Every day is cause for celebration! September marks the official end of the golden days of summer and the beginning of autumn, with little golden treasures of its own.  Whether it’s enjoying the turning of the leaves or the crisp fall breezes, autumn seems to bring with it countless opportunities for relishing the everyday moments that make life wonderful. This year, the National Stamping Month stamp set gives you the images you need to do just that. The aptly named It’s Your Day stamp set is a  double  set of D-size stamp sets—two sets in one envelope—that helps you commemorate those simple, everyday moments. It includes 48 images, consisting of phrases, borders, and more. You’ll also be delighted to know that many of the images coordinate perfectly with our new Cricut ®  Artiste cartridge for even easier stamping, cutting, and layering!

Retiring Colors… Get ‘em before they’re gone! "Colors are like friends. There are ones that we always turn to when we’re happy, and ones that are best for quiet times. Some stick around for years and years, we can’t imagine life without them. Others come into our lives for a brief time and then exit when when our interests change. It’s time to say goodbye to some old friends, and make way for some new ones." Tresa Black Close to My Heart is updating our exclusive color palette, and you'll  love  the new line up of 40 unique hues, plus 2 shades of white. The new color palette will be released on Aug. 1, 2012. Don’t Miss Out!  If you’re not ready to say bye-bye to the 24 retiring colors, you’ll need to act quickly to stock up on cardstock, stamp pads and re-inkers. These colors may disappear very, very fast. Don’t wait, shop now!  Click here  to go directly to my shopping website.                   ...
