So Long Blogger-I Have A New Website!

As you may have noticed I haven't posted here on the blog in several weeks. It's because I've been busy working on my new website!  While Blogger was a huge part of my life for many years, it's time to move on to bigger & better things!  

My new website is kathycorsonpapercrafts.com.  The new site has everything in one place including a blog, a link to my Close To My Heart shopping site, a calendar of events & more.  It's still under construction so I appreciate your patience as I make the transition & learn how to use the new site.  Going forward all artwork, specials, workshops etc. will be posted on my new website.  

In the meantime, be sure to check it out & let me know what you think.

Into The Wild Scrapbook Workshop

If you have a new baby boy or a boy who loves outdoor adventures, hiking, camping, frogs, bugs or wildlife, then you need this Into The Wild Scrapbook Workshop Kit!  The little animals are so adorable and the Wood Shapes add a nice rustic touch to the pages.

I've created 5 two-page layouts using this kit.  That's 10 pages with room for lots of photos.  I've even added Flip Flaps to a couple of the layouts, giving you even more space to add photos.

Customers who purchase the Into The Wild Workshop Your Way Kit (or place a $25 order on my website) will receive my Instruction/Cutting Guide for FREE!

The World Is Yours Outdoor Adventure Album

Have you seen the latest collection from Close To My Heart?  It's called The World Is Yours & it's only available during May for Nat'l Scrapbook Month.  If you haven't snagged your discounted bundle yet, you may want to hop over to my website soon since this collection has been extremely popular.

I've created a bunch of layouts (enough for an entire album) using this collection.  I have the perfect photos for these pages and can't wait to print them and add them to my pages.   Last year we went on a little adventure to Lake George, NY for our anniversary.  We went hiking, went on a cruise around the lake, did some shopping & even went rail biking.  It was quite the adventure & I think these pages will be perfect for our outdoor adventure photos.

The World Is Yours items are available individually, but the best deal is the bundle which contains the paper pack, cardstock, sticker sheet and the stamp set.  The bundle is just $38.95.

You can shop the entire collection ON MY WEBSITE.  If you purchase the collection and would like to create these pages, I will have a cutting guide available to you for FREE w/ your purchase of the bundle.  

May Hostesses who reach the third level of Hostess Rewards receive The World is Yours Cut Above Layout Kit FREE!  The layouts are designed for you and all pieces are pre-cut making them quick and easy to assemble.  They make a great addition to the other layouts I've created, thus expanding your adventure album.

Also available in May is the cutest Stamp of the Month-To My Bestie!  This set is just $5 with a $50 purchase.  

Sweet Girl Scrapbook Workshop Guide Available NOW

Today I'd like to introduce you to the adorable Sweet Girl collection.  The soft colors are perfect for Spring and the little wooden animals are simply the cutest embellishments.  My goal was to create a variety of Spring pages to include everyday life, Mother's Day & Easter.  While I don't have any little girl photos to scrapbook, I think these Spring pages turned out pretty darn cute.

I have created a workshop cutting guide and instructions so you can create these pages too.  Customers who purchase the Sweet Girl Kit (or $25 in products of their choice) will receive my workshop cutting guide for FREE!
