Jolly Jingles Day 1 Hop

Hi friends! Welcome to the first day of our November Release Spotlight Hops! Over the next three days the Divas and our November Guests will be sharing their first looks at two brand new sets and coordinating die sets that are releasing this Friday, November 4. Each day we're running a comment prize drawing to win the new products, so be sure to give a little shout out for each of the projects as you hop about. I'm the first stop along today's hop, so let's get to hopping.


Today's featured set is Jolly Jingles, a whimsical little holiday set perfect for little tags, gift card holders and cards.  I seriously had so much fun stamping with this set and the coordinating Winter Friends Die Set and it was hard to decide which project to share today!  I settled on this sweet little trio of gift card holders.


I love to gift cards for the holidays in little stamped creations and the images in this set were just screaming to be added to some fun little kraft envelopes I found hidden away in a drawer.  I stamped each image in black Versafine, then colored with Copics (or in the case of the trees just paper pieced with designer paper. I added bits of designer paper here and there and a smattering of the sweet little snowflakes in the set for background.


I did sneak in a little sentiment from tomorrow's set on the tree gift holder, but everything else is from Jolly Jingles.  Don't you just love those stockings?  Perfect for little elves!


Okay, that's all from me today.  I hope you have a fabulous time hopping along!  Next up on the hop is one of our three fabulous Guest Divas this month, Lee Ann Barrett.  Be sure to head on over to the Verve Blog today to read a little bit more about our guests!
