Thinking of You


I have a card to share today using the May Stamp of the Month from Taylored Expressions.  The May Stamp of the Month is called Bloom & Grow

I just LOVE the sweet little flower images in this set.  There are the stems and two different sets of flowers that pair with the stems.  It makes it so easy to create two-color flowers without having to use markers to color the stems and flowers separately.  The papers I used are from the Sweet Girl Collection from Echo Park.  Bloom & Grow also has a coordinating die set available (sold separately) called Hello Blooms.  I didn't use the die set on this card, but it makes it even easier to create adorable things with this set. 

You can find more information HERE on all of the different subscriptions available at Taylored Expressions.  I personally am a big fan of the Deluxe Subscription because I LOVE the stamp sets and having perfectly coordinated papers to go with it!  ;)  Thanks for stopping by today!  Hope you have a wonderful day!!

Verve Release Day!






Welcome back for the final day of the Verve Spotlight Hops!!  All of the new products we've been featuring this week are now available in the Verve Store!!

For my card today, I used the Be Blessed set.   I just LOVE this set!  :)  I decided to create flowers using the flower and outline of the flower stamps to create a background.  The sentiment was stamped and embossed in white.  I added some ribbon from the Signature Collection along with some twine to finish the card.

Home Is Where the Heart Is


Recently I have needed some cards for friends who have bought new homes.  I was going through my stamps and thought the Welcome Home set from Taylored Expressions worked perfectly.  I also used the coordinating die, Build a House, to create the little house. 

The card base looks embossed, but it's not.  I actually die cut the Floral Cutting Plate in white and adhered it to a white card base.  It gives a nice texture to the card without adding too much.  I die cut a heart using the Heart Stacklets and stamped the sentiment.  Don't you just love all of the little details of the house?  I love that little white picket fence!  :) 

Thanks for stopping by today!  I hope you're having a wonderful day!!

Welcome to Day 3 of our May 2014 Spotlight Hops!  The Divas will be spotlighting 3 new sets, 3 plain janes and a couple dies each day through tomorrow, so keep your eyes peeled for some fresh Verve inspiraiton! Everything previewed this week will be available in the Verve online store on Friday, 5/23.

Today I have a card that features the Be Blessed set along with the Petal Points Die Set and the Sprightly Sprigs Die Set!  I started by diecutting the flowers using the Petal Points Die Set and then stamping the flowers in yellow and orange ink.  I arranged them on the card and then die cut and added leaves using the Sprightly Sprigs Die Set.  I stamped this beautiful sentiment from the set and then drew a border around the card to frame the flowers and sentiment.  As a finishing touch, I added some orange rhinestones to the centers of the flowers.

My card today uses the Button Best set.   Button Best is an adorable set that works perfectly for mothers, but it also works great for a general thank you or letting someone know you care about them.  I used the Vintage Bliss Collection from Simple Stories for my card.  The buttons were stamped and embossed in white and then punched out using a 1" circle punch.  I used a border from the Scalloped Trim Trio Die Set for the top of the card.

Taylored Expressions May Release Day: Dino-Mite


It's RELEASE DAY at Taylored Expressions!!  Everything we've been featuring this week is NOW AVAILABLE in the TE Store!!  Before you go shopping, I have one more project to share with you!  :)  This project uses the Dino-Mite set. 

This is an adorable set for kids. . .especially boys!  I have been finding lately that I don't have enough stamp sets that I can use for a boy's birthday.  This one is PERFECT!  There is also a coordinating die set available for purchase.  It is called Dinos

The background was created using the Houndstooth Cutting Plate.  The sentiment was stamped and embossed in white on cardstock that was die cut using the Banner Stacklets 3.  The dinosaur was stamped on orange cardstock, die cut and then colored using Copic markers. 

Thanks for stopping by all week!  Be sure to see what the rest of the Baker's Dozen has to show you today!  HAPPY SHOPPING!!
