| Hi
Laurie, I've spent about 45 minutes looking at your scrapbook ideas. They are great! I miss you and my Bishop friends. You have inspired me so much in doing my son's scrapbooks. I did at least 25 two page layouts for each of my six sons and gave them the scrapbooks for their birthdays, last year. I'm still adding to Don's which has 28. I've started working on one for myself, one for my husband and one for each of our mothers with photos from the last two years. Thank you for being such an inspiration to me |

the time to do them all. Keep up the good work. Thanks so much, Phyllis P.S. YOUR LAYOUTS KEEP HER "CLOSE TO MY HEART" |
| From Barbara |
| Hi Laurie! I found your website while doing a search on Close to My Heart. This note is just to tell you how much I love your site and especially, your work!!!! It is just incredible....the best I've seen so far on the web. I've just started making greeting cards. I took out some of my old Close To My Heart stamps and dusted them off. I do have a local (New Jersey) consultant. What size cards do you make? I like using the 4 1/2 x 5 1/2 - which I guess you'd call medium. Your ideas are AWESOME. Thanks for your inspiration. |
| From Roberta |
| Love your website. I do stamping, even if I send a purchased card I put some kind of stamping on it. I love looking in your web site. I have it in my favorites on my computer. So much fun to look at the new stamping things of the season. Love the music and you have the best web page for stamping that I have seen so far. Keep up your great work. |
| From Brenda |
| Hello,
I am so enchanted with your website. I have NEVER seen another site
with the warmth, professionalism and care that yours shows to all
that enter. I am so in love with all of your cards. I couldn't stop
looking at all of your card samples over and over. I have bookmarked
your site and cannot wait to show it to my friends. I was so happy
to see that you live in California. I live right above Santa Barbara
at Vandenberg Air Force Base. I work at Walmart and I am so unhappy
with the circumstances at my job. You have given me so many wonderful
ideas and make me want to just stamp for a living. I know what you
might be thinking. Maybe I would like to become a demonstrator and
have my own little business? Absolutely. Thank you for a BEAUTIFUL
website to look at. It brought so much joy and comfort to my very
hectic day. You are very talented and I hope through seeing you designs
I can someday become as talented. Many blessings to you, |
| From Sally Lynn |
| Hi! I just wanted to say that you are SO TALENTED!!! Every card I see on your website is absolutely breathtaking. They show off our products so well. I can see why you are a top seller. I've been a consultant for almost a year and I find your work very inspiring. Hope to meet you at convention. |
| From Laureen |
| I'm sure you receive many emails like this one, but I just had to let you know how much I truly enjoy your website. I just happened upon it one day while surfing. I've been a demonstrator for nearly 2 years - more of a "hobbyist" at this time until my kids are older...... - and you always have wonderful ideas and beautiful artwork. I've seen in Key Notes that you are usually in the top sales, and I can see why :0) Thank-you for sharing your wonderful inspirations. |
| From Sharon |
| I really enjoyed your website ... I'll be sharing this with a few of my friends who are also (addicted) stampers! Thanks! |
| From Joanie |
| Hi Laurie: I was surfing various consultant sites and always have to stop and look at yours. You are always such an inspiration! You have the most lovely site that I have ever seen! |
| From Cathy |
| I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed your website. Last month's stamp of the month was great.

| From Susan |
| I have been doing quite a bit of research and your website is definitely the best. |
| From Tammy |
| My name is Tammy and I am very impressed with your web sight and I plan to order one of your catalogues from you soon. I really enjoyed the music on the sight. I am a rubber stamper and love to do it but seem to be so busy I don't do it as often as I would like to. Anyway I just want you to know I think you have a GREAT Web Page. God Bless, Tammy |
| From Paula |
| Your site is fantastic, beautiful, full of good ideas and products. I only wish I could order from the UK. I have searched the web endlessly and can not find any rubber stamping suppliers over here. My parents are coming to the USA next year so I will be sending them with a shopping list! The time and effort given to your site is incredible. It was a real pleasure to view it and I will be adding it to my 'favorites' just so that I can look again. Thank you very much. |
| From Kerrie in Australia |
| I have just spent a pleasant hour looking through your lovely web site. It is a pity Close To My Heart does not operate "Down Under". Maybe one day! Is it possible for us Aussies to purchase the catalogue or products by ordering through you? All the best for your future business. |
| From Karen |
| 'Tis always such a pleasure to come visit your site. What an incredible and beautiful site, you never cease to amaze me!! |
| From Jenny |
| I've just started stampimg last week and I'm having the time of my life. It is one of the best hobbies to be involved in. I was looking for supplies, and came upon your website. You have so many beautiful things to choose from I don't know where to begin. I want to order your catalog. Here in the island stamping products are not easy to find. Thank You for having this website, and making all these wonderful products available to us. |
| From Chris |
| I just wanted to tell you that I am also a Close To My Heart consultant and I visit your website often because I am so inspired by it. In reviewing your upcoming classes, I almost want to sign up for one. Your artwork is great and I had to stamplift some of the samples from the Dec Stamp of the Month. You have put a lot of thought and work into this website and it shows. Congrats on your success. |

| From Beth |
| Hi Laurie, I just wanted to tell you how much I love the May Kit n' Caboodle. I received it today and I can't wait to sit down tonight and make some cards. I also loved the pictures with ideas. They are so cute. I can't wait to get the June brochure. I will probably sign up to get it every month. |
| From Angie |
| I
just wanted to let you know that this was a great newsletter! Since
I do not get to attend demonstrations - I really loved all of the
color, word, and card ideas. Thanks so much. |
| From Jeannie |
| I
just wanted to tell you how wonderful your Close To My Heart website
is! I have spent the last couple of hours reading and enjoying it.
I am so looking forward to beginning my Close To My Heart career!
After seeing the Close To My Heart catalog, I was totally sold on
the company and products. Such a wealth of items for stampers and
scrappers! Plus the opportunity for creative expression is boundless!
You can tell how excited I am to be starting. I was sooo impressed with your website... I wondered if you designed it yourself, and if so, did you have formal training in web design? Where did you get all your ideas? It is o creative , informative and really beautifully done! Anyone visiting can tell you love your Close To My Heart career. Best wishes in your business, and maybe someday we'll meet at the big Close To My Heart convention! |

I'm hoping that the scrapbooking section is worth it. I will be interested in hosting a catalog party once I see it. Thanks! |
| From Jan |
| I loved your web site. You have the most creative and colorful as well as soothing to the eye that I have seen. Could you please e-mail me with the CD's or tapes you use for your background music on your website. I absolutely love the music as well. Thank you in advance. |
| From Sandy |
| I love your website! It's beautifully done and very informative. The music background is to my ears what potpourri in a charming gift shop is to my nose - and it makes me want to linger there. I found out about your site in the April 2001 issue of Stamping Arts and Crafts. I'll spread the word... and I'll be back! |
| From Marsha |

| From Monica |
| I love your website Laurie!! I recently started scrapbooking, stamping, and embossing....you're right, it is addictive!! I'm interested in possibly being a consultant but since I live near Pittsburgh,PA.....I don't know how that would work. I'm a child/family therapist full-time and newly married so this venture would only be a part-time job for me. I just enjoy it so much and I think it's so much more fun when its done in a group setting/crop party!! I'd appreciate any feedback you'd have and I would like to give my business to a person like you!! |
| From Nancy |
| I love your scrapbook paper! It fits so perfectly! It's just the best. |
