Hey there! My swaps are ready to go the P.O., so I'm sharing one of them with you today! yay!

The Holiday Catalog is CRAMMED FULL of so many fantastically fun and gorgeous products it's was almost impossible to decide what to order first! One thing I had no trouble deciding to get was the Cable Knit Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder! It's big, 6" x 6", thicker and heavier than our traditional folders, and takes a little bit of adaptation to use, but it's SO WORTH IT! Lookie:

I combined it with the Wrapped in Warmth stamp set from page 13 of the Holiday Catalog. Even more gorgeousness!

The Cable Knit Dynamic folder make such a deep impression, you need to spritz the card stock with water before you emboss to keep the paper from cracking!

I stamped the greeting twice, first with Garden Green to punch with the Decorative Label Punch, then with Cherry Cobbler to punch just the "Christmas" with the Classic Label Punch. I adhered the Cherry Cobbler  "Christmas" over the Garden Green one with SNAIL.

I used Cherry Cobbler ribbon from the 3/8" Silky Taffeta Ribbon Combo pack to help complete the "wrapped" theme.

The sweatery-textured  pine tree also came in Wrapped in Warmth. After stamping with Garden Green and cutting out with my snips, I added it with a dimensional. I also added rhinestones to the greeting for a bit of sparkle.

Inside I used the same stamping technique to easily add the Cherry Cobbler "CHRISTMAS"  to the Garden Green sentiment.

The majority of the products used today will be available to order on September 1st. Check out what's available right now in my online store: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net
