I am back with one last look at some of the new products available from Stampin Up in their new Holiday Mini Catalog. If you missed my first review click here to check it out and my second review can be found here.

This catalog is filled with stamps, papers, die cuts, kits and embellishments to help you create the perfect cards, party decor and gift wrapping for the upcoming holiday seasons. You’ll find woodland style stamps and papers perfect for Fall, fun and spooky images for Halloween and Christmas and Winter designs that are cute, elegant and retro. There are also many new collections of Designer Series Papers with matching embellishments like washi tapes, wooden shapes, paper clips and ribbons. Several projects kits match up with stamp sets to create gift tags and home decor projects. You’ll also find Thinlits Dies and Embossing folders that work perfectly with many different stamp sets too.

For my first card I used the Festive Fireplace stamp set, which has lots of wonderful accessories to decorate a holiday fireplace and make some cute scenes. I colored everything with markers and used paper from the Merry Moments 6″x 6″ paper pack for the background.

Next I made a small accordion card using the words and winter trees from the Happy Scenes stamp set repeatedly across the card in green ink. I stamped the bear and bunny from the Thankful Forest Friends in brown and added a scarf and hat to each, in red from the Talented Trio stamp set (found in the regular Stampin’ Up catalog).  I accented the trees and ground with Dazzling Details glitter glue for a nice sparkle.

Lastly I made a group of tags using papers from Merry Moments 6″x 6″ paper pack with stamps from the Festive Fireplace set and words from the Happy Scenes set. The die cut shapes are from the Circle Card Thinlits dies and Circle Collection Framelits dies.

You can view and purchase all these fantastic newStampin’ Up products today by visiting their website or contact your local Stampin’ Up  demonstrator to place an order. If you don’t have a demostrator you can find one here.
