Only 5 months to go...get them while you can.

You will probably think I am MAD to be posting Christmas card's and it's only July. Well the answer is yes I am mad, but I am also excited to be one of the lucky few who get to play with the new fabulous range of Christmas stamps, Christmas Embossing Folders and Christmas Dies from the festive little Elves at Crafter's Companion. So whilst the sun has been shinning and I have been sneezing with hayfever I've also managed to cover myself (and my craft room) in snow, glitter and all things festive.

Here is a sneeky look at what these fabulous new products have helped me create...

BREAKING NEWS . . . the dies are available to purchase today (2nd July 2013) from the Crafter's Companion website.

I used the Snowy Village die but cut into sections and layered to make the scene appear in a Christmas 

Bauble and used A TOP SECRET EMBOSSALICIOUS FOLDER - DETAILS LATER THIS WEEK to create the zig zag backdrop.

Used various dies to create a stepper card: Fir Trees, Lamp Post and Wrought Iron. Used A TOP SECRET EMBOSSALICIOUS FOLDER - DETAILS LATER THIS WEEK to create the raised spots on the white card.

Love this TOP SECRET EMBOSSALICIOUS FOLDER - DETAILS LATER THIS WEEK highlighted with guilding wax. Die cut 2 Ivy & 2 Holly coloured with Spectrum Noirs and decoupaged the leaves.

Cant get enough of this TOP SECRET EMBOSSALICIOUS FOLDER - DETAILS LATER THIS WEEK and the Ivy die that I just had to use them again, along with the Bow die.

Used another TOP SECRET EMBOSSALICIOUS FOLDER - DETAILS LATER THIS WEEK (yes again) as combines so well with the Snowflake dies.

Something a bit more simple and a bit more contemporary in colour and design. Love the Spruce Trees die and another TOP SECRET EMBOSSALICIOUS FOLDER - DETAILS LATER THIS WEEK and it  embosses so well even on foam sheets.

Another TOP SECRET EMBOSSALICIOUS FOLDER - DETAILS LATER THIS WEEK creates a gorgeous textured background. The flower made from the Rose (small & large) die, along with the Holly. Die cut the Snowflake and added some guilding flakes.

Embossed my patterned paper with A TOP SECRET EMBOSSALICIOUS  FOLDER - DETAILS LATER THIS WEEK and added the Holly die cuts.

Went for a slightly different colour theme. Used the Snowflake die in Centura Pearl and Vellum, both cut like a dream, set against the background made using a TOP SECRET EMBOSSALICIOUS FOLDER - DETAILS LATER THIS WEEK.

For my last of these samples I wanted to try and use as many of the new dies and folders as possible. Used Snowflake, Holly, Ivy, Spruce Trees, Rose (small & Large) dies, the Romantic Song Frame die and A TOP SECRET EMBOSSALICIOUS FOLDER - DETAILS LATER THIS WEEK to create this dimensional scrapbook page.

These new Christmas products from Crafter's Companion are truly amazing. The dies cut through the heaviest of glitter card with no problem, even the intricate detail in the Snowflake cut first time. I know it's a tad early but if you want your cards to stand out on the mantle piece then dont delay...hoo hoo hoo. Details of the new Christmas Embossalicious folders will be available later this week.
