Taylored Expressions Release Day: Tag-Along Valentine Tag set

Hi Everyone!


Welcome to the December Release Week at Taylored Expressions




Taylored Exprsessions is celebrating Release Week with some fabulous giveaways!! Visit the TE BLOG each Sneak Peek Day this week for details on how you can enter to win!!!

Welcome to Release Day at Taylored Expressions where all the items you have seen this week on everyone's sneak peeks are available at the TE store for your crafting pleasure!

Today, I am so excited to show a project that I made using the Tag-Along Valentine stamp set with coordinating Tag-Along Valentine's Day dies! I made a set of cards with these cute stamps and dies using the newest Build A Tag 2 die set that easily allows you to assemble and create a set of tags! LOVE it! Check out these super cute stamp images in this stamp set- love that cutting them out is so easy with the coordinating dies!


I started out by using the Matched Kit: Formula for Love that has premium cardstock that is heavy and cuts and holds up so nice! I die cut out the base in the Poppy seed gray and then die cut the red and pink pieces and assembled it onto the base with a bit of dimensionals. And then I stamped each of the images and colored and then cut them out with the coordinating dies - here is the cute little kitty in this stamp set - isn't she just the cutest?!

Here is a sweet heart shaped flower in the stamp set - I added some stickles to the side of the heart and some faux stitching to the sides:


My favorite might be this little guy holding the heart shaped balloon - SO cute! I love that the die cut allowed the cut on the balloon so effortlessly! I added a jumbo eyelet to each tag and then some baker's twine along with the sentiment: Love You to the sentiment flag that comes with the Build A Tag 2 die set - so fun!


I loved making these tags and can't wait to see what everyone has made with these super cute dies, stamps and papers for today's release!!! Please head over to the TE Blog for more details!

Taylored Expressions Sneak Peek: Love you more and Hearts a Flutter


Hi Everyone!


Welcome to the December Release Week at Taylored Expressions




Taylored Exprsessions is celebrating Release Week with some fabulous giveaways!! Visit the TE BLOG each Sneak Peek Day this week for details on how you can enter to win!!!

I have two projects today that I am sharing made with these awesome crafty dies and stamps from the Dec. Release! My first project uses the Hearts A Flutter Cutting Plate which is seriously too cool!! Its so easy and quick to make a card that pops! The cutting plate partially cuts out the hearts in the larger heart so that you can pop them out a bit. You can layer DP underneath them or even just put a plain cardstock behind it - I chose just to put some Lollipop- premium cardstock from TE behind it and then layer it onto the Poppy gray premium cardstock:


Here is a closer peek at the hearts: I added a drop of liquid pearl to the sides of the heart and some glitter as well. To the edges and all around the card I added a line of liquid pearls for a look of soft romance and then embossed the Band It All die with the Twirls and Swirls embossing folder. This cutting plate is so unique in the look that it gives:


For my second project, I created a card using the Love You More stamp set that comes with a coordinating die that can die cut the word "love". I die cut this word in 4 different colors and then popped it onto the Banner Stacklets 2 die and stamped the word "always" from the set onto the bottom:


Here is a closer peek at this card - I added a little bit of stickles to the love at the bottom and a heart from the Heart Stacklets dies to the top with a bit of bling. The red scalloped border was done by taking a Jumbo Flower border die and cutting it in half:


I loved making these cards and can't wait to see what everyone has made with these super cute dies, stamps and papers!!! Please head over to the TE Blog for more details and hop over tomorrow for more sneak peeks!

Taylored Expressions Sneak Peeks: Pieces of My Heart and Love is the Solution!

Hi Everyone!

Welcome to the December Release Week at Taylored Expressions




Taylored Exprsessions is celebrating Release Week with some fabulous giveaways!! Visit the TE BLOG each Sneak Peek Day this week for details on how you can enter to win!!!

I have two projects today that I am sharing made with these awesome crafty dies and stamps from the Dec. Release! They are both made using the papers from the Matched Kit: Formula for Love - I love these fun papers!! My first project uses the heart puzzle die that comes with the stamp set Pieces of my Heart! This is SUCH a super cute stamp set - I LOVE the sentiments and chose the one: "We Just Fit" to make an anniversary card for my DH. 


Here is a closer peek at the heart made out of puzzle pieces. Each of the puzzle pieces is made from a designer paper from the Matched Kit: Formula for Love using the die and then were individually assembled onto the cardstock - such a cool puzzle piece die!!! I assembled the hearts onto a mat using the Heart Stacklets and then onto a cardstock embossed with the Twirls and Swirls embossing folder:


I lined the outside of the hearts with some white gel pen - and then on the inside added the sentiment: Happy Anniversary and some puzzle pieces:

For my second project, I made a card using the Love is the Solution stamp set  - it is so cool - perfect for all you science lovers out there! I used the sentiment "We have great chemistry and combined it with the stamp image of a lineup of different beakers of solutions colored in with copics:

Here is a close up of the beakers that were colored in with copics and then I added a little small glaze over them to give them a soft shine:
And here is another angle of the card, I used the Postage Stamp stacklets to mat the sentiment over and then corner chomped the sides and added some foam dimensionals to pop up the image of the beakers: 


I loved making these cards and can't wait to see what everyone has made with these super cute dies, stamps and papers!!! Please head over to the TE Blog for more details and hop over tomorrow for more sneak peeks!
