Everything You Need to Know About the October 2026 Stampin’ Up! Virtual Card Retreat

If you enjoy learning new card making techniques and having a complete collection of coordinated projects ready to create, there’s a special Stampin’ Up! event coming this October that you may want to put on your calendar. The 2026 Stampin’ Up! Virtual Card Retreat takes place October 1–2, leading into World Card Making Day on October 3, and includes 15 different technique-focused card projects.

Before we get into the details, I want to clarify how this particular retreat works. Stampin' Up! creates, hosts, and teaches the Virtual Card Retreat directly. I'm not personally running it. I’m happy to share the details with you so you can decide whether it’s an experience you’d enjoy, but Stampin’ Up! is responsible for the retreat content, instruction, schedule, private Facebook group, and overall event experience.

There is no separate registration fee or form to purchase. Instead, the 2026 October Card Retreat Kit (#170632) is your ticket to the event. It will be available beginning September 1, 2026 for $225 CAD, and your kit includes a personalized link for joining the private Facebook group where the retreat will take place. Stampin’ Up! will also provide preparation information ahead of time, and recordings will be available in the group after the live event. If you’re considering joining, ordering early is a good idea so your kit has plenty of time to arrive before October 1.
