5 Stocking Stuffer Ideas for Crafters

Are you looking to stuff the stocking for your favorite paper crafter? Here are 5 great products that are perfect for your card making friends. (Or yourself...) 

Don't forget, if you'd like to be sure you receive your Stampin' Up! products before Christmas, order by December 9. 

So, on y go! Let's check out these fun crafting extras.

1. Watercolor Pencils

Watercolor pencils are magical! Simply stamp an outline image with a waterproof ink pad and color it in with the pencils. There is no need to be perfect with your coloring or to color every little bit. I scribble in my images! Then, using a blender pen or water painter, color over image. (Kind of like the magic water coloring books you had as a kid.) The color will blend together and become more vibrant. It's so much fun. Since there is virtually no mess, it's great for traveling, sitting in front of the tv, or for kids!

2. Water Painters

These Water Painters come in a three-pack with a small, medium, and wide brush tip. Simply fill the barrel with water and use them like a paintbrush. You can dip them in ink from a re-inker or ink pad to color in images or create a wash background. Or, use them to color over the watercolor pencils. Since the water is contained in the pen, there is no need for a glass of rinse water that the cat might tip over!

3. Take Your Pick Tool

This multi-purpose tool comes in handy in so many situations! One end has a putty tip (kind of like poster putty) that you can use to pick up and hold small items. The other end has a flat paddle for doing a little scraping, picking up images from your Cricut, or holding things in place. The paddle tip flips over to a piercing tool. This is the end I use the most! It's great for poking out bits of die-cuts, picking up self-adhesive sequins, or pulling the backs off of Stampin' Dimensionals. You can also get an additional brush end that works fabulously to extract intricate die-cuts.

4. Paper Snips

I know, everyone has scissors already. But, these Paper Snips are super sharp with a pointy end that is great for fussy-cutting in tight spaces. If your favorite crafter doesn't already have a pair, they will love them! If they do have a pair already, they will be excited for a shiny new pair to have as an extra or to replace old ones.

5. Wink of Stella Glitter Brush Marker

Do you love the look of glitter but hate the mess? The Wink of Stella Glitter Brush is the perfect solution! Brush on a fine layer of clear sparkly liquid with this marker. The glitter stays in place and creates a fine sheen on your image. This is another perfect low-mess stocking stuffer for your favorite crafter!
