In January, I hosted my 8th Stamp, Crop & Cruise Retreat. This time we cruised to the Southern Caribbean on Celebrity Cruise Lines Silhouette. Over the next few days I’ll be sharing all the projects and goodies from our cruise.
Once I have all the projects designed and the product ordered and cut and packaged up into project kits, I ship a box off to each participant filled with all kinds of goodies. Each crafting participant brought all the goodies with them on the cruise. Want to see what was in their boxes?
Here’s the tote bag that was filled with all of the class projects.
While on the cruise we stamp on the days at sea with one class in the morning and one class in the afternoon. I designed 7 different classes with a variety of different techniques, styles and fun folds. I design the projects with beginners, casual and avid stampers in mind.
Everyone received a custom designed t-shirt and matching water bottle with the trip’s logo. The bright green things are luggage handle wraps, so that everyone could spot their luggage easily at baggage claim. A notebook and matching pen was added to each bag as well as a card kit they could work on in their free time.
Every class included an accessory to use on the projects and there was plenty left over for them to take home for more creating.
I also included a magnetic sign for their cabin door and a table card for the crafting room so that everyone would get to know everyone else.
This 8″ x 8″ framed art piece was one of the class projects and it was a big hit with the crafters. It used the Notes and Totes Bundle and it makes for a great place to display their favorite photo from the cruise.
We had 37 stampers attend this cruise (some were not able to make it for the photo shoot) as well as lots of family and friends that came along for the ride. One of the things I think is so special about a Stamp, Crop & Cruise Retreat is that we have specific class time when we’re all in the stamp room at the same time, so everyone gets to hang out with others that enjoy paper crafting as much as they do. It’s great to meet new people and with so many returning cruise after cruise, it’s kind of like a family reunion!
Be sure to check back over the next few days to see more of the projects we all made.

How much is the cruise? Do you have to be a S.U. Demonstrator to go?
Lee Sacosky
Hi Lee, thanks for reaching out. The crafting portion of the cruise is $275 and is open to everyone (not required to be SU demonstrator). The cost of the cruise itself depends on when you book it with our travel agent and what type of cabin you choose. There’s a tab at the top of my blog page that says cruises. I have another one scheduled to the Eastern Caribbean for January 2027 and another in July 2027 to Iceland.
