I still can’t believe it! CTMH had everything I love in one place. Other companies have ink I love or paper I love…but not both! And CTMH workshops are so wonderful. I have enough that I haven’t gotten to that can keep me busy for a little while. Guess I am going to have to get really creative after that. So glad y’all are continuing your KZfaq channels!!!

I’m so sorry. As a Stampin Up demo, I hope you and the other makers bring about some new ideas and scrapbooking back to Stampin Up. There are a number of us who scrapbook and have been desperately asking SU for more. We are hopeful that this helps us!

I am so sorry that this is happening. I will continue to watch you because I love the way you scrapbook. Hang in there and know that we are with you. Us scrapbookers stick together.

Scrapbooking is such a huge part of my life and I'm so glad we are friends and will continue crafting and sharing techniques together.

I can’t wait to see more projects! I am so encouraged by what you do. I’m sad too, that CTMH is closing. ❤you

Shocking news indeed. I am glad that you and other creators are continuing your journey and sharing your talent. We need you all!

Chelsea, so sorry we are going through this hard situation. But very happy to hear you will continue creating content! I love your style!

So glad you are continuing with the CDT.

I’m glad you’re going to continue to make videos. As a former Maker, I have loads of collections I never used. I bet you have some too. You could use those in your videos occasionally because some of us will have whatever you use.

I love your video thanks for your hard and beautiful work hope to see you soon

Chelsey, I love watching and learning from your creative process. I love ctmh too, I know I will miss it, and really hoping the community will continue. Hugs! 🥰

Sending hugs! Love your thoughts for moving forward...continue to share what you love.

Yay, so looking forward to seeing all your wonderful layouts Chelsey, moving forward. ❤️

Chelsey I love your creativity and your passion for this craft. Thankfully I am already a CDT member and will continue just so I can see my fav crafty ladies. Relieved that I can continue to watch your KZfaq channel! I feel your pain with the closing. I have been shopping with the company for 20 years. Thankfully for me I have a Ctmh supply to last my lifetime however looking forward to what everyone will share with new product.

So glad you will continue to post. Always love your videos, Chelsey.

Serious question: What is Close To My Heart and why is it's closure affecting so many online crafters? I had never heard of it until a bunch of KZfaq videos started filling my feed about it's closure. Is it some kind of franchise or something? I tried to Google and I asked the AI, but neither source could explain why the closure of one craft supplies company would impact the business of online crafters. Was it like Etsy or something? I'm not trying to be insensitive, I have honestly just never heard of it so I'm curious why so many KZfaq crafters are saying they are also quitting because of this one store's closure.

So thankful to have you as a creative friend, we'll get through this together HUGS!

Thanks Chelsey .I have always enjoyed your videos . Will continue to watch your creative journey . Take care ❤

Am very sad CTMH is closing, love their products and have used them for years. HAPPY to hear you are still going to create and inspire and will have your process videos. ❤

I am so happy to hear that you will continue sharing and posting your talent! I love what you do and it's fun to watch your daughter grow in your scrapbooks! ❤

Glad you will still be creating! I have been at this since 1979 with many different things- either ctmh since 2006

Thank you for sharing, looking forward to continuing watching. I have learn so much from your classes especially getting out of my comfort zone where mix media is concern. I appreciate you.

I am thrilled to hear you will still continue to make videos. CTMH is the reason I started crafting 20 years ago- this is very bitter sweet. I have no intention of stopping. I find so much inspiration from the CDT. Membership is closed, but I’ll keep trying. I’m sure there will be many emotions over the next few months.

Thinking of you. It's been a tough couple of weeks for our beloved CTMH papercrafting world. Best wishes to you and yours.

Chelsey, I know 15 years is a long time and I too have been that long with CTMH…well a customer before then too. The company is one of a kind and the quality of our products is amazing. I will be missing many things too but for most the community we build and were part of for so many years. I am so glad you will continue to make your videos and I will see you over at CDT. I know things will come. So many of us just wanna inspire, teach and share the passion we have for paper crafting. I will look forward to your videos and I know we will find a way to continue what we love. ❤ see you soon ❤

Chelsey I love you and are so glad you’re not going away. I haven’t done this for long a little over a year and was loving it, I’m going to miss the products but I’m sure we’ll all figure it out. Thanks for the message I’m so glad you’re still going to share with us, your channel is one of my favorites. I’ll stay in tune. See you soon!

so sorry to hear this and for you

So pleased to hear you are going to continue making videos as I love watching them. As much as I love CTMH for their quality inks, cardstock and beautiful matching collections I know there will be other products out there to find that I will enjoy using just as much. Scrapbooking is my main hobby and I love going to my crafty group each month. I'm sad for all the Makers and anyone working for the company. The decision to close down must have been a very tough one. Sending good wishes from New Zealand! Thanks for sharing 😊

Glad you’ve decided to stay on tube 🎉

After watching so many of the CDT statements on YT about this news, I can't help but notice how positive you all are as a team. And I am here for it! I am also so happy that you're reopening CDT membership, because leaving was a huge mistake. I have missed the technique videos so much! Excited to rejoin! :)

It is hard news, and for sure sad but scrapbooking is not going away with CTMH, CTMH was one of many companies that sell scrapbooking stuff. Memory-keeping, and scrapbooking is still going strong, and still completly doable. It just will look different with different companies. It looks different for the lives of those who sell this and of course that take time to understand and figure out. However all these videos that are very dramtic like scrapbooking has been wiped off the face of the earth are a bit over the top. It is always sad when a company goes out of business... I loved Felicity Jane and was sad when they went out of business, but it didn't stop me from many keeping. The commuity of people is what is at the core of what we are all doing, and should be the focus. Lets all come together even stronger for this hobby that we love so much. Everything is figure-out-able when it comes where everyone will land!!! There is so much talent and love for all those going through and processing. We are all going to be okay.

I am so sorry to hear this for you. Another adventure is waiting 😢❤

Love your channel.

Well said my friend ❤

So sorry for the loss of close to my heart. Please remember it’s the product you are losing but you are still a fabulous creator and have a great following. See your new creations soon.

I was so sad beyond words when I heard CTMH was closing there doors😩. I thought I finally found a company that has products that I love so much. I’m so glad to hear that you still be posting videos. I do look forward to watch all videos with CTMH products I get so much inspiration, and pleased that its not going away, yet!! Thanks for the video, I no it was hard!!

So sorry for the Makers and employees that rely on the company for their livelihood. On the crafty side, someone said it isn't the company, it's the company that is important.

I am so sad. I started with CTMH 26 years ago as consultant. I had to stop 8 years ago due to health but I have always loved this company for their quality products.I will still be here watching.

So happy you will still be creating. I am so sad for all of you losing your jobs.

I will still be watching!

Thank you for sharing your heart. I enjoy your KZfaq videos. I’m interested in the creative design team program open till March 24. I saw the link and I have a question. I noticed part of what is included is product for a cricut machine. I have a brother scan n cut. Is what is included SVG file that could be used or either machines or is it product that can only be used with a cricut? Thank you for answering.

So sad about the wonderful CTMH product line. But happy to hear that you and the CDT will continue sharing your creativity!

i'll still be watching!

Stamps of life is a great company, Simon says stamp, stampin up is ok.

I’ll still be watching! Do you host scrapbooking crops in your area?

I am sad for you. God bless you.

Horrible that they didn't sell it instead of closing it.

Anyone know the reasoning of CTMH shutting down after 40 yrs?

Isn't Stampin 'Up taking it over?
