Taylored Expressions Bright Holiday Season

Today, I’m sharing a holiday card featuring one of the images from Taylored Expressions Deck the Halls, which I colored with Copic markers and fussy cut.

I cut the hill with the Taylored Expressions Build A Scene – Rolling Hills die set and added trees from two other Build a Scene sets – Winter Trees  and Central Park. The patch of ice (which I decided to cut in a whimsical color) was cut with a die in the Central Park set. The sentiment is from the TE Share the Light stamp set. The snowflakes were cut with the TE Little Bits – Snowflake Confetti set.

 

CASE This Sketch #144 – Spirit of Christmas

I’m playing along with the CAS(E) this Sketch #144 Challenge.

I love repetition and the Taylored Expressions Little Bits Present die set seemed perfect for this sketch.

I cut the presents from both green and red cardstock and topped them with die cut silver foil ribbons. I stamped a sentiment from the Taylored Expressions Deck the Halls set and heat embossed it with Ranger Super Fine Silver Embossing Powder onto the card base. The presents were added with dimensional adhesive.

Fall Hello Die Cut Tag

Today I’m sharing a fall-themed tag featuring the Taylored Expressions Little Bits Fox.

I combined the die cut fox with several favorite scene builders – the Lawn Fawn Grassy Border and Impression Obsession Beach Fence. The sentiment, from a retired Hero Arts set, was stamped on a Memory Box cloud.

Hope your week is off to a great start!

End of Summer Beach Scene

Today, I’m sharing a “Thinking of You” card in honor of the end-of-summer. The changing of the seasons is always bittersweet, and for me, especially at the end of the summer!

I created this card a couple of weeks ago when the weather was still summery, but today the PNW drizzle has resumed! This will probably be my last “summer-themed” card of the year as Halloween and holiday supplies are now out on my work table! I used the Taylored Expressions Build a Scene Rolling Hills and Rolling Waves to create the sand and waves. While the Avery Elle stamp set coordinates with their Hello word die, I find myself using the sentiments alone as I really like the font.

Using Repetition – Nautical CAS Card

After creating this nautical-themed card, I had many lighthouses left over, as I had experimented with different construction techniques, as well as color combinations, when creating the lighthouses. So I put together a CAS card with the leftovers practicing the design principle of repetition!
