Good morning! The Baker's Dozen Design Team is hosting a pre-release peek of all the new Taylored Expressions sets and dies that will be available in the TE Store Thursday, October 4th! Woot! Taylor is throwing a special Preview Party over on the TE Facebook Page TONIGHT at 6PM PDT - there are prizes available, so you will definitely want to join in on all the fun!
Today I'm giving you a little peek at Very Merry, a set of 22 images and sentiments - from the Whimsical Wishes line by Nancy McKinney - designed for quick and fun Holiday cards. This set is sold with a word die, "merry" which gives you so much versatility with the coordinating sentiments.
I didn't use the "merry" die with my card today, but chose to use the coordinating Very Merry Outlines Dies to create the little ornament. I stamped the ornament in Colorbox Warm Red and then cut it out with the matching die. I popped it up with foam tape and some Ladybug Doodle Twine. The papers and ribbon are all from the Merry & Bright Project Pantry Kit - the patterned papers in the kit are Carta Bella Merry & Bright 6x6 and are so super cute! The layout is Retro Sketches #28.
