Hey everyone, Connie Nichol here today playing with Close To My Heart!

I have to admit, although I’m not very good at the pocket page style of scrapbooking like Picture My Life or Project Life, I totally LOVE the 3 x 4 and 4 x 6 cards that are part of this scrapbooking concept.    The cards make wonderful embellishments for regular styles of scrapbook pages and one can use them to make all sorts of greeting cards in a snap.  Today I want to feature some simple cards and a layout that I created using the Hopscotch Collection from Close to My Heart.  All of the projects feature the Picture My Life cards.  I think that this collection was recently retired, but you could use these ideas to make cards and layouts from any one of the Picture My Life card packs.  Simply layer them on top of each other, dress them up with a little ink, ribbon, sewing or patterned paper and you will have a quick collection of beautiful greeting cards.  The beauty of working with one line from Close to my Heart is that everything matches!

All supplies by Close to My Heart:  patterned paper, cardstock, Picture my Life cards, twine, stickers, metal badges, washi tape, circle punch

Have a wonderful Tuesday
