Beautiful Blizzard

Today’s post was inspired by this weekends weather event. Here in North Georgia we woke up to snow and sleet Saturday, and of course with that comes power outages. All this was of course thanks to the winter storm Diego that was cutting a path across the Southeast.

So I spend the day yesterday cleaning up somethings that I’ve meant to get done ages ago – where I had enough light that is LOL. We were lucky to have power by the time we went to bed again all thanks to the hard working men and women at our EMC – bless them for having to be out working in the worst weather conditions while we are safe in our homes.

Here is a picture of my yard to give you an idea of what it was like for us here in Clarkesville.

You can see where the rain/sleet run off was – the snow started melting there first.
I have to say I love this old oak tree it is always beautiful – and yep this is as far as I ventured out. I don’t if I don’t have to when we get weather like this – and this snow was WAY to wet to play in this time.  LOL!


So today I’ll highlight the Beautiful Blizzard stamp set and it’s coordinating Blizzard Dies. Here are some wonderful cards made with these products – And did you know that these products are part of of Year End Closeout? Yep, they are and not only that they are discounted too! So why not check them out?

Here’s a shaker card that’s been sprayed with our Frost White Shimmer Mist to create a beautiful shimmery effect. You can find my video tutorial to do this on my YouTube channel.

Stop back by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing a tutorial with you for my December Thank You card. Until then happy stamping!

Falling for Leaves Tutorial & More

I’ve got another project from my Holiday Catalog Kick Off for you – and a couple more Tutorials too! I originally designed this card for my Team Retreat in August, but couldn’t resist sharing it with you too!

This card is a wow with it’s texture and shimmer, that are created with a Copper Shimmer Mist,  torn edge and Corrugated layers. And it’s so easy to do!

I’ve created a couple of tutorials for you. The first is a PDF for the card so you can recreate it for yourself it includes both a complete supply list and directions.

Check out this short little video where I show you how you can create your own Shimmer Mist.

Once you play with the Merry Merlot & Copper Reversible Ribbon you’ll want some too – it’s to die for. And the Copper Shimmer Paint! So many ways to use this stuff – you can even use an Uninked Stampin’ Spot (141822) to create your own little Copper ink pad! How cool is that?

On to a couple of things you’ll want to know that are time sensitive:

Did you know that Fast Fuse is back? But it’s only While Supplies Last!

If you’re like me, you thought the days of Fast Fuse were done at Stampin’ Up! (You know . . .since Stampin’ Up! retired the product and everything!) However, our vendor reached out because they manufactured a surplus of Fast Fuse applicators and refills, and they offered to sell their excess Fast Fuse inventory to us. Stampin’ Up! took them up on their offer and purchased 2,500 Fast Fuse applicators and 72,000 Fast Fuse refills.

Whoo! hoo! So you won’t want to delay in ordering yours, since it while supplies last!

Items Approaching Not-Orderable Status

Here’s what Stampin’ Up! has told us.

Sales for the following holiday catalog products have exceeded Stampin’ Up!’s forecast and are continuing strong, resulting in a significant number of back orders. It will be at least 30 days before these items are back in stock.

147905: Santa’s Workshop Memories & More Card Pack
147807: Chicken Wire Elements

These products will remain available until Wednesday, September 19 at 10:00 AM (MT); they will then be placed in not-orderable status. After that you will receive a pop-up notification asking if you would like to be notified via email when these products are back in stock. This will allow you to find out immediately when the status changes for these items and they are again available for purchase.

Thanks for your patience and understanding.

Explanatory note: Costs incurred by backorders can be in the tens and even hundreds of thousands of dollars; therefore, after weighing the variables, we occasionally must make the decision to temporarily turn off an item number rather than permit back orders to accrue. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause; however, putting a product in not-orderable status while we wait for the stock to replenish allows the company to hold costs down.
