It’s Technique Tuesday! I posted this on the Team group as well, but I felt this was important enough to repeat for all.
It’s good to know the thicknesses or weight of our card stock when stamping, printing, and so much more. Here’s a chart for you to keep as a reference.
Happy Crafting!

It’s Sabbath Sunday! This is the day to focus on resting so you can be recharged for the week.
Have you ever made bread from scratch? I look at the process of making bread much like life.
We start pretty raw and are tested and mixed to make us who we are. Just remember after being mixed to rest a bit so we can rise to the challenge. Then after we rise expect to be punched down a bit. The process makes us beautiful and full of flavor much like a loaf of bread.
Now I am hungry for french toast. Anyone else?
Happy Crafting!

It’s Friendship Friday! This is the day to focus on giving back or paying it forward.
Today I want to talk to you about fostering a pet. Many shelters give you the option to adopt or to foster a pet. Fostering a pet that has had a difficult time getting adopted can be life changing for you and the pet.
Here are some of the benefits of having a pet:

It’s Wacky Wednesday where a product is used in a way it is not intended! Today I am going to show you how to use that stamped off image instead of just putting it on your scrap mat.
But first I should probably define what a stamped off image is. It’s when you ink a stamp and then stamp it. And before you clean it you then stamp it again. Sometimes you might huff on it to bring a little bit of life back to the ink. But it is stamped straight with no re-inking. There are times where I have even done this three times.
So for today’s project I stamped with the Tuxedo Black Memento Pad and then stamp again. The mat color is coordinated with the ink color in the middle as well as the embellishments.
When you try this technique please post your project to my page, https://facebook.com/StampingWithJoni.

It’s Technique Tuesday! Do you have someone that means a lot to you but you don’t know what to get them? Here’s an idea.
Take a tin, box, bag, or jar (some kind of container) and get our little 3X3 notecards. On the notecards write notes of what they mean to you for a week, month, or certain period of time. (Just try not to repeat.) This will help you to use up those little notecards and will make your special one feel loved and appreciated.
Happy Crafting!
With inky fingers,
Joni 🙂
