I see Close to My Heart is closing and there is some possibility that SU may try and absorb some products or demos? The info was a little unclear. i have a lovely friend who has been a demo for CTMH for over 15 years and I know this is a blow to her.

My friend is a CTMH demo as well. She said that they are making a deal with SU. There are hints that they may take over some of the papers and add more scrapbooking into their line. There is also a hint that they are coming up with a program for the demos. I say hints bc rumour is kinda harsh lol She said she has also been contacted by a few local SU reps already to sign up under them if she wants to move over.

I don't know anything much about CTMH or SU but a video I saw on YT mentioned that some of the page protector/flip pockets might be taken over by SU.

It’s sad that another craft company is closing. Heartfelt Creations, and now CTMH. I don’t know how SU will absorb them, but at least not all of the craft products will disappear. HC isn’t selling their designs at all so far as I know. I wish they would after all if their warehouse sales are done. Their dies and stamps are lovely.

The end of an era.
One of my very best friends was a CTMH demo and before she passed away, we spent many happy hours with other gals, just seeing what was new that month and working on our projects.

HC isn’t selling their designs at all so far as I know. I wish they would after all if their warehouse sales are done. Their dies and stamps are lovely. Perhaps someone should suggest to the CTMH owner that she consider selling her current and past designs in a digital format at some point. She doesn’t have to come up with new ones. She has designed a ton of stamps over the years. Heartfelt Creations said they are taking my suggestion (to offer digital files) under consideration. It doesn’t mean they will do it, but at least they didn’t just ignore my email. I really hope they sell their past designs in a digital format eventually. If they sold them as print and cut through Silhouette, I would be super excited (and I would buy a ton of them)! I love Silhouette print and cut files. I would be thrilled to be able to buy CTMH stamp and other designs in digital format, too, including the papers, but since they never responded to my concerns when I wrote to them a few years ago, I will hope someone else makes the suggestion to them.
