Newton's Nook Designs Holiday Release - Christmas Trimmings and Holiday Lights + coordinating Dies, Ornaments & Light Strings Stencils

hello!

today is day 1 of Newton's Nook Designs Holiday release!

this release has totally got me in the mood for all things holidays and Christmas!! I just need South Carolina weather to catch up - it's so hot! ha!
oh how I love all of these new stamps, stencils and dies!! just wait until you see it all! but in the mean time, check out what we're working with today: Christmas Trimmings and Holiday Lights + coordinating Dies, Ornaments & Light Strings Stencils.
you can totally create a project life type spread, gift tags and, of course, cards! all of the new sets will be available for purchase on October 18th, right here! 

my first card uses the sweet little Holiday Lights stamp set!

I stamped and colored all of these lights with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers and then used the coordinating dies to die cut them out!

in the background, I used some white embossing paste and the Petite Snow Stencil to create a little bit of texture in the background!

once they were attached to the card, I used the Stickles to add some glitter to the lights!! LOOOVE that look!

my next card uses the sweet, adorable images from Christmas Trimmings!

I just love that holiday-theme and cute girl image!

I used Distress Inks in Chipped Sapphire, Mermaid Lagoon and Peacock Feathers to ink blend the sky, then used some (more) white embossing paste and the Petite Snow Stencil to add a little texture!

I couldn't resist a little bit of pink wash down the side!
