Sparkle and glitter make the world go round.

I think the world would be pretty dull without a little bit of sparkle or glitter.  Do you know how to add this to any background?  Here’s how…https://www.splitcoaststampers.com/resources/tutorials/shavingcreamsparkle/.

Take a look and see.  If you give it a try please post a photo to the Facebook page.  If you would like to see this created in a class please comment.

Managing our Monday.

Did you ever notice with enough planning just about anything is possible?  At least this is what I am choosing to believe.  There are quite a few events coming up.  Are you ready? 🙂

This week I am off to OnStage so be looking for contests, blog posts, photos, and fun!

Next week is the Card Class.  RSVP is on Friday the 10th so please let me know that you are coming.

On the 25th we will have our Small Business Saturday Christmas Party from 10-4!  Save the date and I will get out the invitations as soon as I am able.

On the 28th we will be creating a paper potted orchid with coordinating card from either 10-1 or 6-9.  Invitations coming soon so save the date.

If you would like to order online please use host code NXXHCDUW through Tuesday at noon.  If you would prefer to order in person please contact me.

I am back in the craft room today cleaning from this weekend and getting swaps done.

Happy Crafting!

P.S.  Remember there are drop in times today from 11:30-1:30 or 6-8.

Sundays are for rest and a time change.

Do you feel a little more rested today?  You got an extra hour to sleep.  Well, please rest for me today.  Put those feet up.  I am back at the 29 Palms Senior Center for Reach Out Morongo Basin’s Craft Fair Day 2 until 3 pm.  If you didn’t get a bowl of the chili colorado and homemade tortillas you need to come back.  It was amazing and where I will be having lunch again.

I will have the same things for sale as yesterday but I will have a different raffle prize and more vouchers.  Even if you came yesterday you can still stop by today to have a chance to win and to pick up another voucher.

If you do make it into your craft studio, area, table, whatever please post photos of what you created on the Facebook page.

Happy Crafting!

Friendship Friday and its importance.

Do you ever wonder if you are making a difference?  Giving back is so important for your soul as well as the one receiving.  Last night I was invited to a Rotary Club meeting and I thought that these people get it.  Giving back to make impact.  I am not telling you to join a club, but I am telling you to be intentional in what you do.  Give back!  It will give you purpose and make life go from mere survival to being full.

Happy Crafting!

A bracket becomes a mustache.

You’ve probably heard me say this before, “look at products sideways and upside down if you have to”.  Sometimes you just don’t know what you have.

I recently purchased the large letter framelits and one of the brackets I am sure was also designed to be a mustache.

Make sure you are using everything to its fullest potential.

Learning to blend.

I figured since the Stampin’ Blends can be ordered tomorrow that I would give you a quick video on how to use them.

There are some cute samples and projects with this video so check them out.

Today is a day of rest. Aaaaggghh.

Fall is finally in the air in the desert.  Well at least in the mornings and evenings.  It’s still about 90 during the heat of the day.  So I’m sitting this morning and enjoying my cup of tea listening to the birds chirping in the desert willow tree.  Sounds peaceful, right?

Well, here’s the entertaining part.  My standard poodle, Shadow, is still very much a bird dog.  In between the chirps is a big bark and some unsuccessful jumps to get that bird.  He points and is ready to pounce if only he was about 18 feet taller.

As you rest today (hopefully) remember that life is about the peaceful moments but also the entertaining ones.  I’ve learned that while I rest I am reminded that my home is not normal (whatever that is).  So enjoy your normal and I’ll go embrace my hopping poodle.

Happy Crafting!

With inky fingers,

Joni 🙂
