A monthly card making kit club is a company that provides you with a “kit” that is automatically delivered each month and includes everything you need to make handmade cards for that month’s theme. They usually include some or all of the following: cardstock, patterned paper, stamps, embellishments, inks, etc., all for one monthly fee.
This is a list of all of the monthly card making kit clubs that I am aware of and some of their details. I’ve provided a link to the websites so you can get more detailed information if you’d like.)
(Canadian Based Clubs are listed here.)
- Annie’s CardMaker Kit of the Month Club – Each month you will receive enough product to make 8-10 cards. The cost is $18.99 plus shipping (unclear as to the cost of shipping). According to their website, you can cancel at any time for any reason.
- Club Scrap Card Kit Clubs – This company offers two (2) different types of card kits each month. The first is called “Club Stamp” and the second is “Greetings to Go”. Let’s talk about Club Stamp first. The cost is $21.95 plus $7.95 shipping and each month you receive enough product to make 12 cards, including a stamp set. You can use the products included to create your own cards and projects.
With Greetings to Go, which is more of a “Cut, Fold, Assemble” type club, the cost is $15.75 plus $7.95 shipping and each month you receive 12 card bases and panels, cut-a-part greetings and images, enough product to assemble 12 cards. - Deena Ziegler Card Kits – Creative Cards Monthly Subscription – When you subscribe you get Free Shipping on your monthly kit and a 10% discount on all other products. The kit is $20.00 a month. Find out more here.
- Fun Stampers Journey Kit of the Month – This kit offers an exclusive stamp set, pre-cut elements, coordinating embellishments and step-by-step instructions each month for $24.95 plus shipping and tax. There is a 6 month commitment.
- Gina K Designs / Stamp TV – Gina K. Designs has the StampTV Kit and a new Mini Kit too! StampTV Kits are $59.95 and have two 6 x 8 stamps sets, card stock, a patterned paper pack, dies (or sometimes other items that coordinate) and comes in a storage box.
Our new Mini kit has a stamp sets, cards, envelopes, layering pieces, 6 ink cubes, an acrylic block and a tape runner, all for $39.00. - Hero Arts has a new monthly kit called “My Monthly Hero” which includes products such as a stamp set, ink pad, and other crafty goodies. Each month you visit their website and purchase the kit (they have a limited number of kits for sale) and they ship it to you. The cost is $34.99 and they offer “add-ons” for an additional costs.
- My Favorite Things – No subscription required, kits are sold each month and once they sell out, they are no longer available. However, approximately six weeks after the kit is released, the individual products will be available to purchase on their site. Kit Prices range from $54.99 to 64.99. With each kit you will receive a PDF file that includes a list of items included in the kit, as well as a variety of inspiring cards our team has created with the kit.
- Paper Wishes – Cardmakers Personal Shopper Subscription Boxes – For $19.99 plus $4.75 shipping each month, this kit includes enough product to make 10 cards. There are no long term commitments and you can cancel at anytime.
- Simon Says Stamp – SSS offers a monthly card kit for $24.95 a month. In my personal opinion the card kit is packed full of product for the price and you always get an exclusive SSS stamp set. The price for non subscribers is $29.95. You can cancel at anytime without penalty and you can skip a month if you don’t care for the kit.
- Spellbinders Maker’s Mart Card Kit of the Month Club – For $35.00 a month with FREE SHIPPING! There is enough product to complete ten cards with a minimum of 45 pieces per kit. There is a three month commitment which you can cancel at anytime. Each kit includes etched dies! Subscribers will receive a 25% off coupon each month to be used in the Spellbinders online store!
- Stampin’ Up Paper Pumpkin – This monthly “project” kit costs $19.95 including shipping fees. You can either purchase the kit each month with no commitment, or you can sign up for a 3, 6 or 12 months subscription. The only “downside” to this kit is that you don’t know what you are buying each month because there are no “previews” or photos of what the current month’s kit includes. It’s meant to be a “surprise” type of box. However, if you are a fan of Stampin’ Up’s products and project styles, chances are that you will probably like it.
You do not “need” a demonstrator in order to purchase the kit because you can always search the site for one when you are buying the kit. - Stamps of Life Card Kit – For $39.98 a month (including shipping in the US), you will receive enough product to create twelve (12) cards. There is a three (3) month commitment. Here is a video showcasing their kit club. They also offer monthly “stamp” and “die” clubs as well.
- Uniquely Creative Card Kits (Australian based club) – The Main kit retails for $49.95 and subscribers save 10% which bring them down to $45.95. Their kits are a real craft class in a box which include a professional instructions magazine induced with each kit.

Additional Kit Clubs
I have never purchased either of these kits, but Unity Stamps has 3 different kits each month and Studio Calico also has at least 3…
Thanks for doing this!
Thank you for this, Kat! I love these monthly clubs. I also belong to some monthly stamp clubs (no paper or embellishments), monthly die clubs and even one that offers a stencil. If you are interested info for a post on those, let me know.
Could you please tell me about the die clubs and stencils one.thanks lizgulliver27@gmail.com
I think studio calico offers a card type kit. Thank you for this list. My mom has been having a harder time getting out to craft or shop. I have been thinking of getting her a kit for Christmas.
Thank you! I will research it and add the information to my list!
Studio Calico has converted their card kit to a stationary kit. It comes with pre-made 1 layer greeting cards and 1-2 small embellishments.
Thanks, I’ll update this post with the new info asap.

Hi Kathleen! Thank you for including Hero Arts in your list! Just a quick update – the Hero Arts kits are typically $29.99. We only had one higher priced kit back in November. Thank you!!
Hi Kathleen!! Love this list and I recall that Technique Tuesday has several monthly kit options (http://www.techniquetuesday.com/category/Clubs.html) I have not personally bought any but they look interesting
Thank you! I will add those as soon as I have time!
U r simply amazing to do this info 4 all of Us! God bless you richly! Thanks ever so much! Pam Faulkner
How wonderful that you put this list together. Thank you ever so much.
Was looking for a list of kits and found this! PERFECT! Sparkle N Sprinkle has a monthly card club as well. Year Commitment, but can pass on kits if not interested and just extend the time. I have been in this club for 2 years and love it.
If you send me the info, I will add it to my list Amber
Thank you so much for putting this together! It is so helpful to those of us who live in areas with very limited craft supply store options. Darcie’s heart and home has a bi-monthly stamp kit.
Hi Kat,
I think Avocado Arts are no longer a crafting related website… Their sole illustrator and product developer, Lisa Hetrick, left the company to launch a new company, also non-crafting related.
But hey, I may be wrong. The link provided above now leads to an Android app making company.
Cheers!
Thanks!
Avocado Arts is no longer a crafting company. It is now an app making company. Just thought you should know (^_^)
Thanks!
We would love to be included! Gina K. Designs has StampTV Kit and our new Mini Kits too!
StampTV Kits are $59.95 and have two 6 x 8 stamps sets, card stock, a patterned paper pack, dies (or sometimes other items that coordinate) and comes in a storage box.
Our new Mini kit has a stamp sets, cards, envelopes, layering pieces, 6 ink cubes, an acrylic block and a tape runner, all for $39.00.
And forgive all my typos! I was thinking faster than I could type! LOL!
Hi, Gina K.!
Where can we find your StampTV Kits? I can only find your Mini Kit (Sentimental Bouquet) on your website. Thanks!
Oh, and I wish your ergonomic acrylic block was the with one that had grid lines on it
I was looking for a monthly kit to feed my craft addiction overseas – seems like the MayMay one ships internationally? Fantastic! Thanks for the help!
Hey, Kat!
Hero Arts just launched a subscription kit! Here is the link: http://heroarts.com/pages/subscribe
Hi Kat,
I’m interested in getting a subscription to one of these for a friend of mine who is an avid card maker. I myself don’t know anything about card marking or paper crafting. Is there a subscription you would recommend I get as a gift? Price is not a real issue, although I obviously want to get good value for my dollar
Thanks
Andrea
Hero Arts Monthly Kit is what I would get.
Scrapbook Generation has several monthly kit clubs including a card kit for $12.99. The card kit features newer paper company products. Gorgeous designs.
Technique Tuesday still has c,UBS but they call them auto ship programs where you get a stamp and die set. They have 3 that I know of: memory keepers, greenhouse and animal house.
Thank you for this listing of kits! I have been looking for this information for a long time. So glad I found your site!
I just a cute and pretty amazing kit from “Queen & Co.” Lots of good reviews.
There is a stamp club that offers a variety of vendors, rather than just one vendor. Does anyone know the named of that one? A lady at the last stamp convention in Columbia, SC told me, but I did not have anything to write the name with.
Thank you sooo much for this overview. Have you updated this since it was posted some time ago?
I have not updated it in quite awhile but it’s on my to do list
Unfortunately paper wishes no longer has their monthly clubs. They are reorganizing to go into an amazon marketplace.
The Hedgehog Hollow does a box for $39.99.
http://thehedgehoghollow.com/shop/
Paper wishes personal shopper card kits are gone now sadly
That was my favorite subscription kit. Thats how I found myself here I have the Paper Pumpkin kit but feel like there are less and less kits that make cards, about half of them now are just some type of craft project and I travel all over and sell at fairs wherever my boyfriend was sent for work. They can be really nice kits but I don’t know what to do with a lot of the craft projects after I make them though cause I don’t really know lots of people or it doesn’t fit in with the items I’m selling. I really appreciate the list though so I can find some kits that will work for me
A local small business in St. Charles MO does subscription boxes that are really awesome. The name of the company is The Paper Crate.
It is a great way to support small business and they are a lot of fun. There are instructions for 4 cards but you are able to make many more than that with all of the supplies. It generally has a pad of 6×6 paper, some stamps, ink, some kind of embellishments, card base, and so much more. This last one had Gina K inks and a stamp in it that was so cute. I really love this box and this store.
If you are ever in the St. Louis area, look up The Paper Crate in St. Charles MO. It is on Main Street St. Charles where it is cobblestone road and many, many small businesses.
I didn’t see them on the list so I thought I’d let you know that Pink and Main has a couple different options available. Here is a link: http://pinkandmain.com/subscriptions/
I haven’t subscribed to it, but they do look cute.
Great list, thank you for putting this together.
