If you’ve been meaning to stock up on a few of your crafting essentials, this might be your sign to do it.

Stampin’ Up! has announced that due to rising production costs, global exchange rates, and supplier increases, some product prices will be going up with the release of the May–August 2026 Catalogue on May 5th.

They always approach these changes carefully, but there are a number of everyday items that will be affected — especially the ones many of us reach for all the time.

So today I wanted to give you a clear breakdown of what’s changing, along with a few suggestions on what might be worth adding to your cart before the increase.

What I Recommend Stocking Up On First

If you don’t want to comb through the full list, here are the items I’d personally look at first:

• Classic Ink Pads
  These are used on almost every project. A jump from $12.25 to $15 adds up quickly if you’re building your collection.
• Adhesives (Stampin’ Seal, Dimensionals, Glue, Glue Dots)
  These are the “use every single time” supplies. Even small increases make a difference over time.
• Basic White Note Cards & Envelopes
  A bigger jump here, so if you use these for quick cards or classes, definitely worth stocking up.
• Stampin’ Blends
  A small increase per pack, but noticeable if you’re collecting colours.
• Designer Series Paper (DSP)
  Not a huge jump, but if you have favourites on your list, now’s a great time to grab them.
