It’s Technique Tuesday! Today’s blog post is more of a tip than a technique.
When you are die cutting and the die is pretty straight across turn it diagonally. If you can get that bar on the die to not hit the pressure roller in the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine straight across but at more of an angle, you will not get that infamous clunk as much. It will also not be as difficult to manage to roll through.
Happy Crafting!

It’s Sabbath Sunday! This is the day to rest so you can be recharged for the week.
I know many of you have kids that have gone back to school recently. And some of you are teachers that are getting back into the routine. I know it’s been tough on both the kids, parents, and teachers.
So I want to share this story with you. When I was a kid my Mom and I didn’t always see eye to eye. Sometimes things got rather tense. Thankfully we lived across the street from a school. The playground faced us and I could often be found there. But when things would get less than comfortable I had a certain place that I would go.
There were no bikes to ride or tractor tires to hide in. Instead I climbed on top of the monkey bars and then laid down to look up at the sky. The clouds entertained me until it started to get dark. I knew up there no one would come up on me and surprise me. No dogs would find me and possibly bite. I could simply let the world go and breathe.
When you are having a tough week where do you go to regroup?
Happy Crafting!

Joni 🙂

It’s Friendship Friday! This is the day to focus on giving back or paying it forward.
I am repeating last week’s request since it is coming up very soon.
I have a special request today from of our very own. Serina’s daughter has just left for the Air Force. And to top it off she is turning 18 in just under a month.
So if you would like to send her a birthday card with no glitter or perfume sprayed on it please contact me to get her address.
Thank you so much for reading this far and please mail her a birthday card.

It’s Technique Tuesday! Today I want to ask you a question about how you assemble a brand new stamp. Do you put your sticker on your stamp or do you put your stamp on your sticker? Are you confused? Is there a difference? Yes! Here’s a short video to explain…https://youtu.be/docgG0zHnz8.
So which way is your favorite?
Happy Crafting!
