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!

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. 

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.  

PRETTY PRESSED PETALS

Taylored Expressions Combo Club for June was a big hit for me.  I love the pretty Pressed Petals kit that included stamps, stencils and dies.  I used a Foil It on one of the cards.  I enjoyed changing up the background on the cards for a variety of styles.  

WOODLAND BLOOMS

I'm using a favorite of mine for a few more cards.  The Woodland Blooms by Taylored Expressions is always a good thing!  This time I stenciled the color onto the Foil It's.  The card on the right I used the Woodland Blooms die and cut out the floral spray using the Garden Trellis embossing folder in the background.  The card on the left I used the Quilted Cutting plate after I had done the stenciling.  The sentiments are from the same stamp set.  

FLOWERS & SUCH

This is a new stencil set from Taylored Expressions.  Seeds & Such Flowers including Poppy, Marigold, Daisy and Sunflower.  

The Flower cards turned out pretty!  

2027 CALENDAR!

I wanted to create my 2027 calendar with the new products from Taylored Expressions.  I used the Soft Surrounds wreath stamped in Green Tea ink.  And then I went to die cutting - A LOT of die cutting & coloring!  I used the Year of Blooms flowers from the 2025 freebie collection.  I die cut the Vases & Places 1 & 2 for the basket and vases.  I ink blended the containers and also splattered them.  I followed the order of the flowers according to each month that we received them - January through December.  I added a bit of greenery here and there and a couple of mushrooms.

 

Here is the whole year.  It was quite a project, but I love how it turned out.  My 2027 calendar is all ready to go!

THE SECOND BLOOM

This is a new stamp set from Taylored Expressions that arrived in the mail on Monday.  I made these cards immediately and they turned out so pretty!  The stamp set is called Nature's Canvas The Second Bloom.  I stamped all the florals and then used the stencils to color them.  They are just beautiful.  The background on each card is the Tweed Background stamp from TE.  The oval dies and the details on the oval is from The Greetery along with the tiny words.  

Taylored Expressions Ink Colors:  

                  Cupcake, Strawberry Milkshake for the pink flowers

                  Potato Chip & Honey for the yellow flower

                  Pear & Sweet Basil for the leaves

HAPPY MARCH!

I already have my Mother's Day cards done.  They were simple and easy to make and I picked colors of flowers that I thought they would like.  

WOODLAND BLOOMS

I was inspired by a fellow crafter on the Fans of Taylored Expressions Facebook page.  She had made cards with this Woodland Blooms stamp/stencil combo.  It's always been a favorite of mine. I took a picture of all the ink colors - so many pretty combinations.   

I used the new Quilted cover plate from Taylored Expressions over top of the stenciled panels.  I used a combination of sentiments and layering dies.  They are so pretty!  

TIMELESS BLOOMS

A new Quad stencil for me from Taylored Expressions.  The Timeless Blooms were released a while go but I didn't buy it at the time so they are having the Second Chance release so I went for it this time.  It creates 4 card fronts once you complete the layering stencils.  I did use the Foils for these and I cut the one panel in half to create two cards.  There was also an idea to make book marks out of the taller florals.  I followed the colors that Taylor used on a video - I really like her use of the script background over top of the flowers.  I wanted to use my new Embossing folders so they are Tweed and Geo Blooms - these are both free with purchase of $100 during the month of February.  I really like them both!  My newest love is mixed fonts in the Together in Type sentiment stamp & die combo.  I used the Foil Its on these cards.  One of the great things about them is that you can cut them all with one die - so quick & easy!  

HEARTFELT SYMPATHY

I used all Taylored Expressions products for this card.  The leafy die is called Glimpse of Nature and it was from Stamp Joy 2025.  The embossing folder is called Cross Stitch and the sentiment is from Modern Sentiment Labels & dies.  

WAFFLE FLOWER POSTAGE

I finally made these into cards.  The Waffle Flower postage stamp die is a fun one to play with.  They have so many different stencils and other ways you can make this a fun card. I love these pretty florals! 

 

PETALS & PROSE

I made this card design at Taylored Expressions Stamp Joy and we were given the stamp set called Petals & Prose.  I decided to make another one.  It was a quick and easy to put together. I like the stamp that looks like splatter!  

WOODLAND BLOOMS

New Taylored Expressions Foil It's called Woodland Blooms!  Bonus was that I already owned the stamp & stencil combo.  I loved the look of the black so I didn't even foil these.  They turned out so pretty!  

The Taylored Expressions Woodland Blooms turned out so pretty. I used the sentiments from the set as well.  

YEAR IN BLOOM

I've been collecting the Taylored Expressions Year in Bloom stamps and buying the coordinating dies.  I decided to stamp, die cut and color a bunch so they are ready to use.  

I found a few frames in my collection to use with the flowers.

I used all Taylored Expressions products for this card.  The card base is a Toffee Mini slim.  I die cut the rectangle postage in the colors Pineapple, Tropical Punch and Sweet Champagne.  I used Copic markers to color the flowers.  The background stamp is TE Weathered Words stamped in Sugar Cube ink.  

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.   

HELLO

Everything is Taylored Expressions for this card.  Gosh, another recent release that I couldn't pass up.  I have been collecting all the Year in Bloom flowers and buying the matching dies during 2025.  I pretty much copied Heather Nichols design on this card.  I colored the flowers a bit different but mostly everything else is the same as hers.
