ReLEASE DAY -at Taylored Expressions!!!!!!!

Good Morning Everyone!

Today is Release Day over at Taylored Expressions and this release if filled to the very brim with amazing and wonderful new stamp sets and new Project Pantry kits - I mean serious crafting amazingness - for realZ!

Since I missed Day 1 of Sneak Peeks (hanging my head down in shame!) I wanted to show a card that I made using the super cute and awesome: Pet's Place stamp set that Taylor will be releasing today!! This cutie pie stamp set is part of the Taylored Expressions Giving Tree program . Every 3 months a new stamp set is introduced where a portion of the sales of that set are donated to a charity. This month we are so excited that the Pet's Place stamp set will support the Humane Society of the United States. The Humane Society of the US is the nation's largest and most effective animal protection organization. This amazing organization leads the way to prevent cruelty, exploitation and neglect of animals - along with providing direct care for thousands of animals at sanctuaries and rescue facilities, wildlife rehabilitation centers and mobile veterinary clinic. You can read more about this amazing organization HERE.

So for every purchase of the Pet's Place stamp set, $7.00 will be donated to the Humane Society. Since this stamp set is part of the TE Giving Tree Program - they will come as un-trimmed rubber in order to maximize the amount of money that will be donated to charity. I love the TE Giving Tree program - it feels so nice to know that by purchasing this stamp set, innocent animals will be helped.

Taylor is also releasing the Pet's Places Project Pantry today. Each project pantry comes with cardstock, coordinating papers, DP, ribbon and accessories - and I tell you - it makes it SO much easier to craft - no looking just opening a package and putting together a card! Here is a card that I made for one of our friend's son's birthday.

I love all the beautiful animals in this set and couldn't choose one to stamp - so I picked them all and I ADORE this sentiment: "Sorry I'm Late, its been a zoo around here"... HOW true is that? That's like the story of my life these days! Here is a close up of some of the cute animals in this set:

The papers and ribbons and little details like the paw print brad in the Project Pantry are SOO cute!!! Check out all the goodies in this packet:

Taylor is also releasing another Project Pantry today to coordinate with another new stamp set called Udderly Sweet (I ADORE that name!!!). Being an Iowa girl now - I am in LOVE (in LOVE, I tell ya!!) with this super cute stamp set --- totally filled with all kinds of awesome sentiments! She is also releasing the Udderly Sweet Project Pantry to coordinate with this stamp set. I couldn't wait to create something fun with this set - so I made a little barn trifold card that on the front of the barn - the sentiment says: "Hay there":

And when you open up the barn - there is farmer Cuppie with some cutie pie piggies with the sentiment: Hogs and Kisses on your birthday" (!!!) I love Cuppie's cutie pie expression!!

I stamped the DP with the fireworks stamp set and then cut out the pennants and hung them up and then stamped the sentiment and added a little bling, a flag that is cut out from the DP and some punched out stars. I had to add a little row of bling - because well - bling is always fun :)
