Today I’m highlighting a bundle from page 31 in the new Holiday catalog: the Reason for the Season stamp set and the Festive Flower Builder Punch. The stamp set includes a three step poinsettia, three different sentiments, and images for the punched shapes.
I’m also using Home for Christmas Designer Series Paper and Gold Cording Trim from the new Holiday catalog. I wrapped a Take Out Box with the DSP and glued the poinsettia to it. Then I tied the tag on with the trim.
Note: I cut a 4″ x 12″ piece of DSP and it didn’t quite reach all the way around the box. So I cut a 4″ x 2″ piece to extend the belly band. The ends of the longer piece over lap the smaller piece on the bottom of the box.
I stamped the sentiment in Rose Red on Very Vanilla card stock, then cut it with the Note Tag Punch. I used the 1/8″ Circle Punch for the hole.
To build the flower, I punched a 1-3/8″ circle of Rose Red card stock and glued the first layer of petals to it. To give it dimension, I bent each petal in half, and used a Stampin’ Dimensional between the layers.
For the center of the flower, I first punched of the punch’s three center pieces in Hello Honey. I then punched a bunch of 1/8″ circles in Very Vanilla and glued them to the center.

Here are the current products I used:

Can’t wait for my punch to get here. I never would have thought to use Rose Red instead of Real Red or Cherry Cobbler, but it is beautiful. That’s why I have to pay attention to people like you who think outside the box.
