Christmas

Tropical Snow Globe

Welcome to the Stampin’ Pretty Pals’ Blog Hop!

This month’s theme is Winter Wonderland. We hope to inspire you with our creations today! The lineup is at the end of my post to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal.

Stampin Up Tropical Snowman Hugs snow globe card designed by demo Beth McCullough.  Shop 24/7 and see more fun fold and 3-D gift ideas at https://stampingmom.com/tropical-snow-globe/ #stampingmom, #bethmccullough, #sharestampinup, #cute&simple4u, #stampinup, #bright&happy #happy #cardmaking #papercraft

The snow globe is tropical on the inside and snowy on the outside. I made it for my friend, Bev, who lives in Iowa in the Summer and Florida in the Winter. So the inside of her snow globe is Florida and the outside is Iowa. OK, in my head I was cracking myself up! 🙂 Let me know if you get it.

2025 Spring Mini Catalog Product Shares

You can see everything I used to make this card and purchase supplies at the bottom of this post. The tropical flower is from the upcoming SAB Heart Shaped dies-#164946. The glimmer paper in an upcoming Online Exclusive-Pastel More Glimmer #164851. The glimmer paper is part of my 2025 Spring Mini Catalog Shares + a few selected Online Exclusives. The shares of paper, ribbon and embellishments are $69 shipped. You can see the pdf of everything included here. I have a couple shares left and you can email me at Beth@StampingMom.com or fill out this google form.

There’s more inspiration to show you, so use the lineup below to visit the rest of the Design Team. Please mark your calendars for our next blog hop next month, when our theme will be Sale-A-Bration Inspiration.

Until then, have fun in your craft space.

Here’s my first ever rhubarb strawberry pie and also it was the first time I did a lattice crust.

It was for my son, Ryan’s, 29th birthday! He usually asks me to make him an apple pie for his birthday cake, but he’s had so many pieces of rhubarb strawberry pie on his RAGBRAI’s (bicycle ride across Iowa) that he has a new favorite! I used frozen rhubarb from my garden and frozen strawberries from the store. 🙂 I googled a new crust recipe that is half lard and half butter. It was so much easier to work with, which is why I ventured into the lattice top world. I have new confidence going into Thanksgiving pie baking, with this new recipe. Do you know anyone else who prefers birthday pie over birthday cake? I’d love to hear about it, please leave me a comment.
