A cushion to rest.

It’s Sabbath Sunday!  It’s my day to rest.  When I googled rest and clicked on images a keyboard pad came up.  It was a rest for your wrist when typing so the angle of your hands changes.  This reminds me that every once in a while I need to change how I do things to see them differently.  Don’t worry.  Nothing is changing, at least until January.

Every December I analyze what has worked and what has not for the year.  If any changes are to be made they will happen in January.  A survey will go out in December to ask you for feedback as I figure out what needs to be re-designed, added, or cancelled.

Just thought you’d want a heads up of what is to come.

Happy Crafting!

Sorting through junk mail.

It’s Friendship Friday!  This is the day to focus on giving back or paying it forward.  Just yesterday I gave a presentation on the power of thank you notes.  One of the illustrations I used was a box full of junk mail.  This box was full of ads, political brochures, and a local newspaper.  There was one handmade card in the bottom in between all of the circulars.  You should have seen the look on the kid’s face when they found the card.

As she sorted through the box…junk, junk, junk, junk, junk, ENVELOPE, junk, junk.  (You get the idea.)  When she got to that card her whole face lit up.  She was special.   Someone had thought of her.  It was more than a coupon for a taco.  For me it was a great reminder of what joy a card can bring.

This is a nudge that what we do is important no matter how small.  So send that card to bring a smile and a reminder to that recipient that they are special.

When you become joy.

It’s Wacky Wednesday where a product is used in a way it is not intended!  Today we are making you become joy.  As most of you know the social aspect or people are what keep me going.  So it easy for me to say that you are my joy.  Today, however, it is literally true.  We are taking the Celebrate You thinlits (aptly named) and creating with the “you”.  When the tail end of the “u” is snipped off it becomes joy when flipped over.

Join me tonight at 7 pm at Facebook Live Link (www.facebook.com/StampingWithJoni) as I create a complete card from this.

Happy Crafting!

Creating something lifelike.

It’s Technique Tuesday!  If you want to create something that has light coming from it, like a sun or moon, I would encourage you to start with a white piece of card stock.  The white undertone will give you that shine that you are looking for.  Then take a sponge or sponge dauber and color.  The swirls of the ink will give the light source a more natural glow.
