The brand-new Stampin’ Up! September–December 2026 Catalogue and Online Exclusives are officially here and there are so many fun new products to explore!
Whenever a new catalogue launches, it can be tempting to feel like you need all the things right away. But there are lots of different ways to enjoy all the new products depending on how you like to craft.
You can keep things simple with a few ready-to-use products, add a new tool or colouring option to your craft room, try the new Stampin’ Spots, or go all in with one of the beautiful new suites or the Hot Foil System!
In today’s Catalogue Launch Party video, I shared a mini catalogue tour, created two Christmas cards and counted down my Top 5 favourite products from the new release.
My Top 5 New Catalogue Favourites
1. Creative Celebrations Mix & Match Specialty Designer Series Paper
This paper is such a fun and easy place to begin your holiday crafting. You can use the designs as the main focus of your card or cut them apart and mix them into your other Christmas projects.
2. Festive Flecks Cards & Envelopes
Another great starting point! Use these cards and envelopes as they are for quick Christmas crafting, or cut them apart and use as DSP!
3. Gold Adhesive-Backed Dots
These are simple, classic and will go with almost everything this season, from your fall cards right through to Christmas!
4. Timeless Christmas Designer Series Paper
If you love traditional Christmas colours, this paper is for you. It has classic red and white patterns including plaids, polka dots, holly and the cutest little gingerbread designs.
5. Scalloped Christmas Cheer Bundle
This bundle includes classic Christmas sentiments along with dies that will be perfect for creating card fronts, tags and all kinds of festive projects.
A Few More Craft-Room Favourites
I also shared a few products that were available before today but will work beautifully with so many of the new catalogue products:
✨ The Hole Punch Assortment: 3 perfect punches that you’ll use for all kinds of cards, tags and packaging.
✨ Red & White Peppermints: quite possibly my favourite embellishment ever!
✨ Peaceful Pine Classic Stampin’ Pad: a beautiful Christmas green that is featured throughout several of this year’s Christmas papers. If Peaceful Pine isn’t already part of your ink collection, this is a great time to add it!
The Projects
For Day One of my Online Catalogue Launch Party, I created two Christmas cards while sharing my catalogue tour and Top 5 favourites.
These are the first two cards in this week’s special six-card Catalogue Sampler Free Class to Go! (Plus a little bonus tag idea for you)
Over the three days, we’ll make:
✨ Two Christmas cards from today’s catalogue tour
✨ Two fall cards on Wednesday
✨ Two more Christmas cards featuring different suites on Thursday
Join me live at 12 PM MT on September 1st, 2nd and 3rd—or catch the replays whenever you have time.
