Well this week has been exciting, devastating and encouraging all in one! Devastating - one of Alberta's iconic land marks has burnt due to a raging wild fire. The town of Jasper, and surrounding National Park areas have had a devastating hit this week. So much
has burnt right to the ground as the wildfire was advancing 14 kms an hour. Many did not have time to save anything besides themselves and pets.  So sad  Encouraging - registration for the Season of Green & Gold Suite Mega Christmas Stamp Camp has exceeded my wildest dreams, and I can't thank everyone enough. Now the prep begins!  Exciting - with orders from the Free Shipping promotion, and a few coming in after that, I am excited to let you know that I qualified for the next Stampin' Up! Incentive Trip to Orlando, Florida - Disneyworld - in May 2025 (a full 2 months sooner than last year)!  You are the reason this happens, and I am truly humbled by all your support over the past
year. Disclaimer: less than 1% of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators qualify for the Incentive Trips (I have to say this as per SU policy).  Information on the September Classes - All Occasion and Christmas Tags) will come on Monday in my next
newsletter! Â
Now, here's all the news in my Stamping World for you. I hope you have a wonderful weekend, and I hope to see you during one of my live stamping demonstrations soon! Â

Creative Inspiration with a Colour CombinationHere's this month's colour combination: Â Â And here's the project it inspired: Â Â Send a wagon full of festive fun with the Filled With Cheer Stamp Set, a new addition to our Online Exclusive Collection that also coordinates with the Filled With Fun Dies from March's product release. Â The snowman image from the Filled with Cheer Cling Stamp Set was stamped using Tuxedo Black Mementoâ„¢ Ink
on a Basic White Cardstock panel. The image was coloured using Stampin' Blends (Crumb Cake, Misty Moonlight, Mossy Meadow, Peach Pie, and Petunia Pop). The wagon and wheel images were stamped on Crumb Cake Cardstock using Early Espresso Classic Stampin' Ink and cut out using the coordinating dies from the Filled with Fun Dies. The wheels were first adhered to the wagon die cut, and then the completed wagon element adhered to the stamped panel. A torn strip of Basic White Cardstock was added at
the bottom of the panel, slightly overlapping with the wagon's wheels, to imitate snow. Linen thread was wrapped around the panel and tied in a bow. The stamped panel was then adhered to a Petunia Pop Cardstock mat.
A panel of the confetti patterned paper from the Iconic Imagery 6" x 6" (15.2 x 15.2 cm) Designer Series Paper was adhered to the bottom of the front of a Misty Moonlight folded card base. The completed stamped panel was adhered over the top using Stampin' Dimensionals. The
sentiment was stamped on a strip of Crumb Cake Cardstock using Early Espresso ink, and the right edge cut at an angle. The stamped strip was adhered to the top left of the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals. Single Pearl Adhesive-Backed Berries were added to the stamped layer as final embellishments. Â Shop my top product picks for this project: (please note the Cherry Cobbler & Pearl Adhesive-Backed Berries embellishments are
currently out of stock, but due back the week of August 5th!
Have a wonderful week, and I hope to see you soon, In My Craft Room! Stampin' Smiles Glenda
