I am so honored to be celebrating this milestone with you!
We have lots of fun, new products to help celebrate those special occasions!
How about some super sized sweet treats with the new Scooptacular dies. Perfect to add some detailing to with ink blending and the new Sweet Squares Embossing Folder! There's even a new Mini Strips: What's the Scoop.
****************************
Up next, is an amazing new die called Iced Iced Baby paired with Sixteen Candles. I could not let this opportunity go by to make a rainbow cake! I did make a shaped card using the dies....super easy! The sprinkle layer has all the inlaid pieces.....a little "extra" but worth it!
****************************
Of course, it wouldn't be a party without a new Create in Quads stencil: Celebrate in Style. I worked with the quad with all the mini cupcakes.
Mini slim is one of my favorite sizes of cards to make. I created a splattered background for my shaker card! I used Bits and Pieces: Confetti Dots to fill my shaker. Added sentiments from Mini Strips: What's the Scoop to finish this off!

Hello! Are you ready for a fun TREAT KIT from Taylored Expressions?
It's called Tombstone Treats.
My daughter just moved to college so I created this duo......card and treat box, to give her!
My card started out with ink blending some Pink Champagne and Macaron inks. Very lightly, some clouds were ink blended over the top. I added in some tombstones in the same colors along with a marker that was white heat embossed. The dies included in the kit are awesome because they include a "backer" for EASY layering! I tucked the tombstones into some ink blended die cut grass. I added some black rhinestones as accents along with tiny flowers from Garden Variety to make this more feminine.
The treat box was SUPER easy to put together. I do suggest using Scor-Tape for assembly. My treat box was decorated similarly as the card.
*********************

It's an exciting week as we release the selected pairings our customers suggested!
These are products that will enhance current collections or things that will make current products easier to use.
Let's get started.
My first project uses Fluttering Friends 6x6 Background that stamps all the butterfly bodies for you. This makes it super easy to add stenciling over the top.
I further used my stenciled panel along with the 3D Fluttering Friends Embossing Folder. I'm also using a new product that was heavily requested......the Mini Slim Postage Stamp Stacklets!
****************
My second project uses the new coordinating Baroque Bouquet Layering Stencils! This is makes it so easy for those like me who don't really have a passion to color an image like this!
After stamping and stenciling, I went a step further and placed my cardstock back into my Misti and added a layer of Versamark so I could emboss the image! I love how this turned out. After die cutting, I decided to cut up the image. I know.....it's scary after you have done all that work! I layered my cut bouquet onto a panel die cut using the Pierced Lattice Cutting Plate. The sentiment is using the new Foil It Sundry Sentiments. However, I did not foil......simply used it as it was with the die. To finish, I added in a coordinating frame using Mulled Wine cardstock and the Frame in Frame Cutting Plate and some Clear Drip Drops.
****************
My last card uses a new background called Pixie Petals Background.
I decided to ink blend a background of Confetti Cake,Blue Raspberry, and Poblano Pepper. Over the top, the Pixie Petals Background was stamped with Sugar Cube ink for a distressed look.
I thought a spray of florals along the side using Garden Variety would help elongate the Mini Slim card size. I went with coordinating Blue Raspberry leaves for a softer, more blended look. Another sentiment from the Foil It Sundry Sentiments along with Black Rhinestones, finish the card.
****************
Now for this week's promotion!
For a limited time, get the exclusive Arch Deco Background Stamp along with the Feature Frames gift with purchase when you spend $175 or more.
Pumpkins, skeletons, tombstones......all the frightening things!
My first project features the new Toil and Trouble die which I made into a shaker and used the new Bits & Pieces: Halloween Stars and Sparkles. The cauldron shaker is backed with silver glitter paper.
I added lots of Sugar Cube ink to distress the Black Licorice cardstock that was die cut using the new Squiggle Stacklets.
*******************
My second card uses the new set Stayin' Alive which features these adorable skeletons "dancing".
Creating a mini slim for this card using the Mini Slim Circle Window Cutting Plate, features these dancing skeletons come out of the windows. The skeletons where white heat embossed onto Black Licorice cardstock. The background was stamped using Zigs and Zags background done in Dragonfruit cardstock and ink for a tone on tone look. To finish, a white heat embossed sentiment from Stayin' Alive was added along with Oreo Enamel Dots.
*******************
My last card features the Spooktacular Bundle in another mini slim card.
This one shows off the split background stamp called Halloween Scene. I took this one step further and used the exclusive gift with purchase called Graveyard Shift. The eerie night sky was ink blended with Mint Julep and Versafine Clair inks. To finish, white splatter and a layer of die cut grass.
*******************
Its time for the Halloween Release! (Yay!!) We have two bundles for easy one-click shopping to help kickstart Halloween crafting AND an exclusive $100 GWP called Graveyard Shift. Here are the details:
This kit is ALL about those ugly sweaters and is packed with lots of hilarious sentiments and fun additions for your sweaters!
Both my cards feature the Mini Slim size from Taylored Expressions!
I started by heat foiling the sweaters using Cookie Monster Fun Foil from Taylored Expressions. Second, I ink blended using the included stencils to create my colored sweaters using Lime Zest, Bubblegum, Cookie Monster inks. I think the best part is the sweater die that creates the "cuffs" of the sweater!!
***********************
My first card uses 2 of the sweaters and I embellished them with the Dinky Decorations die that is included in the kit! They were cut out of Cookie Monster Glitter Paper. The sweaters were layered over a panel that was stamped with the Dotted Snowfall Background (not included in the kit but an amazing add on!) in Cookie Monster ink.
My second card's sweater uses one of the Dinky Decorations.....the Snowman! This card features one of The Insiders--Sweater Sayings and it was foiled using Cookie Monster Fun Foil and then cut out using the Label Stacklets 13 for a retro vibe.
***********************

Sweater Weather Stencil, Die, & Clear Combo
Dinky Decorations
The Insiders - Sweater Sayings

This week we have more products previously offered as freebies but are now available for purchase PLUS several NEW products too!
This week I am focusing on the Petal Pop Dies and sentiments and the coordinating dies.
I went with the colors Pineapple, Lime Zest, Tropical Punch, Oreo, and Sugar Cube for the various cardstocks. The layers were made using the Postage Stamp Stacklets and the Pocketful dies. The flower was created using one additional layer not included in the die set......the yellow non-distressed Pineapple circle. The bees were added with foam adhesive and their wings are vellum!!!
This week we have more products previously offered as freebies but are now available for purchase PLUS several NEW products too!
This one uses the new All Planned Out 2 to create some windows to frame the flowers from Framed Flowers. I went with a color scheme of Blueberry and a scrap of a light peachy cardstock. All the Flowers were Copic colored and die cut using the new coordinating dies.
***************************
My second card uses All Planned Out 1 along with a panel from Ever in Bloom Quad.
Colors used on the stencils include Cupcake, Pineapple, Honey, Avocado, and Peapod inks. I love all the additional elements included in the All Planned Out dies! For a focal point, a foiled sentiment from Hello Lovely was added with foam adhesive.
I am a mom and wife and when I'm not hanging out with my family, I work full time as a dialysis nurse. I love papercrafting and making cards! Thanks for stopping by to see my work!
