Stamp & Camp with Mary There's A Card Thursday - March 26, 2020 - Good Morning Magnolia the Journey

 Another card to get through this special time.  I love the saying "The Journey of life is easy shared with a friend.  We'll get through this together"  So fitting for this time.

I love this set and you can do so much with it.  I have not used the small Magnolia bud much but I do like it on a note card.

You can use any Designer Series Paper with it but the Lily Impression was at the top of the pile so that is what got used.

Here is the video.

Stamp & Camp with Mary #simplestamping - March 25, 2020, #simplestamping Power of hope, Hope is the Power

Today is another #simplestamping card that I will be sending out to folks that may need a little pick me up.   I hope you all are social distancing, here is Michigan we are doing sty at home.  Did take a walk this afternoon and not many people out for a campus town, even in the summer more people are out and about.  I made our first on-line grocery order today, we get to pick it up on Friday.  Some things I may like about this. I am learning new things.  I will be doing a You Tube live on Saturday, got 3 jigsaw puzzles to put together and Meigan wants to bake bread.

I can craft and make cards without the guilt and I like that.  Though I do feel sad for the small business that may not survive this shelter in place and the flattening the curve.  I do respect it as my husband is a high risk person and I hope and pray it stays away from us.

So today I am using the Power of Hope Bundle, which is one of the Sale-A-Bration items.  So fiting for this time.

I love the saying Hope is the power that makes all things possible.  I will be sending this out this week.  For now let's take a look at making this #simplestamping card.

Stamp & Camp with Mary #simplestamping - March 18, 2020 - #simplestamping Painted Poppies Fast Note Card

As many of us are self quarantine or doing Social Distancing to help flatten the Curve for the Coronavirus we are spending a lot of time in our homes.  For us crafters we have been wanting this prescription for years ( maybe not for this reason, but being told to stay home and not go anywhere is super for me). I have a support group and will be isolating with my husband, so I will have some social interaction.  I know some folks that may not have much and they are the ones that really need to stay home without company. This week and net I will be making #simplestamping, fast easy cards to send to them.  I hope you will do the same.  If you don't know anyone call up a local nursing home and ask who you can send a card to that needs it, you may even want to send one to the staff.

I issue you this challenge to send at least 2 cards out to people that may need it this week and every week this crisis is going on.  Let's see if we can easy someone's fear and do what we love to do.

Today is a really fast #simplestamping card.

Fast Easy but anyone would love to get this card.

Here is a short video on how to make this card.
