Look Within

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

Recently I was scrolling through posts on a Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator facebook group and saw one about demonstrators and natural disasters. I was not aware that there was a group that had already been formed for demonstrators to help other demonstrators that had been affected by a natural disaster. So, yes, I joined. I have yet to help but I am looking forward to it.

I say this because I would encourage you to ask your company if they have a philanthropic side, group, organization, etc. Sometimes the ones you give your time and effort to will also help those in need. It’s worth an ask.

Happy Crafting!

Using Sheets for Dimensionals

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

After using the Foam Adhesive Sheets make sure to keep the little scraps. They make great Dimensionals.

Check In with Your Friends

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

You’ve heard the term what goes around comes around, right? Well, I have had a few full circle moments this week.

I have been talking about checking in with those close to you for years. And I know many of you do this. But just this week I have had three close friends do so this for me.

No, nothing is wrong. In fact life is finally starting to even back out after the dog, the kid, covid mess…

But there were three of you that just this week said “I’m thinking about you” in your own way.

I was so touched. I am rarely on the receiving side of this and it felt so good. Now I know why I do what I do.

So, if you haven’t heard it enough, go check on those close to you. They just might need an encouraging nudge for the day.

Happy Crafting!

Unraveling is Sometimes a Good Thing

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

Did you know that most of our ribbons, cords, and twine are made of fabric or natural fibers? This means that you can pull them apart and they won’t completely disintegrate. Instead you will be left with something that resembles the whole thing but pulled apart.

So if you need a piece of silver thread pull apart the twine to get that one strand of silver out.

If you don’t want a bow then make a knot and frazzle the ends for a masculine card.

Don’t be afraid to pull things apart to see what they become.

Happy Crafting!

With inky fingers,
