Taylored Expressions July Release Day

 

All of the new Taylored Expressions products are now available in the Fresh Out of the Oven Department.  I have two projects featuring 2 of the new sets.  My first project uses the Under the Sea set.  Under the Sea was illustrated by Nancy McKinney for the Whimsical Wishes line.  It's an adorable set including lots of sea creatures and punny sentiments.  Being that I'm a crab (Cancer the Crab with a July birthday, that is) I had to use the crab from the set.  I used papers from the Paradise Beach Collection from Echo Park as well.  The bottom piece of patterned paper was embossed using the new Waves & Bubbles Impression Plate. 

I colored the image with Copic markers.  I used different colors for dots to create the sand.  The image was die cut with the Bracket Frame Die and the "sorry" part of the sentiment was die cut using one of the labels from the Shopping Bag & Labels Die Set.  I also had to stick the Wave Border Die in there somewhere!  :) I added a part of a little die cut Fly Your Flag 2 as an embellishment in the upper right corner. 

My second project for today uses the Moka Pearl set.  Moka Pearl was illustrated by Nancy McKinney and is part of the Moka line.  She's an adorable little mermaid!!  I created a little 3x3 notecard set and box.

I colored Pearl with Copic markers.  I cut Pearl out for the cards.  The paper is from the Paradise Beach Collection from Echo Park.  Can you tell I just LOVE this paper?  I followed the 3x3 Notecard Tote Tutorial at Splitcoast to create the box. 

I hope you've enjoyed my creations today!  You can find all of these products in the TE Store NOW!!  Thanks for stopping by and Happy Shopping!
