Who's making Summer memories? Our world is a bit strange and crazy, but we're still experiencing summer memories. We are going to the pool an enormous amount, to get outside and exercise. The Summer Vibes collection is a tropical paradise of fun to make pages and cards.

Check out all of these goodies in the new July/August catalog!

These times are a little crazy, and while we are all having rough time, it helps to see the good in all of this. While our son's day care is closed and we are working at home with this new schedule, I am grateful for the extra time to "Seas the Day" to spend with him. We are spending more time together, especially love the outdoor playtime in the water.

Know someone who can't get out of the house? Send them a surprise in their mailbox.

Many of us are at home creating a different set of memories than we are ready for. Close To My Heart has issued a special stamp set to help you remember these unusual days. Know any loved ones who are unable to get online? Make a card and send them something via snail mail.

As you can see, this stamp set is designed to give you icons and sentiments that are ideally suited to present times. This set will be a great tool for you when creating cards to send to loved ones or scrapbook pages to share stories and preserve memories from this time period.

I am a part of a cat/dog swap with a scrappy group of ladies. The only rule is make 6, and use cat or dog images. The current Seasonal Expressions has a stamp set and thin cut combo called Rainbow Bridge. Anyone who has animals knows that they are part of our family. When one passes, their life should be mourned, celebrated and remembered, like any other family member.

The front of this card was CASED from Catscrapping (https://catscrapbooking.com/), a fellow CTMH consultant. Check out her blog. She has loads of great ideas. I love using the technique of cutting sentiments to meet your space needs on the front of the card, like she did with "until we meet again".
The inside of the card is like the design from an Australian consultant, Jasminka Tomkinson, (insta:jasminkatomkinson). Using different color inks on the inside of the card is beautiful. I love the sentiments and sponging technique inside.

All of the cats and dogs were color using a combination of our Shin Han Markers and Copic markers. One of my inspirations for the coloring was a blog post by Mindy at My Creative Scoop. She shows how to make three different dog breeds, and I applied her method to make my dogs and cats.

Did you love the Zoe Reflections Collection when it came out a few years ago? I know I did and made a ton of scrapbook layouts for something that might not have been thought of as related to the Zoe pages. I used them for a series of baseball photos! I love how versatile the layouts and collections are that CTMH creates.
Check out these layouts from the first time Zoe was released.

So guess what? CTMH decided to bring back the ZOE collection for a limited time. Zoe is back in a new, slimmed down paper packet! This paper packet features 6 paper sheets and a full 12″ × 12″ sticker sheet, giving you paper and stickers in the same pack! We’ve refreshed a few of the colors to create this updated pack and paired it with a coordinating cardstock pack and stamp set.

Save 25% on a workshop kit that includes all of these items, which you can use to create the awesome artwork shown here! You can also get a FREE Zoe paper packet when you become a Consultant or host a qualifying party in April!

This collection will only be available through May 31, 2019, while supplies last, so order yours right away!
