Baby

Fable Friends

Some of you have asked about Marcelyn Monday. Marcelyn is staying home in her Senior Living Apartment and while probably a bit lonely, she is letting her light shine by making and sending tons of cards, doing her Bible study and reaching out to her friends and family. Recently, I spent some time talking to Marcelyn (from my car and 6 feet away) as I was dropping off more stamping supplies for her. She is in good spirits and doing well! We also chat on the phone often and Zoom weekly with our Stamping Joy Team.

My team of Joy Stampers has grown and my Stamping Mom business has gotten busier. Unfortunately, I don’t have time to photograph, edit and blog about all the cards Marcelyn makes, that would be a full time job trying to keep up with her. She is the most prolific card maker I know! 🙂 I’m going to encourage her to set up her own business Facebook page so you can see everything she’s making. Marcelyn does sell her cards as well, if you’re interested. 🙂

Going forward, I want to share my blog with all my team members, so you’ll see some cards from Marcelyn and get to know more of my other team members as well. 🙂

The idea for putting the Fable Friends bunny as the “A” and using the retired Stampin’ Up Large Letters was cased from somewhere, we don’t remember where, but Marcelyn put her own spin on it with the colors and ribbons etc. The cards are darling!

My church is offering an online session of Alpha that starts Tuesday, April 21 at 7pm Central time. Steve and I are hosting a group and I wanted to share the info with you in case anyone is interested in participating. Alpha is an opportunity to explore the Christian faith in a relaxed, non-threatening manner. Alpha is enjoyed as much by those who have never set foot in a church, as it is by the regular church-goer. Because we are doing this online, everyone in the world can participate in Hope’s Alpha course. Here’s the link to sign up. Tuesday Evenings (Online)
April 21 – June 16
7:00-8:30 pm Central time

I’ve been in Bible Study Fellowship (BSF) since 2002 and been a Group Discussion Leader starting in 2008. For the first time ever, BSF is offering a free two week study of the Book of James, open to anyone in the world. Here’s a link to get the notes, discussion questions and Podcast lectures. If you would like to do a Zoom call discussion group with me on Friday, April 24th and Friday, May 1 both at 6pm Central time, please email me at Beth@StampingMom.com

Blessings,

Beth

I do one-on-one crafting sessions, group card making classes and Ladies Night Out card making. Please send me an email and we’ll set something up.

What are you doing for Mother’s Day weekend? I’m blessed to have all my kids home this weekend except for Sean, who lives in Seattle. I’m sure he will be calling me, however. 🙂

Saturday morning Steve and I went on a bike ride with our Des Moines Cycle Club friends and had breakfast at the Redfield American Legion. RAGBRAI ( RAGBRAI is the annual bike ride across Iowa that Steve, his brothers and I always ride a couple days together) is going through Redfield this year and one of the gals asked us what they should make to sell to the bikers? Homemade pie is what many of the RAGBRAI riders want the most!

Speaking of homemade pie, I hosted my end of the year fellowship for my Bible Study Fellowship group at my house on Tuesday and Marlene made yummy homemade cherry pie, while Bailey made awesome homemade raspberry pie. Helen is originally from Australia and made a wonderful authentic Australian dessert. We sure were spoiled! Everyone brought lots of yummy food and I made chicken salad and iced tea. Mickell loved the Iced Tea! Every time I make Iced Tea someone wants to know my secret. Here it is, the Mr Coffee Iced Tea maker for less than $20. I use one family Luzianne tea bag and three tea bags of Ginger Peach Tea.

Here’s some pictures of my BSF group whom I love, the table beforehand and the prayer journals I made for each of them.

My dining room table is made for 12, so I added a little table on the end to squeeze in 16. It was such a blessing to have our entire group together for the last day! If you want to sign up for Acts next year or learn more about Bible Study Fellowship click here.

In the center are two of my live African Violets. I love growing African Violets, but have never thought before to put them on the table for a luncheon.

I printed the “Be Strong and Courageous Joshua 1:9” on the computer and the then made the covers and matched them to the Ink Joy gel pens. I love these pens. You can get them here.

I hope you had a fabulous Mother’s Day weekend! Please come back tomorrow for Marcelyn Monday.

Blessings,

Beth

January 2019 Paper Pumpkin Alternatives

I love getting the Paper Pumpkin each month! For only $20 per month, you can get a fun crafting surprise in your mailbox. If you buy a longer subscription you can save up to an additional $2 per month plus earn several free SAB items. I always buy a 12 month subscription during Sale-A-Bration. It’s the most economical way to get the Paper Pumpkin. This month the kit had supplies to make 24 valentine boxes. The great thing is if you don’t need 24 Valentine boxes, you can make other fun things. I love this Valentine card I made. I also changed the tag using stamps included in this kit, so I have boxes to give out all year long.

Do you need a baby card? I came up with this using the kit as well.

Thanks to everyone who signed up for Stampapalooza on Feb 23. We have already sold out! I still have two seats available in a class this Friday, february 1 at 6:30pm.

Blessings,

Beth 🙂
