It can be a card, layout or home decor item, that is up to you the only requirement is that it must feature at least one Close to My Heart product, outside of that let your imagination run wild.

Life's a Beach!

I don't know about you, but with this whole quarantine business, I would love to have my life at the beach!  However, that is not the case, for many of us!  So, instead, we are going to play with paper that helps us imagine that we are there, or get ready to scrap some photos from when we were there last!

Remember, you have until the end of the month to play along with all of the challenges!  I'm sure you could find a way to craft something that helps you think you are at the beach, right?

Let's take a look at some artwork that our design team has come up with, shall we?

{Brandi} has made this SUPER cute layout!  Look at all those fun colors!  I love the Seas the Day papers, don't you?

{Catherine} has made this fantastic page with the Cut above kit from Seas the Day.

{Melissa} made this SUPER adorable mini album page with the seas the day paper packet, too!

I know that you have some great inspiration here with these fun colors and pages!  We can't wait to see how you play along with this challenge!  You have until the end of the month to join this and all of our April challenges.

C.A.S.E.

Hello and welcome to Heart 2 Heart challenges for another great weekly challenge. This weeks challenge is C.A.S.E. which means Copy and Steal Everything! Now we paper crafters are not thieves so we wont be stealing anything from anyone because we all are just too nice(!), for that but we wont lie, we see a project we like and we tend to put our spin on it and make it our own and how could we not, there are so many talented artists out there to be inspired by. So this week....we will copy and put our spin on a project from the current Seasonal Expressions Idea Book. To view a copy of our idea book, please click on the following links: United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. The idea books are all the same but the pricing will be reflective of the currency and exchange rates in each market.

And now onto the design team projects!

Please keep in mind that while we are all inspired by the immense talent out in the world, we want to be sure we are giving credit to the artists where ever possible and while we may not know the exact artist in the CTMH Idea Books, please be sure to note that your inspiration comes from the talented artists at CTMH in your online posts for this challenge. 

To join us, please click on the inlinkz button below to add your project. This final February project is live until March 2nd so please join us soon to be entered for this one!

The Important Things

As we kick off 2019, Heart2Heart challenges would like for you to remember the Important Things- and then share them with us!  You do NOT have to use the recent Close To My Heart "Important Things" bundle, although you certainly could.  Some people pick a particular word to focus on this year as their important thing.  For others, it's family or home.  However you interpret it, you have the entire month of January to join us and show off your most important things.  (Just remember to use some CTMH product in your creation to join us.)  We are also welcoming our new design team members to the H2H family!  Please be sure to welcome them in the comments.

Pumpkin Spice

Welcome to our last October Heart 2 Heart challenge - Pumpkin Spice.

It seems like once October hits in the North America and much of our countries have leaves turning colors and falling off trees, and everyone gets super excited about pumpkin everything. We thought it would be fun to see how you interpret this challenge be it the color orange or pumpkins or something with some spice or anything else you can whip up. We can't wait to see what you come up with.

Lets take a look at what the design team came up with.
