Welcome to Day 1 of the September Countdown! This officially marks the start of our holiday releases for 2011 and we couldn't possibly be more excited for all of the amazing products we have to introduce to you over the next few months!
To begin today we are focusing on a few traditional Christmas icons!
First up is candy canes! The traditional Christmas treat! I think just about everyone eats some form of candy canes during the holiday season each year, which makes it a true Christmas tradition. Just for fun, I thought I would share this video I stumbled upon from the Discovery Channel showing how candy canes are made… it is really interesting if you haven't seen it before!
Candy canes really represent the holidays in true style…
They can be made from a variety of different materials and textures…
or even a variety of patterns outside of the standard stripes…
They can be used for holidays other than Christmas too!
Of course there are always the unconventional color schemes…
and the special treats that can be made from them…
Their traditional patterns & colors can be used in festive home decor…
Capturing candy canes & peppermint sticks perfectly is Dawn McVey' s latest set, Candy Cane Christmas. This set includes a candy cane and peppermint stick that can be used in a variety of ways to create your own holiday focal points. One of my favorite images is the mug which can be used by itself, or easily filled with the candy cane or peppermint stick. You will adore all of the elements this set contains once you see them in action!
The details.
- Candy Cane Christmas will be available for purchase on September 15th.
- It will retail for $15.

- A coordinating die collection will also be made available for purchase separately, retailing for $8. The collection includes shapes to coordinate with the candy cane, peppermint stick & mug. Approximate measurements: 2-3/4" x 1-1/4" (A), 2" x 1-3/4" (B).
To coordinate with this set, Dawn also created a new pad of patterned paper that features several different color combinations of candy cane stripes! These bold and classic colors serve as a fabulous jumping point for so many different kinds of projects! You won't be able to put it down!
The details.

The next Christmas classic we are covering today are the traditional holiday lights!
They sparkle & twinkle…
and make everything look magical!
The colors can be bold…
or classic.
They can add a special touch to nearly everything.
And really make the world a more beautiful place.
From the soft shadows they create…
to the bright, colorful impression they leave at night…
They are magic in the purest form.
Dawn McVey's second set for this month is a fabulous set of images dedicated to those beautiful, twinkling lights that almost all of us use to adorn our homes every year! It features a string of lights with interchangeable bulbs of different styles & shapes making it easy to create multi-color strands!
The details.
- Holiday Lights will be available for sale on September 15th.
- It will retail for $15.
- Holiday Lights contains a total of 14 stamps (1 light string, 4 interchangeable bulbs, 1 circular tag image and 8 sentiments).
I have another stamp set to introduce you to today. A special new sentiment set just for the holidays! I have been having so much fun experimenting with different font combinations lately and stacking them on top of one another. This new set offers my latest efforts to you in the form of extra special holiday greetings. With unique sayings that will make your projects stand out from the crowd, you won't want to miss out on this amazing set!
The details.
- Stylish Sentiments: Holiday will be available for sale on September 15th.
- It will retail for $24.
- Stylish Sentiments: Holiday contains a total of 12 stamps (8 stacked sentiments, 3 single line sentiments and one star image).
Every once in a while as space allows we like to introduce a die for a previously released set. This month we are doing just that for Holly Jolly. Having dies for these holly images will be a dream come true and I personally can hardly wait to use the dies with felt!
The details.
- The Holly Jolly die collection will be available for sale on September 15th.
- It will retail for $5.
- The Holly Jolly die collection includes shapes to coordinate with the single holly leaves, the separate holly berry cluster and both assembled holly sprigs. Approximate measurements: 1-1/2" x 1" (A), 2" x 1" (B).
Now that we have all of the details out of the way, let's get into some fun projects!
This is one of my favorite projects from today. All that red & white together just seems so festive!
For a unique twist on a background, I alternated between the two background strips, stamping one above the other. It used the candy cane stripes from Candy Cane Christmas and the smallest polka dots from Polka Dot Basics II.
For the candy cane , I die-cut the shape from white cardstock and stamped the coordinating image with Pure Poppy ink. I added a small sprig of holly cut from Simply Chartreuse felt and embellished with red rhinestones.
This amazing sentiment comes from Stylish Sentiments: Holiday, and is stamped with True Black onto kraft cardstock that has been cut with the Spiral Notebook Page die.
This Royal Velvet card is bright & festive! It's fun to branch out once in a while and experiment with non-traditional clothing.
First, stamp the candy cane strips in Fresh Snow. Next, a sentiment from Stylish Sentiments: Holiday is added in between the rows. I added the glitter with Scor-tape.
The tag focal point is from Candy Cane Christmas and it is stamped onto white cardstock and punched out with a scalloped circle punch and adhered in place with foam dimensionals.
This project would look fabulous in other colors as well!
This festive striped paper is what I used as the jumping point for my next project!
The mug die that is sold as part of the Candy Cane Christmas die collection has a fun little feature that I thought I would show you. There is an interior cut that creates a slit perfect for tucking things into the mug, especially candy canes and peppermint sticks!
Here I have added a peppermint stick to the mug! So easy to do when you have the right tools!
I embellished the mug with the new Holy Jolly die. The holly sprig was die-cut from Ripe Avocado cardstock and then stamped with Mehndi Medallion with Ripe Avocado ink. Red rhinestones were added as well.
This sentiment from Stylish Sentiments: Holiday balances out everything perfectly, added to this Kraft strip with Ripe Avocado ink.
The upper portion of the Kraft strip is stamped with Polka Dot Basics using Vintage Cream ink. I also swiped the ink pad around the edges of the strip for definition.
This next project using a very untraditional holiday color scheme, but is definitely not lacking in holiday cheer!
The sentiment (also from Stylish Sentiments: Holiday) is stamped onto Hibiscus Burst cardstock with VersaMark and heat embossed with White Filigree Embossing Powder.
The strands of lights from Holiday Lights are stamped in Smokey Shadow above and below the sentiment. The bulbs are stamped with Hibiscus Burst, Aqua Mist and Sumer Sunrise. As a finishing touch I added appropriately colored rhinestones to the center of each bulb. So easy and so fun to create!
In addition to the candy cane & peppermint stick images found in Candy Cane Christmas, there is also an adorable large peppermint candy.
To make side extensions for the image to help it looked like wrapped candy, I die-cut this one shape from Raspberry Fizz cardstock and cut & scored it like my Lazy Stamper's Medallion (CLICK HERE to read more about this technique in case you missed it the first time around). Cut the piece in half to create even pieces for each side.
You can see here how they fit perfectly with the peppermint candy to help it look more realistic.
This card features another one of the sentiments from Stylish Sentiments: Holiday. Here it is stamped in Scarlet Jewel ink, with sheet music being added beside it to help reinforce the theme.
Love the color scheme on this particular project and will definitely be using it again!
Do you happen to remember our Christmas Tree die from last year? It works beautifully with the new Holiday Lights set.
The tree id die-cut from Simply Chartreuse cardstock. I heat embossed the light strings only with Silver Filigree Embossing Powder and then added rhinestones of various sizes to the strings. LOVE this look!
The sentiment (also from Stylish Sentiments: Holiday) was heat embossed as well on Hawaiian Shores cardstock placed under the tree.
I added a little star to the top of the tree and balanced out the bottom of the card with a little pinked edge. You could definitely recreate this card in a variety of colors!

Eveline.
Love the Holiday Lights set. I can think of many amazing ways to use it. But of course it was a difficult job to pick just one favorite, as all of the new releases are so creative!
I like the fonts in Stylish Sentiments: Holiday, and Holiday Lights looks like a really fun set to play with.
Your multi-background Candy Cane card is just adorable,
Nichole. And I love the “bling” on the purple card….

Another amazing release but what caught my eye was Dawn’s Holiday Lights set. Just love all the possibilities and versatility. Can’t wait to see more 🙂
A very “sweet” release to be sure!!
Just have to comment on that fab video – “How its Made” is a late night TV favourite in our house. We take so much stuff for granted these days and just don’t appreciate the brilliant minds that make such engineering and automation possible. I’d love to see a similar video on the production of PTI stamps! What about it Nichole?
But I digress – so many lovely inspirational cards here! I thought I wouldn’t need any more Christmas sets (I was WRONG!) – but I’m so glad I’ve already purchased Holly Jolly and the Christmas tree die!!!!
Oh wow! This has really got me in a holiday mood. Absolutely love everything.
LOVE LOVE the lights set and the sentiment set! Simply FAB!!! Will def add it to my already brimming stash of PTI goodies! Waiting for the rest of the release now! 🙂
This release is off to a great start with loads of fun goodies today. Love the holly dies – I can see myself getting a lot of use out of those. Dawn’s sets are gorgeous as always- I especially love the Christmas Lights set. Thanks for the chance to win.
I love it all! What beautiful projects from everyone! These sets & coordinating products look like they will be amazing holiday resources with clever year round potential as well!
Fabulous! Love the light strings. Can’t wait to see all the possibilities for these great new stamp sets…
I love all the products that had a debut today. My favourite is the die-cut tree with the embossing and rhinestones, but it is a narrow first 🙂 I like all the projects and thanks for always showcasing to perfection. Thanks for the contest too, I would love to win this and I appreciate the opportunity.
Owh I love this time of year – preparing for Christmas and building the excitement. For me cardmaking (of the official kind) started with a holly stamp I purchased on clearance from a local craft store about 9 years ago. Since then Christmas cardmaking has been my staple and I own more Christmas stamps than any other. My soft spot for sure! Love them all.
wow! I love how you set the scene with all of those amazing photos, and the projects are amazing! That die-cut mug with the peppermint stick in it is so cute.
I love the samples and the dies are awesome.
These are all too cool!!!! I just love Christmas.
Wow, this has so put me in the Christmas mood! I love these sets! I can’t wait to see what else is being showcased this week!!!
Though it’s still very hot in Asia, these sets have brought me feel of Winter and the festive season !
Can’t wait to see the other holiday theme sets of this month !!
Can’t wait to see the rest of the light set. Love the use of the light string on the die cut tree.
what’s not to love! candy canes, string of lights, fresh holiday sentiments…..can’t wait to start my holiday projects!
WOW! I’m lost for words! I didn’t think I’d need anymore Christmas stamp sets, but I DO! I love all that you have shown today, your projects are amazing!
These are beautiful! I may have to need this!
I always look forward to the release of PTI’s new holiday sets. Love the look of the peppermint candy! Thanks for sharing such great inspiration and the chance to win.

Love it when Christmas arrives at PTI! Just beautiful cards and ideas this year! I think all of the images and dies will “spur my creativity”, but it’s the sentiments so far that will make all the difference on my cards! Thank you!!!

So every year when it is time for Christmas stamps to come out it is just like Christmas morning for me! I already have enough to last forever but, I truly can’t resist them.

We’re off to the races!………looks like another month of “must have” sets and dies, and a paper pad too! Wonderful, enticing samples to inspire us. I am always amazed with the new concepts you create when I think it has all been done before!
The Candy Cane Collection looks like a must have!! And the paper pad is gorgeous….reminds me of the new Jolly Rancher or Skittles fruity candy canes that come out in many different colors. Oh the possibilities!
Let me just say that Stylish Sentiments: Holiday is STUNNING!!
Love the mixture of fonts…
and the sentiments themselves…
perfect!
And then lights and candy canes…
I’m in love…
and ready to decorate for Christmas right now…
which hubs doesn’t want to hear because I already start the first of November…
which he complains about.
Oh…I just love the Holidays…
and seeing these sets just puts me in the Holiday mood right now…
thanks so much for all these beautiful examples…
I’m ready to buy now!
I look forward to this Christmas release all year! So I am very excited about all the fun new goodies to craft with! Sparkly lights, candy canes and beautiful sentiments…what could be better?!
I haven’t seen anything yet that isn’t simply amazing! I LOVE the Christmas light strand and the way it was incorporated with the Christmas tree! I can only imagine what else is to come! Thanks for all the ideas and inspiration!
I’m so excited for these sets! What a great assortment of holiday goodies. It’s making me want to put up the Christmas tree! LOL! 🙂
I love everything the candy cane paper is so cute and the cut out tree with the lights and rhinestones is just gorgeous!
You had me at that MUG!!!! I love it, and how genius to put a slit on the die!!!
I love everything in this post! I think my favorite is going to be the tree lights though! ADORABLE! I really didn’t plan to add anything to my Christmas stamps this year but I may be making an exception. And I really adore the photos in the beginning of the posts. They really set the tone, not to mention they offer tons of inspiration!
LOVE the lights! What a great holiday idea!
I love the background stamp in Candy Cane Christmas. Holiday Lights is perfect for my DH, if it doesn’t move he will throw a string of lights on it. And not just at Christmas. He is so cute!
I guess it’s time to shift gears, even with 90 degrees outside! Lovely projects…especially liking the Sentiments set. (Elf is a staple @ Christmas.) Looking forward to the 15th!
I love the candy canes, and the holiday lights.
Wow, this puts me in the Christmas spirit already and it’s only day 1 of the countdown! Love the variety of lights for the light string and all the festive colors used on the cards!
I have a real weakness for Christmas sets. I especially love the cards using non-traditional colors. The hard part will be deciding which sets to buy but the sentiment set is definetly on the list.
Love the new sentiments and the mix of fonts! How great is that? Great projects as always! Can’t wait to see more…
WOW WOW WOW!!! I LOVE EVERYTHING!!! The candy canes are fabulous! I LOVE all of the cards you made! gorgeous!
And the Holly Die is a must have!
I love it all – I can’t wait to get started on my holiday cards and tags. Candy canes are dancing through my head!
Oh wow! The stacked sentiments are perfect and I love love love the candy cane and mug sets!
All I can say is WOW!! Paper, stamps, and dies and it’s only day 1. I can’t wait to see what the rest of the release has in store for us!!!
I love all of the beautiful cards, showing the wonderful dies and new stamp sets. The use of non-traditional colors was done so beautifully. I think my favorite, although it was hard to pick from so many gorgeous cards, was the tree with the lights. So so beautiful!!!
Oh my WOW!! Love all these sets! Can not wait to see what else you all have coming!!!
Oh, holy cow! I love it all. We love Christmas in this house and somehow you’ve managed to come up with three sets that are not only fabulous, but actually fill gaps in our stamp collection. The star lights are PERFECT! We ADORE candy canes. And I’ve been looking for new Christmas sentiments that are “us” which I have now found. I am over the moon happy!
Wow, everything presented today has got me in the holiday spirit. I love it all, I want it all.
Just when you think it’s too early to think about the holidays, you guys introduce fun products that make us say “Bring it on!!” Love all of these…can’t wait til the release!!!
What gorgeous projects! It is too hard to pick my favorite card, because I love them all. I can’t wait to cut out holly leaves from felt, and ohhhh the candy canes!! I also just love the Holiday lights. The creative clicks also provide an amazing forecast of the greatness yet to be revealed in the next few days! Thanks, Papertrey team, for making this the best time of the month!
These new products are making me feel very festive!! Love it all – the Holiday Lights are sure to become a must-have!

Candy canes are one of my favorite holiday icons! This set is perfect, not just for cards, but for creating gift tags and pretty package toppers. I need it now!
Everything looks wonderful and is putting me in a festive mood! I kinda feel like doing some xmas craft shopping right now….are you sure I have to wait till the 15th? (p.s. love everything…as always!)
What a great start for the month! I love the last card using the tree die and rhinestones. The little mug is pretty cute, too 🙂
Love, love, love everything! My favorite is the Holidy Lights set. I love how there are different bulbs that can be used, and I’m super excited that it can be used with the Christmas tree die from last year!
So many beautiful cards! I love how you brought back the Christmas Tree die… sometimes I forget that I own certain things and it is nice to see them used again and in a different way.
I am so excited about these sets today, especially about the new font one. I love the look of it and all your cards are just so beautiful Nichole.
I am so ready for Christmas and these sets are amazing! I am truly in love with the Holiday Sentiment set, it’s beautiful!

Dear stamping fairy… Please fill my stash with the sept PTI release… They are simply amazing and I can’t decide, I want it all..
Seriously, this month is going to kill my wallet! Love it so far!
Oh my goodness! I love it all. It makes me want to get up in the attic and start getting down Christmas decorations! I just adore making my own Christmas cards and I can see some mighty nice ones in my future with these fun designs! Thanks again for another month of wonderful products!
I am so excited about the sentiments I love what they say and the size of them. They can be used on the outside or inside of a card and that is hard to find!! The light set is adorable too. Really everything you guys create is just awesome!! Thanks.
This is adorable. I am always amazed by how you come up with the extra ways to use supplies. I love the flower cut out to be the sides of the peppermint. So creative!
Is that quote from the movie “Elf”- thats so cool!!!!! And I think I am going to use that purple and white colour scheme- so great and different.
All of these fabulous new sets are really getting me in the Christmas mood! I love the new Tag Its!!
I love all the Christmas stuff. The mug with the candy cane in it is great!
Nichole!
Honestly, just when I thought I didn’t need anymore Christmas stamps. I even told myself I was going to be ok this release when I started seeing the sneak peeks.
However, with these samples the temptation is just there. I adore everything single thing shown today, but the Holiday sentiments are just beyond gorgeous!
Wow! Again, beautiful sets, cards and everything!! I love the unconventional color schemes for Christmas!
Gorgeous. My husband was singing white Christmas in the shower this morning, must be getting close to the time of year to start thinking about making Christmas cards.
OK…I love it all. Looks like I’ll be staying up REALLY late or getting up in the wee hours. I can’t wait to see more….
There isn’t one card I wouldn’t want to make with the new holiday stamp sets and dies especially the Christmas tree and the holiday cup with the candy cane. You have provided wonderful ideas and inspiration to use this year. Thank you!
And I thought I didn’t need any new Christmas stamps. Boy, was I wrong! I am so in love with all of the new items and it is only day one. I think I am in trouble!
Another wonderful month of exciting ideas and products! Love the examples and cannot wait to make cards from the. Especially adore the string of Christmas lights on the cards.
I am in desperate need of some holiday sets, and this month’s release looks amazing! I am especially excited about the holiday lights with interchangeable bulbs. I’m so excited to see more!
You definitely got me in the mood for the holidays. I like everything I saw. I especially like the Stylish Sentiments Holiday as I am lacking stacked holiday sentiments in my stash. I would love to win this entire collection.
What a bunch of beautiful stamp sets! I’m thrilled about the candy cane set and the slit in the mug is just so smart.
Oh, wow, both these sets are just so much fun! I LOVE the candy cane stripes, and the fact that the holiday lights set goes with the Christmas tree die from last year is perfect! Can’t wait to own these!
Can’t wait to see those Christmas Lights!
Can’t believe it’s the holiday reveal already! So far I want everything and it’s only day one! lol
So many things to choose from! Love the holly dies and I’m so glad the old sets don’t get forgotten.
GAH! LOVE the lights — and those awesome sentiments!! I told Dawn the other day I will use the lights for thank yous for my husband’s clients (he is an electrician) Couldn’t be more perfect 🙂
Christmas is my favorite holiday! I am really excited about this release! Love everything that I have seen so far. The patterned paper is so yummy!
Oh my, I love all your samples. They make me want to get each and every set and each and every die!
I love them all, but especially Stylish Sentiments and Holiday Lights. Even with a steamy Christmas in Sydney, these sets would work great!
Oh my! It’s like all my Christmases have come at once! 😀
I thought I had my share of Christmas stamps for this season but I think I’ve just been corrected! The lights set is awesome and the cup die already has me thinking of ways of making fun kinesthetic cards for my family and friends!
Thanks for the inspiration!

I love all of these new sets! Christmas is my absolute favourite time of the year, so I can’t wait to add these to my collection. I especially love how well the lights work with the tree die, you always manage to make older sets work in a new way again! Love the projects!

Oh – just sign me up for the “I Want It All” right now. All three of these sets are wonderful. Nichole – thank you for the lovely font combination on your sentiment sets. I meant to comment about how much I liked this new look with some of the releases from last month. These are just so classy looking. Yay for the holly jolly die and the cup die to use with the peppermint stick and candy can is so cute. Love the candy canes – love the Christmas lights. All – way too cute.
I adore the tree with the lights! Wonderful font combinations too–I’m loving that look!

OMG, what an amazing release! I worry when I love everything on the first day! Dawn’s sets are fabulous, especially the lights, and I can already see endless uses for both. Nichole, your sentiment set is just AWESOME–adore the fonts and stacked look. This can easily become my favorite go-to Christmas set!
Oh, I love the candy canes! What a great set! And how fun to include a cute little mug, too! The purple card is awesome! Great stuff this month!
Wonderful! Love the lights!
i loved all of these cards, especially the one with the aqua mist base. I looked at it and thought that could be my christmas card this year.
Oh, how festive! Love the dies! The candy cane is just the BEST! Lovely sample cards as ususal Nicole! :o)
Everything presented today is fantastic but I’m truly in love with the lights stamp set! I dream about decorating for Christmas all year, but if I HAD to pick only one piece of holiday decor, it would be a tree with lights. Can’t wait to get this set.
SOOOOO excited for the beginning of the holiday releases!! Love the festive nature of all your projects- usually I can pick one or two that are my favorites but you have managed to make that very difficult today. The background you created on teh first card is AMAZING! I thought that was patterned paper when I first looked at it! The background on the royal velvet card is just brilliant – love how you can make anything on a background look like it was machine made!! And did I say the peppermint candy card is SOOO darn cute – love how you made that!! Can’t wait for the stylish sentiments and the dies this month!! WOW!!!!

Oh my! Ok, I’m officially ready to start making my christmas cards…well not quite yet, maybe after the 15th when I can get some new toys…I am loving the card using the pastel color scheme and the candy cane prints paper!
*thud* I want – no… NEEEEEED all of these stamps and dies you’ve shown today! I’m in love with the candy cane, the mug, the lights, the holly leaves & berries. Christmas is my favorite holiday, and these stamps and dies will add to the joy of making Christmas cards and tags this holiday season.
I want it all! I love everything today – the candy canes, lights, sentiments! The cards are so fun but deciding which sets I want to use for my cards is going to be tough.
Every month I am absolutely amazed at the new products coming out. I adore the candy canes, the holiday lights, and absolutely love the stylish sentiments: holiday!! GREAT job!! My heart loves you and my pocket book shudders when this time of the month rolls around!!

I love the new paper! I’m so glad you came out with holly dies…I love that set and this will make using it even better (not to mention cutting felt or fabric ones too).
Wow–I’ve been wondering what I’ll do for holiday cards. now I know!

Those lights are just darling! I love the treatment you did with the tree die cuts and rhinestones. That may have been the project that pushed me over the edge (not that I had far to go). I’m so excited for this release!

i hadn’t decided if i was going to make Christmas cards or not, this release has made up my mind. i have always had a thing for Christmas lights. everything is great. thanks.
Gorgeous cards like always!
I love the Candy Cane Christmas stamp set and dies. The . I collect candy cane ornaments because the candy cane is one of my favorite Christmas icons (along with gingerbread men, holly and angels).
The Holiday Lights are cute too, especially the way you used it on the Christmas tree die.
So much to love! The strings of lights & the holly dies are faves.
Want. it. all. What a great prize to win! Thanks for the chance
I love these simple appealing designs for the holidays! Thanks for the fun colorful candy cane photos and video.
I have a weakness for candy canes at Christmas time, so you can probably guess my favorite set… Dawn’s light set has me intrigued as it goes so well with crystal rhinestones!
You’ve picked some really great color combos to work with– I like the chatreuse/hawaiian shores combo quite a bit. I really like the simple sentiments, too: I don’t usually put sentiments on my card fronts, but it will be fun to work with some as focal points!
Wow! I love the candy and lights sets, so cute! I don’t have Holly Jolly, but those dies are very tempting! Love your tree card!
Just when I thought I had plenty of christmas stamps, these come along! I can’t wait for the 15th. It looks like I’ll be spending a lot again the month!
WOW! I cannot wait to order this release….love all the new sets and dies. I can see so many possibilities, cannot wait to create for Christmas.
Can’t wait to put lights on my tree!!
Please say that you’ve ordered truckloads of everything! I’m in love all over again witth embossing (especailly the silver on your Christmas tree card). And that candy cane prints paper is my new must have of the season.
you must have the most creative mind in the whole world – love how everything coordinates and the innovative ways you use various dies and stamps to make an entirely new item (i.e. peppermint candy wrapper). thanks for a chance to win this wonderful stuff!!
Magnificent – I am so excited for this Christmas release!! I love the card with the striped and polka dots and the mug with the candycane and the card with the peppermint candy and the folded edges – oh darn I love them all! 🙂
Wow!! Quite a bit to like today. But I must say my favs are the Stylish Holiday Sentiments. I like those when you sneaked them day one and they are still my favs. But the lights are a close second. Great release so far!!
Amazing stamps set for the holidays you have even given me the inspiration for my Christmas cards this year!! Can’t wait to play with the Holiday lights!
I love these Christmas stamp sets and dies and your cards are beautiful! I can’t wait to get my hands on them and start my Christmas cards.
Alright, now you’ve just convinced me, I MUST have ’em all this release!!!! Your cards are beyond words fabulous. My favorite, hmmmmm, though a toughie, is the mug with the peppermint stick slipped inside the clever opening! Love it!!!
Oh my! It’s September, College Game Dsy is on and now I can’t wait to craft for Christmas!
The whole team has such wonderful inspiration – hot chocolate, peppermint and lights! Can’t wait for this release!
Oh boy. There goes this month’s budget–and on day 1!!! Love the Holiday Sentiments set and the Holiday Lights–especially the card with the bright colors. So, so pretty…and I actually think it would be a great day for me to finally win!!! 🙂
as usual–can’t wait! have to get a job to afford my monthly forays 🙂
Love the Stylish Holiday Sentiments. And great ideas from all the designers that had posts today. Has my mind churning on this year’s holiday cards. Can’t wait to see what else the team comes up with over the next few days!! I’m sure inspirations will abound!!
I love it all! Your cards are absolutely gorgeous! Those large sentiments are so fun with the mixed fonts! I LOVE candy canes, and can’t wait to get my hands on that adorable set, and the stringed lights are just gorgeous! They look like so much fun to play with!
I vowed that I did not need any more Christmas stamps, and yet, seeing this, I may have to break my vow! Can’t wait to see the rest of this release!
Oh, no! You are subjecting me to unbearable temptation (again)! I love everything but my favorites have to be the new holly die and the lights set, especially how it goes so well with the tree!
So exciting to see all the fun Christmas products! I love candy canes, holly, lights, all of it!!
Oh, my goodness! I was all prepared to skip the holiday sets this year since the sets I got last year did not get used. But, I love Holiday Lights!! Gotta have it!
I’m really loving that light set :O)
Wow! I love it ALL!! Candy Canes, Christmas Lights, Beautiful Wording…oh my!!
oh what fun new sets!! love the little mug and candy cane dies… makes me want some hot cocoa!!
Day 1 and I’ll take it all! Looking forward to having all these goodies to play with.
I am not sure I can deal with Chrsitmastime yet but they sure are cute. It is going to take a huge gear change to adjust to doing Christmas cards.

Those lights are fantastic! I can’t wait to string them all over my holiday cards. And paired with those gorgeous sentiments… I am in love!
Of course before this, I was sure I did not need another Christmas set, but now…. I especially love Dawn’s Light set. This will be perfect with the Christmas tree die. Also, looking forward to the new holly dies. Beautiful cards as always!

Can’t believe we’re talking Christmas already, but you got me in the spirit with this release.
Christmas is my favorite holiday and I usually make all my cards. These new wonderful stamp sets will have to come to my house so I can try to make some of the beautiful cards Nichole and the design team have already shown.
Wow! How fun do these sets look!! I love the lights on the Christmas tree! The new paper looks great too! I really like those colors together!!
Oh my gosh! Everything is really cute today! I am particularly fond of Dawn’s new lights. It looks super festive on the die cut tree!
Just gotta have those lights, WOW! Your cards are wonderful and also can’t wait to see more of Lisa’s sets. Looks like another terrific release from Papertry. Hard to think of Christmas when we are dealing with all this flooding in PA.
Oh my! I MUST have the Holiday Lights set, I do have that Christmas tree die and can see lots of tags and cards made with this set. And after seeing what Betsy did with the set to make a birthday card; I AM IN LOVE!
Love everything I have seen today! So much inspiration!
Lisa
It’s hard to even think what to say as my heart is beating with excitement and my brain is swirling with so many exciting ideas after seeing all your fabulous designs and those of your talented designers! Too hard to decide what I want most — ALL of course, but will it be candy canes, light strings or that unique bells & boughs when it’s completely revealed?!!! Pure Holiday LOVE from seeing these reveals today!!!
Nichole, you are beyond clever! Your cards are fabulous, as always, and I can’t believe the creative ways you used new and old products. These sets are all gorgeous and so versatile! I can’t wait to place my order!
Awesome sets! So cheerful and fun! I can’t wait for the lights set!!!
Yummy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love it love it love it! Can’t wait to play with it!
Thank you!

I thought I had enough Christmas stamps until I saw today’s post and was blown away by the new and innovative products. I simply love the candy canes and
lights sets and I think I have to have them! Thanks for
all the creative inspiration!
I love Christmas, and I REALLY love PTI Christmas!!! YEY!
LOVE it ALL!!! But those Christmas lights are WOW! I love how you used them on the tree die. And I lvoe the cocoa cup. 🙂 AMAZING as usual!
I love everything having to do with Christmas, so I’m always excited to see the holiday stamps. I really love that Christmas tree card and I’m very excited about the patterned paper!!
Super excited I love christmas. Love to make christmas cards and goodies. Cant wait!!!!!
Everything is amazing. What a fun release this is going to be.
There are so many things that make me happy about these stamps and dies – but the thing that pushes me over the edge with glee is the sentiment that quotes the movie Elf! I didn’t think I could be any happier about the Candy Cane Christmas set and then…bam!…there’s Buddy the elf! I also love the fresh colors you’ve used, how you used rhinestones to accent or as the holiday lights. So many fabulous ideas!!
Just when I thought I had my Christmas cards figured out, your beautiful sample cards have changed my mind. I am always looking for a simple but elegant card to mass produce and I just loved your first card. So inspirational!!
All of the projects are great! Cannot pick one favorite, they are all my favorite….so far! Thanks!
I LOVE Christmas in September! How cozy and sweet and the tree lights remind me of everything I love about the holidays. Just gorgeous!
I’m so happy I haven’t started on my Christmas cards yet. What wonderful ideas and I love the sentiments. Way to go Nichole and team!
I am grinning from ear to ear. This has been such a great way to start my Saturday morning. I love the holidays! First, your sentiment set is wonderful! I just adore it. The cards look so festive and fun. I love the new peppermint stick/mug set, I could use that for so many applications. Dawn showcased a great clean and simple card with the light set, amazing. . . If this is day one of the countdown, the rest of the week is going to knock my socks off, I am sure!
Yay…I get to use all the light set stamps with my tree die from last year. I am so excited!
I love all of it…especially the sentiment from the movie ELF! Thanks for offering the great prize!
The light set is so versatile! I also love the colors in the candy cane paper set – how bright and cheerful they are.
What fabulous holiday sets/dies! I love those twinkling lights!
I just love this months release! I love the sentiments!
Merry Christmas to me! Can’t wait to get my hands on those sentiments! I just received my latest box from Papertrey about 20 minutes ago and then sat down to this post….HEAVEN on earth on a Saturday morning!
oh good golly gosh – I so want the mug and peppermint stick dies! just amazing! love peppermint, most especially during the holidays. 🙂
These projects are beautiful …. so inspiring too!!
I love all of today’s projects!! I especially like how you showed the tree die from last year in a lovely card with the string of lights stamp from this year. So excited for the 15th.
I’m so excited for all the Christmas sets! I’m expecting our first baby in October and I know I need to get started if I want to get our Christmas cards finished this year. I can’t wait to see everything else!
Such beautiful cards and designs! I love Dawn’s work.
I loved all the projects today, but especially the ones with Candy Cane Christmas and Holiday Lights. Anything with candy canes or strings of lights just has to come live at my house! I already own enough Christmas sets to last for decades, but these are too gorgeous to pass up. Thanks for the inspiration!
I love all of these and I especially like the last one with the Christmas tree and lights! So beautiful! I love the candy cane and mug dies too! I cannot wait to see what else is coming! Thank you so much for sharing!
You have certainly done a beautiful job with all these cards from the color combos to the creative layout of the cards–simply beautiful. The dies are such a wonderful addition to our collection of goodies. I loved all your little details with the holly, stars, and rhinestones.
What a delightful post –filled with inspiration! I’m humming Christmas songs as I look at all the beautiful projects and the fabulous new stamps and dies! Love all the sentiments and the Holiday Lights stamp set is just pure fun!
I love these new sets!!!
ooohhh. I said I wasn’t going to buy anymore Christmas stamps, but I most definitely need those holiday lights to go with my Christmas tree die I got last year. And the fun font from Stylish Sentiments is wonderful. I’m in trouble this month!
Everything is way too cute. Love them all. Now I want a candy cane!
I love the mug and candy cane dies!!!
Everything is just beautiful and really captures the spirit of Christmas, looking forward to see what other magical projects you all come up with.
It’s beginning to feel a lot like Christmas — I hope Santa brings me one of everything!
Very inspiring cards. I love the tree card with the lights!
Oh my goodness, Nichole, this post has totally put me in the holiday spirit, let the festivities begin!! I adore your projects today, the cute peppermint candy wrapper, the bejeweled Christmas tree, the darling little felt holly leaves, those lovely, heartfelt sentiments, I could go on and on! Over the top WONDERFUL, all of it!
I’m just bursting with excitement over these sets and projects! I especially love the Candy Cane set and using rhinestones for the lights. Can’t wait for the 15th! Thanks for the chance to win!
wow, at first, thank you very much for beautiful & yummy pictures! They are eye candies this morning! 🙂 My fav. are …hard to chose, but luv holy berries dies, cup die and christmas lights! Cup & christmas lights are versatile. I’m always looking for versatile stamps, to use in different ways & different occasions! Holly berries dies were the shape that i was just looking for!! 🙂 Then, using that flower dies, to make peppermint candy wrappers is Very Creative!! Never thought of that!! so, now you can see i’m very excited!!! I’ll be so happy IF i win any of those!! Great Great Collection of dies & Stamps!!! oh, i’m so excited for this month’s release!!! 🙂
My first thought was oh how I love the colors, then I thought oh how I love mixing stamps and dies that I already have with the new images and dies. I do love the string of lights the most, I can just see my Christmas cards this year with the trees and lights wow.
Oh I love these new sets! I’m so happy that I just purchased the tree die from last year! These work so perfectly with the lights! I am smitten with the large candy-it’s so sweet! 🙂
I love those cute little star Christmas lights. It makes me want to stamp patterned paper with them right this minute! Candy canes and lights, great new ideas for holiday stamp sets. Great start to this release!
How can I possibly pick a fav? The Christmas lights are a must have. The photos you have posted are beyond magnificant and are totally inspiration. Bring on the snow!
The peppermint candy and die-cut Xmas tree with lights definitely stole the show today for me! Just fantastic! Love the new sayings also.
What a great bunch of stamps you introduced today. Love the card that uses Dawn’s lights with the tree die cut – just beautiful. I also really like the stacked sentiments what great font combinations you came up with.
So fun and festive! I love these cards! I definitely am now in the Christmas spirit!
I just love everything on this FIRST day of the release… can’t hardly wait for the the rest of the release. I already have some great ideas for Christmas cards for this year! Tks for sharing them with us!
How are we suppose to pick a favourite — these are all going to be hugely popular – I hope you are stocking lots, as we will want to get them all. Your samples are simply beautiful. I can’t wait for release day now — it is time to start thinking about making the Christmas cards. Love, Love, Love then all.
Oh Wow!!! These new sets are so fun, bright and festive…look lots of fun to be had playing with them. Certainly puts one in a festive mood and looking forward to the holidays. I can’t wait to see the rest of the release.
Thanks!
You have created some amazing tools to make it so easy for us to make quality gifts and cards. Great job, Nichole and Team!
Such awesome stamps/dies this month. I’m really loving the holiday lights–that tree you made was beautiful and the color scheme was an awesome combo.
I love them all today. They all work so well together that I don’t think you would want to leave anything out.
I wasn’t ready to see Christmas items yet, but after today’s post I am sooooo in the mood! Just when you think you have enough holiday stuff…I LOVE the Stylish Sentiments – Holiday – can’t wait to see more of this. Bells and Boughs looks really great as do the Christmas Labels and Christmas Blessings. And, it’s really neat how the Holiday Lights coordinate with last year’s Christmas Tree Die! Wow – now I need to rethink my Christmas Cards. Can’t wait to see tomorrow’s samples.
I am so excited for this month’s release! I love getting things ready for Christmas! Stylish Sentiments: Holiday looks like it will round out my collection quite nicely, and I can’t wait to make some fun candy cane cards!
I LOVE the look of the lights on the tree diecut, and the sentiment set is simply AMAZING!
Woot! Bring on the Christmas sets; I’m so excited for this release!
I really wasn’t into Christmas yet but you always make me want to start getting ready. Last year my Christmas card was the die cut tree with a set from Hero Arts that has the string of lights. I used a Calipso pad and it really came out great. You can see it on my NEW blog.
I can’t wait to see more of the Stylish Sentiments: Holiday set. I’m looking to get a set to use inside my Christmas cards this year.
I also love the Holiday lights set. The Christmas Joy & Cheer Card you made using this set & the Christmas Tree Die is adorable.
I’ve been looking for a good mug set for my collection…and this is it!
I love them all!
Here I thought I wouldn’t be buying anything this release with the holiday focus and having so much already. Boy was I wrong. I NEED the Holiday Lights set. So adorable. I can’t wait to get my hands on it! The projects kicking off this release are fantastic and I can’t wait to see more.
I love the new light set and the holly dies. Your photos of the various uses of little twinkling lights was a wonderful little burst of Christmas excitement today – thanks!
Love it!
So very cute!
The video of the candy canes was so interesting! I had no idea! I loved the litte mug die and peppermint with the pink wrapper! Too cute!
Oh my gosh, Nichole… I really don’t know which project blows me away more. I don’t believe I have any candy cane stamps in my arsenal. How do you always know how to fill empty places? Do you have cameras hidden in our craft spaces? 🙂 Beautiful projects!
Totally Adorable!
How will I ever pick? I love the light set and the bells and just everything! I would love to be able to be the winner of these sets because I could never buy all of them myself!
I love the candy canes and the sweet “may the holiday season bring happiness…” sentiment. This will be the set that will make many cards for many holidays to come!
It’s only day one and I already want to hit the big button to buy it all! I’ve been so excited since the peeks started – I love the stacked sentiment set and those little holiday lights. I also love that my birthday is later this month, so I’m not even going to look at the cart total when I order. Thanks for the beautiful projects.
OMGosh, not only do I want so many of the new stamps and dies that you and your design team are showing today, but I see I also need to order some older stamps and dies, too. And, there are four more days of new stamps, dies, and, and…!! I hope my wallet survives 🙂
I am so not ready for Christmas – but your projects and those gorgeous inspirational photos make me!!! Now I want it all!
Wow, beautiful creations. I am now ready to make holiday cards!
I don’t know how you do it. I have so many holiday stamps and yet Papertrey finds the gaps in my collection!! Love these stamps and I cannot wait to get started on Christmas cards this year!!!
Wow!! These are amazing sets. I didn’t think I needed more Christmas stamps, but I absolutely adore the candy cane and mug set with matching dies. So sweet. The new sentiment set is perfect for making quick Christmas cards, so that’s going in my collection too!! The Holly dies are great and even though I don’t have the stamp set, the dies will be mine!! Hehe!! Can’t wait!!
My first thought is WOW! I absolutely love everything you showed us today. And your creations are amazing!
Christmas is my favorite time of the year. I love seeing all the colors and lights. This collects is just wonderful. I will be starting my Christmas cards next week, and I know I have finally found the perfect sentiments.
First off, what a color palette! This alone inspires all kinds of new Christmas ideas.
Whoopee for the holly die. (I’ve been wanting one for a long time.) The mug die and stamp are a wonderful shape, and again you thought of everything, and included the cut at the lip for tucking in items. I can hardly wait to see the new stamp sets.
Any year with Papertrey in the holiday season is a very good year! One more time…Love those colors.
wow, looks like a great month again!! I really just am so motivated for Christmas now!!
Favorite? I love them all!
We’re just coming out of a heat wave where we live, but that mug with peppermint sticks makes it feel like the chill of Christmas is in the air.
Love the star-shaped lights with bling!
And the Christmas tree die decked with lights! I bought that die last year but did not have time to make cards. I think you just designed my cards for this year!
Every time I would look at a new project, I would think that it might be my favorite, then another great one would come up, and I would think maybe it might be my favorite! I loved all of today’s stamps and dies!!!
I cannot tell you how happy my Birthday is on the 28 this month. I will not have a ounce of guilt in buying everyting pictured! I LOVE it all. But that Christmas tree with the rhinestone lights has my name written all over it!
Thanks Nichole for another AWESOME release!
Susan
I love it when something I have (the Tree Die and rhinestones) will work perfectly with something new (christmas light). Kudos, for making something old, new again.
Words escape me today! I love Christmas and LOVE everythingin today’s release!!! I want it ALL already and it’s only the first day!
I’m at a loss for words today! I LOVE Christmas and everything about today’s release. I already want it ALL and it’s only the first day!!!
the mixed fonts in the Stylish Sentiments set are gorgeous!!! Your never-ending creativity is so inspirational. Thanks so much for another great month of stamps & ideas!
I love the candy cane and mug dies and stamps. What an amazing set! I have to have it!!!!
I love all the new sentiments, Dawn’s new light set, and all the incredible card examples. Thanks for all the inspiration Nicole!!!
I can hardly handle how much I love everything shown today! My fave is that little mug die – it’s too cute got words!
Christmas is my favorite time of year! Love the sentiments 🙂
Just when I make myself a promise not to get anymore holiday stamps you come up with just what I need!!guess I will have to break that promise!
Love it all! Can’t stop looking at the Christmas tree with the string of lights on it! Beautiful!
Speechless!!!!!!!!
Tis the season!!! Love the cards, so very inspiring. Love the candy cane paper.
WOW! Day 1 of the countdown and I am already in trouble! I am such a sucker for all things candy cane! I love the die that goes along with the set! And those little Christmas lights? They are coming to live with me for sure! Love that they work with the tree die, since it is one of my favorite dies!!!
What an awesome way to kick off the new month! I love Christmas and these would be a great addition to my stamping stuff! Once again, you amaze.
Oh my..thanks for the gorgeous inspiration!
Christmas is my favorite time of the year. This collection is awesome. Love the tree die cut with the lights. Thanks for giving me many more options for spreading the joy!
I knew as soon as I saw the sneak peek that the light set would be my favorite!!! and I was right! and adding the rhinestone lights? adorable!!!! I love this Christmas release…it’s helping it feel a bit cooler here in AZ-I need a break from the 100+ temps! 🙂
Oh so lovely! Love the cup die! How great to be able to stick things inside! Love the lights too
Christmas here I come! I LOVE LOVE LOVE everything I see, Nichole! I need the die cut tree now. Amazingly, I didn’t last year, but all it takes is the right vision/card sample and it’s a need! Loved the video on making candy canes – super interesting. Also love the inspiration at the beginning of your posts now – it comes from everything around us, if we look and bounce from it! Can’t wait to see what you have for us next.
Oh goodness, is it that time of year already! Love Love Love the previews! Can’t wait to see the rest!
I love the font combos on the new sentiments! So modern and trendy with PTI’s signature class. And the tree die with the lights? Fabulous!
I LOVE IT ALL!!!
My two favorite cards for today are your Christmas Joy and Cheer card (love the tree’s embossed light strand and rhinestones and color combo of silver and Hawaiian Shores)and the Happiness and Joy card (love the star bulbs!) Thanks for the candy cane video! My 8yr old ds loved it too! It made me remember watching Mr. Rogers and how he went to different factories to learn how things were made!
Love the many ways the Christmas Lights were used today! That die-cut tree with lights trimming it is especially eye-popping. Great interplay between PTI products!
And I think it’s brilliant to put the little cut line in the cup die to insert things, because you just HAVE to know that stampers would be cutting there ourselves if it weren’t included! I’m sure many of us are already thinking, “what can I add to that cup?” It would be fun to cut a couple of brown rod shapes, impress them with woodgrain pattern, and have cinnamon sticks in apple cider!
Wow, Wow, Wow! I am blown away already! Your cards and fun color combos using these festive new sets have me ready to start on my holiday cards! I can’t wait!
Beautiful projects!!!
Very excited about this release. Can’t wait to
start my Christmas projects. Thanks for all the
great ideas!
They are all so lovely, the lights, the candy canes, the sentiments, the tree with lights.
I must have the Christmas light set and the sentiment set with a quote from one of my favorite movies, Elf!
The cards are all so festive and lovely. I particularly like the fact that you thought of making a slit in the mug to put the the candy canes in. Although, it can be a hectic time of year, it still is my favortie holiday.
I really like the Holly Jolly die collection and Dawn’s patterned papers and the slit in the mug adds a great touch for dimension! Great job!
Especially love Dawn’s Christmas lights and paper but, all of the creations from everybody are wonderful, as usual.
And I love your HAPPINESS & JOY CARD and CHRISTMAS JOY & CHEER CARD. Untraditional colors and all. Beautiful. Thanks to all for all your hard work.
Love the light set. Everything just screams Christmas, Christmas, Christmas. It’s all great.
I love your new products for Christmas! It’s time to get busy on those cards.
LOVE the candy cane set…but the font set is absolutely to die for !!
Totally delightful! I could just feel the excitement bubbling to the top over all these sets! I love anything candy cane and peppermint and cocoa! Can’t wait for Christmas Eve— I mean release night!

Christmas is my favorite time of year & what you have brought to us this month is really delightful! I love the different color combinations you’ve shown. I can’t wait to see the rest of the release…I think I’m in trouble.
Oh my gosh! What beautiful stamps and die cuts! I love sending out hand made Christmas cards. Everyone in my family looks forward to them every year. These sets are a must for this year’s card! Thanks for all your creativity!
I love it all! This really puts me in the holiday mood. Can’t wait for snow and a cup of cocoa, with a peppermint stick, of course!
I am excited for this release. I just love the lights sets and just love the Candy Cane and little cup. I can’t wait to see the whole set. Now to start adding to my wishlist for this week… I can see it’s going to be a hard decision on what to order.

So many great Christmas options already and it’s only day 1!

Nicole, Your Christmas tree card is just DROP DEAD GORGEOUS!!!! I didn’t think I’d need anything this month, but I love the way the embossed lights look on that tree.
It has been 100 degrees every day this week, so its hard to think of anything but NOT melting. Yet your new Christmas set inspired me to think cool, wintery, thoughts! I can’t wait to make my holiday cards! Visions of candy canes are dancing about! 🙂
I am in LOVE! With it ALL! Such FUN Holiday ideas!!! FABULOUS as ALWAYS PTI!!!

So Much fun! I NEED the lights and sentiments!! Love love love!
I want everything! I love the mug with the cutout for the candy cane, too cute!
Love all of these ideas! Particularly like the holly and Christmas tree.
SO excited about the mug and clever die! These are great sets – definitely popping them into my cart and spreading the Christmas cheer with these!! Oh, and I am SO eager to package jars of cocoa mix and/or peppermint cookie mix then use the stamps to make gift tags.
I’ve gone back through and looked at each preview three times now – I just can’t get enough of all the goodness on every single project today! This release is amazing…and it’s only the first day! I’m dreaming of a Papertrey Christmas…
I’ve always adored Christmas light motifs and after seeing your take on this stamp set I know this is one I HAVE to get. Love your photo inspirations you found and that entertaining video too. 🙂
The candy canes are perfect. I can’t get over the cleverness of the mug with the slit in the top. So many possibilities!
I love EVERYTHING! I went back through everything you’ve shown today, and can’t pick just one or two favorites. Wow, fantastic showcase today!
Dear Santa, I want it all! Today’s cards really put me in the mood for Christmas crafting!
Such a gorgeous first introduction day! I love EVERY thing you’ve unveiled! Now off to see what the rest of the team made!
Wow!! Love it all!! The Holiday Lights and Stylish Sentiments stamp sets are my favorite!! Great projects to go along with the new release!!
I think the Christmas tree card is my favorite of this bunch! Love the lights and the way the tree extends over the top of the card base. Great inspiration, Nichole!
I am NOT ready for Christmas yet, but I am ready for some fun (and really cute) Christmas stamp sets! All your projects today are awesome and show off all these fab sets in such a great way. Can’t wait for the rest of the peeks.
WOW!!! Just when I thought I didn’t need anymore Christmas sets, I see these projects and boy has my mind been changed. I love everything about today’s post. These projects are just beautiful and love the sentiments!! Thanks for all of the inspiration and wonderful products you provide!!
I really love the holiday sentiments. So classy.
So many wonderful cheery designs….I can’t wait for the holiday season to begin!! Thanks for the December inspiration in September!
I love what Dawn did with the holiday lights and gift tags. Gets me in the holiday spirit already! We are expecting a baby around Dec. 23rd and this makes me wish it was kind of coming sooner 🙂
I love the Candy Cane Stamps, Dies and Paper. They ar a must have!!
I love Christmas stamps!I make Christmas cards every year. My friends and family can’t wait to see what I come up with each year. I don’t know which collection I like the best. They are all so darn cute! Love the sentiments. Oh…which one to choose?! I love them ALL!
Love how you made the end of the candy wrapper!!! So cool!
These new products are beautiful. I love the inspiration photos and projects you shared. My favorite product is the holly jolly die. I can think of a whole lot of ways I will use that one and it will most certainly make it into my PTI cart with my next order. I love that christmas tree stamp you did with the lights in rhinestones. So cute.
Well….even though it is September….after seeing all of this holiday loveliness it is hard not to get into the “Christmas Spirit”!!!!! Love it all!!!!!
What a fabulous release! I love the sentiment set very much. It so stylish and unique. Would be so awesome if I can win this. Fantastic job as always by the PTI gals. 🙂
Absolutely gorgeous!!! How do you guys do it??
It is too hard to pick a favorite! I love it all!
Everything you showed us gets me excited. Can’t wait to try out some of your suggestions. It’s time to get started with Christmas cards. Christmas will be here before you know it.
Love it ALL! I love how you gals make products so interchangeable…the lights on the Christmas tree!!!! Awesome!!!
Wow loads of inspiration. I can’t believe it’s time for Christmas releases already, but I love them all.
What a beautiful post! I love all the photo’s and the candy cane video and the Papertrey Stamps are fantastic! I always look forward to this time of the month!
Christmas is my favorite time of the year, with these new stMps sets I’m going to be a very busy mouse this year making Christmas cards. Thanks for sharing your gorgeous cards with us.
Wow! I am so inspired! I’m one of those crafters who prefers to stick to traditional holiday colour schemes and steer clear of contemporary models. The way you have demonstrated the use of this month’s new dies and sets has shifted my thinking and got my creative juices flowing. I can’t wait for the rest of the countdown! Thanks for doing a wonderful job, as always.

Oh my. I’m all over the lights set and the sentiments for sure. And I’m certain that the design team will sell me even more than that as the week goes on. I love Christmas stamps!
I can hardly believe it’s time to think about Christmas cards again!!! I am a huge candy cane fan so this set is just right for me!!
Lovin’ the lights!!! (and everything else, of course!)

If this is a repeat, I’m sorry. However, I must have that light set. I am in love with the colors used on the first card. pink and blue for Christmas? Love it.
This really puts me in the mood to make Christmas Cards!! I LOVE Dawn’s Candy Cane Christmas set with matching dies. Nothing better than hot cocoa with a peppermint stick.
Wow!! I am already blown away with this release and can’t believe there is more to come! 🙂 I love the candy canes and that mug with the slit–such clever detailing like this makes PTI shine! Really like the look of the heat embossed light strings, too.

I love the die cut for the mug and the holiday lights! Once again, beautiful projects!
Looking at these cards is really putting me int he holiday crafting spirit. I love the sentiment set and the candy cane set…I just love it all.
I think the stylish sentiments set is my favorite today!

I love it all! I can never get enough Christmas goodies. So pretty and festive.
ooooooooh Christmas…how exciting. Love the candy canes and the large flat peppermint candy (with the scored wrapper!!). Everything is so creative and beyond festive!! THANKS for sharing the inspiration!
One of the things I love best about the holidays is sharing a cup of mint hot chocolate with my girlfriends! What fun to see the “mug” and candy cane stamps! I feel a “hot chocolate” or “friendship tea” combo with matching card may be on the agenda for these gals this Christmas!
Oh my gosh.. I don’t even know where to begin. I just love the creative way you presented all of these awesome new products. Hard to say what is my favorite! I do know I will be buying the Christmas tree die, the Holly Jolly die collection, the sentiment and the Holiday lights. I’m so excited!
Cute projects everyone! Love the new color btw 🙂
Lovely, as always!
I love everything that was shown today!!!! I am especially lovin the dies, all the gifts this year is going to get an amazing make over 🙂
Holiday lights and candy canes … you’re making me wish for December! Awe-inspiring projects Nichole, these are just fantastic!
Soo cute! Love Christmas sentiments of any kind and can’t wait for this set to come out! The samples were so cute and made me want the stamp sets even more so kudos to you! 🙂 I think the mug and candy cane set was my fave though so far.
Totally cute and wonderful! Thank you for sharing your talent with us each month!

This package of dies and stamps has everthing I could want for my Christmas cards. I absolutely the string of lights on the Christmas tree. Once again you all have outdone yourselves.
I love the cup and candy cane sets. And the line from Elf too. I just printed that a few weeks ago from a site to put in a frame to hang for the season.
Oh wow I love Christmas and everything about it especially candy canes!! My little girl was born on Christmas Day so it’s even more special! I think this is my favourite release so far! 😉 Fabulous! 😉 Hugs x

That Holiday Lights set is just what I needed to kick me in Christmas mode. And those photos….stunning!Time to crank up the Christmas tunes!!!!
I am absolutely speechless! These sets, dies and paper are just what I was dreaming of! Gorgeous!
[I am 99% sure my comment didn’t go thru, as the words to copy for security didn’t come up.] So again – I LOVE, LOVE. LOVE the Christmas tree as you used it – from the popping color combo to the lights and cord.

I want it all! That has never happened to me before…normally I like everything but something isn’t quite my style or I don’t think I would use it much…not this time! I love all of it! I can’t wait to start on my Christmas cards…maybe this year I will actually get them out on time!! And…of course…gorgeous cards once again!
Wow, really fun sets! I find myself humming Christmas tunes while scrolling through your post. I can’t wait to see this release and get creative. Christmas is my favorite time of the year for sure!!
Wasn’t planning on my whole monthly budget going to PTI but after only one day my plan is quickly falling apart. 🙂 Love the Christmas tree card….so simple yet elegant but then again I can’t think of Christmas without peppermint sticks….love all of the ideas so far. Especially like the use of stamps or dies we may already have (PTI of course) which reminds us of ways we hadn’t thought to use them.
OMG – I love all of today’s products!! I don’t have the die cut tree but now I REALLY want it to pair with the Holiday lights set!
Wow! Candy canes and holiday lights are two of my favorite holiday icons — I can’t wait to get my paws on both of those new sets…and the rest is great, too!
WOW WOW WOW – wonderful new dies love the new paper pack and so far what I see with the stamp sets! Gonna be hard to decide what to get……….
I love the simplicity and elegance of the new stamps and dies. Can’t wait to get my hands on them. Thanks, for a sneek peak. I loved the card with the untraditional color combo.
What fabulous images and sentiments! Love the style and the scale.
Oh, I love me some candy canes! I really like the card with the tree and blingy lights! It’s beginning to look a lot like…trouble for my wallet!
Wow. This is definitely putting me in the mood to start Christmas cards. Maybe this year I’ll have them done sooner than December!
I love the die cut tree with the blue bling for lights. Absolutely perfect.
