Announcing the Winter Seasonal Series of Distress Ink!!
We were amazed at the overwhelming response to the Fall Seasonal Distress Inks, so we've stepped up production to meet the anticipated demand of the gorgeous Winter Distress Ink palette. And, here they are at last: introducing the three colors of the Winter 2011 Distress Ink Seasonal Series!
This limited edition collection of Distress Inks are a wintery mix of colors just right for the holiday season: Evergreen Bough (a beautiful green with a hint of blue), Festive Berries (a true Christmas red) and Iced Spruce (an incredible greyish blue).
For a closer look at these gorgeous winter hues, check out Tim's video!
These sets are now available, so check your local arts & crafts and scrapbooking stores now!! Remember, the Winter Seasonal Distress Inks are only being produced in a limited quantity, so when they're gone, they're gone. Be sure to scoop yours up while you still can! For more info check out the press release.
We'd like to give away three sets to our blog readers, so for your chance to win, just tell us: How do you Distress during the winter season? For example, maybe you use Distress Inks for making Christmas cards, or perhaps you decorate ornaments with Distress Crackle Paint and Distress Stickles? Let us know!!

Rock Candy Crackle Paint is one one of my favorite ways to make everything look "frozen"

I use Distress inks on EVERY project I create! It just isnt finished until its all inked up! "If its not worth inking, its not worth doing"... right?! I LOVE Rock Candy Stickles on my holiday projects! The shimmer is just so perfect! Thanks for the chance to win!

Oops! Got excited and forgot about what I use distress for.... Everything! Use the inks, crackle and Stickles on almost virtually every project from scrapbooking to mixed media.

I use the Distress inks for my Thanksgiving cards and my Christmas cards. I also love the reinkers to make my own mists for my ribbon on my gifts.

Oh, I cannot wait to get my hands on the new colors!! I'm new to Ranger products, but after the AMAZING 'All Things Ranger' weekend I attended at the end of August, I've been an inking and embossing fool :) Currently, I'm making a TON of Christmas cards for the elderly in nursing homes as part of a charitable swap on swap-bot.com. So far, I have just shy of 20 cards, but I'm going for 100. My Distressed Inks are getting a serious work out, and the new Christmas colors would be a HUGE help!

I like to scrapbook the holidays and Distress is my go to for accents for the pages every time. Cards and tags are also on the "to be made" list every year. Thanks for a chance at new great colors..xoxo

Rock Candy is my go-to element for the holidays! It makes so many things look like they've got snow! :)

I distress my cards, and my altered projects. Working on Disney Christmas, so these will be perfect.

Love the new colors - I use Ranger Distress inks on a lot of my projects!

I use it mostly for cards, I am so ready for Tim HoltZ Christmas tags. I will use it for a dollhouse I am working on, well it is really a vendors type store that is Christmas themed and think the new colors will work for the walls inside and out side of my "Christmas shack"

Well, since I use distress inks on nearly everything I don't think these will be limited to winter play in my studio, but at the moment I am on an Christmas Tags kick so that would be first.

Posted by: Anita | November 1, 2011 at 12:31 PM
Woo Hoo! Amazing colors once again!! I plan to use them for my Christmas cards...as well as some ornaments and other holidays projects.
