The New Year is just around the corner and what better way to prepare to ring it in than with the great kit "Champagne" by Lil Mz's Brainstorms.  The kit contains 20 great papers and over 100 elements in a great palette of gold, bright red, silver and black with accents of cream, white gold and dark rose red.  The elements contain both New Year's specific ones and general party/celebratory elements so this kit can be used past the holiday and all year round for those party tags.  You can purchase this kit here.

Below are tag designs showing the use of the kit.

A very Merry Christmas to you all!  I am wrapping up my favorite holiday with use of some beautiful items from the White Christmas collab at Scraps N Company - a kit by Lil Mz's Brainstorms and a lovely tube by Lysisange.  The kit contains 10 beautiful papers and 64 elements in a lovely palette of white, silver and frosted pink, which perfectly compliments the tube, and is perfect for winter as well as Christmas tags so it can be used for the rest of the winter season.  The kit is part of the collab, FREE with purchase of $13.50 or more here.  Lysisange's tube is FREE with purchase of $7 or more here.

For all you pink lovers out there, Chili Designz has the perfect holiday kit for you!  "Pink, Pink Christmas" contains 8 papers, 8 frames and 72 elements in a great versatile palette of various shades of pink, from ice pink to magenta, with accents of white and silver to offset the pinkness and add some extra sparkle to your designs.  You can purchase this kit at S&CO.

Christmas elegance comes personified in Alehandra Vanhek's beautiful "Christmas Gift 2" tube, a beautiful brunette who is dressed in a golden velvet Santa-style gown and carrying a brightly wrapped gift.  She comes in three versions (two with hat, one without).  I have paired her with a wonderful kit by FwTags Creations, "Christmas Gold", which includes 5 papers, 5 frames and 70 elements in a palette of golds and silvers, with accents of silver-gold, green and white, perfect for dazzling up your holiday tags.  I've also used a great alpha by Designz by Sue, "Christmas Girl", which comes in two versions.  You can purchase the tube here, kit here and alpha here.

Below are tag designs showing the use of the tube, alpha and kit.  






Also I have included some bonus snags in each of these designs.  You can get "Candlelight" snags here and "Gifts of Gold" snags here.
