 What's up at Close To My Heart, you ask?  Let me tell you.

1.  The March/April Catalog is now live.  Come check out the great paper lines - Cake Day (pictured on the cover) and In Full Bloom - as well as coordinating mix-in papers and cardstock packs.  And don't even get me started on the fabulous selection of stamps!  How does CTMH keep offering such great images for our crafting pleasure.

2.  Cardstock Carnival is in full swing.  Don't miss this chance to stock up on one of the most valuable staples in your stash at substantial savings.  CTMH has a regular shade and a lighter shade to each piece of its double-sided cardstock.  And they are now introducing a cardstock bundle featuring UV coatings.  Check it out.

4. Registration for April Album Retreat is now open!  This awesome virtual crafting event will take place on April 20–22 and will feature an entire album’s worth of gorgeous scrapbooking pages with unique inking and stenciling techniques! With a festive celebration theme, this album is perfect for any special occasion, or special everyday moments.  Above are just 3 of the double layouts (of 11 total) that make up the album.
 
To participate in this event, simply purchase the album bundle (EB20225). A separate fixed shipping cost will apply to each bundle purchase. There is no separate registration fee, and CTMH will begin shipping bundles shortly after April 2, when registration ends. If you order your Album Retreat bundle along with other items, please note that it will be shipped out separately from the other items on your order. We look forward to creating with you!
