It’s Sunday, and time to play with The Paper Players! The sweet and lovely Nance Leedy has a delectable color combination for us: Pool Party, Cherry Cobbler, Any Neutral. My pick was Crumb Cake. Why does it seem I always pick the colors named after food? Since I still need Christmas cards, I decided to use the adorable Scentsational Season stamp set and pair it up with two NEW Textured Impression Embossing Folders from the Spring Catalog: Honeycomb and Needlepoint Border. I hope you enjoy this little trio of Scentsational Trees!
The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips: Quick and Cute
This card measures 5-1/2″ wide x 4-1/4″ long.
- Pool Party Trees! A trio of Scentsational Season Trees are created in the wink of an eye! No paper snipping necessary when you use the coordinating Holiday Collection Framelits!
- New Product Preview: Honeycomb! How do I love thee? Let me count the ways! When paired with Core’dinations card stock, the new Honeycomb Textured Impressions Embossing Folder adds deep texture in a flash!
- New Product Preview: Needlepoint Border! Finally there is help for the sewing impaired, like me! This cute little cross-stitch border can be added in seconds with the new Needlepoint Border Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. Don’t you love it?
I hope you enjoyed the peek at these new embossing folders. They definitely get two thumbs up from me! What do you think of them? Won’t you let me know in today’s comment?

Absolutely fabulous Ann!! LOVE that honeycomb background, and the Pool Party trees really pop against the Cherry Cobbler. That embossed stitching along the bottom edge looks so sweet as well!
Ann, the hexagon folder is perfect as a backdrop to your trees. I would never have been brave enough to stamp the trees in Pool Party – so thanks for inspiring me to go outside of my comfort zone. Awesome card.

Thanks for the sneak peeks. I use am embossing folder on almost all my cards, so something new is very exciting. They both look fantastic for some added texture. Very lovely card–have a great week. Brr–how about that temp drop. Dar
How sweet, I adore your pool party trees! Love seeing the new EF, cant wait to get mine! Fantastic layout, great job with the colors!
So pretty, and I love the splash of Pool Party on there!
Eekkkk! You have the new pre-order stuff!!! Mine *might* be arriving today….the mail is SO SLOW this time of year and I don’t get tracking info. Fingers crossed!
Love the festive trio of trees Ann! That hexagon embossing folder is pure awesome-sauce! I have a feeling that one will be used a LOT! Love it! ๐
Love how you mixed in new products for a holiday card, Anne, and the colors are awesome.
So pretty Ann, I can hardly wait to get my order tomorrow. Love the look of the honeycomb EF on the core-dinations paper. The Pool Party trees are beautiful
Oh yes, these are really good embossing folders. This is the first post i have seen of any of the new products.
I have to say that when I first looked at this folder in the Spring catty, I wondered why they gave us an EF with chicken wire…now I see that this is more of a hexagon shape…and thanks to you I just may buy this one (think I have every other one they have made!)….your card is wonderful and this background is really lovely! Thanks for sharing the sample.
So cute, Ann! Love that embossing folder and can’t wait to try it out. My order comes in tomorrow! I do love these colors.
Very cute, Ann! I especially like the honeycomb embossing on the Core’dinations card stock and the Needlepoint embossing border. Very bright and cheery design!
Love the sweet trio of trees & those fabulous banners, Ann! As for the new products – can’t wait… ๐
What happy little trees! It is a great card!
Oh, I am loving these new products…I am such a procrastinator, I haven’t decided on what I want yet! Love your trees and little banners, too!
Fun card! Wait, no pearls? Who would have thought pool party for trees! Looks pretty festive to me! I think the cross stitch border was made for me – I love it! The rich background with the honeycomb is bee-utiful! Sorry, just had to stick that in!
