Artbooking Made Easy (S01E01): Getting Started with Cricut Artbooking

Intro to Artbooking -- This is the first in a weekly series from Close to My Heart to give you tips and tricks for using your Artbooking cartridge. Stay tuned each week for more :-)

National Stamping Month: September 2013

You will notice that I used the alphabet and one of the sentiments from this set on my Artbooking Owl card in the previous post. Can't wait to create some other fun projects with this set. You can link to my personal business site to get your own by clicking on the link in the side bar. This is a really fun set.


Inspired By- - - Owls

Recently I bought a new lunch box for work and these cute, whimsical birds caught my eye. The store was wise enough (sorry I couldn't resist) to place the coordinating water bottle next to it. I didn't really need a new water bottle, but who could resist?

Okay, I'll try to refrain from anymore puns. Earlier in the summer I created this cute birthday card with the stamps from our Whoo's Your Valentine Kit that we offered earlier in the year and some of the Dream Pop papers from the May scrapbooking month special. 



When our new Artbooking Cricut Cartridge came out and had these cute owls on it I knew I wasn't done with them. I love the woodgrain looking overlay and the dimension it adds.



What or who is inspiring you today?
