Newton's Nook Designs Holiday Release Day 2 - Beautiful Baubles + Coordinating Die and Pines & Holly Die

it's Tuesday, and that means it's day 2 of the epic Holiday release extravaganza for Newton's Nook Designs!


I am not kidding when I tell you that the sets this month are AMAZING!!! I can't wait for everyone to see the whole release! 
today the whole team is showing off Beautiful Baubles + Coordinating Die and Pines & Holly Die! the ornaments are another set in the quilling series, and jsut as GORGEOUS as the rest! And the Holly Die is SO CUTE! 
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 October 28th, right here!

my first card uses (almost!) traditional Christnas colors!


i really love this set!! the designs in each ornament are so unique and SO easy to color!! i watercolored all of the ornaments for both cards with Distress Markers, and then splattered some acrylic white paint on top! 


i die cut the ornaments with the coordinating dies and then heat embossed the sentiment onto some black cardstock! used a bunch of the ornaments with a VERY light grey on the background of the card - LOOOOOOVE how subtle and pretty that looks! 

my second card is just uses summer colors! ha!


i looooove pinks, oranges and yellows together! and i LOVE the warmth and glow they bring to this ornament!


i watercolored with Distress Markers onto some scrap packaging, spritzed with water and pressed it onto my card front! once it was dry, i stamped the sentiment in a circle around the area! 

my last card features the Holly Die!


i die cut everything from white cardstock and then added color with Distress Inks and water! i love the watercolor look on the die cuts!


my card base is white woodgrain and i LOVE the texture with this die set! i popped up the bow and then added some cream enamel dots! such a sweet and simple, but pretty card! i added some sparkle to the pine cones, i LOVE that it's glittery, but also looks like it could be sugar-y snow!
