SIMON GALLERIES:

Did you know Simon has card galleries for each of their releases and their card kits, and even a video gallery? It's true, and you can add YOUR VERY OWN CARDS AND PROJECTS to these galleries! Here's a link to all the Simon Brand Galleries, and here's the link to the new, And Everything Nice gallery. There is so much inspiration to see! I encourage you to check them out and add your own cards/projects as well!

MY CARDS:

My first card showcases the Warm Mug die and stencil set. Some pink mittens, a hint of a teal sweater and a warm latte? Yes please! And that wonderful sentiment is from the Stacked Holiday Sentiments set. It's a must have!

Up next is a card I created using the adorable, Cozy in the Cold stamp set. I adore the sweet images in this set! I decided to make a clean and simple card, coloring the stamped image with Copics on kraft cardstock. And what is Christmas without a little sparkle?!

Here are a couple of tags I made using the Rounded Tags die set and the Magical Mistletoe die set. Two, very different looks.

For my last card, I used the beautiful, Branching Holly embossing Folder. I used my Copics again to color the embossed image and added a bit of sparkle to the berries. The sentiment is another one from the Stacked Holiday Sentiments set.

Okay, that's it from me. I hope I've given you some inspiration for using a few of the products from this fantastic release! Enjoy the rest of the hop and don't forget to stop by Simon's blog tomorrow for day 2 of the hop!

Thank you so much for stopping by!
