Memory Journal - Living through COVID-19

A few weeks ago I was making Memory Journals for family and friends to jot down their thoughts and feelings about the pandemic.  While making these journals, I developed a list of thought provoking ideas and questions.  I updated the list today to include the states re-opening, Memorial Day, 4th of July, and, unfortunately, the riots.

If these questions can help you in creating a journal of this life-changing pandemic, feel free to use them.

Living through COVID-19

Coronavirus 2020

(updated July 2020)

2020 started off with an unforeseen tragedy -- COVID-19 aka Coronavirus

We, everyone who is alive in 2020, are living through a historical event that has not been seen for many, many years; decades in fact.  This is a great opportunity to put our thoughts and feelings down on paper for our descendents to read what we went through.

I am in the process of making Memory Journals, Thoughts and Feelings, for friends and family as well as a Junk Journal for myself.  Along with the journals, I have put together a list of questions and ideas that may start you thinking about what you, your family and friends and co-workers have been going through during the pandemic.  If I have left something out, please send me a message with your ideas/thoughts  and I will share the ones I receive in another post.  The following ideas/questions are not in any particular order.  I wrote them down as I thought of them, although I have tried to group some of them.  Not every thought/question will apply to everyone, they are here to engage your thoughts.

Card made with Retiring Designer Series Paper

I completed three of the cards I was not able to complete on Saturday at the Facebook Live Event my uplines hosted.  All three cards use the retiring Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper.

The first card base is made with Mossy Meadow cardstock (5-1/2"x8-1/2" folded at 4-1/4"). A Versamark ink pad was used to stamp the buds (from the Good Morning Magnolia stamp set -- current) all over the front of the card and a 2"x 5-1/2" strip of Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper was added to the card front and edged with white ribbon inked (colored) with a Mossy Meadow maker applied with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  The greeting (from the Good Morning Magnolia stamp set) was stamped on Whisper White cardstock using a Black Memento ink pad, punched out with the retiring Pretty Label Punch and attached with Stampin' Dimensionals.  Basic Rhinestones were added for some extra bling.

For the inside of the card a piece of Whisper White cardstock (3-1/4"x4") and a 2"x4" piece of matching Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper were attached using Snail Adhesive (retiring).  A piece of white ribbon inked with a Mossy Meadow marker was added over the seam where the two pieces of cardstock met. To add points of interest, three buds from a coordinating sheet of Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper were "fussy cut" and attached using Stampin' Dimensionals.

The base for Card Two was made with Basic Black cardstock (4-1/4"x11" folded at 5-1/2").  The buds were stamped using the bud stamp from the Good Morning Magnolia stamp set (current) in Black Memento using the stamping off technique. Each bud was stamped off twice before being stamped on Whisper White cardstock (3"x4") and attached to the top of the card front using Snail Adhesive (retiring). Coordinating Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper was added under the Whisper White cardstock using Snail Adhesive. Black ribbon was added where over the seam where the two pieces of cardstock met using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. A small bow made with black ribbon was attached to the right side of the strip of ribbon using Glue Dots.  Flowers were cut out of Coordinating Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper and attached to the front of the card using Stampin' Dimensionals. The Greeting was stamped from the Good Morning Magnolia stamp set in Black Memento Ink and punched out with the Tailored Tag Punch (current), the edges were sponged with Mossy Meadow ink with a Stampin' Sponge and attached using Snail Adhesive.  Retired Black Rhinestones were added for symmetry.

Using Black Memento ink, the abstract stamp from the Good Morning Magnolia stamp set was stamped across the bottom of Whisper White cardstock (4-1/4"x4") and attached to the inside of the card using Snail Adhesive. A 1"x4" piece of coordinating Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper was attached below the Whisper White cardstock using Snail Adhesive. A strip of ribbon inked with a Mossy Meadow maker was attached across the seam using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  A flower was cut out of a piece of coordinating paper from the Magnolia Lane Designers Series Paper and attached using Snail Adhesive.

Card Three using Basic Black cardstock for the base (4-1/4"x11", folded at 5-1/2").  Petal Pink cardstock (3"x4") was attached to the top of the base and Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper (2-1/4"x4") was attached under the Petal Pink cardstock using Snail Adhesive.  Ribbon inked with a Mossy Meadow marker was attached across the seam using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  Flowers were fussy-cut from coordinating Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper. Two were attached to a piece of gold printed vellum (1-3/4"x 2-3/8" -- retired) using glue dots.  The vellum was attached to the card front using glue dots and the remaining flowers were attached using Stampin' Dimensionals.  Greeting was stamped in Black Memento Ink (from the Good Morning Magnolia stamp set) on Whisper White cardstock, punched out using the retiring Pretty Label Punch and attached to the card front after a small piece of Mossy Meadow inked ribbon was added to the back of the greeting. Retired gold rhinestones were added for bling.

A 1-1/4"x4" piece of coordinating Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper was attached to the bottom of a piece of Whisper White cardstock (5-1/4"x4") using Snail Adhesive. A flower was fussy-cut from a coordinating piece of Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper and attached to the bottom using Snail Adhesive.  The piece of Whisper White cardstocked was adhered to the inside of the card using Snail Adhesive.

I hope you have enjoyed these cards as much as I enjoyed creating them.  Which one is your favorite?

See you soon. Stay safe and hurry back.

Stampin'Up! Retired Products

On Saturday, June 25, 2020, a group of very talented Stampin'Up! Demonstrators hosted a Facebook Live Event for their downlines.  One of those downlines was me, Brenda!  Yeah!!!!

The Facebook Live Event had two purposes:  1) Showing us fellow downliners how to create a Facebook Live Event using retiring products; and, 2) Having fun while we do it.  We learned soooo many tips and tricks my head is spinning. We also were provided with several card ideas using the retiring products; i.e., retiring cardstock (In-Colors), retiring Designer Series Papers (DSPs), and retiring accessories.  Shown are three of the cards I created using retiring products.

Top:  During January-March each year Stampin'Up! hosts their biggest Sale-of-the-Year, SALE-A-BRATIONS.  During this three month period you can earn free product with every $50 you spend on products from the 2019-2020 Annual Catalog or the 2020 Mini Spring Catalog.

The top card was made using the Parisian Blossoms Designer Series Paper.  I cut the card base out of Balmy Blue (5-1/2"x8-1/2" folded in half at 4-1/4") and layered one design from the DSP on top (5-1/4"x4").  I cut several flowers from one sheet of the floral paper included in the package and attached them randomly on the card front.  I used a 6" piece of retired white ribbon and colored it using a Bermuda Bay marker and I colored two Basic Pearls using a Dark Bermuda Bay and one Basic Pearl using a Light Bermuda Bay Stampin' Blends.  The greeting (from the Good Morning Magnolia stamp set -- current) was stamped in Black Memento Ink on a piece of Petal Pink cardstock using the Tailored Tag Punch and attached with Stampin' Dimensionals.



I love birds and I really love this package of Designer Series Paper called Bird Ballad found in the 2019-2020 Annual Catalog.  I am so sorry to see this lovely paper retire.

This note card was created using a 5"x7" piece of cardstock folded in half at 3-1/2" (or you can use one of the note cards cut to size from Stampin'Up!). I layered a piece of Petal Pink cardstock onto the Whisper White cardstock (4-3/4"x 3-1/4") and finished with a piece of Designer Series Paper from Bird Ballad (4-1/2"x3"). Again, I colored a 4" piece retired white ribbon with the Petal Pink Marker and attached it to a small piece of Designer Series Paper from Bird Ballad and stamped the greeting (from the Well Said stamp set -- current) with Memento Ink. I attached the greeting to the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals.

My Sister-in-Law, El, loves bird even more than me.  I do believe she can name just about every bird you can find in North America, so, I will be sending this card to her.  (If you are reading this El, I hope you like it, lol.)





My final card used the Bird Ballad Designer Series Paper, too.  The card base is 5-1/2"x8-1/2" folded at 4-1/4".  I took a 5"x3-1/2" piece of scrap cardstock and attached 5 strips of the Bird Ballad Designer Series Paper (1"x3-1/2"), mixing and matching to the look I was going for.  The retired white ribbon was colored with the Petal Pink Marker and wrapped around the 5"x3-1/2" piece of card stock and tied with a button and attached to the card front using Snail Adhesive (retiring June 2, 2020).  The greeting (from the Well Said stamp set -- current) was stamped in Memento Black Ink on Petal Pink cardstock, punched out with the retiring Pretty Label Punch.

A big Shout Out to Cheri, Susan and Tonya for hosting this fantastic event and giving me the opportunity to showcase some of the retiring product from Stampin'Up!

Which card do you like the best?  Let me a comment and I will choose one lucky person to receive that card (sorry El if someone chooses your card and wins).

Paper Pumpkin Cards

Paper Pumpkin

(older kits)

I received my April Paper Pumpkin Kit and went to work immediately. Then -- I started feeling a bit guilty that I have several older kits sitting around that I had not completed. 

Soooo, I pull out this kit for June 2019. Somewhere along the way, I lost the instructions so I created 10 alternate note cards:



After I completed the above kit, I started in on the April 2019 kit and completed it (by following the directions -- no alternates).  I really enjoyed completing this kit.  What do you think?

I'll be back tomorrow with my creations from the April 2020 Paper Pumpkin Kit.  Be sure to come back.

Take care, stay in and be safe.



Memory Journal -- Thoughts of Feelings during the COVID-19 Pandemic

The whole world is reeling from the Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic that hit in January 2020.  Who would have thought that most of the populations throughout the world are sheltering-in-place and practicing social distancing.  Everyone is living in a historical event -- the world has not seen anything like this for decades. 


I am in the process of creating Memory Journals for family and friends so they can journal their thoughts and feelings throughout this pandemic.  Many of our descendants will want to know first hand what happened and will cherish these memories.  The first journal I created was for my friend, Gloria.  She loves owls, so I thought I would decorate her journal with a few of them.

In addition to creating the journal, I put together a PDF with thought-provoking questions and ideas.  Following is the list I came up with.  If you have other questions and ideas, please feel free to share them with me and I will include them in the next PDF.

My challenge:  Create a Memory Journal of the 2020 Coronavirus Pandemic


Have a blessed day, take care and stay safe.

COVID-19 Pandemic

Wow, who would have thought we would have a pandemic in 2020?  BUT, here we are, sheltering in place, social distancing, many of us are not working, many of us are fighting for our lives.  My heart goes out to all the individuals throughout the world who are or have family and friends that are suffering from this horrific virus.  Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers.


Take care everyone.  Follow the federal and state guidelines.  Stay home and keep social distancing.  We will make it through this and life will resume.  Maybe not like it was, but life will go on.  Be safe.

Rotator Cup Problems

I have been out of commission for a couple of months or more due to my rotator cups. It all started last Fall, but I ignored the pain at first thinking "oh, I slept wrong",  I sure don't remember hurting myself, must have lifted something wrong", and a whole lot of other thoughts.  Then I woke up one morning and couldn't raise either arm above shoulder high.  Off to the doc I went, referred to Physical Therapy. After 12 weeks of physical therapy I am now on a home exercise program.  My right arm is doing well, my left arm is being VERY stubborn, but it is slowly coming around.  Still hurts like the dickens when I move it in a direction it doesn't like, but it is improving.


So, I hope to be back on a more permanent basis.


Take care everyone and see you soon with stamping projects.

Oh My Gosh, Has It Been THAT Long?

I am truly sorry for the gap in-between posts, but life does happen.  My hubby and I took a couple of weeks off and went to visit our daughter and her family.  We had a great!  Enjoyed a super Christmas Eve dinner with our Son-In-Law's family.  Heck after 27 years, they are our family, too!


Christmas was fun all around.  Our youngest granddaughter spent the summer with us while she interned at an office on base.  While here she overheard Grandpa and I talking about some bowls we had been looking for.  Well, she is a Computer Science major and she put her skills to work and found the bowls we were looking for, and guess what, they were under the Christmas tree for us.  What a special surprise.


But all good things must come to an end.  Our oldest granddaughter came down with that wicked flu that is going around, then our son-in-law and my hubby soon followed.  Our daughter came down with it the day before we left to come home AND, you guessed it, yours truly came down with it on the way home.  I've been laid up for a couple of weeks and recently started feeling like stamping again.


NOW I am ready to get started again.  All my creative juices are flowing strong and I hope you enjoy the creations I, my sister and my best friend have come up with recently.  Keep coming back each day to see them all.


Take care and I certainly hope and pray that flu bug does not come to visit you!
