🎀It's All About FREE - FREE Shipping, FREE Products, FREE Stuff In Your Starter Kit and A FREE Tutorial! 🎀
Published: Wed, 02/18/26
Here's all the information of what is happening In My Craft Room - Classes, Events, Sales and a Free Tutorial.....
Hello .
What a creative whirl this week has been. A cheerful splash of colour, layered in lush greenery and soft botanicals, explored a fun fold full of movement, and then… we changed course mid-creation and discovered something unexpectedly elegant.
I always love how a design can begin as one idea and gently evolve into something even better. That is the beauty of creating together. There is room to
experiment, to adjust, and sometimes to surprise ourselves. Whether you joined live, caught a replay, or simply followed along in the newsletter, thank you for being part of these moments in the craft room.
Stampin' Smiles,
Glenda

Did you
earn Bonus Days Coupons last month? It's time to redeem them on your next order and save! Don't forget that your coupons are only valid until February 28th.
Check your emails to make sure you have all of your coupon codes. You'll have received your code(s) in an email shortly after you placed any order between January 6th and February 2nd. Redeem them on any product order this month, even when you shop from the Last Chance category (but coupons cannot be applied to
Starter Kit orders). You can also use your coupons to save on month-to-month Paper Pumpkin™ subscriptions and new prepaid subscriptions.
Each individual coupon can only be used once, but there is no limit to the number of coupon codes you can redeem on an individual order, or during February overall. Simply copy and paste the coupon code into the box provided on the cart page of the Stampin' Up! online store and click 'apply' to redeem it on that order. If you are redeeming multiple
codes, just separate them by a space. You can also redeem your coupon codes on orders you place with me directly. Please just let me know how many coupons you wish to redeem and make sure I have the correct codes to use on your behalf.
You'll still earn Stampin' Rewards on orders where you redeem Bonus Days coupons; rewards are earned on your order total after any coupons have been redeemed. It is also your order total after redeeming coupons that allows you to qualify to purchase the
Product of the Month.
Save on your order when you shop online and redeem your Bonus Days Coupons. Remember that they expire at the end of this month!
February's Product of the Month
The brand-new Product of the Month for February is now available. Add it to your order for just $5 when you spend $100! You'll earn 10% in Stampin' Rewards too.

need to add more items to your cart to reach the qualifying total again.
Save this useful guide so you'll always know how to get your Product of the Month.
Product of the Month Reminders
Each monthly exclusive is a specially-designed product that isn't available in any of our catalogues or our Online Exclusives. Each month's release is available only while supplies last, so once it's sold out it's gone for good! You'll only be able to get one of each month's exclusive product. If a Product of the Month remains in stock after the month ends, you can order it in future months with a qualifying purchase, as long as you haven't already ordered
it. So if you didn't get December's exclusive DSP or January's must-have Fabulous
Sayings Photopolymer Stamp Set yet, you can choose either of those instead of February's new option, but only while supplies last.
You'll need to have a Stampin' Up! account to take advantage and claim your Product of the Month with your qualifying order. If you don't have an account, you can create one at stampinup.ca, or I can send you an
invitation. You have to reach the qualifying amount of $100 in a single order; you can't combine multiple orders of lower amounts to qualify.
Don't delay! February's Product of the Month, the Painted Illusions 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper, is only available while supplies
last.

THIS HAPPENED LAST WEEK
IN MY CRAFT ROOM
Tuesday, February 10 This live at 7:30pm (PT) we created a beautiful card using the Greenery Lane bundle paired with Nature Walk Designer Series Paper. This project focused on layered greenery, soft texture, and a clean layout that works wonderfully for birthdays, thank-you cards, and everyday moments. I shared tips for layering die cuts, balancing patterned
paper, and keeping the overall design cohesive without feeling busy.
Stampin' Up! Demonstrator sharing cards and other creations using exclusively Stampin' Up! products.
Wednesday, February 11 My Wednesday newsletter arrived bright and early as a fun midweek check-in, filled with creative inspiration and updates from the craft room.
I went live at 7:30pm (PT) and we created a Lovely Arrangements fun fold card using the coordinating Lovely Blossoms Designer Paper. This
design offers beautiful movement and dimension while maintaining a clean, elegant floral style. I walked through the layout step by step, sharing layering tips and showing how to bring the project together smoothly from start to finish.
Let's create this Lovely Arrangements fun fold card together. This design has wonderful movement and layers and is a great way to showcase patterned paper and florals. Grab your supplies if you're stamping along, or relax and watch. This project is great
for adding something a little different to…
Thursday, February 12 We gathered live at 6:30pm (PT) for the postponed Simply Beautiful Virtual Class, enjoying a relaxed and creative evening together. The focus was on timeless, beautiful projects designed to be enjoyed from the comfort of your craft room.
Monday, February 16 This video went live at 7:30pm (PT) when we created a handmade card using the Lovely Arrangements bundle. We actually changed up the original plan for this design as we were creating, and it evolved into a chic take on my first idea. With soft florals, gentle layering, and a timeless feel, this version came together beautifully and is perfect for
sending a heartfelt hello. I shared helpful tips along the way to show just how easily this bundle works for everyday cards you’ll reach for again and again.
In today's tutorial, I'm creating an elegant handmade thank you card using the Brushed With Beauty bundle from Stampin' Up! This design features soft ink blending over an embossed background, layered floral elements, and a clean layout that's easy to
recreate.
THIS IS HAPPENING THIS WEEK
IN MY CRAFT ROOM
Tuesday, February 17
Last night I was live in the craft room creating a fresh and cheerful birthday card using the Brushed With Beauty
bundle for card #5628, and I absolutely love how it came together. The layered die-cut greenery, soft florals, and that warm “just because… it’s your birthday!” sentiment give it such a happy, uplifting feel. It’s one of those designs you could easily switch up for different occasions just by changing the greeting. If you missed the live, don’t worry — you can watch the replay below and craft along with me whenever it works for you.
Be sure to follow along on all my channels so you never miss a project.
It's Wednesday and that means the Sunshine Club Seniors group at 10 am!
Tonight at 7:30 pm PT I’ll be live creating a Twisted Easel fun fold card using the Lovely Arrangements bundle and Lovely Blossoms designer paper for card #5689. This design has such a beautiful wow factor when it stands up, but it’s actually simpler than it looks once you understand the base. I’ll show you how to create the twisted easel structure, layer the florals for dimension, and keep everything balanced so it folds flat and stands perfectly. Join me
live if you can, or catch the replay afterward and try this elegant fun fold at your own pace. 💙
Thursday, February 19
This is one of the highlights of my Month, it's time for our Craft Room Stampers Team Stamping and Recognition Night! Want to join us? You can, just reach out and I will let you know how.
Saturday, February
21
The monthly Scrapbook Class is happening starting at 9 am. This month we are doing the Exploring Nature Scrapbooking Workshop Kit.
Sunday, February 22
Time for my monthly class with the Timberline Seniors Community! We always have so much fun, laughter and creativity together.
Monday, February 23 At 7:30 pm PT I’ll be live creating a bold and industrial-inspired fun fold card using the Gears & Textures bundle. I am taking a card I made using flowers - a definite feminine card - and turning it into a masculine one.
This one has such a strong, masculine feel with layered gears,
rich textures, and dimensional details that really make it stand out. I’ll walk you through the fun fold base, show you how to balance those heavier elements, and share tips for adding depth without overwhelming your layout. Join me live if you can, and if not, the replay will be ready for you to watch and stamp along anytime. 💙
