About Me

Janice Alvord

I've been a Close To My Heart Consultant fo rsixteen years now and have loved every minute of it. My up-line is Linda Taylor of Virginia who also happens to be my daughter's sister-in-law I have a wonderful supportive husband, Lloyd who keeps the candy flowing on our Scrappin Days and a great son Todd who everyone just loves. My CTMH business has been a way to meet so many new creative friends who share their ideas and the fun and joy of our craft. If there is anything I love more than Close To My Heart it would have to be Disney World and Mickey! We go there every chance we get, just ask and I'd love to show you all my Disney Scrapbooks.
