 I love how Nichol used the Fa la la la la Border to separate the patterns of Perfectly Plaid Winter paper. Using one pattern on the diagonal and the other straight adds interest to the background. The cute Winter Sparrows with their music notes and sweet sentiment coordinate beautifully!

With a title from Winter Big Scripty Words, some simple stamping and beautifully coordinated Perfectly Plaid Winter papers, Melissa created a layout that let’s her photos shine!

Elise used the smaller patterns from the Perfectly Plaid Winter 6×6 paper pad to create the sky and frame her charming critter-filled winter scene!

I love Audrey‘s adorable seal from Narwhal and Friends! His cap is die cut from Perfectly Plaid Winter and Black Licorice cardstock. She completed her card with the ice from Critters in the Arctic, lots of Mini Snowflakes and the perfect sentiment from Snow Cool!

Elena layered a Stitched Scalloped Border edged paper with a coordinating pattern as a base for the cute mini Snow Cool scene! The greeting is white-embossed on a Narwhal cardstock die cut Everyday Sentiment Banner.

 Lizzy created cute gift packages from 6×6 size Perfectly Plaid Winter that she die cut using Dotted Rectangle and  Dotted Square Stackables! She tied them up using Put a Bow on It mini bows! I love the glittery Scripty Merry that plays so nicely with a Merry Messages sentiment!

Latisha decorated a simple kraft gift bag by mixing and matching her plaids! The tags, the Scripty Merry and the paper strips all coordinate perfectly!

I love how Chari paper-pieced the Making Frosty Friends snowmen with coordinating Perfectly Plaid papers!

The frosty colors of Perfectly Plaid Winter provide the perfect backdrop for Lynnette‘s Snow Cool scene! This Scalloped Treat Box is a sweet way to package up a little holiday gift!

Yainea created a fun scene for her shaker window with Stitched Mountain Borders and Stitched Tree Borders. The cute critters from Cheery Christmas and the Winter Big Scripty Words greeting are the perfect finish!

Now I have a quick little video to introduce the Perfectly Plaid Winter collection! I hope you enjoy it! You can watch it here or at our YouTube channel.

  57. Love this paper. So adorable. My favorite winter tradition is get together with the family in our traditional "tamalada" witch is a tamale party and family reunion. Thanks!

  60. I love all the holiday projects with the pretty blue and white theme! I'm not a big fan of traditional red and green so this really speaks to me. My favourite tradition is cutting into the big plum pudding my father-in-law bakes for us every year and ships to us from the west coast of Canada. It's delicious!

  64. I love the blue plaids for Holiday cards! Pretty! Our favorite family tradition is Cookie Day, which happens about 4 days before Christmas. My three daughters join me (two are married) and now my granddaughter.. and we bake our hearts out all day long, listening to Christmas music and laughing the whole time.

  66. Fun stuff with gorgeous plaids! As for winter traditions, I honestly can't think of any that aren't tied to Christmas. I guess simply watching my son play in the snow if we get any is about it.

  67. These are all fabulous!!
    One of my favorite winter traditions is hanging up the Christmas lights with my family, decorating the tree, and going to all the winter festivals! (I think that's more than one favorite. lol) 🙂

  75. Oh such sweet projects today…great to be inspired. I love the walrus and snowy owl plaid paper. In winter I love to go for a walk in the freshly falling snow.
    DebbieC

  76. Your plaids are always fantastic. This one is my favorite so far! I am not a cold weather person so my favorite activity is reading in my chair with my afghan over my legs in front of the fireplace. I love looking out the window at the beautiful pristine snowfall.

  86. I love having a Christmas nightcap of flavored cream vodka and my favorite Russian coffee that my dear niece sends me every year from her trip to St. Petersburg. It is wonderful stuff!

  88. The Perfectly Plaid Winter is fabulous. One fun tradition we have is to go see the gingerbread houses. It is a local charity event where architects and chefs team together to create big themed gingerbread houses.

  89. My favorite tradition at Christmas is singing carols with my family while we drive during the season. Additionally, I love the plaid! So adorable.

  91. My favorite tradition at Christmas is decorating the trees (I have four) and making an ornament per year for our homemade ornament tree. Last year I made an ornament from Toboggan Together and the snow globe set.

  92. I have a huge problem with your plaid papers… I love them so much I hoard them waiting for and extra special project worthy of them. lol! Looking forward to adding this lovely new set to my hoard! My parent's anniversary is in the winter so we always get together for a steak dinner and I always make them a handmade card to go with their gifts.

  93. I am in love with the plaid! And everyone's projects are simply amazing. And plaid snowmen?! I've never seen one before and I must say, why not?! They are perfect!! I can't even imagine them being anything else but plaid. 🙂 I'm smitten. lol
    My favorite winter tradition is decorating my Christmas tree. It's about 80% handmade ornaments.

  95. This is my first year making Christmas cards and ornaments for the family. My 2 youngest kids and I have decided to make it a tradition. Kinda new at all of this and we can't wait to try all of these lovely creation. Wish us luck.. lol

  98. I have always enjoyed making and decorating cookies with my girls. We always watch Charlie Brown Christmas even though we are all pretty grown up now. Love the new paper!

  101. Fabulous creations! Your samples make me want it all! And the plaid snowmen… awesome!
    I love baking for the holidays and then delivering packages of cookies to friends and family!
    Another winter tradition is to pack up for an overnight at beautiful Lake Tahoe!

  103. Love all of the projects today, such a great DT. I don't know about a specific winter holiday, we have lots of Christmas traditions,and I always like to make sure we do something fun for Valentine's day too.

  105. I love Chari's plaid snowmen! And is it cheating to say I love all Christmas traditions? Cookie making, decorating, wrapping presents, looking at Christmas lights, singing Christmas songs, making my own Christmas cards…I just love it all!

  106. I have to say that I LOVE LOVE LOVE all of these plaid papers! I think I've already got them all from this release too! 🙂
    My favorite Winter activity is probably baking! It makes the house smell good and the oven helps keep it warm!! LOL!

  107. I adore plaid paper. It's my favorite go to designer paper. These are gorgeous patterns and colors. My favorite winter activity is cooking from scratch. During the summer I'm likely to make quick meals and not get too fancy. Just throw something on the grill or throw together a salad. But during the winter I love to make soups and fancy meals and heat up my house with the oven. So much fun!

  109. The Winter Plaid Collection color theme is my favorite. Reminds me of my favorite ice cream, Mint Chocolate Chip. My favorite tradiation is gathering my husband and our children to bake homemade cookies & fudge for gifting to friends, family, teachers, customers, and local business owners! Be merry & share the creative, delicious treats!♡

  114. My favorite winter tradition is being around family and drinking hot chocolate..love this plaid paper collection.

  122. The day after Thanksgiving we go to the Holiday Stroll in a nearby town and visit stores offering treats and one church offers a meal. There are carolers, reindeer, Santa and the Nativity with a parade, too.

  123. These fantastic projects are a game-changer for me. I already knew I loved the scripty words, but the winter papers hadn't really "hit me" yet. (I already loved the Fall Perfectly Plaid, though!) After seeing today's designs, I am totally liking the Winter Plaid as well! Great job by all the designers!

  133. Love the collection! A favorite winter tradition is making tamales with my family. Every year we say it's easier just to buy them, but the memories we make are just priceless. 💜

  134. I love these beautiful plaids! My favorite winter tradition would still be snow angels and snow forts on the first falling snow. And of course, hot chocolate afterward.

  140. My favorite winter tradition is baking lots of holiday cookies with my niece (her mom and my mom are not into baking). We make lots of treats and after a light meal of homemade stew or soup, we gorge on cookies and watch holiday movies! 🙂

  141. My favorite winter tradition is right after a fresh snowfall- going outside and making footprints. It always makes me smile! I LOVE the winter collection- it's my favorite paper collection you have!

  142. Oh dear… these projects are just too awesome. I wish all the dt:s would make videos of making all the cards… that would make me so happy! I've only had time to make one card using these plaid papers, but it was appreciated. 🙂 I can't really think of a winter tradition not involving Christmas somehow. Staying home, drinking warm tea is not so much a tradition as a survival strategy (it's cooold outside).

  143. Well, we don't have snow in Texas winter, but it is very nice weather to enjoy at home, my favorite tradition is drink hot chocolate with cinnamon rolls opening Christmas gifts!

  144. One of our favorite family traditions is taking a walk around the neighborhoods near us where all the homes (in certain neighborhoods ) are fully decorated and lit up. So fun to see with our little one.

  146. I love all the new LF papers. And all the projects are so cute. My favorite winter tradition is having a Christmas Eve tea with my family. We try all different teas, sweets and savories. I would love to do this more often.

  147. I don't know if this is good or not but every time I see one of these posts my shopping list just keeps getting longer!! Hats off to the design team! Love sitting by the fireplace after being out on a cold winter's night! Thanks for the chance to play : )

  149. I adore the plaid papers and the winter is no exception!! I have so many things I love about the holidays it's hard to choose! I always enjoy the holiday movies on Hallmark in addition to the traditional favorites like the Charlie Brown special, Christmas Vacation, etc! 🙂

  150. My favorite tradition is drinking egg nog, having the Christmas tunes on while decorating the Christmas tree. It's even better when the grandkids are here to help.

  159. Winter doesn't get TOO cold down here in the South, but I know when my kids' winter break rolls around, we take great delight in snuggling underneath blankets to watch movies or start up the firepit outside and drink hot cocoa! :p

  160. I love this paper and so of course I already own it! My favourite tradition is driving around the neighbourhood to see how everyone has decorated for the holidays, it's magical.

  161. I love all the plaid collections and I love what the ladies did with the Winter plaids today. We don't have much of a "winter" where I live, so I don't really have a winter tradition other than my holiday traditions.

  162. i don't think i have a favorite winter tradition unless it's watching the snow fall when i'm warm and cuddled inside. 🙂 i love the winter plaid – my go to holiday colors!

  163. One of my favourite winter traditions is pulling out the Christmas decorations on 1 Dec and putting up the tree with Muppets Christmas Carol in the background 🙂

    My FAVE Winter tradition is baking cookies for Christmas!
    Thanks so much for sharing with us!

  180. Oh, that paper is so gorgeous! Love the subtle colour in it. As we have all gotten older, our traditions have changed…My favourite though is going to my sister's for breakfast Christmas morning. We watch our niece open her gifts, and then everyone comes to our place for lunch. Lots of family time!

  187. Super cute designs by the DT! They are so talented. My fav holiday tradition is playing Christmas music–it can't start until after Thanksgiving, and ends on Christmas day. Every year, my DH and I get one new CD to add to the mix.

  200. My favorite winter tradition is baking yummy treats for my family and watching my son play in the snow and serve him some hot cocoa when he comes in. Such pretty stamps! Thank you for your unique designs!

  202. So many darling creations with these fun plaid papers. My favorite Winter tradition is cuddling up with a blanket on the sofa (by the fireplace) and watching all my favorite holiday movies for the year. 🙂

  206. My favorite winter tradition is making Christmas cookies and decorating them with my daughter and granddaughter and doing winter crafts with them. I LOVE this new paper!!!

  207. My favorite winter tradition is making Christmas cookies and decorating them with my daughter and granddaughter and doing winter crafts with them. I LOVE this new paper!!!

  222. Every year I host an ornament making party. It's so much fun to get my family and friends together for a night of crafting and laughing.

  224. Sitting by the window on a snowy day wrapped in a blanket and sipping hot chocolate with lots of marshmallows. I love your plaids and I love all these cards. The designers have done a great job!

  228. These plaids look so great on each project.
    My favorite tradition is baking all the Christmas goodies as well as decorating the tree while listening to Christmas music.

  230. I just LOVE this perfectly plaid paper!!! It is so perfect for all winter projects and I really love plaid in general. Love all the sweet projects! One of our most favorite winter traditions is to go riding around the neighborhoods to look at all the homes decorated for the holiday… we love to see all the lights on the homes and the lawns decorated with blow-ups and animated reindeer and snowmen! And usually on this same night that we drive around looking at all the beautiful lights, once we get home.. we drink a hot cup of cocoa while we watch Miracle on 34th Street. And yes, we do have peppermint sticks and marshmallows in our cocoa! 🙂
    Hugs,
    Jo

  232. I love the winter colors of this paper pad and the blues would also work nicely for Hanukkah 🙂 my favorite tradition is probably picking out the Christmas tree but I also enjoy the lighting of the menorah!

  233. Winter tradition for both Xmas eve and Xmas playing games with my family.
    One time year I fly home to see my family so made it our tradition play game and relax

  242. GORGEOUS plaids, FABULOUS projects to INSPIRE!!!
    I have two favourite traditions, the 1st is before Christmas, making one-of-a-kind cards to send family & friends, the other is having the family gather together for a traditional hot Christmas lunch, FUN times with plenty of roast turkey & plum pudding left over to enjoy on Boxing Day 🙂

  243. When you say winter I think January and February and that happens to be my granddaughters birthdays. We take them to Disneyland and they get dressed up as princesses. They are so cute.

  248. Getting together with family & friends & of course all of the food! There is too much cuteness with these projects!!

  264. I love how everyone of these gorgeous projects looks so much more gorgeous with the Perfectly Plaid!! My fav' tradition is making all my yummy baked goodies!! Funny how I can get surprise visitors when they know that I'm baking and how "there's no need to wrap these" comes across as if they are helping me!! LOL!!

  265. Our winter tradition is to buy our children a Christmas ornament each year that symbolizes what their life was like for that year. For instance, if my daughter was REALLY into The Little Mermaid, I bought her a mermaid ornament; if she was into ice skating, I bought her a ice skater on a compact mirror ornament. It's fun to see how my daughters have changed throughout the years.

  277. My favorite Christmas tradition is getting the whole family together to bake Christmas cookies and decorate the Christmas tree while we listen to our favorite Christmas music!

  280. I love everything I have seen so far. You guys are geniuses at creating beautiful and fun cards.
    My favorite winter tradition is many and varied. I love to make soup and we don't like cold soup so we only eat it when its cold. One of my faves is Mac & Cheese soup along with mom's chicken noodle soup. I also love to bake cookies but its kind of hot in the summer to turn on the oven and bake cookies. My faves are cut out cookies. I also love to decorate for the holidays. I love to turn on the Christmas music or Christmas specials while I am decorating, anything to get in the holiday spirit.

  283. Loving Perfectly Plaid Winter!!!
    My favorite winter tradition is taking our sweet little Beagle up into the mountains for a snow play day!!! She absolutely LOVES to run and prance around in the snow and sniffs around til jackfrost starts nipping at her nose…and mine, lol!!! We bring a thermos full of hot cocoa and fresh doughnuts and just have a most delightful time! It's definitely my most favorite winter family tradition!!

  284. These colors could be used all year around, love them. My favorite winter tradition is walking in the snow (if we have some), skying, baking cookies, dressing up the tree and decorate the apartment for Christmas.

  293. My favorite winter tradition is to wake up super early on St. Lucia morning (13th Of december). Make coffee, light every candle I have, heat up some traditional swedish saffron buns and pick a few home made gingerbread cookies put everything on a Tracy and crawl up in our comfy Sofia and at 07:00am watch the candlelit Lucia procession on tv. It is BEAUTIFUL!!!!! Kindly/Vanessa

  294. My favorite winter tradition is decorating home for Christmas and cooking the sweet goodies.
