Sorry for the long absence!

My life has been taken over by the basement remodel lately. The good news is we're almost finished (just trim and touch ups to do!)!

Anyway, I thought I'd post pictures of my stamping space today. I literally have space that is 5' x 8' (I know this because everything is the rug I have on the floor)! This is about as clean as it's gonna get, so here goes!
This is the whole space:

New Product!

Close To My Heart now carries chipboard cubes that are 5 x 5 and can be decorated anyway you like. They come flat and the holes for joining the sides together are pre-punched. Here's one that I decorated with the January Papercrafting Month special - Key To My Heart:



















Everything comes in one package(except the cube): 10 sheets of cardstock (4 neutral and 6 coordinating colors), 12 sheets (2 each of 6 designs) patterned paper and an E-size stamp set ($34.95 value just for the stamp set!)

When you spend $75.00, you can purchase the Key To My Heart promotion for just $20.00. When you spend $130.00, the kit is FREE! You can also buy it outright for $47.90.

This offer is good the month of January only, so get yours today!

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season!
