Stampin’Up!’s Waterside Retreat Global Ink Collective Tutorial
Hello My Crafty Friends,
It’s time for our Global Ink Collective May Tutorial! I have a fun selection for you this month featuring the Waterside Retreat Suite Collection from the May–August 2026 Catalogue. This peaceful, nature-inspired suite is filled with serene waterside imagery, soft scenic patterns, and rustic textures that bring a sense of calm and escape to your cardmaking and scrapbooking.
Our team created projects that highlight the beauty and versatility of this suite. If you’re looking for tranquil color palettes, layered scenic elements, or inspiration for documenting outdoor memories, this hop is full of relaxing, creative ideas. Swipe through to see every project.
You will fall in love with this beautiful collection with 12 tutorials. The document is accompanied by a list of supplies used as well as measurements in metric and imperial. Some designers have chosen to use a detailed video and others provided step by step written instructions.
Here is a little sneak peek…
