The New CTMH Idea Book is Coming

 

The new Close to My Heart Idea Book is less than two weeks away and I am so excited.  There are many new items in this book that I can't wait to get.  First and foremost is the new Cricut cartridge called " Artbooking". As with the other two CTMH cartridges, there are over 700 images included with this cartridge.  "Artbooking" has many overlays for scrapbook pages and cards, as well as phrases, cute shapes and a new alphabet.   Below is a small sample of what I mean -

Do you like what you see?  If so and you can't wait to get this cartridge either, mark your calendars for August 1 and click the shopping cart to visit me on my website.


Keep scrappin,

Procrastination

Procrastination, at times that word should be my middle name.  Procrastinate is exactly what I did when it came to ordering the Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge set.  I waited to order it until the end of August and when I did, it was on back order.  Now mind you, although I knew I was going to be ordering it at the end of the month, I was okay with waiting, but once it was on order, I couldn't wait until it shipped.  Imagine my disappointment when I found out it was on back order and the ship date would be on or before September 12th.   I checked my email every day sometimes more than once hoping it was shipping, but no shipping notice came.  Then September 12th and I had received my shipping notice. Well, it was delivered late last week, and I have to tell you, I have been playing with it and having lots of fun.  With 700 images on the cartridge, I think I will be having tons of ideas for a long time. Besides the cartridge, the set also contains 3 stamp sets and chipboard Dimensional Elements providing hours and hours of creative fun.

I made these 2 layouts using Olivia, a paper set from last fall and the Cricut cartridge and stamp set.  I just love the leaf and acorn.
