Taylored Expressions Release Party


There is lots and lots of excitement going on over at Taylored Expressions this morning - not only is it release day, it is also TE's 2nd birthday!  To celebrate, TE is offering some amazing specials for this weekend only, so be sure to read all the way through my post so you don't miss out on any of the goodies!

I have another super fun card for you today, using Make a Wish - and I'm even showing you bits and pieces of the set I didn't include in my earlier post - so many fun images in this set!  I stamped the "make a wish" sentiment on Choice Snow White cardstock with Memento Rich Cocoa and used the Take Note Frame 3 Taylored Die to cut the image out.  I love the way a curvy shape will dress up a main image panel - so cute!  The image is colored in with the Make a Wish Copic set and I stamped the star again and popped it up.  The cute little pennant banner is stamped in Warm Red Liquid Chalk and cut out to size and popped up with dimensional tape.  For the final touch, I wrapped the peach satin ribbon around the card front and used my Bow Easy to make the separate bow - I used a glue dot to adhere it to the image panel.  Easy Peasy!  Click here to see a really good tutorial on how to use the Bow Easy - this handy little template has saved me many, many, MANY gray hairs :)  I made this card with Sankari in mind - today is her birthday too!  Leave it to Sankari to celebrate a birthday the same day as all of these cute stamps - haha!  I should have put on lots and lots of Liquid Pearls in  honor of the birthday girl - drat!!
