Happy Mother's Day...

Today I am on the Pink & Main blog and I am getting crafty with... 

Pink & Main: (NEW) Holographic Set 1, Large Sentiment Strip dies, Mother stamp set, Basket Cover Die and Tall Flowers stamp and coordinating die set.

Hands up with you are loving the new Holographic paper collections? They are great for die cutting and creating fun backgrounds. Plus look at all that shine, got to love it... right?

I started with die cutting the Basket Cover Die on a piece of the new Holographic Set 1. I popped out all the negative pieces and adhered to my card base using the P&M: NEW EZ Squeeze Craft Glue. I then stamped this beautiful floral image from the Tall Flowers stamp set and colored with Copic sketch markers and die cut with the coordinating die set. I added it to my card using foam tape for a little dimension.

Next I stamped this Happy Mother's Day sentiment from the Mother stamp set and die cut with the Large Sentiment Strips dies and added it to my card using more of that fun foam tape.

Another simple card with lots of shine. For sure to bring a big smile from that someone special.

Have a great weekend everyone.
Thanks for stopping by.

Taylored Expressions: Mother's Day Release...

It is Tuesday and yes that means it is time for another fun Taylored Expressions release.
Time for Spring and Mother's Day is right around the corner. 

I just love floral backgrounds and today I am featuring the new Taylored Expressions: In Bloom cling/clear combo and I paired it up with the new On The Block MOM and already released On the Block Happy and Cap it Off Alphas. 

I started with stamping this pretty In Bloom background and with the clear stamps that are included I added the color using TE inks of course. I used Lavender Glaze, Watermelon, Pink Champagne, Lime Zest, Gumball and Pineapple. If you look closely you will see that I added a little white polka dots where the watermelon ink is. I used lavender Glaze and Pineapple for the On the Block MOM and HAPPY, then die cut using the coordinating die set. I die cut a few more plain mom and happy sentiments so I can use them for dimension. Just layer and glue. Finishing up with die cutting the DAY using the Cap it Off Alphas on some Pineapple and Lavender Glaze TE premium card-stock. Now it is time to add the sentiment to the card base. I used foam tape for the DAY sentiment and with the layers behind the On the Block MOM and HAPPY. they are all popping from the card. 

 

 

 

Next up we have this gorgeous new Taylored Expressions: Circle Botanical and Botanical Sentiments paired up with TE Pierced Circles cutting plate, TE white embossing powder, Silver Drip Drops, Fruit Punch and Blue Corn Premium card-stock and Mini Slim Trifold Template & Dies.I first die cut the TE Pierced Circles cutting plate on some TE Blue Corn Premium card-stock and adhered to my card base. I then heat embossed this new Circle Botanical stamp and I did a little fussy cutting so I could pop it from my card base using foam adhesives. But first I want to cut out the center using the circle dies from the Mini Slim Trifold Temple and Dies set. That is how I got the stitched circle center. I die cut the circle again on some Blue Corn and heat embossed this pretty sentiment from the new Botanical Sentiments stamp set. Time to put the card together. I used lots of foam tape for dimension and I need more shine so I added a few TE Silver Drip Drops here and there. Totally simple to create.

 

 

Thanks for stopping by. Enjoy shopping this awesome new release!

Happy Easter...

Happy Easter weekend everyone. Today I am on the Pink & Main blog HERE and I am sharing a little Easter fun with Pink & Main: Let's Polka Embossing Folder, hooray Enamel Dots, EZ Squeeze Crafter Glue, Always stamp and coordinating die set and Sketched Easter stamp and coordinating die set.

Today I am mixing it all up and getting more use of these gorgeous stamp sets and adding some texture with P&M embossing folders and enamel dots. 

 

I embossed the Let's Polka embossing folder on two different colors of card-stock and glued to my card base ising the new EZ Squeeze Craft Glue (which I might add is pretty awesome and clean to use, plus it drys quickly). I then stamped out all of my images and colored using Copic Sketch markers and die cut using the coordinating dies. I stamped the Happy Easter sentiment from the Sketched Easter stamp set and it fit prefect. I adhered the heart from Always using again the EZ Squeeze Craft Glue and then the rest of the images using foam adhesives for a little dimension.

 I know you all love when TE releases the previous released kits individually and today is the day to start shopping that release. Today I am featuring the Cable Knit Background stamp set from the Like Gnome Other kit. I paired it up with the Pierced Tags Stacklets 2, Be Joyful stamp set and Social Butterflies stamp and coordinating die set. 

I heat embossed the Cable Knit Background using TE White embossing powder on some of TE Jelly Donut premium card-stock and adhered to my card base. I die cut one of the Pierced Tags Stacklets 2 on some white card-stock and stamped the Be Joyful sentiment in the middle using my Misti and TE Oreo ink. Next I stamped out these adorable spring butterflies from the Social Butterflies stamp set using for the base TE Oreo ink and finishing up with TE bold color inks. I die cut the butterflies using the coordinating dies and adhered to my tag using some glue and some foam adhesives for dimension. I added the tag to my card using foam adhesives again for more dimension. I cant get enough. I need a little sparkle so I added two of the TE Silver Drip Drops.

Pink & Main: Stamp Club Release...

Pink & Main is offering a new monthly exclusive stamp and die set.
The first stamp set is called Oh Happy Day and it is available for purchase now and ships on April 10th.

Each month there will be a new stamp set so make sure you subscribe to get your crafty hands on these fun exclusive sets each month.

Let's share a peek of this cute exclusive Pink & Main set. I created this card using the  Pink & Main: Oh Happy Day Stamp and Coordinating die set, Dotty Stencil and Mask it Square Stencil. The images are colored with Copic Sketch markers and die cut using the exclusive coordinating die set. I set those aside so I could create this fun Dotty background.

Pink & Main offers the Ergonomic Blending Brush which makes it so easy to grip and to add your ink using stencils. So I used both with the Dotty Stencil and Mask It Square Stencil. I wanted the images to really pop so that is why I added the square background it kind of highlights... don't you think?

I added the images using foam adhesives for a little dimension and finished up with this cute little sentiment that is also in the exclusive Happy Day set. After adding the images I thought why not add a little polka dot fun on the balloons and the package. So I did. 

So wild with color.

Thanks for stopping by.
Have a wonderful day!

Taylored Expressions Stamp Joy Exclusives Release...

It's Tuesday and time for another fun release from Taylored Expressions
This week TE is release some of the exclusives from Stamp Joy.

Today I am featuring the Stamp Joy exclusive Masking Color Block Stencil and I went all pink with this card. I first lined up all the stencils on my card base and added some temporary tape on the back of the smaller inserts so they would stay in place. I would remove one at a time to I could add the TE color using the TE Blender Brushes. I would put the stencil back in place so I did not get ink in the wrong box. Once I have completed all the colored boxes I removed the main stencil but left all the little boxes in place so I can added this cool pattern from the Paint Swatch stencil. I just overlaid it right on top of the little boxes and added the TE ink using TE Blender Brushes. Now that all your ink is added time to remove all the stencils to see the final result. 

Time to stamp the Springtime Smiles stamps using my Misti and TE Oreo ink, then color with Copic Sketch markers. I did a little fussy cutting and added to my colorful background using foam adhesives for a little dimension.

Finishing up with stamping that fun sentiment from Springtime Smiles.
