Congratulations Card in the Mail

August 23, 2017 By Becky Jensen 5 Comments

I was excited to receive a handmade card in the mail this week. It was from Rich Jutkins, the president and COO of Stampin’ Up! with a handwritten note inside. Then, yesterday I received a voicemail (I didn’t get to answer the call) from one of the ladies at the Stampin’ Up! home office. What a fun week!

Why? With your help, I recently reached a sales milestone with Stampin’ Up! I could not do it without you, thank you! When I purchased my Starter Kit in January of 2006, I had no idea how this would go. I still enjoy stamping and teaching as much as I did then!

I thought you might like to see the card I received in the mail.

Stamp of the Month Classes Summer 2017

June 2, 2017 By Becky Jensen 1 Comment

We had such a great time at the New Catalog Party last evening! Between being with friends, creating, eating yummy foods, and looking at a new catalog . . . what isn’t there to like?!

I am working on the summer class calendar, but until I hear from the library about the dates I’m requesting to have classes there, I can’t really post a finished schedule. I can post the upcoming Stamp of the month classes, however! Here they are:

Sharing Jaan’s Creativity for Leader Appreciation

May 8, 2017 By Becky Jensen 1 Comment

My children attend Awana at our church, and my husband and I work with the Awana program. Last evening was Leader Appreciation Night and I wanted to share what my my middle son, Jaan, made for his leaders.

Jaan asked me to show him where the t-shirt dies were before I went to take my Sunday afternoon nap yesterday. He was planning to make a little something for his leaders. I showed him the dies and then went to lie down. Apparently he got pretty busy while I was sleeping! When I came back down, he showed me this.

In Awana they wear uniform shirts and this looks like the shirt for his class! He made one of these for each of the leaders in his class and then wrote a little message on the back. Supper cute!

He told me he made something for me as well, but didn’t want to show it to me at that time.

I work the check-in desk at Awana, On a normal night I’m asking them if they have certain items and then they get “Awana Bucks” for having the things they need. At different times throughout the year, the kids are given the opportunity to use their Awana Bucks to purchase items from the “store.”

When Jaan came to check in, he laid this on the table.

This is his version of 5 Awana Bucks! He did such a good job and had me laughing – I love it! This is about the size of a business card and he wrote a nice little message on the back. (The real thing does have a dog in the middle with it’s tongue hanging out, just in case you’re wondering.)

I hope you’ve enjoyed seeing the creativity from Jaan today! I look forward to seeing several of you in classes tomorrow for the Stamp of the Month, Step It Up, and Lighthouse Decor classes!

Quick Trip North Spring 2017

April 29, 2017 By Becky Jensen 1 Comment

I had plans to write blog posts this past week while we went up north . . . but I’m afraid being on vacation went to my head and I forgot all about my resolve. My brain just clicked into vacation mode and now I find myself at home with no blog posts being written this past week. Don’t you love vacation?!

I thought you might like to see a quick picture, we primarily spent our time with Andrew’s family in New York but we did sneak away to Vermont one morning. This is a picture of a covered bridge we crossed over during our trip. (We may have turned around and gone back just to make sure we crossed it and I was able to take pictures!) As it turns out, Norman Rockwell’s house was at the end of that particular road, but we did not have time to stop and explore.

In stampin’ news, here is a simple card we made with the High Tide stamp set in the High Tide Stamp of the Month Class the other week.Continue reading
