Christmas

Whimsy & Wonder Blog Hop

You may be starting here or have come from someone else’s blog – either way there is a list at the end of this post to help you move around all the different blogs and get many amazing ideas. We all have our country listed – so if you are looking for a demonstrator in your country, these demonstrators would love to look after you with your Stampin’ Up!® shopping or if you would like to join our Stampin’ Up!® teams.

I made this Christmas card with Blushing Bride and Basic White CS, Mint Macaron ink, Rhinestones and products from the Whimsy & Wonder Suite in the Fall 2021 Stampin’ Up catalog.

I love making fun fold cards and this is a Single Step card. This is one of the projects I’ll be showing at our Whimsy & Wonder Stamp Camp this weekend. This would be an awesome Christmas card to send your friends and family this year!

Whimsy & Wonder Fun Fold

It’s time for another Festive Friday Challenge!  This week’s challenge #FF0091 is International Literacy Day which is September 8th.

The Inspo List is 10 items you can choose from to create your project. Incorporate THREE or more of the items in your project and link up! #festivefridaychallenge  I hope you’ll make a card, scrapbook page or 3-D item and join us. If you want help entering, please email me at Beth@StampingMom.com and I’d be happy to help you! From the Inspo List I used layers, fun fold, and patterned paper.  You entry doesn’t have to have anything to do with International Literacy Day.  I actually LOVE to read and raised a family of readers! Unfortunately, I don’t have any book type stamp sets right now, so my card is not about Literacy Day. What is your favorite book? I’d love to hear about it in the comments.

Did you know you can get the Whimsical Trees Bundle ($51.25 value) free when you sign up with the Ultimate Bundle and join my Joy Team? You’ll get a 20% discount on your products and there is no obligation to sell. You’ll also get all my monthly tutorial bundles free of charge. My Joy Team is filled with kind stampers from all over the USA. We meet via Zoom and make a fun fold or 3-D gift item together each week. It’s a great way to have more stamping friends and have something to look forward to each week. 🙂 Sign up here, or email me at Beth@StampingMom.com for more details.

For more inspiration, be sure to visit the rest of the  Festive Friday Challenge Design team.

Many people want to send thank you cards after Christmas and I have a special one for you today!

I’m participating in Kylie’s monthly International Blog Highlights contest and the top 10 vote winners get to participate in an International Blog Hop. Would you consider taking a moment and voting for my card? I’d really appreciate it!

How to do Voting?

Once you’ve touched the little clear heart it will turn to Red Color and that is the notification that you voted. You can vote for up to five, but it’s not required, you can also just vote for one. Thanks so much, I truly appreciate it!

You can see all the supplies I used and order from my online store at the bottom of this post. The trees are cut from the Whimsy & Wonder Designer Series Paper (DSP) using the Christmas Trees dies. The garland, ornaments and small stars are also cut from the Christmas Trees dies (part of the Whimsical Tree Bundle.) The larger Polished Pink stitched stars are cut from the Give it a Whirl dies. The background is the Soft Succulent Shimmer Vellum, super pretty in real life and not nearly as dark as it looks in the picture. I love making frames for cards using the first and third largest Stitched Rectangles. I have made many Whimsy & Wonder projects already and I truly love this Suite!

Do you like cucumbers? Me neither. Well…at least not until I started growing them in my garden. One of my favorite things to do each morning is to go out to my gardens and see what I can pick that day. Today I picked raspberries, cucumbers, lettuce and cherry tomatoes. I use a Norwex Fruit and Veggie cloth to wash the cucumbers and get the little prickly parts off. Then I use a Pampered Chef Crinkle Cutter to cut the cucumber that I’m going to eat that day. I store it in water in the refrigerator. The crinkle cutter gives it a nice texture and let me tell you, I love my home grown cucumbers and I bet you would too!

I planted only two cucumber plants earlier this summer and have harvested dozens of cucumbers. Every yellow flower on the plant turns into a cucumber.

Here’s the health benefits of eating cucumbers. I’m motivated to live healthfully for the rest of my life and eating cucumbers is one little step in the right direction.

Now, is there anyone who can convince me to start eating seafood?

Blessings,

Beth
