A friend of mine, Robin, sent me a picture of this adhesive holder and said I want to make this.  I agreed!  It was perfect to hold your adhesive on your desk and also small enough that you could carry it anywhere you were going to craft.   I would like to thank Sally Stampers for sharing this project on Pinterest.

This is the first part of the Facebook Live

I know the new Good Morning Magnolia stamp set is going to be very popular when the new Stampin' Up! annual catalog goes live on June 4th.  It is such a beautiful stamp set with coordinating dies, designer series paper, ribbon, embossing folder and so much more!  

I saw this card online, but it wasn't watermarked, so I don't know who created it.  Isn't it beautiful?  I love to color, so this card caught my eye right away.  I used the Petal Pink - light and dark and light Mossy Meadow blends.  

I tried to color the magnolias to match the designer series paper.  I have to say, they turned out better than I thought they would.  I just love the blends markers.  

To make this card you will need the following paper.  For a complete list of all the products I used, please see the end of this post.

Cardstock:

Whisper White Thick

• cut at 5 1/2" x 8 1/2"

Petal Pink

• cut at 4" x 5 1/4"

Whisper White

• cut at 2 1/4" x 3 1/4"
• cut at 4" x 5 1/4" for inside the card
• scraps for flowers

Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper

• cut at 2" x 5 1/2"

After I stamped the Thanks sentiment, I used the Stitched Shapes framelits to cut it out.  To give the Petal Pink cardstock texture, I embossed it with the Layered Leaves embossing folder.  I also used the new 5/8" Organdy Striped Ribbon to wrap around the cardstock. 

To adhere the sentiment I used Stampin Dimensionals to give it a little bit of lift off of the layer below it.  

Most of the products that I used on this card will not be available for purchase until June 4th when the 2019-2020 Stampin' Up! annual catalog goes live. 

I was in Michigan for a few days visiting my mom and family.  It was nice the day I got there and then it got cold and rained.  It never fails whenever I go up there the weather turns cold.  Grrrr

Here are some pictures that I took while up there.

My beautiful Mom!!!

My niece Karin, nephew Jason and his son Ryan, Mom and my sister Jean

My nephews Corey and Travis.  Yes I am short LOL

Part of my family.  My sisters, Jean and Jan with her husband Rudy, two of my nephews, Corey and Travis with their wives,  Tara and Ashley

Corey's boys, Jude and Robin and Travis's daughter Raigen. 

I was able to spend some time with my friend from elementary school.  We have been friends for 49 years!  OMG!  That's a long time!  We couldn't possibly be that old!

I will be showing you how to make a fun and easy adhesive holder for your desk.  I hope you can stop by tonight over on my Stampin Scrapper Facebook page. 

Thank you so much for stopping by today.  I hope you have a fantastic Monday and week!

Happy Stampin and 

Every Monday night at 7:00pm I have a Facebook Live on my Stampin Scrapper Facebook page.  Since Stampin' Up! was having a day of celebrating Lovely As A Tree, I thought I should celebrate it too!  But, how was I going to celebrate it? 

One way was to share with you on my blog post on Monday my favorite Lovely As A Tree and Rooted In Nature stamp sets.  Another way was creating a fun project to demonstrate on my Facebook Live.  

As my husband, Mr. Wonderful, and I were driving home on Sunday, I noticed how pretty the trees looked against the sky.  That got my creative juices flowing on how to take that look and make it into a card.  My next step was to search Pinterest for ideas on how to do a sky background and what time of day I wanted to do.  After looking at a lot of different cards, I knew I wanted to do a sunset.  

I really like how it turned out.  I also knew I wanted to use one of the stamp sets that I hadn't used in a very long time.  As I was looking through my stamp sets, I found the Calligraphy Essentials stamp set.  It had some cobwebs on it, (not really) so it was time to brush it off and use it.  I think the sentiment is perfect for this card.  What a better way to watch the sunset and thank God for your day.  

To make this card you will need the following paper.  For a complete list of all the products I used, please see the end of this post.

Cardstock:

Crushed Curry

• cut at 5 1/2" x 8 1/2"

Basic Black

• cut at 4 1/8" x 5 3/8"

Whisper White

• cut 2 at 4" x 5 1/4"

Here is the video showing you how to do the sponging on this card.

Now, you can create beautiful sunsets yourself!  What stamp set are you going to use on your project?

Thank you for stopping in today!  I hope you have a terrific day!  Tomorrow I am heading to Michigan to spend some time with my mom and the rest of my family.  I can't wait to see them.  It has been way too long!

I am so excited about my first Holiday Extravaganza Retreat on October 5^th, 2019 from 9:00am – 5:00pm at Holiday Inn in Fairborn, OH. 

Registration will begin on Tuesday, May 28, 2019 at 7:00am.  Space is limited, so don’t wait to register.  The registration on May 28^th is for my customers and Stampin’ Up! demonstrators in my full downline only. 

If you are wondering if you are one of my customers, ask yourself, have I placed an order in person or online in the past year with Joyce?  If the answer is yes, then you are a customer and can register May 28^th.  If the answer is no, hurry up and get an order place with me before May 28^th so you can register on the first day!  If you’d rather not do that, we’d still love for you to attend if there are still spots available after June 10^th.

To register, you MUST email or text me starting Tuesday, May 28^th at 7:00am.  You can text me at 937-546-0341 or email me at stampinscraper13@gmail.com   I will then email you back letting you know that you got one of the coveted spots.  Keep in mind that I am going to be working with my daycare, so I may not be able to respond right away, but you will be notified by the end of the day if you got in.  You will then need to send me a check for $30 in the mail right away (I need to have it by June 7th)  If I don’t receive your deposit by the June 7th, your spot will be forfeited and given to someone on the waiting list.

If all spots are not reserved by June 10th^st, we will then open registration to all others interested in attending, so feel free to share the news with your friends. 

I will start a waiting list after all the spots have been reserved.  Your spot on the list will be in order of who responded first.  If I have a cancellation the first person on the list will be contacted and will have 3 days to decide if they want to attend.  If I receive no response, then the next person on the list will be notified. 

Spread the word to your family and friends and email on Tuesday, May 28^th to get registered.  You snooze – you lose!

Happy Stampin and 

Today I am celebrating Lovely As A Tree!  Can you believe this stamp set first came out in the Stampin' Up! 2001 annual catalog.  It is hard to believe that a stamp set has been around for so long.  When I first started being a demonstrator for Stampin' Up! I ordered this stamp on my first order.  I loved it then and still do.  I am going to miss this stamp set.  

Here are a few of the cards I have made with the Lovely As A Tree stamp set.

I made this card when I was part of the Splitcoast Stampers Creative Crew

Lovely As A Tree Christmas

Merry Christmas Lovely As A Tree Card

Here is another Christmas card using the Lovely As A Tree stamp set.  

SCS Creative Crew December 2017 Project #4

Finally, a card that isn't a Christmas card.  LOL  

Lovely As A Tree With Woodgrain Embossing Folder

I promise I have made a lot of cards with this stamp set that weren't Christmas.   I used it a lot before I started my blog on different projects, but I don't have pictures of the projects.  

Since we are saying goodbye to Lovely As A Tree, which I love, we need to say hello to Rooted In Nature.  I know if I needed a tree for any of projects I would go to Lovely As A Tree, but now I go to Rooted in Nature.  One thing that I really like in this stamp set is that there is a variety of stamps in this set.  You have sentiments, leaves, trees, a wood stamp and you can also purchase coordinating dies.  Until June 3rd you can get it as a bundle and save 10%!    

Here are a few projects that I have made with the Rooted in Nature stamp set. 

Rooted In Nature Sympathy Card

Itty Bitty Greetings and Rooted In Nature

Rooted In Nature

One Sheet Wonder 

Both of the Lovely As A Tree and Rooted In Nature stamp sets are absolutely beautiful.  If you want Lovely As A Tree, you need to order it as soon as possible, as it while supplies last.  

I am having my first Holiday Extravaganza retreat!!!  I am so excited!  Check back tomorrow for all the details.  

Tonight I am going to be showcasing the Lovely As A Tree stamp set on my Facebook Live.  Here is a sneak peek of the card I will be demonstrating. 

Thank you for stopping in today!  Have a terrific Monday and a fabulous week!

For my blog post today I wanted to show you which bundles are carrying over to the new catalog (two peas in a pod).  However, in the new catalog they won't be together as a bundle, you will have to purchase the stamp set and coordinating dies or punch separately (soon, just friends).  I wanted to come up with a catchy title for my blog post and all that kept coming to me was two peas in a pod.  I have to say, I think it is kinda cute.

It's Friday!!! Yay!!! Do you have any fun plans for this weekend?  On Saturday morning  I am having my team meeting!  Yay!!!  We always such a good time.  Then in the afternoon I am going to the zoo with our family.  It will be a lot of fun!  I hope all of you have a fantastic weekend!  

Happy Stampin and 

I love doing my Facebook lives and am always looking for different ideas for projects to create during them.  The other day I saw a post on Facebook that was talking about different techniques using vellum.  I haven't really used vellum that much lately, so this would be perfect for my Facebook Live.   The first project I demonstrated was how to do the Stained Glass technique.  

This technique really does look like stained glass as you can see in the above picture.  The trick to making this card is, making sure when you do the embossing on the front with the Black Embossing Powder that you make sure it is totally set before working with it.  I have a tip in the video further down in this post on how to do this.

I stamped the images using the stamp set Falling Flowers, which is retiring at the end of the month.  The Stampin' Blends markers are perfect for coloring with this technique.  I colors I used were Bermuda Bay - dark, Daffodil Delight - dark, Flirty Flamingo - dark,  Highland Heather - dark, Night of Navy - light Old Olive - dark.  You could use so many different color combinations on this card.  

To make this card you will need the following paper.  For a complete list of all the products I used, please see the end of this post.

Cardstock

Highland Heather

• cut at 5 1/5" x 8 1/2" score at 4 1/4" 

Whisper White

• cut 2 at 4" x 5 1/4"

Vellum

• cut at 4" x 5 1/4"

Doesn't it look like stained glass?  I love this technique!

This is the second card I made using vellum.  I have no idea what this technique is called.  I have searched and searched looking for the name and I can't find it.  The most common name was Easy Embossed Vellum.  

To make this card you will need a stylus or something similar to it.  Stampin' Up! doesn't sell just the stylus anymore, but if you have the Stampin' Up! Score Tool  there is a stylus included with it. 

I used the Lovely Floral embossing folder for my image on the vellum and Lemon Zest stamp set for the sentiment.  Both of these products are on the retirement list.  So, if you want them, don't wait, everything is while supplies last.  

To make this card you will need the following paper.  For a complete list of all the products I used, please see the end of this post.

Incredible Like You with Bloom to Bloom

I love the layout on this card.  The card on the right I used the Needlepoint Nook designer series paper and the card on the right I used the Happiness Blooms designer series paper.  Both cards are stamped with the Bloom to Bloom and Incredible Like You stamp sets.  All of these products are retiring at the end of the month and available while supplies last. 

Masculine Thank You

If you are like me, masculine cards can sometimes be a challenge, especially thank you cards.  On this card I used the Tranquil Textures designer series paper, Thank You framelit and the self adhesive sheets.  All of these products are retiring at the end of the month. 

Calligraphy Essentials 

When the Rooted In Nature suite came out last year I was so excited.  I really love the Nature's Poem designer series paper, and the Calligraphy Essentials stamp set.  This stamp set also has a coordinating kit, Calligraphy Essentials Project kit.  All of these products are also retiring, but the Nature's Roots framelits ARE NOT retiring.  They will be in the new 2019-2020 Stampin' Up! annual catalog.

Love What You Do 

I am so excited the Love What You Do stamp set is going to be in the new annual catalog.  However, the Share What You Love designer series paper will be retiring at the end of the month.  

Tropical Chic Treat Cups

How cute are these Sweet Cups!  I am going to miss these cups, I used them a lot.  I used the Tropical Escape designer series paper, which is retiring, to decorate the cups.  I am happy to say all the other products will be carrying over to the new annual catalog. 

His Grace Easter Card

I had a class where we made Easter cards and this was one of my favorites from that class.  I used All My Love designer series paper and the His Grace stamp set to make this card.  Both of these projects are retiring at the end of the month, but all of the other products are going to be carried over to the new 2019-2020 Stampin' Up! annual catalog.

Sliding Pop Up Card

I made this card for my mom and she loved it!  I used the stamp set from the April Paper Pumpkin kit and the Gingham Gala designer series paper.  I think this might be the paper that I will miss the most on the retirement list.   

Coffee Cafe Tunnel Card

I have used the Coffee Cups at least once a month, sometimes more, since they came out.  This is one stamp set, Coffee Cafe, and framelits, Coffee Cups, that I will be keeping for a very long time.  The stamp set and framelits are perfect for making cards and gift card holders when you give away coffee gifts cards.  For texture on this card I used the Garden Trellis embossing folder and the Garden Impressions designer series paper, which are both retiring.  

Eastern Beauty and Swirly Bird

The sentiment on this card is from the Eastern Beauty stamp set and the scattered dots are from the Swirly Bird stamp set, which both of them are retiring.  The flower is from Pop of Petal stamp set and is being carried over to the new annual catalog.  The Swirly Scribbles thinlits are also retiring at the end of the month.

Dragonfly Dreams Eclipse Card

This was a fun card at my card class!  The Dragonfly Dreams stamp set with the coordinating Detailed Dragonfly thinlits are both retiring.  Also, retiring is the Large Letter Framelits.  I am sad about the Large Letter Framelits because I love them!  They are another product that I won't be getting rid of.  

Here are the colors that are also retiring this month.  The Lemon Lime Twist and Fresh Fig cardstock, however, are SOLD OUT.

I hope you enjoyed looking at my top ten favorites on the retiring list.  It is always fun to go back and look at different projects I have created. 

Don't forget to use the host code when you place an order.  When you do, you get a FREE gift from me, if you order is over $50.

Who is going to miss the Gingham Gala designers series paper?  I sure am!  I am happy to let you know that the Butterfly Gala stamp set and Duet Butterfly punch are going to be in the new Stampin' Up! 2019-2020 annual catalog.  I don't know about you, but I absolutely love punches.  When I see there is a stamp set that has a coordinating punch, I get so excited!

I designed this card for one of my card classes and it was a big hit.  You could use any color in the Gingham Gala designer series paper for a total different look.  For the butterflies on this card, I stamped them in Balmy Blue, Daffodil Delight and Highland Heather.  

There is one thing that I absolutely love about this stamp set.  The butterflies (small and large) are one stamp that fit perfectly with the punch.  You don't have to try and line up the two butterflies to fit perfectly with the punch.  Below is a picture of the stamp set and punch so you can see what I am talking about.

To make this card you will need the following paper.  For a complete list of all the products I used, please see the end of this post.

Cardstock:

Whisper White Thick

• cut at 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" score at 4 1/4"

Highland Heather

• cut at 2 1/2" x 5 1/2"

Lemon Lime Twist

• cut at 2 1/4" x 5 1/2"

Whisper White

• scraps to stamp 3 sets of butterflies

Butterfly Gala Designer Series Paper

• cut at 2" x 5 1/2"

I popped up the butterflies with Stampin Dimensionals and then put a single Rhinestone in the middle of each of the butterflies. 

It's Friday!!!  I have the day off today!  Wouldn't you know it, it is suppose to rain all day.  I am still going to have a great day!  Do you have any plans for today?

I hope you have a fabulous Friday and weekend!
