How exciting is all of that???!!!
Well - before you head out shopping at Taylored Expressions - here are a few more samples from newest release - I seriously SERIOUSLY LOVE LOVE LOVE these new stamp sets (okay - I know I say that about all the TE stamps - but I adore these fun images and sentiments!)
MARGARITA MADNESS!
Here is a fun Margarita Madness card "Cheers" using the Chillax stamp set and using the SCS Sketch 40 . I loved stamping these fun Margaritas and coloring in the different flavors and then adding some clear glaze to make it all glass-y.
Here is a close up of the glasses and the bling and the rub ons:

THANK YOU BERRY MUCH GIFT PACKAGE
If you haven't tried Taylor's Perfect Packages - you have to check them out - they come folded flat and have strong magnetic clasps for closure and are a snap to decorate - and you can put whatever you would like in them like: giftcards, chocolate, knick knacks, etc. I went with the chocolate route - because.... well.... its chocolate!!! I used the papers in the Berries and Cherries Key Ingredients to decorate it along with the sweet flower and strawberry image in the Berries and Cherries Stamp set:
Here's what it looks like when you open it up --- yum!!!
(Maybe I should give myself the present! ha!)

6 x 6 CHILLAX-'in' LAYOUT
I snapped this pic of my kiddies on the porch having strawberry popsicles after a hard day of riding bikes and swimming (oh the hard life of a kid!) - I loved this picture of them just relaxin and chillin' --- also known as CHILLAXIN' :) on the porch with their popsicles. I couldn't wait to use this sentiment from the Chillaxin' Stamp Set for my layout! I used the Scrappy Sunday sketch from Jen Tapler this week from PaperCraft Planet for this layout:
Here is a close up look at the sentiment and the details:
And then thing that I LOVE LOVE LOVE about making these 6 x 6 layouts is that they are simple and quick! AND that I can display them right away in our living room for all to see using Taylor's calendar stand. The kids love seeing themselves!
