Weekend Stamp-a-Stack Recap – So Much Fun


What a wonderful weekend of stamping fun!  I hosted two Stamp Stack sessions—one Friday night and another on Saturday—and both were full of laughter, creativity, and great company. It’s always a joy to gather with friends (new and returning!) and spend time making something beautiful together.

We created eight cards total—two of each of four different designs—so everyone went home with a nice stash ready to mail. I love offering a wide variety of greeting stamps, so each person can personalize their cards for birthdays, thank yous, thinking of you, sympathy, or whatever they need most. It’s always fun to see the unique combinations everyone comes up with!

If you missed out, don’t worry! I’ve got tutorials to help you create some of these cards at home:

🎥 "Just a Note" Fun Fold Card – Facebook Live Replay

🎥 Extraordinary Flora Card – Facebook Live Replay
Catch the tutorial here!

I love how each card turned out, and it’s even better knowing they’ll be sent out to brighten someone’s day. 💌

Thank you to everyone who joined me—I can’t wait to stamp with you again soon!

Until then, keep sharing kindness—one card at a time.
