Continuing the countdown….3 more days to order from the Holiday Catalog. The Designer Papers have been very popular this year. At convention we learned how the designers at Stampin’ Up! create the papers. Many are original hand painted or drawn designs. Now that the holidays are over you don’t have to stop using the pretty paper. Many of the patterns are general enough that they can be used for other things like Birthday cards! Any print that isn’t holiday specific would work. And often when one side is holiday specific the other side is not. Here are a couple of ideas for you.
These are the Holiday catalog items I used on this card:
Into the Woods Designer Series Paper pg. 43 (On Sale)
Into the Woods 3/8″ Cotton Ribbon pg. 43 (On Sale)
And here is another:
This one used the Season of Cheer Designer Series Paper. Unfortunately this paper is already sold out. The ribbon on this card is Hello Honey 3/8″ Satin Stitched Ribbon is part of the Year End Sale.
Take a look at your Designer Papers and see if you can make a stack of birthday or thank you cards from something that you thought was just for Halloween, Fall or Christmas.
Here is a video from Stampin’ Up! showing you how some of the Holiday paper were created. If you here a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator say DSP that stands for Designer Series Paper.
The two cards were the same I just switched the Designer Paper and ribbon and used matching card stock. These are supplies for the Into the Woods version:
Happy New Year! I’m still counting down the last few days of the Stampin’ Up! Holiday catalog. Only 4 more days. Today I have two cards to share with you – one a Christmas card but the other is a New Year’s card. It’s actually the exact same card – all I did was change the words.

I hope you are enjoying your day and you are ready for 2016! I have a new planner that I’m using and hope that it keeps me on top of my Stampin’ Up! business and my personal life too. Now to remember to write 2016 instead of 2015.
There are only 4 more days of the Year End Sale – January 4th is the last day. Here is the full list of supplies for these two cards- click on any item to go to my online store and place your order.
Here is a quick card using some Holiday catalog products:
There is really only one Holiday catalog product on this card and it’s the Home for Christmas Designer Paper. So many prints in the pack where the images made great focal points. The poinsettias, the reindeer, the trees, the Santa’s. You could use any of those as the focal point on this design – either by just cutting with the circle dies (or punch) or fussy cutting the image and adding to the circle.
Sadly I just checked and this paper pack has already sold out! Darn it. You could use the Reason for the Season stamp set and create a similar card to this.
Here is the full supply list for this card – click on an item to go to my online store. Don’t miss the Year End sale.
While we are counting down the days to the end of the Holiday Catalog – I don’t think I shared the rest of my Christmas Countdown that I made with the Hello December Project Life Accessory Pack. There are 6 days left to order from the Holiday Catalog – and you could order the Hello December Project Life Kit and complete this project for next December!
