Hello Sweet Friend Card Using Close To My Heart Products

Hello friends!  I hope everyone is well and doing something fun today.  It has been raining again in Southern CA, all day Friday and still raining today.  I don't think it has ever rained this much since I lived here.  It is supposed to stop and then start again on Tues and Wed this week.  We need the rain; but it was pouring all day yesterday and our yard flooded again.

I managed to finally create using some of the Now & Forever Special that is one of favorite CTMH that I bought in January.  The sale ended in February and I think most of the items are out of stock; because they were specials and sold out quickly.  I love the Heart thin cut that I used.  I am so happy that I bought it.  I just wish I had bought more of the paper.  I bought the card kit; which included all the products.

Thank you visiting my blog.  I hope you enjoy my creations.  I appreciate all of you.  Be sure to check out my tabs at the top of the page for my videos, tutorials, clubs, specials and  more. Call, text, Facebook message or email me with any questions you might have.

Click here for my new CTMH Videos. I added CTMH Workspace Wonder products to my desk a few years ago; and I was not able to use my video recorder on my desk after I did that.  It took me a long time to finally come up with a way to do videos with that same recorder; but on a different arm/holder.  Thanks for your patience. 

Remember - Keep On Creating!!
It's Good For Your Health!!
