be featured in their post. If you have just hopped onto my blog, you can start at the beginning at Amber's blog ~ Scrapper's Therapy  If you came from Shelly ~ Just One Piece then you're on the right track! E is for EASTER You may recall a few months ago, I posted a couple layouts from the baby album I am making for my niece.... well she's now 3 months old and I only finished through 4 months!  I have some work to do..... Today I created an Easter Layout using THIS layout as my inspiration.  The Chantilly paper pack is perfectly girly and springy!  I cut two strips of the green pattern, then sliced it up to make it look like grass.  Using Art Philosophy, I cut out a bunch of different eggs in 1 1/2", 1 3/4" and ...

CTMH- Washi Tape Card

Do you WASHI???   Washi Tape is one of the new and super trendy products being used.  I'm not afraid to jump on the bandwagon :)  CTMH now has a Slate Polka-Dot Washi Tape (and I HOPE there are lots more to come!!!)  I also have picked up a couple others at Michaels recently. This weeks Color My Heart Color Dare is JUNIPER.  I decided to use Juniper as the accent color for my card today. I used the black banner stamp set from Artiste Kudos , CTMH's Slate Washi Tape , CTMH's Silver Shimmer Trim and a black arrow washi tape.  The sentiment is from Artiste Birthday , stamped in Juniper, then popped on foam tape. A simple card like this, called for some dressing up of the inside too.  I stamped Happy Birthday from Perfect Fit Birthday and added some Slate Washi Tape to the bottom. Head over to Color My Heart to check out the other color dare entries :)
