Taylored Expressions / Nature's Canvas Cardmaking Kit

Hello!

It's the last Tuesday of the month and that means it's time for a new kit at Taylored Expressions! The Nature's Canvas Cardmaking Kit features beautiful floral illustrations that are perfect for so many different coloring techniques. I've used the kit along with the included stencils for some ink blending!!

The Nature's Canvas Cardmaking Kit includes:

Nature's Canvas Stamp Set

Nature's Canvas Coloring Stencil

Timeless Greetings Stamp Set

The Insiders - Nature's Canvas

Taylored Tutorial instruction sheet

My first card uses the poppy inspired image in the blended colors of Sweet Corn, Cilantro, Dill Pickle, and Sweet Potato using the stencils.  I've paired it with a bold Cilantro cardstock background that was white heat embossed with the same image.  The main image was layered onto a Rounded Rectangle Stacklets.  A new addition to the Bits & Pieces lineup are the White Foil Drops.....my FAVORITE to date!

***************

My second card uses a soft color palette of Rose Water, Pink Champagne, and Dill Pickle inks blended over the stencils from the kit.  My blooms were tucked into a cutout background using the Label Stacklets 13 and the Diamonds Piercing Plate.  I added in those new Bits & Pieces White Foil Drops.  

***************

Kits go fast and most items are not available to purchase outside the kit. New to the kits this year, we’re introducing the Taylored Tutorial instruction sheet, which provides step-by-step guidance for creating a special project using the kit's contents.

Taylored Expressions / Pick Your Pairings Release

Hello!

It’s time for another Pick Your Pairings release! Our amazing Fans of Taylored Expressions have shared their creative ideas, and we’ve brought them to life—ready to add the perfect finishing touch to your projects. 

My first card is a mini slim using the Foil It - Drop Shadow Sentiments along with some Magical Fun Foil.

My colors were Dragonfruit, Sweet Corn, and Gumdrop cardstocks using the Tall Tales Alpha Die Set.  I added in some coordinating cupcakes from the Gnome Alone Die Set - Birthday and frosted them with some Sugar Cube Fine Glitter.  For embellishments, a few Bits & Pieces Start Party were added with liquid glue.  Simple birthday greetings strip was added from Simple Strips Occasions.

**************

My second card uses a new addition to the gnomes called Gnurse Gnome - Dress Up.  Fitting because I'm a nurse, this was fun to accessorize!

Her scrub top was stamped with the Bold Border Background Blocks in Sugar Cube ink.  The background is Talking in Circles Piercing Plate trimmed down and a simple black strip of cardstock was added to ground my nurse.  Sentiment from Mini Strips - Hello Add-ons.

**************

Taylored Expressions/ Technique Week & Summer School

Hope everyone’s fueled up with their caffeine today! 

We made it through the time change this weekend and Tayored Expressions Virtual Stamp Joy. 

This week, we’re kicking off Technique Week with the launch of our TE Perforated Paper, along with new products to pair with the paper. Plus, we’re excited to open early bird registration for our Summer School event! 

************************

The Perforated Paper is so FUN to use along with florals!  I've used Woodland Blooms with a pop of Fruit Punch color.

I ink blended the Woodland Bloom in one corner and then rotated my Perforated Paper and ink blended the bloom in the other corner.  Black rhinestone details were added to the flower centers.  A simple frame, from Stitched Frame Stacklets 1, centered is the perfect placement for the sentiment from Sundry Sentiments.

************************

This card uses Buds & Blossoms on the Perforated Paper but the paper was backed with Pineapple cardstock so it gives off a buttery color instead of the stark white paper!

My color palette:  Huckleberry, Eggplant, Pineapple, and Brussels Sprout.  A simple layout with an added frame from Fancy Feature Frames Die Set and a sentiment from Essential Sentiments.

************************
