Known as the Scrappy Strip Technique, you may have seen card samples with this technique and I sit and wonder why it took me so long to try it! It's so very simple!

Throughout the months since this past March, what we've missed most are these three precious granddaughters.
Before you ask...yes, Jackie and I are still being very cautious since I have a heart condition and we now have my 90 year old dad here with us. One of our daughters and her husband are both medical professionals. She is a trauma/ER nurse and he, a nurse anesthetist, so they are both in the thick of it all, so to speak. We are blessed and grateful for their service and their knowledge. Our youngest daughter and her husband work in ministry; he a pastor of a church in north Texas. We look to all of them for guidance and we wait in hope.
I've talked to many of you who are also in this same situation. How thankful we are for technology with FaceTime, video chat, and Zoom. At least this youngest little sweetheart will recognize me when I get to hug and hold her again.
Our two girls were able to get their families together this past weekend and look how sweet these cousins are playing together. This makes my heart so happy! Don't you just love candid shots like this?
Although we are not all together, these captured moments are priceless. I see some memory keeping/scrapbooking pages forthcoming with these photos!
I am thankful to find joy in these moments that these our girls and their families share. And, I know in my heart that the Lord is working on us and through us in all of this. In Him is our hope.
I pray that your days may bring you joy and that hope fill your hearts.
May the peace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all!
Today's project and video tutorial is a fun little treat box using the Stampin' Up! Hippo Happiness Bundle (English) [154080]. This bundle has a fun stamp set and an awesome set of coordinating dies that had three sets of labels that can be used with any project!
Our granddaughters will love receiving some fun things in these cute boxes. But, think of this project as not just for the young but for all the young at heart, too!
Watch the video below and see how easy this is to put this little box together!
The Stamparatus [146276]is a great stamping tool to use for two and three step images such as the hippo.

Card base is cut 8 x 5-1/2 and folded in half at 4".
Mark as seen in video 1/2" from top left from fold and 3-1/2" down on the right open side of the card. Score.
Designer paper for inside is cut 3-1/2 x 5 and ww cut at 1-3/4 x 3-1/4.
For outside cut designer paper 5-1/4 x 3-3/4. Mark in 1/4" from top left and 1-3/4" up from bottom right. Draw a line connecting these two marks and trim off.
Cut a 3 x 3 square of designer paper in half diagonally for triangle corner fold.

This cardmaking process began with a left-over element so it was only right to make a video to walk you through the thought process, don't you agree? It's always fun for me to see how others think through their creative process so this Cardmaking 101 video was recorded with the hope that it will be helpful to someone.
The tips in today's video reveal my thoughts throughout this cardmaking process. It's a fun challenge to start with one piece and design the card around it. Try this next time you have an "extra" and see how easy it is just to go step by step. Your result will be a beautiful card from your own cardmaking process!
