Pictures from our 2026 Retreat

Good Tuesday morning stamping friends. I hope your week has started off well. I’m having a great time in TN with my friend Judi and her husband Paul. We’re having fun creating together and just spending time chatting.

Before I get going, I’ve been getting emails from some who have signed up for my shares. I just wanted to let you all know that they were mailed out Thursday Sept 10 by 4pm ET either UPS or USPS. I’ve tracked most of them and I know a lot have been delivered. Just remember it is the mail delivering them and some may take longer than others to get to you, though you should all have them by now

Well, our 2026 retreat is in the books and already can’t wait to get together with everyone again. I thought I’d share some photos from the retreat today with you. We had such a wonderful time laughing till our sides ached and tears rolled down our faces.

Here’s the craft area we get to work in. Look at the amazing lighting that James installed since last year. None of us had to use our desk lights to see this year. I think one of the things I like the most is the socializing with everyone and making the cards they designed. I got to play with sets that I wasn’t sure if I wanted to purchase, of course now I want them all.

We were all hard at work creating along with doing a lot of chatting.

This is Poe, one of James’ pups.

And this one is Cooper the other pup that was there with us.

Our first night’s dinner was a delicious Beef Lasagna, veggies and garlic bread.

In the morning James made his amazing Blueberry French Toast bake and this year he added a crumble topping on it.

Friday night he made a delicious Pork Loin with Apple-Cranberry Chutney, Lemon Garlic Grilled Zucchini, Mushroom & Spinach Risotto and 2 pans of his famous Carrot Souffle.

Saturday afternoon we celebrated Mary Deatherage, the one who coordinates this whole event, for her MILLION Dollars in Sales Achievement.

Her team had been arranging this whole thing for months leading up to the retreat knowing she would reach it by then.

Of course we needed our group picture at the end.

We had a great group of cards to make. These beautiful fall and birthday cards were designed by Judi, Karen F, Amy and Becky.

These Christmas cards were designed by Janet, Charlene, Mary (a gift card holder YAY) and Tara. I got to work on other projects while I was there also.

Stampin’ Up! Oh My Fright for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning stamping friends, welcome to my fun fold Friday.   I hope you all had a great week and are looking forward to the weekend. For the next few days I’m doing something I don’t normally do, I’m using the same suite of products. I thought it would be fun to share some Halloween cards with you since Halloween is next month and there’s a limited time to make the cards.

Today’s card is one that I did on my YouTube Live yesterday. If you were able to join me, thank you for hopping on. If you’d like to watch the replay and stamp along, the measurements are on the bottom of this post along with the link to my video. Here’s my card for today.

Stampin' Up! Oh My Fright Fun Fold 1 creativestampingdesigns.com

I used the Stampin’ Up! Oh My Fright Bundle and Frightfully Fun Designer Series Paper for my book fold card.

Stampin' Up! Oh My Fright Fun Fold 2 creativestampingdesigns.com

Using the Oh My Fright Dies, cut the ghosts from a panel of Very Vanilla and the bats & swirls from a panel of Basic Black..

Stampin' Up! Oh My Fright Fun Fold 3 creativestampingdesigns.com

Adhere a small panel of Frightfully Fun DSP to a Basic Black mat. Adhere the layered panel between the scored card front. Wrap a piece of Black 3/8″ Iridescent Ribbon around the scored card front and tie a bow. Adhere the scored section together on the inside to make your book fold card. Adhere the larger panel of Frightfully Fun DSP to a Basic Black mat. Adhere the layered panel to the larger section of the Very Vanilla card base.

Stampin' Up! Oh My Fright Fun Fold 4 creativestampingdesigns.com

Adhere the die cut swirls to the 4 corners of the card front. Stamp the sentiment from the Oh My Fright stamp set in Versamark Ink on a panel of Basic Black. Sprinkle the sentiment with White Embossing Powder and set it with the Heat Tool. Cut the end of the sentiment into a banner with Detail Scissors. Adhere the sentiment to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Adhere the die cut ghosts in a circle to make a wreath. Adhere a few of the die cut bats with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a Adhesive-Backed Bat Ghost and Dots to the sentiment.

Stampin' Up! Oh My Fright Fun Fold 5 creativestampingdesigns.com

Stamp the sentiment from Oh My Fright stamp set in Black Ink on a panel of Very Vanilla. Stamp the ghost image from the Oh My Fright stamp set in Black Ink on the corners of the panel. Adhere the Very Vanilla panel to a Basic Black mat then to the inside of the Very Vanilla card base.

Stampin' Up! Oh My Fright Fun Fold 6 creativestampingdesigns.com

Decorate a Basic Whtie Medium Envelope to finish your card. Stamp the ghost image from the Oh My Fright stamp set in Black Ink on the envelope front. Adhere a panel of Frightfully Fun DSP to the envelope flap.

New Product Of The Month from Stampin’ Up! Available

The December Product of the Month is available and it’s beautiful. The True Blue Florals 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper is available for $5 with a qualifying order of $75 + before shipping & tax, but only while supplies last.

If you love exclusive products, you’re going to love Product of the Month, a promotion centered around a special product release every month!  The Product of the Month items are specially designed to be some of the best items Stampin’ Up! has to offer that aren’t available in any of our catalogs or our Online Exclusives.

The first Product of the Month is now available to order and it will be available while supplies last!!

Every month Stampin’ Up! will release a new item that is only available for purchase once per account. These items will be limited quantity and are likely to sell out quickly once they’re sold out, they’re gone for good! 

Here are the details:

  • Qualifying Amounts. 

You can purchase the Product of the Month item for only $5 when you spend $75 or more in a single order. Your cart total MUST be $75 or more at checkout to qualify. You cannot add the Product of the Month to your cart until you’ve reached the qualifying amount. If you use Stampin’ Rewards, coupons, or discount codes on your order and your cart amount falls below $75, you’ll need to add items in your cart to get the total at or above the qualifying amount again. If you reach the qualifying amount, add the Product of the Month to your cart, and the Product of the Month sells out before you’re able to check out, you won’t be able to complete your checkout until you remove the product from your cart.

  • Product of the Month Price. Currently the Product of the Month is only $5. 
  • Stampin’ Up! Account. To participate in Product of the Month, you MUST have a Stampin’ Up! account.
  • A New Product Every Month. Stampin’ Up! will release a new Product of the Month item every month. The Product of the Month items will be available at midnight sometime near the beginning of every month. Keep an eye out for the Product Of The Month to be announced and when the new Product of the Month item will be available. You will be able to view the newly released products on the Product of the Month page in the Online Store.
  • Product of the Month Purchasing Limit. The Product of the Month is limited to one month’s product per Stampin’ Up! account. Additionally, the Product of the Month items are only available while supplies last, so once they’re all sold out, they’re gone for good. 
  • Order Restrictions. All types of orders (as long as the person ordering has a Stampin’ Up! account), and phone orders all apply toward the qualifying amount for a single order. Starter Kit orders and gift orders do NOT apply toward the qualifying amount. You cannot qualify for the Product of the Month by making separate purchases that eventually amounts to $75 or more. The only way you can qualify for Product of the Month is with a single order that reaches the qualifying amount.
  • Canceled Orders. If you have an order with a Product of the Month included in it, and you decide to cancel the order, you WILL be able to re-qualify and re-purchase the Product of the Month as long as it’s still available.
  • Starter Kits. When someone orders a Starter Kit, the price of the kit will NOT count toward the qualifying amount to earn the Product of the Month. After purchasing a Starter Kit, your next order will begin to qualify for the Product of the Month.
  • Available Until Sold Out. Product of the Month products will be available until they’re sold out. Once they’re sold out, they won’t be available for purchase again. If you didn’t qualify to purchase the Product of the Month during the month it was first offered and it’s still available in the following months, you can purchase that product once you reach the qualifying amount. So, if you didn’t qualify in January but you qualify in February, you can choose to buy the January Product of the Month, provided it’s still available for purchase and you meet the qualifying amount. If you buy the January Product of the Month but still want the February Product of the Month, you’ll need to qualify again.

Here is a short video from Stampin’ Up! with a few of the details:
