Hi everyone! It’s been a while. I know. Been struggling with whether or not I want to continue supporting my blog. And also struggling with continuing with Stampin’ UP! Still working out the details, but the problem is it’s turned into more of a job than something I enjoy. But every so often I get the urge to create. I have been listing retired Stampin’ UP! products on EBay and came across this delightful stamp set in my stash called Script Heart. Coupled with the watercolor pencils and Occasions DSP called Happiness Blooms, it becomes a beautiful retro look for St Valentine. I love the sentiment creating the heart. I still might add the word LOVE below the heart. Enjoy!

Christmas Cruise
Mad you may know, Rick and I are on a Christmas River Biat Cruise on the Danube. This was taken just outside Salzburg. Because Facebook is so much easier to post pics,I’ll be posting all my pics on my Stampin-Stule Facebook Page.

End of Year Clearance and Christmas Cruise
Where has the time gone? It seems as though we just got the Holiday Catalog, and here we are in December and looking at the discontinued items list. But the good news is you have until January 2 2019 to purchase these items WHILE SUPPLIES LAST. So don’t delay. Click the banner for the list!
On the 6th of December Rick and I left Palm Springs for Vienna where we will embark upon another Holiday Markets River Boat Cruise. (Which explains why I’m a bit late sharing the retiring items list.). Below are a few pics taken during the first 24 hours of our adventure. The mountain pic was taken from the plane as we headed up to Seattle for our connecting flights to London and Vienna.
These pics are of the Christmas Tree in the hotel lobby. The close up of the tree shows the amazing structure of this work of art. I have no idea how they did it, so don’t expect a “Step by Step” on THIS project!
And here’s a pic of our friends Jeffrey and Steve along with Rick and I grabbing a bite with a cocktail. I’ll try to continue to post our adventure - internet availabity permitting through our 10 day excursion. Enjoy!

Snow Is Glistening For Joy
Stampin’Up! Stamparatus and Snowflake Showcase
Here's a primarily monochromatic card created with the Snow Is Glistening Christmas tree. The Designer Series Paper used in this project is from the Under The Mistletoe DSP. It has a touch of Old Olive in it, the rest is Real Red - the perfect Christmas color. But what I love the most about this project is the right border using the word Joy. It may look difficult, but the Stamparatus makes it SO EASY.
The Snowflake Showcase Suite is only available until November 30, so if you haven’t already purchased yours, check out this link for a last opportunity.
So...let's get started...
- We're going to start mounting the Stamparatus plate on the top hinge.
- Next mount the word Joy at the top left corner of the Stamparatus plate as shown.
- Ink it up and stamp it. Move the plate one notch to the right, ink up the stamp and stamp it again. Continue moving forward until the entire border is complete.
- Cut a 2 1/2" x 4 1/2" piece of DSP and stamp the tree image using Real Red ink.
- Mat it on a 2 3/4" x 4 3/4" piece of Real Red card stock.
- Mount it on the card base using Stampin' Dimensionals - Simple!

Snow Is Glistening - Clean & Simple
Stampin’ UP! Snowflake Showcase and Under The Mistletoe DSP
Here’s another quick and easy Christmas card from the Snow Is Glistening stamp set with a minimal number of supples you can create this lovely card. And if you’re creating a bunch of cards, these are perfect for assembly line creation. Monochromatic cards are so classy looking and whether in Real Red or Garden Green, or even silver or gold, you can be sure it will look beautiful. Let’s get started.
Step by Step:
- Start by cutting a 4” x 5 1/4” piece of Under The Mistletoe. Attach it to the card base.
- Cut a 5” x 2 3/4”piece of Read Red Card Stock. Use you Stampin’ Buddy to remove and static electricity or residue left from your hands. Use VersaMark Ink to stamp the tree and tree trunk image and heat emboss it using a Heat Tool and White Stampin’ Emboss Powder.
- Mat the tree element on a 3” x 5 1/4” piece of Whisper White Card Stock. Mount it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Attach a Twinkle Silver Adhesive Backed Sequin to the top of the tree. Simple!
