Up today, I am showcasing another new stamp & die set that I have used on a few cards this week already, the Jolly & Joyful Sentiment stamp & Christmas Bits die set!
I love the little tree image in this stamp set (and there's a tree die to match!). I stamped the tree repeatedly and then added some fun chunky glitter below. The sentiment is from a previously released set, Winter Greetings. And that bow...ahhhh, so cute! It is also a previously released die, Bow Die Mini. I die cut it from white glitter paper.
When I make Christmas cards, I tend to like to use non-traditional Christmas colors.
For this card, I started with my pink base and added the sentiment from the Jolly Joyful Stamp set. I die cut "joy" from patterned paper and then added the enamel dots.
I added the new Christmas tree die to a snow hill that I created. I added a tiny die cut star from the previously released Starry Sky Die to the top of the tree. Isn't the tree so cute?
That's all I have for you today! Be sure to come back one last day to see more projects from this release! Your next stop on the hop is over to Karen's blog! Don't forget to leave a comment for your chance to win one of two gift certificates to the Lil' Inker Designs store!!

Beautiful cards! I love the sentiment set (so many great words and designs!) And the new Christmas Bits dies are fantastic! Can't wait to get the set!
Beautiful cards! I love the Christmas trees!!
Love your color schemes! The details are just wonderful.
great cards x im thinking these trees would look great layered up as a wreath?
So pretty!! Love the bow on the top one!
So pretty and I love the happy colors you've used, thank you very much for sharing.
Very pretty! Love the colors you used.
Fantastic CAS design and great colour combinations.
Very cute tree cards. Love the row of trees and sparkle on the first and the polka dot Joy on the second.
I adore your pink card, it's such an unexpected treat for a holiday card.
Cute! I love the uncommon Christmas colors cards! Your pink rules :-)
Jen, I am drooling over how you orientated the bow in your first card. LOVE the use of the new tree die in both of these designs. I'm inspired to try something different with my Christmas colors. I ALWAYS do red and white. I'm so inspired by your pink and colorful cards this week!! Great stuff!!!!
Laura
nice and simple!
These are terrific! I love the non-traditional colors and am impressed with what fabulous cards you can make with these pretty die cuts and minimal stamping. Love that little bow and the cute tree snuggled into the snowdrift...
Sweet and happy pink card! (would also work great for a post-season "thanks for the Christmas gift" card). These new dies lend themselves to easily making multiple cards.
Absolutely beautiful! Love the tree die, and the layouts/colours are perfect showcases for them! Thank you for inspiring!

So cute! Love these CAS style cards. Thanks for the inspiration. :D
Who doesn't love sparkle?!?!?! I adore how you created the snowy hill. Both cards are fantastic!!! CAS is my favorite style of card.
Yay for the pink!
Jen, you need to do CAS more often! These are fantastic!~ I love the "joy" word done in pink!
