My Stampin’ Therapy

March 21, 2020March 21, 2020 ~ Jeanie Stark ~ 14 Comments

Wow! What a week! I hope you all are staying home and staying healthy! We had to drive to Georgia (2 days each way) to pick up our daughter and move her and all her stuff back home. She would have been graduating in May; however, they have cancelled the graduation and she will have online classes for the remainder of the semester. As we all adjust to the changes in our life one thing we can all do to make a difference is make cards and send cards! Not only is stamping great “therapy” but there are others that need some happy mail now more than ever. A friend of mine works at a nursing home and shared that the residents are anxious and miss having visitors. I have been working on making cards for them. I know it won’t compare to having their loved ones visit but hopefully it will bring a smile to their face knowing that others are thinking of them and care as well! I have been going through my past paper pumpkin kits and using up my extra refill kits, leftover embellishments, etc. These kits make for some quick & easy cards when you need to make many (or a few). I just added some Stampin’ Up note cards & envelopes to create all these cards! . Here’s a look at what I’ve made so far.

Here’s some masculine ones…

For April, Stampin’ Up! created a fun, family appreciation themed card kit that would make it easy for others to share their hearts with those they love most: mom, dad, daughter, son, sister, and brother. April’s kit even includes Mother’s Day and Father’s Day sentiments, giving you the perfect way to show your appreciation for beloved parents on their special days with a beautiful, handmade card. Everyone’s clan is unique. With that in mind, Stampin’ Up! provided sentiments that would include anyone in your life who feels like family; for instance, “brothers” and “sisters” who have helped you along the journey of life. This “fam-tastic” kit will be perfect for reaching out and connecting with those who are most important.

No Tricks, Just Treats!

October 31, 2019 ~ Jeanie Stark ~ 4 Comments

Happy Halloween! I have several treats to share with you today! First, I have a winner from yesterday’s post where I asked you to leave a comment telling me what you would like to see under your tree this year. I always enjoy reading everyone’s comments. The winner is…. Carmen! She said, “Anything that is a surprise”. Well, Carmen, I have a surprise for you! Email me (j.stark@myactv.net) your address and I will ship your gift to you!

Here’s a really special treat that I was the lucky recipient to receive. Liza Stucker made this Halloween sampler and I am in complete awe! I had to display it in a place of honor as it just brings me smiles!

Stampin' Up! 12x12 Halloween sampler idea - Jeanie Stark StampinUp — Created by Liza Stucker

It even lights up!!!

Here’s a close up of each of her mini works of art.

Here’s the thing….I have never met Liza and I am so humbled by her generosity. She follows my blog and reached out for some help getting some of the products she needed to put this all together. I never expected to be one of the recipients of this awesome creation! She truly embodies the motto, “Share Handmade Kindness”!!! I say it all the time but it is worth repeating…don’t ever underestimate what you do when you create from your heart and share! The simple joy it brings is priceless!!!

K is for Kindness

July 10, 2019September 1, 2019 ~ Jeanie Stark ~ 3 Comments

Welcome to my ABC Card Series! Throughout this series I’ll be sharing a variety of cards for every occasion from A to Z! Today is a card for kindness.

I used the Painted Harvest Stamp Set for this lovely sentiment. I cut and layered it with the Layering Circles Dies. I use the layering shape dies a lot! These are a must have in my opinion. Stampin’ Up! carries the layering dies in circles, ovals, squares, or rectangles. These dies make it quick & easy to create. I added some texture with the Denim Ribbon and Scalloped Linen Ribbon. This card started with a piece of Pressed Petals Specialty Designer Series Paper and you can see it is similar to yesterday’s card with just a few little changes.
