Taylored Expressions / Scattered Blooms Cardmaking Kit

Hello Spring!

It's time for a fabulous new cardmaking kit from Taylored Expressions called Scattered Blooms!

This kit contains a plate that cuts out loads of gorgeous blooms but they can also be colored in using the coordinating stencils!!!  

My first card uses the stencils with the all in one die plate.  My color combination is a favorite.....Confetti Cake, Poblano Pepper, Guava, Pineapple, and Sweet Potato Pie.  The best thing is that this plate cuts all the little veins and detail areas of the leaves and flowers!!  LOVE!

Each of these blooms was added with foam adhesive on the back for lots of dimension!  The sentiment was done using the new Hugs Die included but the backer is an additional die that also can be purchased!

-----------------------------------------------------------

My second card uses the printed floral pattern that is included but it was FOILED.  So all the details on the flowers are foiled and then the flowers themselves are are stenciled!  The possibilities are endless when it comes to designing with this kit!!

-----------------------------------------------------------

NOW----go grab yourself a kit as this one is sure to sell out!!

Avery Elle / Balloon Wishes

Hello!
I'm here sharing some fun using Balloon Wishes from Avery Elle!

I started by creating black and white horizontal stripes to the left side using 1/4" black strips of cardstock.  Use those scraps!  My card base is a bit smaller than the usual A2 card size due to the stripes.  

The balloon panel was done by die cutting the balloons and ink blended them with ink that was just a bit darker than the cardstock using the Polka Dots Stencil.  The balloon strings were stamped in black ink and little tassels were added.  Over this panel, gold watercolor was splattered.  This panel was added to the striped notecard with foam adhesive.  A few gold rhinestones were added to tie in with the splatter.  Finished this with stamped black stars and the layered 'congrats' sentiment.

Supplies:
Balloon Wishes
Balloon Wishes Elle-ments
Polka Dots Stencil

Avery Elle / One In A Melon

Hello!

Amy here sharing a SWEET card with you using One In A Melon.

I created my background using the Midnight Stripes Washi Tape to create some faux paper.  I added a 1/4" black strip across the top of the Washi Tape for a place to ground my images.  The images were all Copic colored and die cut using the coordinating One In A Melon Elle-ments.  I created my sentiment using the Everyday Alphas Elle-ments in coordinating "sweet watermelon" colors.  As a last detail, I added the tiny little ants!!!

Avery Elle / Thank You Flowers

Hello!

I have a fresh spring color combo paired with the Thank You Flowers stamp set and matching Thank You Flowers Elle-ments from Avery Elle.

I wanted to keep the sentiment center stage so I stamped the image in black ink and barely colored with flicks of Copic color.  The sentiment was die cut several times and layered.  The background was done by adding 3/4" strips of cardstock across the notecard landscape orientation with a white die cut from using Pierced Rounded Frames Elle-ments.

Thanks for sharing a part of your day here!
