VEGGIES!

The Taylored Expressions Seeds and Such kit has been fun to make a few summer time garden cards.  I stenciled all the veggies and then die cut them out.  I used the TE Knock on Wood background stamp for a simple layer.  In used the TE Frame in Frame 3 for the black stitched border.  It fit perfectly around the seed packet!  
 

SEEDS for Summer!

I recently purchased the Taylored Expressions Seeds & Such kit.  I followed a video by Heather Nichols to create a card and a gift card holder.  Here is is link to the video - fun projects!

GIRAFFES!

A cute little treat ready to go for my Book Club next week.  We read the book "West With Giraffes" by Lynda Rutledge.  This is a perfect addition to the table.  Thank you Doreen for the giraffe die - so cute!

 

Cards, Cards and more Cards!

I saw this picture in my camera roll from several years ago.  It made me happy! I thought it was a fun variety of cards.  I might have to recreate a few of them!  

 

BIRTHDAY CARDS

I recently visited Doreen and I die cut out the Happy Birthday.  I thought I should go ahead and make them into cards.  These were quick and easy and I think many of them will work for guy cards based on my color choices.  

 

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY

      

I made these cards a while ago to have ready to go for anniversary cards.  I used the Taylored Expressions Summer Nights Layering Stencils.  For the gold I used the Glitter Grab and then gold foil.  The sentiment is from Taylored Expression called Anniversary - The Inside Scoop.  

THE GREETERY

When I saw this release from The Greetery a few years ago I couldn't help myself.  I absolutely had to recreate this look with the citrus slices.  I didn't take a picture of the completed projects but I used them as tags on a Christmas gift.  I still love the look of these and will definitely make more.  

 

HAPPY 4th!

HAPPY 4th OF JULY!  I have two crafty friends that sent me a card in the mail.  Aren't they so patriotic?  🩷🤍💙

 

BIRTHDAY BLOWOUT!

I made these cards a while ago but recently used it again.  It is Taylored Expressions Birthday Blowout Stencils and embossing folder.  I used a variety of card base colors and sentiments.  

WILD FLOWER STENCIL

I made a postage collage card with my friend, Doreen.  We were both stenciling together, it was more fun with a friend!  We used the Waffle Flower Wild Flower stencil.  I decided to add a birthday sentiment to mine.  

TE SUMMER SCHOOL

 

Last Saturday, I was in Summer School with Taylored Expressions.  We made 4 cards all using foil.  We learned a few fun foiling techniques including double foiling.  Taylored Expressions sent a kit in the mail and then we had a live class with Taylor and Susan.  If you have to go to summer school, this was the best way to go!

Sunflowers!

This is a card I made a while ago, I'm pretty sure everything was from Lawn Fawn.  I thought it would be perfect for my Mom's birthday as she lives in the Sunflower State 🌻🌻

PATTERN PLAY

I had fun with the Concord & 9th Pattern Play cover plate & dies.  I die cut the cover plate with an off white heavyweight card stock.  I used Concord & 9th card stock colors in Watermelon, Nectar, Sprout & Pistachio to add a few popped up shapes to the panel.  The Thanks die cut is from Altenew.  

Same card design - the sentiment is from Taylored Expressions called Bold Birthday.  I added a few clear dew drops to both cards.  I still have this set on my desk and I'd like to try a few more color combinations.  Maybe something more masculine.  

IT'S YOUR SPECIAL DAY

A fun card using the free with purchased flower stamps from Taylored Expressions.  Everything is TE, except for the background cover plate is Fall Flourish from Honey Bee Stamps.  Here is a link to most of the products that I used at Taylored Expressions.  

JUST BECAUSE

Another fun card designed by Heather Nichols using the Year in Bloom stamps and dies.  I started by stamping the Large Lattice background on Latte card stock with Sugar Cube ink.  I used the Diamond Stacklets to add the diamond shape in each opening.  The flowers are stamped and die cut - I only used three Copic markers to color the flowers.  YG01, YG25, B0000.  I used the Timeless Greeting sentiment and die.  The gems are Bits & Pieces Glossy White Rhinestones.
