November Bells & Whistles - Aquarium
I'm on time for this workshop! We love aquariums and visit with regularity.
I love putting a rainbow of colors on a page and this one worked really well. Don't you just love the school of angel fish?
The workshop is Saturday, December 1st, and will be the last workshop of 2017. Stay tuned for a complete list of 2018 events coming soon! This Bells & Whistle workshop is from 7PM until 9PM, at my house. There are 11 kits available. All supplies are included for the price of $10. This layout holds 7 photos, including one 7"X5", and 6 (marginally trimmed) 4"X6" pictures. You only see 5 wells in the picture above, but the layout includes a flip flap which allows you to add two additional horizontal photos.

Operation Smile
Every time you order, please consider rounding up to the next dollar, to support Operation Smile. Operation Smile, an international non-profit, organizes volunteers and resources to aid children with cleft lip or cleft palate, their parents, and their communities by performing life-saving surgeries and advocating for sustainable healthcare systems.
During the month of October, Close to My Heart is matching your donation - up to $10,000.
You can also support the cause by purchasing special tee shirts, in several different designs, for both men and women.
I'm a big believer in supporting a local cause that benefits people you know, but as far as good causes go, this is a great one. Just $240 in donations can change a child's life for the better. So how about donating your change the next time you order by clicking the round up button? It's small change to make a big change in someone's life.
During the month of October, Close to My Heart is matching your donation - up to $10,000.

Cats & Bats
Kits! I love kits. As a consultant, I spend a fair amount of my scrapbook time creating new original (or mostly original) layout designs for my fellow scrappers. But kits are the reason I fell in love with CTMH and they remain my favorite thing. It's just so easy! I did the Cats & Bats layouts this Labor Day and the card kit called Joyful Tidings. Let me tell you - the scrapbook pages are easy. If you are looking for something more detailed - try the card kits. They are fun but definitely take longer. Just depends on what you are up for.
My favorite layout of the Cats & Bats is this one. That panel on the right hand page, with the journal spot on top, picture in the middle and color at the bottom is just so cool!
