Taylored Expressions - Merry Christmas! 8-)

Hi all! And a Very Happy Black Friday to you! 8-) Hope you all had a Wonderful, Family filled & Yummy Thanksgiving, for all those that celebrate! 8-) Well, today I'm back with a quick post, to share my latest Taylored Expressions creation inspired by TE's Darling New Calendar Critters Stamp set, TE's New Calendar Critters Coordinating Dies, TE's New Build a Scene Calendar Dies & TE's New Mini Colorblock Cutting Plate as well, to create this Sweet Christmas card...8-)
Aren't these little critters just the CUTESTE Ever!! ;-) I Just Love them!! And I had so much fun coloring them up too! ;-)  Well I started off by stamping my Sweet Calendar Critters images with Memento Tuxedo black, colored them up with my trusty Copics, then cut them out with the help of TE's Calandar Critter Coordinating dies & popped them up with a bit of foam tape onto my Card's BG... 8-)
All my Mats & BG's were created with a combo of TE's Toffee & Sugar Cube CS's, Simple Stories Clause & Co. Collection, TE's Build a Scene Christmas Paper Pack, TE's New Mini Colorblock Cutting Plate and TE's New Build a Scene Calendar Dies as well. And to finish it all up I stamped my TE Woodland Winter Sentiment onto a TE Mini Colorblock Die cut and popped it up with a  bit of foam tape for some fun dimension... ;-)

Here are the items I used for my project today...




Hope you all have a Wonderful rest of your Thanksgiving Holiday weekend & Thanks so much of dropping in! 8-)

Taylored Expressions - Happy New Year! 8-)

Hi all! And a Very Happy Thursday to you! 8-) Hope you all had a Wonderful week so far! 8-) Well, today I'm back with a quick post, to share my latest Taylored Expressions creation inspired by TE's Awesome New Happy New Year Die, TE's New Little Bits - Celebration Confetti Dies, TE's previously released Sheet Music Embossing Folder, along with TE's  Metallic Neutrals CS pack & Wedding Sequins as well to create this Fun little New Years Shaker Card!...8-)
Can I just tell you I am so excited about this Cool New TE Happy New Year Die!! I have always wanted to send out cards for New Years each year, but with all the craziness of Thanksgiving and Christmas with relatives visiting, all the cooking, baking, decorating and card making for these two Special Days, I never had the time or energy to even think about putting together Cards for New Year. lol Well this Awesome New TE Die, has solved that challenge by making it Super Duper Quick and Easy to put together Fabulous New Years Cards! Yay!! 8-)
Well I started off by creating my Shaker focal panel by adhering my Festive TE Happy New Year Die cut to a bit of Plastic sheeting with Tomboy Mono Multi liquid glue. Next I added Foam tape and a few TE Wedding Sequins and TE's New Little Bits Celebration Confetti Die cuts  as well and sandwiched them to my TE Embossed Sheet Music Backing, matted it up and then attached it to my Card BG...8-)
And Just in case, here's a Super Easy SCS tutorial HERE  as well, for those of you who are new to creating this type of shaker card. 8-) All my Mats and B's were created with a combo of TE's Metallic Neutrals CS's, TE's Buttercream Frosting  & Red Pepper Premium CS's, along with Simple Stories Clause & Co. patterned papers as well.  And to finish it all up I just added a little extra sparkle with a touch of Stardust Stickles... 8-)

Here are the items I used for my project today...




Hope you all have a Fabulous day & Thanks so much for dropping in! 8-)

Taylored Expresions November Release Day - Sealed With Love! 8-)

Hi All! And a Very Happy Thursday to you! 8-) Hope you are having a Great week so far! Haven't you just Loved ALL the AWESOME Sneak Peeks the last few days!! I know I sure have!! Talk about LOTS of Amazing New Goodies!! Whoo Hoo! And just in time for the Holidays too! ;-) Well I've got some Really Great News!... All of the new Taylored Expressions products are now available in the New Department. Yay!! Time to do some Shopping! Whoo Hoo! ;-) 

And today I am Super Thrilled to be sharing a couple Fun November New Release Projects with you all featuring TE's Brand New Darling Sealed With Love stamp set & TE's Brand New Envelope Seals along with TE's Brand New Stitched Banner Stacklets & TE's previously Released Stitched Circles & Pinking Circles Stacklets to create a couple of Fun Christmas Gift sets... 8-)

I love putting together festive little Gift Sets for the Holidays. They're just perfect for giving a little Christmas cheer to friends and co-workers. ;-) This year I thought I'd create fun little post holders with matching gift bag and envelope for their Christmas cards too. And for this one I chose TE's Toffee & Sugar Cube Premium CS along with Simple Stories Clause & Co. Collection... ;-)
I created my fun little post it note holder with the help of this tutorial HERE. Love how quick and easy these are to make too, so I whipped up a bunch to have on hand for little last minute gifts just in case...;-) I started off by stamping my New TE Sealed with Love sentiments onto TE's New Kraft Envelope Seals and embossed them with White Embossing Powder. 
Next I layered my embossed envelope seals onto TE's Stitched Circle & Pinking Circle Stacklets Die Cuts &  popped them onto my Cute Gift Bags with a bit of foam tape. My gift Bags were created with the help of We R's Gift Bag Punch Board & TE's New Stitched Banner Stacklets Dies as well... 8-)
For my Gift Set envelopes, I also added some fun detail with the help of TE's previously released Certified Mail Art Stamp set as well... 8-) Now on to my 2nd set, Yay!..;-)
Can you tell, I was having some fun with these, lol.. ;-) I just LOVE the combination of kraft with Christmas colors & patterned papers. Just looks Cozy, Rustic & Festive all at the same time. ;-)
Also wanted to share, I found my little mini gel pens at Staples. And they fit just perfectly in my little post it note holders! Love that! 8-)
I used the same TE Sealed with Love Stamp set, TE Certified Mail Art Stamp Set, Combo of TE Dies, Kraft Envelope Seals and the same Simple Stories Clause & Co. collection on this Set too. And did all the same steps as well, Accept I added TE's Red Pepper Premium CS to the mix this time around ...;-)

Here are the items I used for my projects today... 8-)



Hope you all have a Super day and Thanks so much for Visiting!
