Morning! I hope your week is off to a good start. Today is Pick Your Pairings day at Taylored Expressions. This means that YOU get to pick what is released this week by making suggestions of products to pair with items currently in the product line.

My first card features a coloring stencil to go with Just Because Blooms. The stencil has coloring layers from both blooms and the leaves. I used different purples with some deep greens to color my blooms. I stamped and stenciled two of the lilac blooms and layered them with the leaves between. The rest of the card is super simples with a Plum Tart base and Sugar Cube layer embossed with Swiss Dots and a little extra detail of some stamped stitching at the top and bottom of the Honeydew Melon layer. This layer was super simple to create in my MISTI and I’m sure you’ll see this again from me, lol. I lined the stamp up against the bottom edge of my MISTI so it was straight then stamped and A2 piece of Honeydew Melon with the same color ink by stamping one side then rotating and stamping the other. Super simple and everything lined up perfectly.

To finish up I foiled a piece of Poly Glaze with Champagne Fun Foil and die cut Little Bits Butterfly Kisses (also new today) from the foiled cardstock. I LOVE the Poly Glaze sheets – now I can foil any die cuts with any TE Fun Foil.

My second card features addition to the C’Mon large word die line – C’Mon It’s Your Birthday! I paired this up with the Postmarked Birthday Foil It and Stencil in the background and a few little birthday icons from Birthday Bash Stamp Set and the coordinating dies. I wanted to keep this gender/age neutral so I went with bold primary colors. I used Cherry Pop, Peapod, Dijon and Blueberry. This color combo is a go to for me when I need to add to my birthday card stash but want it to be usable for anyone.

And last but not least this card features some new additions to our A7 line of products. A7 cards are 5×7 and TE has been expanding their line of products designed for this size card. For this card I used the new A7 Postage Stamp Stacklets with the Baroque Bouquet Stamp and Coloring Stencil.

To start this card I stamped the Baroque Boquet stamp on Sugar Cube and colored with the coordinating coloring stencil. I used Cake Pop, Popsicle, Pineapple, and Papaya ink for the flowers and Lime Zest and Peapod for the greenery. After die cutting I used an OLO marker to color the white edge to match Royal Icing cardstock. Next I stenciled the Take Two – Beads & Blooms stencil tone on tone on Royal Icing cardstock. I die cut this with the A7 Layer stacklets and assembled everything. I had some butterflies left from my previous card so I added those and a foiled sentiment from Simply Stated Foil Its die cut with the coordinating die.

Good morning! I hope you are having a wonderful Tuesday. It’s been SO hot here in KC and I discovered yesterday the AC wasn’t working in my classroom (EW)! Thankfully we aren’t back in session for another week – I just went up to get my room set back up after summer cleaning.

Back on topic, lol. Today I have a couple of cards to share with you using new Halloween goodies from Taylored Expressions. My first project uses one of my FAVORITE Taylored Expressions products – a Create in Quads stencil! This new stencil set features just what you need to create a variety of Halloween cards. I focused on using the ghost panel of the CIQ stencil. I inked everything up with Plum Punch, Bubblegum, Poppy Seed and Pear ink. After trimming the ghost panel I embossed with the coordinating 3-D embossing folder – Boo Crew Embossing Folder. Make sure when you use a 3-D embossing folder you spritz the back of the paper lightly with rubbing alcohol or water to soften the paper fibers before running it through the machine. (I tried alcohol one day because my water spritzer was empty and I think I like it better for this task!)

After creating the background I die cut a frame using A2 Thin Frame Cutting Plate and Poppy Seed cardstock. I cut the cat and bat from Ghost Hugs Dress Up Die and Clear Combo. I added a little tone on tone ink and gel pen accents to dress them up a bit. I added a vellum layer underneath along with EEK! and BOO! from Spooky Sayings stamp set and coordinating die.

My second card features a new additions to the Postmarked collection: Postmarked Spooky Season Layering Stencil, Posted Marked Spooky Season 3D embossing folder and a Postmarked Spooky Season Foil It.

I started my card by foiling the Foil It with TE’s black Fun Foil. (I love this foil for the times when I want the details and shine but not metallic sparkle.) Next I inked the stencils with Sweet Potato, Lime Zest, Jelly Donut, Sweet Corn and Cookie Monster ink and TE’s blender brushes. On the last layer of the stencil instead of using just one color I blended the green, blue and purple inks. After inking I embossed with the coordinating embossing folder. I trimmed this panel and matted it with Cookie Monster cardstock and matted it again with Jelly Donut cardstock cut with A2 Large Scallop Stacklets. I added a sentiment from Spooky Saying die cut with the coordinating die and layered on a Cookie Monster and Jelly Donut circle stack.

Good morning! I hope your Tuesday is off to an amazing start! Today I have some projects to share with you using a Taylored Expressions product that I love! If you’ve been around here for very long you know I LOVE anything that makes card making quicker – sketches especially. When I saw we had new Happy Square Sheets releasing I was so excited. These are a great resource, especially when you need to quickly refill your stash of card. TE has a range of Happy Sheet products AND for a limited time you can earn double points in this category!

For my card I used Happy Square Sheets – a new take on Happy Half Sheets that starts with a 6×6″ piece of cardstock and creates 3-4 cards! I used Snow Season Stamp and Die combo to create the patterned base for my card. I started by stamping the snowflakes on Sugar Cube with Versamark and then heat embossed them with clear embossing powder. I used Plum Punch, Popsicle and Cotton Candy ink to blend over the whole 6×6 piece of cardstock. This created a custom piece of patterned paper for my project. Next I carefully (and potentially with a ruler and pencil first because I’m a measure 4,000 times cut once and still mess it up person) cut out the pieces according to the Happy Square Sheet map. I added some mats using cardstock from the same color family. One the card above I also added a mat cut from Sugar Cube using A2 Large Scallop Stacklets.

For this card I added a background mat of Sugar Cube embossed with Geo Blooms Embossing Folder and die cut with A2 Large Scallop Stacklets.

And this one I left as is with only a little corner rounding on one side.

I added some twine for accent. On the inside of each card I added one of the Insiders Berry & Bright with some holly from the Berry & Bright Coordinating Dies.

Good morning! I hope you are having a wonderful Tuesday. It’s been a busy week here in KC. We moved our daughter back down to Arkansas and did a massive clean out of the house (which feels really good) so we are ready for a fresh start to the school year.

Today is the Second Chance sale at Taylored Expressions and to say that we have a LOT of new goodies to coordinate with them is an understatement. There are SO MANY amazing products to check out!

The first card I have to share with you features the Fruit Cocktail Die Set ($100 gift with purchase from May 2026) which is so adorable! With this is used All Planned Out 6 and the very punny Fruity Fun stamp set and coordinating dies. I started this card by cutting out all of the fruit from Fruit Cocktail and ink blending the edges. Next I cut out All Planned Out 6 from Toffee and Salt Water Taffy (stamped with Polka Chic for a little texture). I arranged all of the fruits around the card, added little gel pen accents and finished up with two of the sentiments from Fruity Fun.

My second project features the Geo Blooms Embossing Folder (free gift with $100 purchase from February 2026) and the new coordinating products: Polka Dot Cutting Plate and Geo Blooms Stencil. I started my card with a Dried Fig cardbase. From there I die cut the Polka Dot cutting plate from Macaron cardstock then stenciled it with the Geo Blooms stencil with coordinating ink. After that I embossed with the Geo Blooms embossing folder for texture. I layered this on a piece of Potato Chip cardstock so the yellow peeks through the polka dots. I added a Sugar Cube frame from A2 Thin Frame Cutting Plate. To finish I die cut HELLO from Sugar Cube and Dried Fig cardstock using the Tall Tales Alpha Dies Set. I carefully layered the letters and adhered them to the top of the card. Next I added a few flowers from Garden Variety 2 Die Set in Potato Chip, Lime Zest and Honey.

My third project features the Silly Goose Stamp Set (free with $100 purchase April 2026) along with the new coordinating dies and Silly Goose Coloring Stencil. I started by stamping the Sketchy Stripes background stamp on Blu Cheese cardstock with Blu Cheese ink. Next I die cut the Mini Slim Frame in Frame Cutting Plate dies from Toffee, Pineapple and Cherry Pop. I layered the largest frame over the background. Next I stamped two of the geese from Silly Goose Stamp Set on Sugar Cube with black ink and used the coordinating stencil to color everything in. I did add a bit of grey accent with OLO markers on the body of each goose. After die cutting the geese I adhered them to the small frames from the Mini Slim Frame in Frame Cutting Plate. I wrapped a little twine around the cardbase, added the geese with foam tape and a sentiment.

My last card uses Springtime Sprinkles Background Stamp – March 2026 $100 GWP. I created this card by blending Dried Fig, Cotton Candy, Mint Julep, Mango, Candy Corn and Fruit Punch on a piece of Sugar Cube (this might be my new favorite TE rainbow!!). After heat setting I stamped the background with Springtime Sprinkles and Versamark then heat embossed with white embossing powder. I die cut this with the A2 Layer Stacklets. Next I die cut a piece of Sugar Cube with one of the A2 Large Scallop Dies and wrapped it with twine. I added To My Favorite Chick from the Hello Spring stamp set and added a flower from Another Year In Bloom (which is retired but could be substituted for any of the other Year in Bloom flowers).

It’s Tuesday and that means it’s time for a Taylored Expressions release and today we have a great new card making kit that is perfect for all of your birthday wishes! The Sweet Stacks cardmaking kit.

My first card is a fairly clean and simple card using the Make a Wish die set and Bold Birthday Greetings previously released. The inside is where the magic happens with the Sweet Stacks Layering Stencil and Party Pop Up Die.

The Sweet Stacks stencils and icing dies pair perfectly together and make the most gorgeous cake on the inside of the card.

My second card features the Sweet Stacks Layering Stencils and coordinating die on the front of the card layered with lots of candles from the Make a Wish Die set. For the background I used the 5×7 Funfetti background stamp with Lavender Glaze, Confetti Cake, Pineapple and Guava ink. I used the same colors to ink the stencils for the cake. The sentiment is from Building Blocks – Happy.

Happy Tuesday! I hope you are having a wonderful day so far! Today is release day at Taylored Expressions and this week we are celebrating Taylor’s birthday with some fun new birthday products and releasing a few previous products from previous Stamp Joys and Combo Club add-ons.

My first card pairs some new products with a couple of previously released goodies. I started by adhering a strip of Pineapple, Blueberry and Granny Smith cardstock to a sticky sheet and stamping the panel with Versamark then heat embossing with clear embossing powder. I trimmed this with A2 Layer Stackets. Next I layered a frame from A2 Thin Frame Cutting Plate. I die cut the Birthday Boy die from Pineapple, Blueberry and Granny Smith cardstock and put the colors together on the backer in Sugar Cube (this would be a FANTASTIC card to make multiples of). I added a secondary sentiment from Big Birthday Hugs stamp set. To finish up I added Critter Crew – Turtle and some birthday add-ons from Critter Crew Stamp & Die Combo – Birthday.

My second card features Postmarked – Birthday stencils and Foil-It with the Postmarked Cutting Plate. I foiled the Foil It with TE Fun Foil in Holographic Gold Glitter then stenciled with Bubble Gum, Pineapple, Honeydew Melon, and Tiki Mule. I die cut with the Postmarked Cutting Plate and arranged the stamps and envelopes on a layered square of Pineapple and Bubble gum cardstock cut with Square Stacklets and Petite Scallop Square Stacklets. I stamped the Pineapple layer with the Funfetti 5×7 background stamp with Pineapple ink. To finish up I layered all of this on an A2 piece of Toffee cardstock embossed with the Swiss Dot embossing folder and wrapped a little twine around the layered squares.

Good morning! I hope you are having a good week so far. Today Taylored Expressions has a super fun release today featuring stamps designed to help you connect with friends and loved ones that live all over the US. The Across the Miles release features stamps from all 50 states and a US map stamp and die. These are PERFECT for reconnecting and letting those that live far from you know you miss them! I made two cards with this release.

The first card features one of the state dies – Missouri, where I’m from. I made this card for my daughter who has moved to Arkansas full time. She’s currently in Japan on an educational trip but when she’s back she’ll be off on her post college adventure of working and maintaining her own apartment.

I combined the Across America – Missouri die and clear combo with Around Town Stencil, Postage Stamp Stacklets and the Stitched with Love Cutting Plate.

My second card uses Across the Miles with the coordinating die. I paired this up with the Shiplap Background Stamp and the Lots of Dots background stamp. I love the simple, rustic look of this.

Happy Tuesday! I hope you are doing well. Today I have two projects to share with you using the new Taylored Expressions Adventure Awaits card making kit. This kit is ADORABLE! This kit will be available while supplies last so you will want to hurry to get yours before they are gone.

My first card is inspired by my daughter who is about to head out on a trip to Japan for a fun educational opportunity and to visit her cousin. Needless to say I’m more than a little jealous. She ask picked up all pink luggage for her trip so I went with that theme for this card. I used Bubblegum cardstock for the background along with a little strip of Poppyseed inked onto Sugar Cube using the candy cane stripes from Stencil Strips Holiday. I stenciled all of the kit images on Sugar Cube using Bubblegum ink with Cookie Monster and a little bit of Tropical Punch and Oyster. Then I arranged everything over the map background stamped with Oyster on Sugar Cube.

For my second card I focused on the camera image on the stencil and I actually inked up a full rainbow but only ended up using part of it. I used the left over map piece from my first card along with some of the little add on images.

Happy Tuesday! I hope you are doing well today! Today I have a project to share with you using some of the free with purchase critters from Taylored Expressions. I used the Critter Crew – Bunny and Critter Crew – Hedgehog with their coordiating dies. I stamped these on Sugar Cube with Oreo ink and colored them with OLO markers. I paired these up with the new Instant Photo Frame Die set that I cut from Sugar Cub and inked the background with Dill Pickle and Cookie Monster and stamped with the flowers from the Ink Doodles Clear Stamp set and the butterflies from Ink Doodle – Holiday Clear Stamp set.
