Taylored Expressions Sneak Peek Day 1


Hey there hens! Well I had a fabulous looong weekend! I hope yours was good as well. Today is Day 1 of this week's TE Sneak Peeks. Today I'll be featuring two of the four A La Carte images available on Thursday, July 8th from Taylored Expressions. My first card features "Destination New York". Oh, I hope I did it justice!! I'm not much of a city chick, so I hope I didn't mess these images up! LOL!! After I finished this card, I asked my DH, please tell me that's water behind that railing!! He laughed and said YES! Whew!!

Ok, so I stamped my image onto some Choice CS and colored it with my Copics. I cut the image out with my oval Nesties and then sponged some chalk ink around the edges with the die in place. I matted the image with some black CS and used my Fiskars border punch along the bottom edge. This DP and ribbon are from the new "Summertime" Project Pantry being released this Thursday. To finish, I stamped the sentiment (included with the image) and adhered it under the ribbon, tied in a cute bubbly bow!

For my second card, I used "Destination Seattle". I LOVED Cuppie's little umbrella and thought this would make a great Get Well card. Again, I used the paper and ribbon from the "Summertime" Project Pantry. I stamped the image on some Choice CS and colored it with my Copics. I matted it with some black CS to make it pop off the blue and then stamped the sentiment, also included with this image, onto the DP below. I tied the ribbon from the kit around the yellow panel and finished with a little clear glaze on Cuppie's chocolate ice cream. Okee dokee, that's it for me today. Be sure to leave a cluck below and let me know what ya think, k? Wanna see some more great ideas? Hop on over to the rest of the Baker's Dozen and get ready to be WOW'd!! {{{hen hugs}}}
