It’s Sabbath Sunday! This is the day to rest so you can be recharged for the week.

Today I am resting by planning. I am planning out some meals, classes, events, dates with the hubby, and more. I am determined to not be running at the last minute unless it is an emergency. The more planning ahead I can do the better. Then I am not stressing about something getting here in time, what to do the night before, and hopefully no lost sleep.

As for you, here’s what I can do to help. I can help you to plan projects, show you where you can cut corners, and how best to take advantage of the promotions. So the next time you feel like the cartoon below contact me so I can help you do some planning.

Happy Crafting!

P.S. Happy New Year!!!

It’s Friendship Friday! This is the day to focus on giving back or paying it forward.

In this last week one of our beloved crafters has passed away. As her husband called for me to help give updates I realized that it is so important to pour life into people. As you pour into someone else you often are rewarded tenfold.

Jan was one to always be there. Always. If she was upright and healthy she was there. She supported by not only participating but by telling me when I messed up. The mess ups could be anything from how a class was organized down to putting beans in the salad. She wasn’t much of a hugger but she was always welcoming. And, if nothing else, she could connect with you and understand you like no one else.

For those of you that knew Jan, she passed away this last Wednesday. If you would like to pay your respects there is time on Monday from 2-3 pm to do just that at Weifels in Yucca Valley. She has requested instead of sending flowers to please donate to Palms ‘N’ Paws Animal Shelter in 29 Palms.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.

Happy Crafting!

It’s Tutorial Thursday! Today I want to share with you how to create a New Year’s Card using the Brilliant Rainbow Dies as well as a popper.

For the New Year’s Card here are the instructions:

• Take a sheet of Thick Basic White Card Stock and cut with Paper Trimmer to 4 ¼” X 11”. On the 11” side score at 5 ½”. This is your card base.
• Take a sheet of Ever Eden 12X12 Specialty Designer Series Paper and cut with Paper Trimmer to 4” X 5 ¼”. Attach with Stampin’ Seal to card base. This is your outer mat.
• Take a sheet of Gold Foil as well as Basic White Card Stock and cut to 3 ¾” X 5” each. The Gold Foil is then cut with the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine and the Brilliant Rainbow Dies. Tip: For extra texture emboss with a folder as well. On the video the Hive 3D Embossing Folder was used. The Gingham Embossing Folder was an option but not used. Sponge a coordinating ink to the white with the Blending Brush. Then glue all down.
• Take a piece of scratch Ever Eden Designer Series Paper and place an Adhesive Sheet to the back of it. Run through the Machine with the Word Wishes Dies. Peel and stick.

For the popper here are the instructions:

• Take a sheet of the Ever Eden 12X12 Specialty Designer Series Paper and cut with the Paper Trimmer to 8” X 8 ½”. On the 8 ½” side score at 2”, 4”, 6”, and 8”. On the 8” side score at 2” and 6”.
• Fold ends down and trim with Snips about one third of the way down. Tip: Make sure to leave a little bit of a flat edge at the top of the triangle.
• Take tabs and place Tear & Tape Adhesive on them and then attach to form the popper.
• Tie with ribbon of choice to secure ends.

It’s Wacky Wednesday where a product is used in a way it is not intended!

Today’s product of choice are the Butterflies & Flowers Layering Decorative Masks on page 65 of the new Mini Catalog. Some of you may know, but many of you may not be aware of all the different ways you can use a mask. Not only can you use it with Embossing Paste and the Palette Knives, but you can also use it with the Spritzer, Blending Brush, Sponge Dauber, and more. Basically whatever way you can apply ink to paper is how you can use the masks. I would not recommend using your ink pad directly on the masks as the plastic tends to cut the pad.

This specific project was done with the Blending Brushes and about five different colors of ink.

When you create with this idea please post your finished project on my page, https://facebook.com/StampingWithJoni.

Happy Crafting!

It’s Technique Tuesday! As the new year starts to approach I thought you might be getting organized a bit (or at least thinking about it). So today I want to share something that might be helpful. It’s not a technique but instead a guide for sizes for mats and also card bases.

Happy Crafting!

It’s Sabbath Sunday! This is the day to rest so you can be recharged for the week.

Do you know what a resting heart rate is? A resting heart rate is when you have not done anything yet and you count how many heartbeats you have in a minute. Most resting rates are from 60-100 beats per minute. Some are a little higher, some a little lower.

My point is this…even when you are not doing anything your heart is still beating. It’s a little slower but still staying in rhythm. So when you don’t feel like doing anything but resting, remember that still a little bit of motion is needed to live.

Do something out of your ordinary. Take a small walk. Stretch. Move just a bit. Your body will thank you for moving, but slowly.

Happy Crafting!

Joni 🙂
