Not everybody wants, needs or can afford the complete set and to be perfectly honest you don't need them all.
I have always said ... Start with the six pens sets and build up as you want from there ... as you can afford to buy them.
So all I have used here is the set of Ice Greys.
If you are new to these pens then please take a look at Spectrum Noir Introduction which will give you a better explanation of what they are all about.
But I thought that it would be a good idea to show how each of the colour sets stand alone and just some of the ways that they can work for you.
I am going to put together a series of videos for each set of pens and start with the greys ... and show several cards with them and how they can all look different. I hope you will find it useful.
This card is a very simplified version and the digital image is from Just Inklined

I have used Spellbinders Create a Flake 3 and I have added Micro Beads to each flake and layered them together, then added a clear gemstone to the centres.
The sentiment tag is Fancy Framed Tags 2
The ribbon is Seam Binding and it is an inexpensive addition to your "Stash".
The Diamante Swirl is from Want2Scrap and I have added Glamour Dust to the snow, trees and the sentiment.... but it doesn't show up very well on the photgraph.
