2013 Holiday Catalog

Squeee!!!!  Can you hear the excitment?!  The 2013 Holiday Catalog is available for you to order from as of today!!!  Stampin' Up!  is always looking for new ways to show off their awesome products, and this holiday catalog has an EXTREMELY cool interactive feature that when downloaded, will allow you to watch videos about some of the products on your smart phone!  You can watch a video about this great feature by clicking HERE.

To get started:

  1. Go to the App Store or Google Play and download and install the FREE Layar app to your smartphone or tablet.
  2. Scan images that are tagged with the Stampin' Up! Interactive icon to unlock videos.
Supported devices: The Layar app will work on

  • iPhone 3GS and higher and iPad 2 and higher; requires iOS 5.1 or higher
  • Android devices running v2.2 or later
Things to know:

  • Different mobile devices will work differently with the Layar app. Some are faster than others, some will take more steps to load the videos, etc.
  • You need to hold your mobile device far enough from the page that the image is completely in the device's screen before the video will load.
  • Hold your device over the page until the video loads. Be patient-the video might take a while to load, depending on your device.
  • Most devices will start playing a video automatically, but some will have a play icon that you need to tap to start the video. And some won't show a play icon but will still require you to tap the screen on your device to start the video. So if a video doesn't start playing automatically, tap the play icon or screen of your device. (If you're using a Samsung Galaxy phone, you'll need to tap the box that appears on the screen to start the video.)
  • If you don't want to hold your device over the page for the duration of the video, just tap the video and then pull it away from the page-the video will keep playing. 
I will highlight some of my favorite products from the catalog soon, but in the meantime, check out this ADORABLE card I got from my talented sideline Sue Runge at Convention.  It's using a few different products now available in the Holiday Catalog--the Magnificent Maple image, an image from the Tags 4 You set, the Label Bracket Punch, Sweater Weather designer serires paper and 1 1/4" Burlap Ribbon.  Additionally from the Annual Catalog, Sue added two maple leaves from the Autumn Accents Bigz die, crumpled up and then flattened out to add some interest/texture.  LOVE this card!!!


I can't wait to start playing with all of the fun products/ideas in the new Holiday Catalog!  And if you want to see it in it's entirety online, feel free to visit my online store and select 'catalogs' under the product heading there!


Happy Stamping!
