Everything You Need to Know About Stampin’ Up’s! Virtual Album Retreat 2025
A Letter to My Fellow Memory Keepers
There's something magical that happens when scrapbookers gather together – that spark of inspiration, the gentle hum of creativity, and the sweet satisfaction of turning ordinary moments into treasured keepsakes. I've been thinking about you, my crafting friends, and I couldn't wait to share something that's going to fill your creative cup to overflowing.
Stampin' Up! is hosting their very first Virtual Album Retreat this July, and my heart is already full just imagining all of us crafting side by side, even though we'll be in our own cozy creative spaces. From July 16-18, you can spend three beautiful days together creating 12 scrapbook spreads that tell the story of an entire year – one month at a time.
The Month by Month Album Retreat 2025 kit has been thoughtfully designed with everything you need to create something truly meaningful. When I think about the exclusive stamp sets, the carefully chosen papers, and all those perfect little embellishments waiting to bring your pages to life, I get that familiar flutter of excitement that only comes with a really special project. You can order the kit starting May 28, 2025; *available while supplies last.

Once you’ve finished making all your spreads, you can put them in an album you have on hand, or consider purchasing either the 1-1/2" Post 12" x 12" (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Album (166515) or the D-Ring 12" x 12" (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Album (166516).
