I was thrilled to find out that I was in the Top 10 of Kylie’s International Highlights last week! Thanks so much to everyone who voted for me!!
This is the card that was voted into the Top 10. I made this with the Stampin’ Up’s Christmastime is Here Suite. It’s still available! There are links to the products at the bottom of this post.
Here’s my Magnolia Fun Fold card. For the hop we needed to make an encouragement card. What’s more encouraging than being loved. I feel blessed to be loved by God, my awesome husband, Steve, my kids, all my family and friends. I made this card for someone special so they can set it on their desk and always be reminded that they are loved!
Here’s a Facebook Live I did with directions showing how to make a different version of this Magnolia Fun Fold card.
Please enjoy checking out the beautiful cards from all the other Top 10 Winners!

It’s time for another Festive Friday Challenge! I love being a designer for Festive Friday and this week’s challenge #FF0045 is Day of the Dead (October 31st). And guess what? Your project doesn’t have to be about Halloween or the Day of the Dead – at all! #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 love to help you!
The Inspo List is 10 items you can choose from to create your project. Incorporate THREE of the items in your project and link up! I used black, bright colors and sparkle.

I love making these “Lever cards.” Here’s a link to my YouTube video showing how to make this lever card. Please subscribe to my channel and give me a thumbs up while you’re over there. I really appreciate it! I made this card recently on my Wednesdays at noon CST Facebook Live, “Crafting Fun with Stamping Mom.” Click on “Videos” to see the past Crafting Fun with Stamping Mom videos. Please join me at noon on Wednesdays or you can catch the replay later when it’s convenient for you.
You can attach any type of shape at the end of your lever. On the top card I used the Square Stitched Framelits and on the bottom card I used the Circle Stitched Framelits.
It’s fun being a designer at Use Your Stuff Challenge Blog. It is after all why we buy all these crafting supplies. To have fun using them to make beautiful creations for ourselves and for blessing others. The challenge this week is birds, bees or butterflies. You can enter your card, scrapbook page or 3-D item that has birds, bees or butterflies on it. Ready, go! I can’t wait to see what you create!
Marcelyn Churchill is my friend, Stamping Joy team member (Stamping Joy is my group of stampers from all over the USA), 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 makes lots of fun fold cards, but this is one of my favorite cards she’s ever made. It involved a whole lot of fussy cutting.
Lots of you loved this card I showed last week on Marcelyn Monday and asked for directions. I plan to get them posted this week.
Here’s another Bird Ballad Fun Fold card I made with the directions below.

Here’s my sweet Molly. She lays under the counter while I craft, helps run off the bunnies and snakes while I’m gardening. (I’ve never seen a snake at my current home of 27 years but I’ve always joked that Steve removes them because he’s afraid I would want to move if I saw one.) She and her sweet sister Maya, do pet therapy visits with me and love to go for car rides. Molly still likes walks, but shorter ones than in the past. Molly is ten and Maya is twelve. I totally get why everyone loves their pets so much! I’d love to see a picture of your pets.
This summer is flying by. I spend a lot of time biking with friends and my biking team, gardening, stamping, Bible study, and working on my Stamping Mom business. Next week my sister and I are flying to Utah for the Young Living Essential Oil conference. We also have our annual week at family Bible camp in Okoboji coming in August. I hope you’re having a blessed season whether it’s summer or winter where you are!
