Beautiful holiday designs are what you will see this year in the form of the new Designer Series Papers. The Holiday Catalog also has so much more but the DSP’s are just gorgeous. If you received a catalog and can’t really see them very well, take a look below at the video from Stampin’ Up! and you will get a better idea of how pretty they are.
Beautiful Holiday Designs Throughout the Catalog
I don’t know how many of them are on your list, but they are all on my list. All the papers are available in my online store along with all the other Holiday Catalog products. Did you notice the festive photography of the All is Bright DSP? The vibrancy and detail are almost so life like, you just want to touch it. The Christmas balls are so elegant and detailed. Similarly with the Santa’s Workshop DSP. I just love those little people. It’s almost like you have to smile and sing when you are crafting.
If you still have not received a Holiday Catalog, please contact me so we can get one sent out to you.
The holiday madness begins with the release of the Holiday catalog today. Yes, today is the day it goes live. I know you are as excited as I am and can’t wait to create your wishlist. It’s probably my second favorite time of year. While there is nothing wrong with another day to celebrate, I really enjoy the brisk weather and beautiful colors the Fall has to offer. First of all, there are so many new stamp sets, papers, accessories and embellishments to check out, it may take you a while to absorb it all and appreciate everything that is in this catalog. Due to the volume of products, it may take you a little longer than you think.
Holiday Madness Begins Today
Yes, it is time for that crazy time of year. No, not back to school shopping but another obession in the form of my to do list of holiday events. It’s not just about presents and days off. For me it’s also about cards and projects and decorating. Everything also has a deadline and it’s almost easy to fall behind if you don’t plan ahead and early. As a result, you certainly won’t get it all done without a plan. It’s a good thing kids go back to school, we need that time to prepare for the weeks and months ahead. I think I’m planning even more projects than I did last year. It’s easy with a catalog like this one because there are more suites and kits that all coordinate together. I love almost all the new products.
Furthermore, if you did not receive a catalog in the mail and would like one, please contact me to arrange getting a catalog sent to you. You can also visit my online store to see all the new products.
Bonus Days end today. I hope you have had great month earning your coupons for September. Stampin’ Up! had a good idea to make the Bonus Days the month before the Holiday Catalog came out. This way you can utilize the coupons with the Holiday Catalog. You still have some time to earn a $5 Bonus Days coupon for every $50 you spend (before shipping and tax). There is no limit to the amount of coupons you can earn so that means grab them while you can. You can order til 11:50 PM (MT) tonight.
Bonus Days End wtih a Bang
These coupons will come at a great time because as you know, starting next week the Holiday Catalog will be live. There are so many products to choose from in this new catalog. I’m excited to get started on my Halloween projects with the products from the Holiday Catalog. You can shop my online store with your coupons all month long.
Finally, remember that the coupons must be used by September 30th. Therefore, it’s a great way to kick off your holiday shopping with new stamp sets and accessories. As with every new catalog, there are also some new Bundles and Suites to choose from. If you received your catalog already, you know what I’m talking about. The anticipation of the Holiday Catalog always keeps me going and now I am even more excited about using my coupons. Furthermore, the Color Your Season products were an added bonus.

Happy Monday and it’s time for another CASE the Catalog. This week, in anticipation of the launch of the 12 Weeks of Christmas that starts later next month, I decided to create my version of the Christmas Pines sample on page 97 of the Annual Catalog. Also, keep in mind that the next few weeks will be consumed with holiday cards and projects. Our new Holiday Catalog is amazing. Lots of fun samples are coming. This sample is from the Annual Catalog because, well the Holiday Catalog doesn’t come out until September 5th. Enjoy
The Sheet Music stamp was used to create a custom background when inked with Crumb Cake and stamped onto a 5 1/4″ x 4″ piece of Whisper White cardstock. Finally, using the pine needles stamp from the Christmas Pines stamp set and Old Olive ink, stamp the upper left corner of the page. Furthermore, you can add color variation by stamping twice before re-inking the stamp.
CASE The Catalog
Here is “my version” – to create the look of an old piece of sheet music, tear small strip from all sides of the paper and lightly sponge the edges plus the lower portion of the page. Similarly to the catalog sample, I curled the edges slightly and adhered the page to the Crumb Cake cardstock base. Use Pretty Pines Thinlits Dies to cut the pine cones from Early Espresso cardstock and the leaves from Gold Foil. A bow of 1/4″ Copper Trim finished the look. Use the sentiment from the Christmas Pines stamp set and stamp using Mossy Meadow on Whisper White and cut using the Everyday Punch. A folded strip of 5/8″ Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon was placed under the sentiment to complete the card.
