Welcome back for another Mystery Monday Stampin’! I hope you are ready for a fun creative challenge! One of the wonderful things I love about mystery stamping is you use what you have! Are you ready to choose your creative adventure and solve this week’s mystery? Grab your supplies, follow the clues, and see what your finished card looks like at the end — it’s always a fun surprise!

*You will create a landscape card. Feel free to adjust the size of the panels if desired. There’s no right or wrong way to do mystery stampin’!

Celebrating A 106th Birthday!!!

June 13, 2026June 13, 2026 ~ Jeanie Stark ~ 12 Comments

Today is the 106th birthday of an amazing woman in our community. I have enjoyed creating items for this event and helping celebrate this milestone with so many others in our community. The celebration started on June 1st gifting her with these Happy Birthday boxes I put together. (It worked out perfectly… Happy Birthday has 13 letters and her birthday is on the 13th!)
Stampin' Up! Simply Classic Treat Boxes ad Alphabet A La Mode Dies Birthday advent boxes-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
I used the Simply Classic Treat Boxes and Alphabet A La mode dies. I bought several packages of these boxes when they went on clearance and am so glad I did! Red is her favorite color so I used a couple of retired punches to create the flowers and leaves. A few pearl embellishments and these were done in less than an hour!

Each box is filled with a message and/or treat for the day. So many wonderful people came together to help celebrate each day by bringing her flowers and meals, providing a manicure/spa treatment, playing music, etc. At 106 you don’t want too many surprises so opening the birthday boxes one at a time let her know what to look forward to each day.

On Tuesday I picked up and delivered lunch from Chick Fil A for her and others.
www.juststampin.com
Of course I had to make her a chicken card to coordinate! LOL
Stampin' Up! Hey Birthday Chick fun fold birthday card idea-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
I pulled from my retired stash and used the Hey Birthday Chick stamp set and dies for this card. This window bridge card idea is from Linda Heller. An acetate window sheet creates the see through.

I love the “spring chicken” sentiment!!

Thursday was ice cream sundae day and I got to roll the ice cream cart and fix sundaes for her and others. I played the ice cream truck music to let them know I was coming. LOL

I also created this “no calorie” cake and mini card for the last box.
Stampin' Up! Party Wishes stamp set mini card and votive candle cake with Itty Bitty Banners-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
Today her family and friends came to celebrate and brought cake and food. Her cake was beautiful (and delicious)!!!
www.juststampin.com
Everyone has been sending cards (in hopes we would reach a total of 106). Last count she received 107!!!! WOW! 🙂

Here is one I created using one of my favorite past Paper Pumpkin Kits, Time For Cake.
Stampin' Up! Time for Cake Paper Pumpkin fun fold birthday card alternative idea-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
I got this fun fold alternative idea from Lynn Dunn. I love how it opens up…

I had the perfect sentiment to go with this card from the Best of Birthdays (retired) stamp set. I wish I took a close up as it’s hard to see in the photo. It says, “a candle for every year might not be such a good idea…” LOL Our birthday girl has a great sense of humor and I think she will agree with this!

Helping with this celebration has just filled my heart with joy! There were 5 generations together today! What an amazing accomplishment!

I love that this craft we share and enjoy brings so much joy to us and others!

FYI…Today is the LAST DAY for FREE SHIPPING!!!
