It’s Friendship Friday! This is the day to focus on giving back or paying it forward.
I have probably said this before, but I am going to say it again…be smart with your money. Know what your money supports when you purchase from a company. Look at who they give to charitably.
For example, if you buy a Subaru then they donate a percentage to a charity of your choice from the given list. There is a sock company that every time you purchase a pair of socks they will donate a pair for a homeless person. I don’t know about you but I don’t go and get a Subaru every day so let’s be a little more practical. And let’s look at things you can do on a daily basis.
You can shop on Amazon Smile instead of Amazon. It’s the same as Amazon except 1% of your purchase goes to a charity of your choice. The list is long so make sure you have someone in mind so you can search. Personally my choice is to the RCC Marching Tigers Alumni Association. This helps the marching band at Riverside Community (City) College where Tara currently is.
If you contact Reach Out Morongo Basin they run a SCRIPS program. (I know a few of the churches and school programs do as well.) SCRIPS is a fundraising organization that helps a local group. For example, I can go down to Reach Out (when they are open after covid) and purchase scrip for Staters. The next time I buy groceries I use that card instead of paying cash much like I would use a gift card. A portion of that gift card goes back to Reach Out.
Please reach out to your chosen organization to find out what programs they participate in. There are so many ways nowadays to be philanthropic.

It’s Tutorial Thursday! I thought today instead of showing you just one project I would show you two. Since the new Annual Catalog begins in just less than two weeks I thought you might want to see the new In Colors. So let’s do just that and show you those new colors. 🙂
For today’s projects you will need:

It’s Wacky Wednesday where a product is used in a way it is not intended!
Do you miss the washi tape? Well, here’s a simple way to make something similar.
Take a piece of tissue paper (white used) and attach to the Adhesive Sheet. Then stamp design to create a small pattern. Cut with the Paper Trimmer to create strips that resemble washi tape. Layer as wanted.
Here is a video our CEO, Sara, did to show you how to create this tape using this technique. Please follow the link, https://fb.watch/4-o5R9Z7kA/, to view the video.

It’s Technique Tuesday! Today I want to talk to you about how to use a punch to create an entire background. So punch a bunch of shapes and glue to your card stock. It’s okay if a bunch hangs over the edges. Just trim off after with your snips. Afterwards check your snips to make sure they are not sticky.
If you want to see this in motion please tune in tomorrow evening at 7 pm on http://facebook.com/StampingWithJoni for my Live.

It’s Sabbath Sunday! This is the day to focus on resting so you can be recharged for the week.
I don’t know about you but I was able to get away for spring break. This is the first time in a bit and I am so grateful. My family and I were able to “escape” to the mountains, trees, and rivers for a few days near Sequoia National Park. We stayed just by the river and were a short drive to the park. There was lots of hiking and sore legs to be found on this trip. (I need to do more in the gym.) Instead of explaining more to you I figured I could leave you with some photos so you might be able to escape a bit also.
Happy Crafting!

It’s Friendship Friday! This is the day to focus on giving back or paying it forward.
I know I’ve talked about many ways to give back or pay it forward. Some have been personal and some have simply been lists to get you more ideas on what to do. Well today’s is a bit local.
Recently I found a group on facebook called “pay it forward Morongo Basin”. Here is the link for the group if you want to join, https://www.facebook.com/groups/557345691278803. This group is if you are in need as well as giving. I hope this finds you well and gives a glimpse of some local kindness.
Happy Crafting!

It’s Tutorial Thursday! Instead of a tutorial today I thought I would continue to give you tips on how to organize your crafty space.
The re-inker bottles are often hard to see the labels if stored in a shallow box or in the storage trays we have. So instead of pulling each and every bottle up to read the label halfway down, use one of the extra stickers from your ink pad to create a band around the lid.
Happy Crafting!
