Holiday mini preview - Christmas Lodge

Continuing the preview of new products from the Stampin' Up! Holiday mini catalog--available for ordering Sept 1--here is a sample of the Christmas Lodge stamp set. I'm again using the Frostwood Lodge Designer Series Paper. For the candy I'm using the It's a Wrap Holidays.

Card recipe:

Stamp: Christmas Lodge
Paper: Frostwood Lodge, Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White
Ink: Cherry Cobbler, Early Espresso
Accessories: Top Note Die, Big Shot, Early Espresso Satin Ribbon (retired -- sooo glad I stocked up at the end of last season. You can substitute Chocolate Chip Satin Ribbon)

Below is a photo of the gift box and It's a Wrap Holidays candies, samples I previewed in yesterday's post. Together the card and gift box of candies would make a great little holiday gift for a friend or co-worker.

See yesterday's post for details about the gift box and candy.
