Hello .
Â
I made it home late last night and… well… the newsletter didn’t quite happen when it was supposed to—so thank you for your patience with this slightly late edition. My heart is so full after an amazing time away, and my mind is absolutely buzzing with fresh ideas, inspiration, and all the beautiful things I can’t wait to share with you.Â
Â
The new catalogue, gorgeous new colours, and exciting
products are coming, and trust me… you’re going to love what’s ahead. Stay tuned.
Â
There’s a fresh spark of inspiration in the craft room this week… the kind that comes home tucked between ink pads, new ideas, and a suitcase that may or may not be slightly overfilled. After a wonderful few days away at convention, I’m back with a heart full of creativity and so many ideas I can’t wait to share with you.
Â
We’re diving into beautiful folds, layered textures, and designs that feel just a little extra special. And speaking of special… if crafting with a view of glaciers and ocean breezes sounds like a dream, my Alaska Crafting Cruise in May 2027 is already starting to fill. It’s going to be an unforgettable mix of creativity, connection, and adventure.
Â
So whether you’re here for a
quick dose of inspiration or ready to create alongside me, there’s something lovely waiting for you this week.

MONTHLY STAMPING CLUB
SPOTS OPEN NOW!
Â
I am currently looking for a few more stampers to join my Monthly Stamping Club, and I would
love to have you be part of it. Our club is a fun way to enjoy stamping together, try new products, and build your craft supplies a little at a time while creating beautiful cards each month.
Â
Club members place a minimum $35 order each month and receive the kits to make four cards along with tutorials for five different designs. If your order reaches $75 or more, you’ll receive a free upgrade to the Kits + Stuff option.Â
Â
If you live out of town, your kits are mailed to you at no extra charge so you can still participate from the comfort of your own craft room. For those attending in person, we enjoy stamping together along with a few treats and refreshments.
Â
There are also some fun extras along the way. Occasionally there are surprise gifts, each month one club member becomes the Hostess and
receives 15% off their entire order, and at the end of the year you’ll receive product credit that can be used on anything you’d like. It’s a wonderful way to stay creative, try new ideas, and enjoy stamping with friends.
Â
If this sounds like something you’d enjoy, click the link below to email me and grab your spot. I currently have only four openings available, so don’t wait too long if you’d like to join us. 💜
Â
Email me at gjmollet@shaw.ca and save your spot. The new club starts in April!

THIS HAPPENED LAST WEEK
IN MY CRAFT ROOM
Â
Tuesday, March 10 I went live at 7:30 pm (PT) and we created a beautiful double gate fold birthday card featuring the Nature’s Symphony bundle paired with the Painted Illusions Designer Series Paper. This interactive design opens from both sides like a little paper reveal, showcasing those rich painted textures, layered die-cut leaves, and a bold
focal sentiment. I walked through the construction step by step so you can recreate this fold with confidence in your own craft room.
Stampin' Up! Demonstrator sharing cards and other creations using exclusively Stampin' Up! products.
Wednesday, March 11 - 17, 2026 My Wednesday newsletter arrived bright and early at 8:00 am (PT), as always.
And then… a little plot twist from Mother Nature. I left home under a soft blanket of March snow. Just when we thought spring had arrived early, winter decided on one last encore.
Â
From there, I traded snowflakes for sunshine and headed to Long Beach, California for the Stampin’ Up! Convention. It was a wonderful few days filled with fresh inspiration, including a first look at the 2026–2028 In Colors, new catalogue products, and time spent connecting with fellow demonstrators.
Â
Between the creativity, training, and a few fun surprises along the way, it was the kind of event that fills your
cup right to the brim.
Â
While I was away, I took a short pause from live videos, but I did share some beautiful card inspiration over on my Facebook groups.
Â
By the time this reaches you, I’m back home, refreshed, inspired, and full of new ideas… and I can’t wait to start sharing them with you.
Â
THIS IS HAPPENING THIS WEEK
IN MY CRAFT ROOM
Â
Tuesday, March 17 Â
I was on my way home, so there was no live demonstration.
But I shared this fun card, and asked who would
love to see how to make it.
What do you think? Â Yes or No???
Â
Be sure to follow along on all my channels so you never miss a project.
Facebook Page: see each new card as it’s created
Tonight I’ll be back in the craft room sharing this beautiful card featuring the Lovely Arrangements bundle 💜 I’ll be live on my Facebook
Page, in my Group, and on YouTube starting around 7:30 pm PT (or just a little after… I have a family commitment, but I promise I’ll be there!).
Â
This one is such a pretty design with soft layers, bold contrast, and those gorgeous florals taking center stage—and I’ll walk you through exactly how to create it step-by-step. If you love elegant cards that look impressive but come together beautifully, you’re going to want to catch this
one. And of course, if you can’t join me live, the replay will be waiting for you 💜

Free Weekly Tutorial Just For You!
Love is in the air… and it’s been busy crafting something beautiful. This week’s tutorial features the Made with Love Suite Collection, where heartfelt stamps, coordinating dies, and
gorgeous Designer Series Paper come together like the perfect creative recipe. Add in a touch of texture with the embossing folder, a swirl of ribbon, and a sprinkle of embellishments, and you’ve got a card that feels just a little bit magical.
Â
The star of the show is a fun fold that’s as versatile as it is delightful. Dress it up for a celebration, keep it soft for a heartfelt note, or let it shine for just-because moments.
Â
Â
 I can’t wait to see what you create… be sure to share your cards in my Share-It Saturday post over in my Facebook VIP Group
Thank you, as always, for being part of this creative journey with me. Your support, your creativity, and the way you show up in this community means more than I can say.
Â
I’m so excited for everything ahead… new ideas, beautiful projects, and plenty of inspiration coming your way. Until then, I hope you find a little pocket of time to
create something that makes you smile.
