Close To My Heart Cricut Card & This Week's Blog Giveaway!

What a crazy week we are having! I'm just trying to take deep breaths and think positive. I know God is in control and will get us through this. Besides, I have plenty to do to keep me busy at home and stay crafty! I sent out a 30 Day Crafting Challenge on Facebook. Feel free to head over to my business page by clicking the link above. Share with your friends too! I am also packing my schedule with plenty of fun things to inspire you as well as making all of my classes and workshops virtual.

Cricut Everyday Moments Card

Today I wanted to show you this super cute Cricut Card using our NEWEST Close To My Heart Cricut Collection called Everyday Moments. There are some really pretty scrapbook pages and cards. What's wonderful about the set is there are so many individual design elements that you can change, mix-n-match or make the project as designed.

Cricut is such an amazing company!  I just received this in my email box:

Dear Cricut members, We want you to know we are here for you. Many of you, including Cricut employees, are taking extra precautions to stay safe. This means working from home, preoccupying kids, and even canceling plans for travel and entertainment. We know that crafting is a form of therapy and brings joy to so many people. To that end, our focus at Cricut will be to help our members stay inspired, find peace of mind, and keep connected – if only virtually – during this unusual time. Starting now, here are a few ways we hope to make your life a little easier:

Free Images – So you can make more, we've made an additional 1,000 images FREE in Design Space for a limited time – that’s on top of the usual free cut images! To keep things fresh, we’ll swap out the image sets over the next few weeks (we recommend opening the link on Design Space for Desktop). Free Shipping – From now through March 31st, 2020, shipping on every cricut.com order is on us. We promise to stay in touch regarding any delays that may occur due to the extra safety measures we’re taking to keep our logistics partners and employees safe. Member Care – Our committed Member Care team will be working from home. Apologies in advance for potential delayed response times. You can always check out the help site and blog for FAQ & tutorials.

Now you can craft away! Just remember that if you make any purchases, click on SHOP above. Then scroll down to the very bottom and click on the Cricut symbol to go to my affiliate link.

About Me

Hello! I have been a life long crafter, creator, designer and all around artsy-fartsy kind of person! I began my love of art as a child drawing everything but mostly the horses on my grandparents farm. After that, I dabbled in college with Graphic Design and Fine Arts. Through my adult life I have loved all things creative! I get a great amount of excitement teaching others how to stamp, make cards and scrapbook memories. I look forward to getting to know you better!

Hugs & Happy Crafting!
