Close To My Heart does a great job with offering a variety of How - To programs! I love the versatility for having so many creative choices. Typically, I use Level 2 packs which are a combination of background & textured papers and coordinating cardstocks, but for an upcoming workshop, I used a level 1 kit and was delighted with the results! The level 1 kits have the basics of a layout already completed for you. You can then make it your own by adding additional papers, embellishments, journaling and your photographs. They make creating so easy! For my layout, I added vellum as in-between photo mats which worked great with downplaying the colors a little. It also worked great to compliment the waters in the photographs. Not sure how I got so lucky that my title was all able to come from one set of the My Stickease letters, but it must have just been "to be". I also used clear craft buttons and waxy flax to add that finishing touch.
