Become A Rockstar Paper Crafter With Me

Let me show you how!

Do you remember your first scrapbook?  My name is Tracy and I’m excited to welcome you to my circle of crafty friends.  I was the kid who collected stickers, crayons and markers.  Thankfully I graduated to scrapbook photo albums as a young Navy wife.  I survived my first deployment making layouts with my favorite pictures and journaling about our many adventures.  That was over 25 years ago and I have been an avid paper crafter ever since.

As time went by my scrapbooks grew to include loads of travel photos, dozens of Disney vacations, four beloved godchildren, my adorable fur babies, holidays and so much more.  I found myself telling stories with pictures, embellishments and memorabilia.  I went to crops, made new friends and tried new things.

Stamping gave me so many creative options.  Especially when I found Cricut cartridges and die cuts that cut perfect outlines of my stamped images.  I made gift tags and treat boxes.  I decorated journals.  Then I found the thing that really lights me up; I started making cards for my godchildren.

There’s something about a handmade card.  It’s like a hug or smile gets slipped into the envelope.

Bewitched Crafts was born in 2011 shortly after my divorce.  Growing up, my parents had owned their own business and I loved the freedom they had to design it on their own terms.  Starting out as a Close To My Heart consultant gave me something to build that was all my own.  I have the satisfaction of standing on my own two feet as well as the joy of indulging my creative side.

Starting my company also put me in a position to help others.  Close To My Heart’s motto is “Let me show you how!”  With over 25 years of experience, I am delighted to demonstrate products and offer the tips and techniques that will bring out the rock star paper crafter in you!He
