Hello there, friends! We are so excited about a new blog post feature here on the SCT blog this year: New & Noteworthy! This post is designed to keep you ‘in the know’ of the newest products in the papercrafting world, or ones that may have been around for a while, but you may not know about! Our partners will be sharing these exciting products with us on Fridays, and each week you will have a chance to win the New & Noteworthy product! Let’s take a look at our first New & Noteworthy post for 2022 and welcome our friends from Close to My Heart to share their latest and greatest album kit!

Hi, friends! It’s Jill, from Close To My Heart, and today, I’m showing off a one-of-a-kind memory-keeping project for National Papercrafting Month! Our new True Story album makes it easier than ever to preserve your stories and photos.
The True Story project holds over 40 photos in individual Memory Protectors™ and Flip Flaps™. It even comes with pre-cut pieces and die-cuts making assembly a breeze. Embellish the book with coordinating stickers and clear acrylic pages for a truly unique look!
The best part of this True Story album is the interactive elements. Each page has fold-outs, pockets, or some other exciting detail that allows for creative photo and journaling spots. To get a full picture of this album’s potential, including all the opportunities for journaling and photo display in the finished product, check out this short video, which shows off each page of this one-of-a-kind album. Enjoy!
This album is a perfect color scheme for documenting almost any story. From birthdays to year-in-review, to trips or a simple gift album, any theme fits! As a special treat, we’ll be giving away a True Story Album kit to one lucky reader! Simply leave a comment on this post telling us about the photos you’ll preserve with the True Story album. Happy crafting, and happy National Papercrafting Month!
