Hi crafty friends! Happy Thanksgiving Week! I am sending love and wishing you and your families a wonderful holiday together! I can hardly believe it's time for turkey already. This year is going to finish up fast! I am looking forward to a quiet week at home with my family, staying cozy and watching Christmas movies and eating tooooo much! Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
Today is a VERY exciting day because I'm here to announce a NEW RELEASE from The Greetery! The last release of the year! The new release is called the Icing Collection - as in the icing on the cake! The new release is full of more holiday goodness and things for packaging and giving. So here's the deal - and it's good. Today, the design team is showing you everything! And guess what? Today you can BUY everything too! No need to wait until tomorrow! The new release will be available at 10am EST today! Yeah!
I will be sharing four new projects with you today! Lots of photos and inspiration. Let's get started!

My first card for today features the brand new Nordic Tree Die set! I combined it with the Warm and Cozy sentiments from the last new release. I created a clean and simple Christmas card with Dr. Suess colors and vibes! My finished card is an A2 white card base, layered with soft pink and vellum. I die cut the tree layers (there are three layers to create the tree) from green cardstock and then added white paint splatters and a bit of snow too! I finished it off by adding a pretty gold star and some enamel dot ornaments. The sentiment is heat embossed in white onto kraft cardstock. Classically Christmas! I love the details in the die cut - makes for a gorgeous tree.

My next card for today features the brand new Nordic Birds Dies and the brand new Crystal Charms Dies! Also featured are past favorites Joy and Pine Wisps! My finished card is an A2 kraft card base, layered in Christmas red, then a pretty arch to feature my design elements. I ink blended the top of the arch for a bit of warmth. My color palette is classic red and green for the holidays... I made it a bit rustic by using kraft paper also. I die cut all the pieces and added bits of sparkly glitter for a snowy feeling. My final touch was some red enamel dots.

My third card for today features the brand new Hey Honeycomb Penguin Dies! More cute additions to the Honeycomb product line! And also, just releasing today, white honeycombs! Wait until you see all of these!!! I kept my card cute and sweet! My card base is a white A2 card, layered with some Doodlebug plaid for a subtle background. I die cut a scallop panel and added icy blue ink blending... I used the new Hey Honeycomb Holiday stamp set for my sentiment. These are SOOOO fun to make!!

My final project for today features gift tags I made using the brand new Inside and Out Holiday Tags stamps, dies and stencils! I also used the brand new Ornamental Tags Dies. I love a soft color palette of pink, cream and gold... I do also love pretty pink packages! The stamp/die combo makes 8 tags at once, in a pretty, ornate shape! I stamped and heat embossed the stamp in gold embossing onto cream cardstock. I used the matching stencil to do ombre pink ink blending on the tags. I blended the ink only on the top of my tags... I splattered everything with white ink! I added some gold bows and classy pearls... The twine is natural with a bit of gold in it also.
That's it for today - and for the reveals of this awesome new release! I am quite sure you must be in the holiday mood now! Thanks for stopping by to share with me today! It's my pleasure to introduce the new release. Enjoy and happy crafting! XOXO

Yes I'm in a holiday mood now! I've made tags before for decorating stuff - even my own tree but never just to whip out a batch for presents. BUT now I will as they will be quick and easy but more importantly - gorgeous little reminders that I care for that person. Thank you so much.
