Taylored Expressions / Valentine's Day Release


Hello everyone and happy 2026!! 
Hope you had a chance to relax, celebrate, and enjoy time with your favorite people over the holidays. We are officially in the new year and I am excited to kick things off with Taylored Expressions first release! Valentine's Day is always a big one! 

My first project uses my favorite product from the release.....Sweet Talk Bundle.

Amy_Sweet Talk2_WM

This is a die based bundle with stamp set.  I've paired my chocolates with the new Full Heart Stacklets and Petite Scallop Heart Stacklets to create my own box of chocolates.  Colors used:  Cherry Pop, Toffee, Hot Fudge, Sugar Cube.  I added my box of chocolates to a white panel embossed with the Lots of Love Embossing Folder.  I finished the card with a white embossed sentiment on Hot Fudge cardstock and added glitter glue to the chocolates.

Next up, is an addition to the popular Postmarked collection called......Postmarked - With Love.  

Using the stencils, I created my postmarked images with Tiki Mule, Royal Icing, Bubblegum and Fruit Punch inks.  After die cutting, they were arranged on a A2 Large Scallop Stacklets that was die cut using the Diagonal Stitched Rectangle Stacklets.  My scallop panel was added to an embossed background done with the Sketched Hearts Embossing Folder.  Don't even get me started on that cute sentiment!!  ☺

My last project uses the Heart to Heart Bundle.

Using some traditional Valentine colors of Cherry Pop and Pink Champagne this time.  The background was done using a new background stamp that is an exclusive gift with purchase for this release!  Using the Squiggle Stacklets, I created a collage of hearts using the Heart to Heart stamps and dies.  I added in lots of the hearts that were white heat embossed.  The sentiment is from a new fun set called Mini to Mighty - Valentine.

I have a few projects to share using some of the Cute Combos releasing today!
The first one is the adorable Turtle-y Awesome.

I created a backdrop for my turtle using the Rainbow Bright 3 Die using Blue Corn, Blueberry, and Bleu Cheese Cardstocks.  My turtle was white heat embossed onto PeaPod Cardstock and then outlined with a Copic marker for depth (fun way of coloring without all the fuss)My panel was added to an Oatmilk Cardstock panel that was die cut using the Fanfare Cutting Plate.

Next up, is the Smiley Squad and all their happiness!
I stamped the smiley faces in Lollipop, Candy Corn, Mango, Lime Zest, Confetti Cake, and Macaron inks.  They were die cut out and faces stamped.  They were added to a Swiss Dots embossed panel that was also layered with the Rainbow Bright 2 Die.  I added a party hat and sentiment from Birthday Bash.

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

Here we go.......Fast Track is perfect for those fast racers on your list!
I created a Mini Slim card using the Mini Slim Wavy Stripe Cutting Plate Die.
The cars were stamped in Cherry Pop and Wintergreen inks and die cut.  They were added to the mini slim card panel with foam adhesive.  The finish line flags were added along with a white heat embossed sentiment and some Holographic Stars.

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

Lastly, is a set that I can not wait to use more!  I love the postage trend and don't see it going anywhere soon!  Using the new Air Mail set, I've embellished a stenciled panel from Create in Quads Layering Stencil Snowflakes.  The panel was stenciled with Tiki Mule, Sour Gummy, and Blue Corn inks.  A layer of vellum was added to soften the background so JOY could be added using the Stitched Alpha Die Set.  For just a bit of sparkle, Silver Glitter Drops were added over the panel.
