About Me

Amy Gehring

I have been a Close to My Heart Independent Consultant since October 2008. I love paper crafting and sharing my hobby with other paper crafting enthusiasts! I offer workshops and classes for making scrapbook layouts, cards and home decor items. If you are interested in hosting a home gathering or a workshop, I would be happy to come and show your guests all Close to My Heart has to offer. Check out and like my Facebook page for current specials, workshops, kits and artwork that I have been creating. Please like my page! If you need custom cards, banners, party favors, etc., for your special event, I would be happy to put something together for you to help celebrate.
