Stampin’ Up! 2026 Gift Guide: Holiday Gifts for Paper Crafters

Shopping for someone who makes their own cards, saves every family photo, or always has a project spread out on the kitchen table? The Stampin’ Up!® 2026 Gift Guide helps you choose a holiday gift based on what they actually enjoy making. And if a little something ends up on your own wish list, I’d call that a productive shopping trip. 😊

Start with a Gift Map

Stampin’ Up! made two printable decision charts. Start with card making or memory keeping, then follow the arrows to find a shopping category that fits. The questions dig into the fun details, like whether your friend loves a creative challenge or would rather sit down with a kit that has everything ready to go.

Once you land on a category, look for it on the Gift Guide shopping page. You can also skip straight to the category that sounds like your crafter.

For the Creative Enthusiast
Think of the crafter who looks at a card and immediately wants to figure out how it was made. Browse tools and supplies to try new techniques, add texture, and build those beautiful layers.

For the Simple Crafters
An easy-to-use kit or straightforward stamp set is a lovely choice for someone new to paper crafting or who likes to finish a project in one sitting. Think handmade cards without a whole afternoon of prep.

For Family Fun
Give a project you can make together. Pick something everyone can help with, like making a batch of gift tags around the kitchen table.

For the Memory Keepers
For the person who’s always taking the photos, look for scrapbooking supplies, albums, and embellishments. Pair your gift with a few printed photos from a favorite family day, and they’ll have a page idea ready to go.

Stocking Stuffers
Little things like ink, twine, embellishments, and handy tools are fun to tuck into a stocking. They’re also a sweet way to round out a craft kit or add a little surprise to a handmade gift.

The U.S. online guide runs October 13 through December 15, 2026, and featured items are available while supplies last. It’s a curated shopping guide. Individual items may be discounted through separate promotions, so check the store for current prices and availability.

If you’re shopping for a paper crafter and aren’t sure where to start, tell me what they like to make. I’m happy to help you narrow it down.

Happy stamping!
