September Diva Blog Hop--Holiday Catalog

How is it possible that it's already Diva Blog Hop time for the month?!  If you're joining me from Amy's Blog, I'm the last stop for today.  If you just started here, feel free to head to Sue's Blog and start from the beginning to hop thru all the sites!

Today's theme is the Holiday Catalog.  I LOVE all of the catalogs that Stampin' Up! publishes, and there are SOOOOOO many things that I fell in love with from this one when it was revealed at Convention this past summer!!  Today, though, I'm going to 'mainly' focus on the My Digital Studio Downloads that were featured in it!!

I think it's safe to say that when the Nordic Village Designer Templates were shown up on the screen at Convention, I got a little excited.  As SOON as they became available for me to order, I had them purchased/downloaded and was printing them off.  I did have to adjust a couple little things in order to print the items on my printer at home, but they were super easy to cut out!  I then used Sticky Strip to attach the sides/bottom of each 'house'.  Because they're paper, I'm not going to use 'real' tea lights in them, but will place an LED light in each one when I display them!!


Now, as soon as I got these houses done--I KNEW I needed to create a 'Halloween' version of the village (basically just changed colors, and added, a ghost, bat & cat), and am looking forward to having these out in a couple of weeks:


Moving on to the Halloween Bites Designer Templates, I had a lot of fun making the vampire-wrapped candy bar and coffin, or even just the simple 'bat wrap'.  I added some green neon shredded paper for the vampire to lay in, which was the 'perfect' final touch!!



I LOVE the All Is Calm Party Ensemble--and you can use it to decorate for your Christmas or New Year's parties (or both!).  This ensemble includes a banner, favors (LOVE the crackers--I haven't made them yet, but am looking forward to doing so!!), invitations, thank you notes & more!


And finally, the Annual Report Postcard Template.  This download is PERFECT for letting everyone know the highlights of your year and a quick/easy double-sided layout to just drop in your photos and add your text!


But wait!!  Those 'might' be the only items that were specifically highlighted in the Holiday Catalog, but there are a few more digital downloads that came out at the beginning of the month that happen to be the digital versions of some of the other items in the Holiday Catalog.  Who doesn't already love the For All Things Stamp Brush set, and the coordinating Color Me Autumn Designer Series Paper?!



The Holiday Home stamp brush set can cover all of your fall/winter holidays (or even new home congratulations!).


And for the Project Life lovers, there is the Holiday Cheer stamp brush set and the Seasonal Snapshot Digital Project Life Cards!

I hope you've enjoyed checking out all of the great posts about the Holiday Catalog that the ladies shared today!!  And for quick reference, here are the sites that are hopping today:
Happy Hopping!!
