Taylored Expressions Sneak Peek | Day 1


It's Sneak Peek time!  Taylored Expressions has a HUGE release for October and we're starting the party early - woohoo!  The Baker's Dozen is giving you sneaks of 4 sets today - Gobble Gobble, Penguin Pals, Merry Little Cocktail, and Hangin' Out North Pole.  This cute little image is part of Penguin Pals, a set of 14 deeply etched rubber, cling-mount stamps and all of the images are die cut, so no need to trim the rubber before you can get the stamps all full of inky goodness!

 I started by stamping the penguins in Memento Tuxedo Black {seems fitting} on Choice Buttercream cardstock and colored them with Copic markers.  No fuzzy winter cap is complete without some fuzz, so I added some Platinum Sparkly Fluff to that sweet penguin's stocking cap.  I think he likes it.  The cardstock snowflakes are from the Snowflake Edge Punch - I had intended to make a snowflake edge and changed my mind, but I really wanted to use the punched out snowflakes it makes.  So cute!!  I added some Multi-Colored Twinkles to the snowflake centers.  The paper is Mitten Weather from Cosmo Cricket - soooo adorable.  Love the purples.  The layout is from The Sweet Stop - SSS73.

The Baker's Dozen have more eye candy for you this morning, so grab a cuppa and head on over to see:
Enjoy your Monday and I'll see you back tomorrow for some more TE sneaks!
