Oh Happy Day!

It was such a fun mail day today! I wanted to share with you what came in my mailbox today! I LOVE fun mail! I received not one - but THREE handmade Birthday Cards in the mail today! All three are from my awesome Western Hearts Team Members (Close to My Heart Consultants)! So fun that they came from all over the U.S.!

Check out this fun card from Tracy Lunceford in Oregon. It is made with the Topstitch My Reflections Kit and has a velcro closure and ribbon handle, like a little purse! SO cute Tracy! She has used buttons, brads, ric rac, ribbon and waxy flax! Darling! 

Next is a super cute card using the Emporium My Reflections Kit and one of my favorite stamp sets - Headline Alphabet! This card comes from Rita Mefford who lives in New York. Thank you Rita! Such a cute  idea! 

Last, but certainly not least is a darling card made with the Bella My Reflections kit and a cute paper fold that I remember from 'back in the day', that's called a 'cup o' card'. Who remembers these from way back? All good things come back in style again! So cute! This card was made by one of my Directors, Teri Baxter, from Las Vegas, Nevada! Check out that she also stamped on the ribbon  and used a stamp  that she curved to make the 'handle' of the basket - awesome! I love it Teri! You are so creative!

Thanks to all of my team for the birthday wishes! Thank you for remembering and thinking of me! My Team ROCKS! 

Thank you, Jeanette!

I just opened my mailbox and got a fun surprise! A Birthday Card from Jeanette Lynton (CEO and Founder of Close to My Heart) and the Executive Team! Thank you so much Jeanette, Kristine, Monica, Brian and Jeff! I just love getting fun mail, don't you?

This card is so beautiful, I just had to share it with all of you! It uses the Veranda My Reflections Kit, Just Blooms Paper Flowers, Creme Brulee Ribbon Rounds and Bitty Sparkles! The Just Blooms are distressed with Cocoa Ink as well as the edges of all of the papers.

(Do you see how she used the Sparkles on the Dimensional Elements Heart and also to 'dot the i' in 'birthday'?)  Sooo pretty! I love it!

We will be using the Veranda papers and Just Blooms in my May Scrapbook Classes. Let me know if you'd like to join us so you can create with these beautiful products!
