Marcelyn Monday and Painted Glass

Marcelyn Churchill is my friend, stamping 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. She had shoulder surgery on May 23 so took a break, but she is back to almost 100% and stamping like crazy!

These are two of the cards Marcelyn designed for our recent Stampapalooza Stamp Camp. We had a wonderful time with everyone who came and stamped with us for the day. I hope you can join us for our next Stampapalooza on Saturday, September 29. Please mark your calendar and plan to attend!

Love these cute little 3×3 cards.

Marcelyn used the Graceful Glass 6×6 Vellum on these beautiful cards.

Please email Marcelyn at marcelynchurchill@msn.com to welcome her back and tell her which card is your favorite.

I told you Steve crashed on his bike during a triathlon one week ago and got nine stitches in his arm, broke his finger and the cement removed the skin from his shoulders, hands, etc. He rode RAGBRAI (Register’s Annual Great Bike Ride Across Iowa) five days later. Well on Saturday, exactly one week after his crash, he ran the Bix 7 road race in Davenport, Iowa. He did it in 55 minutes, his personal best time ever, in the 15 years he’s run it. I always used to refer to him as Superman on my blog. He’s humble and asked me to stop calling him that. I have a hard time not calling him Superman. He is an awesome husband and father, works very hard at his job, and pushes himself physically like Superman. Congrats on your PR (personal record) Steve!

Blessings,

Beth 🙂

Stampin Up Baby Bear

Baby Bear

Stampin’ Up announced it’s Color Revamp last weekend at OnStage. My favorite part of the revamp is the return of former In-Color, Costal Cabana. Costal Cabana is a lighter version of my beloved Bermuda Bay!

I’m a designer and hosting the challenge this week at Use Your Stuff Challenge Blog. We purchase crafting supplies to make beautiful cards, scrapbooks and gifts, not to just collect the crafting supplies. Use Your Stuff was created to inspire us to use what we already have. The Coastal Cabana ink and cardstock have been in my stash since 2013. I pulled it out today for this week’s challenge of, “Babies.” Please head over to Use Your Stuff and enter the challenge.

Here’s the original Baby card I made with the Eclipse technique a few weeks ago.

On my latest version, I used the fancier banner from Bunch of Banners Framelits. I also added the little heart from the Enamel Shapes- Brights. These are retiring, so get them while you still can.

Here’s the Iowa Hawkeye Bear card I made for Abby last fall.

This was a Chicago Cubs Baby gift for one of my favorite Cubs fans! Notice he got a Real Red Enamel Shape for his heart. I’m so glad Baby Bear made it into the new catalog. Do you have any ideas for what kind of Bear I should make next? Please leave me a comment with your suggestion.

I’m having a Bird Banter class this Thursday, April 19 at 6pm at my house.

Cost is $20 to make 8 cards ( 2 each of these 4) with matching envelopes. Bring your own adhesive.

These cards are darling up close, and you can use any sentiments you’d like.

For a better deal, purchase my Craft Box which contains basic crafting supplies you’ll need for my classes for $50 and get the Bird Banter class for free! You also get to make 16 cards instead of 8.( a $93 value for $50) I’ve sold all my Craft Boxes for Thursday night except for 2. The first two people to contact me get to buy the Craft Boxes and receive the double free class! Email me at Beth@StampingMom.com

If you’ve never stamped with me before, you’ll also get to choose 3 cards with envelopes from my card rack. If you invite a friend who’s never stamped with me, you’ll each get to choose 3 cards with envelopes.

I’ve been busy organizing my Stamping Studio to accommodate the retiring product and new product arriving soon. I’ve also started planning Keegan’s grad party. We became parents 27 years ago and will become empty nesters starting in August. This fall we’ll have three college kids and one college graduate.
