Holiday mini catalog - First Samples

I was able to play a bit this week end with my preview items from the Stampin' Up! holiday mini catalog, which will be available to order from beginning Sept 1. This first sample used three new products.

It's a Wrap Holidays stamp set. This set includes candy wrappers for Halloween, Thanksgiving, St. Patrick's Day, Easter, Valentine's Day and Christmas, plus one general sentiment. It is a great addition to the It's a Wrap Occasions stamp set in the Big Catalog. I stamped with Cherry Cobbler ink on Avery labels and then attached the labels to the candy...fast and simple
Kraft Gift Box. Each year for the past several years Stampin' Up! has included a wonderful gift wrap item in it's Holiday Mini. This year's Kraft Gift box is ideal for gift cards or small items, like individually wrapped candies. It's make from food-safe material and it is the perfect size for cookies or small home-made baked goods like home-made fudge (hint, hint -- are you listening, Mom?).
Frostwood Lodge Designer Series Paper. I keep looking at this paper and just want to snuggle with it. It reminds me of a well-worn, soft, pair of flannel pajamas. The entire Frostwood Lodge product suite reminds me of all my fondest, old-fashion holiday memories. I can't wait to play with these items more! The bow is just strips of Designer Series Paper twisted and then held in place with an antique Brad. Click the photo for a larger view.
