Paper Pretties has new Holiday Stamps!

Today is the day of releases!! Be sure to scroll down after finishing this post to see my new LaLa Land Crafts release as well!!

If you've just arrived from Jackie's blog and her gorgeous Holiday Fairy Meg card, you're in the right spot for some more Paper Pretties new release goodness! If not, then head on back to the Paper Pretties blog so you don't miss out on anything! There are some fabulous stamps in this release, and I know you'll love them! I get to share with you a card I made with the new O Christmas Tree set.

I used this week's Monday Mojo sketch (she's already up to # 160 - amaszing isn't it?) for my layout...and I went a little out of my comfort zone with lots of glitter, embossing, techniques, and embellies. I first embossed the beautiful swirly tree with gold embossing powder on my artichoke cs, then I painted inside it with some bleach (I must love you all, because I HATE bleach!!) I added some rhinestones which I had colored with a copic marker (that is SOOO cool!) and then I stamped the star with my glue pad and adhered some gold glass glitter. I then folded up part of the white cs to look like a snowdrift and covered that with white glass glitter.

To keep with the sketch, I added the 2 white brads, and then to be different I added the sentiment near the bottom. I used soem basic grey paper (I forget which collection, but I'm sure Allison could tell me!) and some red cardstock on top of gold. I have to say this set is lots of fun to work with, and I can't wait to see what YOU all come up with!

For this release, Heather is once again giving away one each of the 7 new sets.

Now keep on hoping to Jane's blog to see what amazing things she's created to share with us all, and tell her I said "hi!"
