Key Ingredients Challenge - March

Happy Monday to you!  The 15th brings you the monthly Key Ingredients Challenge from Taylored Expressions and I am thrilled to show you this month's exclusive KI!  That's right, these monthly kits are now exclusive to subscription members!  The KI subscription program is a monthly kit club dedicated to bringing you the latest coordinating products for papercrafting! Taylor's creative eye for color and her never-ending search for fabulous embellishments make the TE kits fresh and unique!  Each month you'll receive enough coordinating patterned paper, cardstock, ribbon, and embellishments to create at least 16 cards. The TE kits coordinate well with Taylored Expressions stamps, but you can also use them with the many other stamp sets already in your collection. All of the elements are hand-selected to make your crafting easy, fun, and stress free!  Not only do you receive all of these amazing kits at a fabulous price, you also receive a 10% discount at Taylored Expressions during the 10th-14th of the month.  Sweet!! 

Are you ready for the March Challenge?  This month, create a card or project that includes texture inspired by the outdoors. Grab your chipboard flowers, embossing tools, twine, or anything in nature that inspires you!  For my card I grabbed the new set, Favorite Peeps and immediately stamped some green grass along with those adorable little chicks.  I punched out a scalloped circle and used it as a template to create some fun little puffy springtime clouds and then added one of the beautiful little butterfly embellishments - so cool!  The layout comes from The Sweet Stop - SSS47.

Half of the Baker's Dozen have also participated in this month's challenge and have amazing inspiration waiting for you:

• Jodi Collins
• Melissa Sauls
• Charmaine Ikach
• and of course Taylor VanBruggen

Thanks so much for stopping by!
