I heard from A LOT of you who have already registered for the Creativate Winter Retreat and my heart is happy and full! I am so glad you have enjoyed the past retreats and are excited to join the next one, Saturday, January 16, 2021.
If you’re attended in the past, tell me what you loved most about the retreats? Others want to know too!
If you haven’t registered yet, do it now! Want more info? You can read all the details below.
- This online retreat will take place in a private Facebook group on Saturday, January 16, 2021 beginning at 10am (Eastern Time).
- A schedule of the day’s events will be posted to the Facebook group so you can tune into the Live events, should you choose to do so.
- You will receive your email invitation to join the Retreat Facebook group page approximately 2 weeks before the event date. This email will include details on how to join the group page.
$45 Retreat registration includes:
- This full, one day, ONLINE event is filled with Facebook Lives and/or videos. If you can’t join Live, no problem! Once you join the group you will have access to view anything you’ve missed and watch at your convenience.
- There will be at 10+ different Facebook Live or video stamping demonstrations throughout the day! Immediately following the demonstration, we will share a written tutorial for the project(s) if you’d like to download and save them immediately. Note: all tutorial measurements will be in inches. We will not be able to convert Imperial to Metric for you but there are free online resources available by searching the internet.
- Your paid registration automatically includes your name in the PRIZE PATROL* drawings. No participation required!
- Approximately one week after the Retreat, you will receive an email with a link to every project tutorial and its corresponding video. Each tutorial will include a color photo of the project, a supply list, step-by-step directions and cutting dimensions.
*Due to customs and Stampin’ Up contracts, prizes cannot be shipped outside the U.S.
- How do I know what stamps I need? All the projects we’ve designed will allow you to use any stamps, inks and paper that you have. Be ready for lots of ideas!
- Will I be stamping WITH you? Everyone stamps at a different pace and with that in mind the demonstrations are not designed for you to stamp “along with us.” After each demonstration, a tutorial will be posted which include a list of supplies, cutting dimensions and step-by-step instructions. The projects can easily be substituted using what you have at home and will allow you to stamp at your convenience.
- Are you sharing projects you’ve shared before? No, these are brand new ideas! In fact, many of the projects have never been seen anywhere before because they were designed specifically with this retreat in mind.
- What if I am not available to watch on the day of the Live retreat? What if the time zone doesn’t work for me? Still register! You can watch the replays at any time. Approximately a week after the Retreat, you will receive an email with a link to download all the tutorials and video links.
- What if I’m not familiar with Facebook? We will provide a “how to” video with your event group invitation. Please keep in mind that the Creativate Team is not equipped to troubleshoot computer or mobile devices problems, teaching you how to navigate Facebook, how to download, upload photos, etc but we hope this ‘how to” video will answer your questions.
- I’m not on Facebook, can I still register? Yes! About a week after the retreat you will receive an email with all the tutorials and videos so you won’t miss anything!
- Will I miss out on Prize Patrol if I am not watching Live or don’t post my projects? Everyone who registers is entered into the drawings. Everyone has a chance to win!
- Can I join if I am a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator? Yes! We love sharing with other demonstrators! All are welcome!
- Can I join if I don’t live in the U.S.? Yes! However, you won’t be eligible to win prizes. Due to customs and contracts, prizes cannot be shipped outside the U.S.

This will be my third Creativate and I am excited it will be coming up soon. It is a very fun day filled with new creative card and project designs. These demonstrators are serious about giving us new designs and tips in a very upbeat, fun way. I love the camaraderie they have with each other and it spills over to us. Even though it is virtual, with all the comments, it feels like a community. One of them presents something every hour on the hour all day. I love devoting the day to all this inspiration and creativity. It is well worth the price of admission.
These retreats are the best. 5 very talented card makers sharing ideas. And it’s not just one card 3 each but lots of ideas and variations. So many great tips and techniques. I can’t think of a better way to spend a Saturday.
I so look forward to the Winter Creativate Retreat in January. I have been with you Connie and each of the other four since the beginning last year in the Spring. The work that all of you put towards these sessions are so appreciated. Thank you for each of your efforts. I tell everyone I know to not expect me to answer the phone or texts on those Saturdays. This is my time to be creative in my brain!! It is a delightful time Connie and well worth the day. Merry Christmas!!
What I love about your Creativate Retreats is that you do not require specific stamps to be used. It is the best of worlds when we know we can learn a new card layout or technique and use what we have. Sometimes it feels like its buy, buy, buy and we don’t use our stamp sets enough. Of course we’re gonna buy but ya’ll help us use what we own. Also, the gals are SOOOOO creative. We get lots of ideas for cardmaking! Love you all and your talents!
I have participated in all the Creativate retreats and will be there in January. I’ve enjoyed all the great card-making ideas. But most of all I’ve learned new techniques and tips to use your supplies and your time and effort wisely. There has even been an “oops” or two but these ladies show everyone can make a mistake and how to recover from it and not lose the work you’ve done. Learning is what it’s all about and learning from one another is the best! Thank you Creativate Team! Can’t wait for January!
All signed up, can’t wait! First time I have attended your Creative event.
Karen, you are going to have a blast!
I see it starts at 10 am. When should it be over?
Around 6pm PT-9pm ET
I’m thinking about it. Just hope you still have space when I have the money. Having a craft sale today and tomorrow.
Barbara, absolutely we will have space. Since it’s an online event, attendance has no limit. Good luck at your craft sale!!!
All signed up and excited to learn more! This will be my first time attending! ?
Wahoo! I am so excited to stamp with you live!
