Seven friends standing together taking a selfie — These incredible women started as crafty strangers and turned into lifelong friends, all thanks to Stampin’ Up! 💕

There’s something magical about gathering around a table covered in cardstock scraps, ink pads, and coffee cups that have definitely been reheated at least twice.

We just got back from a week-long crafting retreat with some of our dearest friends , women we never would have met if we hadn’t said yes to joining Stampin’ Up! And honestly? It’s wild to think how a simple love of paper, stamps, and sparkle turned into lifelong friendships, inside jokes, and belly laughs that still make our sides hurt.

These aren’t just “crafting buddies.” These are our people. The ones who cheer when your die-cut finally lines up just right. The ones who know that “one more project before bed” means you’ll be up until 2 a.m. The ones who’ve seen you through life’s highs and lows all while covered in glue dots and glitter.

If you’ve ever wished you had your people, the kind who “get it”, this is your sign.

Why We Joined (and Why You Should Too)

When we joined Stampin’ Up!, we thought we were signing up for craft supplies at a discount. What we actually signed up for was community, connection, and a whole lot of laughter.

Because crafting is more than making pretty things, it’s about making memories.

We’ve built friendships that span states and countries, shared retreats filled with glitter explosions, and found confidence and creativity we didn’t even know we had. You deserve that too.

So, What’s Stopping You?

If you’ve ever said,

“I wish I had more time to craft.” “I don’t feel creative enough.” “I’d love to meet other crafty women.”

This is your nudge from the universe (and from us). You’re not just joining a company, you’re joining a family of women who will lift you up, cheer you on, and probably enable you to buy more ribbon than you technically need. (Or paper, because we know you hoard it too)

And honestly? We wouldn’t have it any other way.

Final Thoughts

We know what you’re thinking,“This sounds amazing, but what’s the catch?” Here’s the truth: there isn’t one.

You can join for the discount, stay for the community, and leave whenever you want — no strings, no obligations, no awkward conversations. You get to choose how you want to experience Stampin’ Up!: whether that’s just snagging your favorite supplies at a sweet discount or diving into the fun of team events, challenges, and retreats.

This is your creative journey, we’re just here to cheer you on (and share our love of paper).

We’d love for you to join our community of stampers, a space filled with laughter, inspiration, and a whole lot of crafting chaos. There’s never any pressure to do more than you want. Just encouragement, creativity, and friendship waiting on the other side.

Yes, I’m Ready to Join!
