HELLO FALL

I spent some time cutting out various colors of the Taylored Expressions Tiny Trinkets Autumn.  I also used the new TE Checkered cutting plate for the little squares.  

I did add a mushroom from another die set.  The sentiment is from My Favorite Things.  It's a cute Fall card - and I found a tiny sticker and put Ohio State on my to go cup!

LOVE THE FALL COLORS!

I created this card with a combination of Taylored Expressions and The Greetery, two of my favorites!  The pumpkins, gourd and sentiment are from The Greetery.  The background weave and the thin border are from Taylored Expressions.  I did a bit of blending on the dies.  Pretty fall colors!  

TAYLORED EXPRESSIONS COMBO CLUB

I had fun playing with the new Taylored Expressions Combo Club called Once Upon a Vine.  This is the last one in the 6 month series that I signed up for.  This time it was a stamp and die combo with plenty of add on's to purchase, which I did!  I really like this one.  It makes for a quick and easy card with lots of sentiment options.  The bottom two I used foil it's and they are so pretty!

SIMPLY STATED

Lordy you would think I wouldn't need another sentiment set but here I go again!  I spent some time stamping and foiling these sentiments so they are ready to go when I need them.  They are tucked in the back of the storage pocket - I will thank myself later!

SWEETHEART BLOOMS

This was one of the things from the Taylored Expressions Second Chance Release that I was excited about.  I already had the Sweetheart Blooms layering stencils as a free gift with purchase from a few months ago.  This die is a nice addition to add more detail to the heart.  I ran the die cut through first and then did the stenciling over the top.  They turned out so pretty - I'll get them made into cards soon!  

 

ALL PLANNED OUT 6 FROM TE

I made this card with the new Taylored Expressions All Planned Out 6 die set.  The dies all line up nicely on an A2 card base.  I inked up the edges of the ovals and rectangles.  The flowers are from Year in Bloom.  I decided not to color any of the flowers and keep it real simple.  I want to make another card and do the coloring.  The sentiment strip is from Simon Says.  There are so many images that would fit in these shapes - I'll be looking for more ideas!

DAY 2 - TAYLORED EXPRESSIONS COMBO CLUB QUAD

Different colors, same Taylored Expressions Combo Club Quad as yesterday.  The colors on the streamers reminded me of Halloween so I went with it.  I only foiled the tree card with Pewter foil on those darker leaves.  All the other cards I decided to leave the black showing - I liked the look!

DAY 1 - CARDS FROM THE COMBO CLUB QUAD

My completed cards from the Taylored Expressions new Combo Club Quad.  I did gold foil all of these for a pretty shine!  Three birthday cards and one sympathy card.  I liked how they turned out.  

FLOWER VASE

This is completed card from the stenciling I have been working on with the new Taylored Expressions Create in Quad. I used all Taylored Expressions except for the sentiment is from The Greetery.  

FOR EVERY OCCASION CREATE-IN-QUADS

I had some time to play with the new Taylored Expresssions Combo club Quad over the weekend.  Here is my first go at stenciling each quad.  I somewhat followed a color combo that was recommended with the Quad.  I decided to do more traditional colors on the tree.  The Combo Club Quad is called For Every Occasion.  Stay tuned for the cards I plan to make out of these four panels. 

VILLA

A recent release from The Greetery!  This Jumbo Villa die was so fun to put together.  I followed a video that Laura Bassen did using all Concord & 9th card stock.  Turned out so cute!  

The second villa I used my scraps of card stock.  It looks kinda green in this picture but it is more of an off white/tan color.  I added in the door and put window outlines in the arches - I'm not sure if I love the square window panes in the arched openings but anyway it was fun to make!  

PERENNIAL SCENES

Thanks Doreen for inspiring me to get out this pretty Taylored Expressions Perennial Scenes layering stencil.  The colors are so bright and cheery.  Ink colors are all Taylored Expressions - Lollipop, Pumpkin, Cilantro and Sweet Basil.  My panels are foiled with Gold foil but it doesn't show up too well in the photo. 

I only used one of the panels so far to make a card.  I used the new Taylored Expressions Fineline Frame embossing folder from my recent Combo Club goodies.  The sentiment is from Concord & 9th called You are the Best.  

ATTABOY!

I was in need of a few more guy birthday cards.  I bought this Attaboy stamp set from Unity Stamps a while back.  They were quick and easy cards.  I found patterned paper that seemed somewhat masculine.  These are ready for the next couple of male birthdays on my list!

BOTANICAL BEAUTY!

This floral is from Taylored Expressions called Botanical Beauty Background.  I believe I bought this last year at the annual TE Garage sale so this product is retired.  I do love all the pretty flowers.  

YOU CRAZY KIDS!

All Taylored Expressions products.  I used the Crab and die from the Critter Crew from the month of July.  The toffee card stock is stamped with the linen background.  I used dies for the water and the sunshine is a stencil.  I thought this would make a cute anniversary card.
