Important Announcement: Fun Stampers Journey and Spellbinders Are Merging

As of 1 November, Fun Stampers Journey is merging with Spellbinders. Were you aware that Spellbinders makes all of FSJ's dies and die cutting machines! Both companies are backed by the same investors too. So we already have a great deal in common.

With this merger, comes change. Fun Stampers Journey will no longer be a Direct Sales Company. HOWEVER, our products and Spellbinders products will be available through your favorite Coach via an affiliate program as of 1 November.

Until the transition is complete (1 November), it is business as usual. If you would like to purchase FSJ products, I hope that you will select me as your Coach and place an order through my website.

At this point, I want to focus on NOW. Watch for more live feeds, blog posts, and sharing my love of crafting with you. As we get closer to the transition date, I will share more details with you. Right now I am in super learning mode, and the affiliate type business is new to me.

Thank you for your love and support.

Sparkle Trim Stamp Set Used With Branch Cone Die Set - Christmas Card - Fun Stampers Journey Products

So excited to share with you my finished So Plaid Ribbon background card.   I am a little late posting it to my blog today, but had to share it as soon as I finished it.

After attaching the ribbon background to the Fresh Forest Card Base, I decided to cut out the pine branches and pine cones using the Branch Cone Die set.   I accented the pine cones with a bit of Journey Glaze and Sparkle Cuts (chunky glitter).   The sentiment "Merry Christmas" is from the stamp set called Sparkle Trim and stamped with Black Licorice Ink Pad.   Using the Corner Rounder, I rounded the corners and then brushed it on the Fresh Forest Ink Pad for a bit of color on the edges.      The pine branches were glued down with our Journey Craft Glue.   The pine cones and sentiment are attached with foam squares.

Yesterday's blog post shows a close up of just the ribbon background that I created by weaving strips of the ribbon.   CLICK HER TO VIEW.

So Plaid Ribbon Woven to Create Background - Fun Stampers Journey Products

Last night I was working on creating something unique and different.   I decided to take So Plaid Ribbon and see if I could weave a background with it.    This is the result.   It's not made into a card yet, but wanted to share my work in progress with you.

I cut a piece of Whip Cream Card Stock 5" x 3 3/4" to act as a base.   I used White Liner to secure the ends of the ribbon on the back of the base.

Once I get the card finished, I will post it for you to see.  Leaning towards a Christmas card for this.

What do you think of using ribbon this way?
