Taylored Expressions June Sneak Peek - Delightful Day and Teacup Bouquet


Hello everyone and welcome to day two of the Taylored Expressions June Sneak Peeks!! Weren't the sample cards from yesterday awesome...the Baker's Dozen  is such a fabulous design team and I am so thrilled and honored to stamp along side them as the Guest Designer for the last two months!!!

Yesterday I went masculine with the surfer dude and a patriotic card. Today I am going feminine and a little shabby. My first card features stamps from the Delightful Day set.  This set was previously released in 2012 as a KI exclusive set and now it's available to everyone!!!   The little birds were paper pieced with some scrap papers and the wings were popped up with foam dots. The leaf stamp was used to stamp a wreath using Wild Wasabi and Certainly Celery inks. The background papers are from Basic Grey's True Love and the seam binding,  sequins, distressing, and a little sewing  finish it off. 


Don't you just love this sweet teacup image....it's called Teacup Bouquet and it was so much fun to color!!! Copics were used for the coloring and the the perfect plum card stock in the background was embossed with a tiny heart folder. I couldn't help it...just had to add a few sequins to the doily in the background and the seam binding is the finishing touch. 

Remember, tomorrow is Release day at Taylored Expressions, 8:00 AM PST!!! 

Now, are you ready to see more sneak peeks from the Baker's Dozen Design Team?? Check it out!!


Thanks for stopping by...have a great day!!!!
