It’s Management Monday! Here’s what’s happening this week and a bit beyond.
Today I have Open Day and I have one spot left this evening. Let me know if you would like it.
The Card Class invitation is out! Just a quick reminder that each session is a maximum of 4 crafters for right now and that a Tuesday evening session has been added recently. Let me know which session you will be attending!
Stamp of the Month will be coming out in a separate email later today! The featured Stamp of the Month is Poinsettia Petals and the projects are gorgeous.
Curvy Celebrations goes live tomorrow! Let me know if you would like to order the bundle!
It’s Sabbath Sunday! This is the day to rest and recharge for the week.
Did you know that you need to train your brain to rest as much as to work? It can take anywhere from 18 to 254 days for someone to create a new habit according to http://healthline.com. So where are you at in this process? I think I am someone that takes 254 days to create a habit. Things don’t come easy for me but once I get them they are stuck.
I say this because for a long time it was very difficult for me to take my eyes off of my business. I felt that if I rested I might miss something. It took quite a while for me to train my brain that it is okay to set office hours and stick to them so I could be off the clock. I needed to be able to turn it off for family as well as myself.
So how are you doing with training your brain to allow you to truly relax peacefully?

It’s Friendship Friday! This is the day to give back or pay it forward.
What does a friend need to do or not do to be considered a friend? Do they need to call, send a note, bring a gift, share a meal…?
Even in my own household friendship is so different.
For my daughter it’s someone that you actually reply to and don’t leave their message left unread. It’s someone that you can be goofy with, take pictures, and share a laugh. Now all this is done over texts and Snapchat now, but it’s still sharing life together.
For my husband it’s someone you are sarcastic with. It’s someone that gets your very dry sense of humor. It’s someone that has suffered through war and field exercises with you. It’s someone that doesn’t have to worry about how you are going to take something and you can be very real with.
For me it’s someone that I want to share life with. It’s someone I want to stay on the phone with. It’s someone that helps me solve problems. This is someone that makes me stronger, encourages me, and will just be present. For me this is not just one person but a few.
So what does your friend look like? Do you have several? Whoever comes to mind after reading this, call them. Send a note. Show them that they are important to you.
It’s Wacky Wednesday where a product is used in a way it is not intended! Today we are going to use a window sheet to mask the ink for a portion of the card.
This is an ombre card by stamping multiple times and not re-inking. Use a window sheet to cover where you don’t want to ink and then stamp right over. You can see where everything is positioned and the window sheet is thin enough that you don’t get much of a gap when stamping.
It’s Technique Tuesday! Today we are learning how to add some glitter to your ink without adding two layers.
Stamp your accent and then put it aside. Grab an extra clear block and dip in your chosen ink. Then drip just a little of the Wink of Stella on the block also. Stir as desired and use the brush of the Wink of Stella to paint the accent. When done rinse the block. If the Wink of Stella stains the block then use a magic eraser to get rid of the residue.

It’s Sabbath Sunday! This is the day to rest and recharge for the week.
Do you ever feel like you have been challenged to focus on yourself so much that you feel over saturated or full? Do you feel antsy to get back out there? I do sometimes. So I will tell you what I will tell myself…get out there and go for it!
We are much like a battery in the sense that we have to be careful to not stay plugged in after we reach 100%. There is balance in everything.
