Easter

He is Risen!



I’m a designer for Use Your Stuff and this week’s challenge is to use Yarn, String or Twine on your project. I hope you come play along with us and share your creations! Twine was the perfect thing to attach the “hello” tag to my Snickers Box. Want to learn how to make a box for gifting full size Snickers or Milky Way candy bars? I have picture directions here on my blog from back in 2015 here or head over to my YouTube Channel

Marcelyn Churchill is my friend, Stamping Joy team member, fellow BSFer (Bible Study Fellowship) and prolific crafter.  She doesn’t have a blog, so I share some of her creations on most Mondays.


Marcelyn dropped off this gorgeous Easter card for my family and I. It’s so pretty in real life. I love that it has the cross and HOPE behind it. Here’s a quote from Billy Graham about hope and the cross,

“Easter always brings hope to all of us. For the Christian, the Cross tells us that God understands our suffering, for He took upon Himself at the Cross all of our sins and all of our failures and all of our sufferings. Our Lord, on that cross, asked the question, “Why?” “My God, my God, why hast Thou forsaken me?”  And he received his answer, he knew.  To redeem the world, to save you and me from our sins, to give us assurance that if we died we’re going to heaven. He was saying from the cross, I love you and I know the heartaches and the sorrows and the pain that you feel.

Easter points us beyond the tragedy of the Cross to the hope of the empty tomb. It tells us that there is hope for eternal life for Christ has conquered death. It also tells us that God has triumphed over evil and death and hell. This is our hope and it can be your hope as well.”

I love these adorable gingham Easter baskets.

These gingham Thinking of You are so pretty too! If you’re wondering how to make any of Marcelyn’s lovely projects, please email her directly at marcelynchurchill@msn.com

Did you hear I’m doing a Facebook Live every Wednesday at noon Central time? Hope you can join me. I’d love it if you would “talk to me” by commenting during the Live, so I can interact with you.  If you can’t make it at noon, I’ll post the video to my Stamping Mom Facebook page and my YouTube channel later. I’ve added more videos to my YouTube channel. See them here

Thanks for stopping by!

Blessings,

I love this fun fold. It’s just a regular card with the top half of the front cut away. Did you see the Tufted Embossing on the top half inside?

I’m a designer for Use Your Stuff Challenge Blog and this week’s challenge is Flora and Fauna. I was thinking it was Flora or Fauna, so please use your imagination and notice a bee in the beautiful flowers on my wedding card. 🙂

I hope you’ll make a card, 3-D item or scrapbook page with both flowers and a visible animal and enter our challenge this week. Please head over and enter your project at https://useyourstuff.blogspot.com/ I’d love to help you if you need help entering your project. Email me at Beth@StampingMom.com

Steve and I were in Davenport for his cousin’s funeral on Saturday. Kathy was only 60 and passed away suddenly. It reminds me to hug the ones I love and spend time each day with purpose doing what God is calling me to do!

With all the trips to Davenport in the last six months, Steve hasn’t been able to keep up with his Honey-Do list at home. Today he was determined to make up for it all in one day. Among other things, Steve surprised me and planted these beautiful Violas in our front planters. 🙂

This weekend my Stamping Joy team and I will be at OnStage in Minneapolis. I can’t wait for our fun, crafty weekend. We also get the new Stampin’ Up! Annual catalog that won’t be available to customers until June 1, 2019.

I will be doing a Facebook Live again this Wednesday at noon CST. Here’s what I made the last two weeks during my Facebook Lives. Both tutorials are now on my Stamping Mom You Tube channel if you want directions.

Stampin Up His Grace Easter cards made by Marcelyn Churchill.


Marcelyn dropped by the other day to bring me a few of the cards she’s made lately. She said, “I only brought 28 of them.” Of course I was thinking what happened to the other 117 you left behind? When I say Marcelyn is a prolific card maker, I’m not kidding! 🙂

His Grace is a beautiful stamp set on page 30 of the 2019 Occasions Catalog. Marcelyn used that stamp set to make these awesome cards.

The inside of these cards is gorgeous as well!

Marcelyn colored these cards with Stampin’ Blends. They are so pretty. I know you’re all going to want to directions to make these cards, so please contact Marcelyn directly at marcelynchurchill@msn.com

Did you hear I’m doing a Facebook Live on Wednesday, April 3 at noon Central time showing how to make the Peekaboo Bunny Box? Hope you can join me. I’d love it if you would “talk to me” by commenting during the Live, so I can interact with you. 🙂 If you can’t make it at noon, I’ll post the video to my Stamping Mom Facebook page and my YouTube channel later on Wednesday.

It was fun having my sister, Janet, and her husband, Mark, here this weekend. We made them our specialty favorite foods- Ziti and Guacamole.

Steve did a top secret bunny mission today. For as much as I enjoy making bunny boxes, I don’t enjoy bunnies in my backyard eating the bounty from my gardens. Last year there was an entire nest of baby bunnies in my herb garden. Steve’s mission today was to find and block all the ways a bunny or bunnies, as the case may be, could enter our backyard. As the summer progresses I’ll let you know if today’s mission was a success. Either way Steve earned several spousal credits just for the valiant effort!

Blessings,

Beth 🙂
