hi hi hi!
i am so excited for this week!

today is day 1 of the Newton's Nook Designs November Release! woo!!




today, the whole DT is showcasing the super awesome Jolly Tags stamp and coordinating die set!! you'll see just how much fun these tags are to create with!! they're awesome!
you can totally use this to scrapbook, create a project life type spread, gift tags and, of course, cards! all of the new sets will be available for purchase on November 13th, right here!

for my first card, i decided to think outside the tag!




see what i did there? ha! 
i colored the santa image with copics and then fussy cut around him and made him the focal point of my card! so much fun!



for the background, i used some white embossing paste, and a cute Tim Holtz sweater-thing type stencil! i love the look of white on white!

my second project is an actual tag!


i used the die set to cut out the tag and the copic colored that cute cute cute snowman!! i LOVE him!! and those greens and blues rock for winter, especially with the pop of red!!



it could easily be popped onto the front of a card, or just kept as the adorable little tag that it is! :)
