Let me show you the cards I created with this set...

For my very first card I dis some inking to create my winter sky, stamped some trees and went over with white gel pen for the snow of trees, then I die cut the plate die, kept all the pieces together for my inlaid look. I used foam sheet for layering.To finish I added the snowman on top. 

For this one too I did in laid die cutting but added no dimension. I simple water colored a piece and used the positive to inlay into the negative tree die cut on kraft. Layered this with patterned papers to finish my card.  

These baubles called for a metallic and dimensional look. For that I cut the dies using gold foil card stock and also die cut foam sheet for adding dimension. To finish I added these with gold string on a patterned paper.

For my final card, I turned the snow angels into ornaments and gave the look as if they are hanging from the Christmas tree by stamping some pine needles along the top edge of wood grain patterned paper. I also embossed these with an embossing folder :)

Besides the new set I have used Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle dies , Vignette Tree Silhouettes Gone Postal, Clustered hearts dies, Holiday Expressions - Yuletide Cheer and Christmas Bell Medley

Let me show you the cards I created with this set...

I wanted to focus on the image and kept my design pretty simple. Took some patterned papers and taking cues from the striped colorful paper, I colored my reindeer. assembled it for a simple look.

For this one I was inspired by a color palette I saw and also did some color blocking technique with papers to make my base. I then heat embossed the deer in gold and embellished it with die cut flower and leaf, oh and yes I also did a splatter of gold :)

For my third card I did  some water coloring. and made a focal image, embellished with some twine and wood veneer trees :)

Final design is also Clean and simple. I stamped the image and sentiment in black, used some post-it notes for masking and inked the triangle representing a tree :) to finish I adhered a striped patterned paper. I have so many ideas in my head with this set, can't wait to share them in future :)

Besides the new set I have used Trendy Spring Bloom dies and Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle dies 

Hope you enjoyed it, don't forget to come back tomorrow for yet another new set :)
