Holiday Expressions Idea Book Tour - City Sidewalks


Let's talk about Christmas for a minute. Don't hate me, but you all know it will come faster then we think. Close to My Heart has some amazing products to get you through the holidays. There is so much I am going to break it into 2 different days.

Our new holiday paper collection is called City Sidewalks. So cute with the traditional bright red and green with some blue added in.

The compliments are by far my favorite in this idea book. They are 2 sticker sheets and silver and red GLITTER die cuts. You could use them on layouts or easily on holiday cards.

And for our washi tape lovers, we have a City Sidewalks Washi Pack. 3 rolls of washi tape, 5 yards each, 1/4 in. wide.


There is a workshop your way kit that includes all the above goodies in one package AND the cutting guide on my website you can download to make layouts AND cards. Find it HERE
There are a lot of new holiday themed stamp sets to choose from. These are a few of my favorites.

A Child is Born. Item # D1704

Jolly Holiday. Item # C1654. So cute for Christmas AND Birthdays

Perfect Presents. Item #D1697
Cut the tags using the Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge
