Hey y’all! Today, demonstrators can preorder the July Online Exclusives releases from Stampin’ Up! and wow…there are SO many fun new products! There’s a frightfully fun Halloween suite that I cannot wait to get my hands on. If you love getting a jump start on seasonal crafting, this release is going to make your crafty heart so happy. There’s even a holiday suite that is sure to catch your eye and have you dreaming about holiday crafting already!
The preorder also includes the brand-new Detail Scissors, which look amazing for fine cuts and all those little detailed touches we paper crafters love. Customer ordering begins July 1st! (Note: you will not be able to view the new products unless you are signed in as a demonstrator.)
And honestly, this makes now the perfect time to become a demonstrator. When you join Stampin’ Up!, you can add brand-new preorder products right into your Starter Kit and start creating with them right away. Plus, through the end of the month, there is a super Starter Kit Offer where you can add all of the 2026–2028 In Color Ink Pads to your kit FREE. Between the early access, discounts, community, and creative inspiration, it’s such a fun time to jump in.
There’s also still time to register for Creativity Now, but don’t wait too long because registration closes May 26! This demonstrator-only virtual event includes a FREE exclusive stamp set with registration, early access to order featured products, tons of creative inspiration, and a fun afternoon of crafting together on August 8 at 3:00 p.m. (CT). If you love learning new techniques and crafting alongside other creative people, this is such a fun event to be part of.
And before I go, don’t forget about my upcoming Friday Night Sip & Kit Class! We’ll be creating with the adorable Pretty Party Kit, relaxing, crafting together, and enjoying a fun creative evening. Whether you’re coming with friends or just treating yourself to a crafty night out, I would absolutely love to have you join us. Registration deadline is May 29, so be sure to grab your seat before it fills up!

This month, the team is shining the spotlight on the Relaxing Waterside Bundle—and it’s every bit as peaceful and inviting as it sounds. Think calm waterfront scenes, gentle textures, and those cozy Adirondack chairs that make you want to sit and stay awhile. It’s perfect for masculine cards for Father’s Day or relaxed, everyday designs with an easy coastal feel. During May when you place any order through my ONLINE STORE, you’ll receive a FREE Relaxing Waterside Online Class PDF as a small thank you. It’s filled with creative ideas and step-by-step inspiration—and I just know you’re going to love creating with it!
