I’m thrilled to be hopping with the Stampin’ Up! Trip Achievers again this month!
If you would like to hear about the adventure my husband, Steve, and I are taking in lieu of the 2022 Stampin’ Up Trip that was cancelled, please subscribe to my blog here, or You Tube channel here. We are renting a Winnebago Solis Camper Van and are driving from Iowa through Canada to Alaska. We plan to take videos of our adventures as we horseback ride near the set of Heartland, fish for salmon, take a Whale watching trip, a grizzly bear adventure and more.
This trip is earned by consistently working to grow and share creativity with others. It’s a reward that is earned by just the top demonstrators in the world, fewer than 1% of the total Stampin’ Up! demonstrators globally.
This is our Easter Sampler. My Stamping Mom’s Joy Team does a 3″ x 3″ square swap every couple of months. We pick a theme and colors. For this one, there were 11 of us participating. After we receive the swap squares, we typically add the outer layer to each of the squares on our own to further coordinate the Sampler. Here’s another version below.
The hardest part is deciding which squares to include and which ones to use to make beautiful cards. I had someone in mind for this adorable bunny and sweet little Easter girl, so I made Double Step cards with these.
When you have a 3″ x 3″ square, it’s easy to turn it into a Double Step Card. Here’s measurements and directions to make a St. Patrick’s Day Double Step card I made a couple years ago. Here’s a video showing how to make the St. Patrick’s Day card. I also have a video showing how to make a Double Step Christmas card.
I picked out this square to send to my parents for Easter, so I made another Double Step Card.
Making Samplers together is just one of the perks of being part of my Stamping Mom’s Joy Team. If you live in the USA and want to be part of a great group of kind women who meet online every week, you should email me at Beth@StampingMom.com and consider joining us! It’s way more fun than stamping alone!
The response to the Ukraine Relief Tutorial Bundle has been amazing! Steve and I have decided to match all the donations that will be made from the proceeds of selling this Tutorial Bundle on my site. So far I have sold over 50 Tutorial Bundles, so our match will be over $750. Can you help? Your $15 purchase turns into a $30 donation for Ukraine.
We’ve had a very successful Estate Stamping Sale with the proceeds going to Marcelyn’s family. Marcelyn is my dear friend and Stamping Mom’s Joy Team member who passed away a few weeks ago. This will be set up in my Dining Room until next Sunday, March 27th. If you’re interested and in the Des Moines area, I’ll be open on Thursday 11:15am for an hour and again Saturday, March 26th 9:30-11:30am. Marcelyn made every single card and item on the large table.
I’m going to do a Facebook Live on Saturday, March 26 at noon Central to sell the stamp sets, bundles, punches and dies. This is for US Residents only. Please subscribe to my Stamping Mom FB page to participate.
Please enjoy all the projects as you hop through all the blogs below of fellow Trip Achievers.
