Taylored Expressions Sneak Peeks - Day 2 - Belated Birthday A La Carte

Good Morning Everyone,

Welcome to Day 2 of the Party over at Taylored Expressions as all of the Baker's Dozen continue the paaartaaaay with some more awesome sneak peeks - today we are featuring some MUST HAVE birthday images that are beyond practical Taylor will be releasing a ton of new stamp images with coordinating sentiments that are perfect to create belated birthday wishes!!! These stamp images were the brilliant concept of Jami Sibley - and I am so glad to have these particular stamps because - Let me tell you - I am the worst when it comes to mailing out a card/package (as some of you already know :))) and I am in love with every single one of the adorable Belated Birthday A La Carte stamps that helps to create the perfect birthday card!!!

There are 7 Belated Birthday A La Carte stamp images that Taylor will be releasing on Friday - and the lovely thing is that you can pick and choose which ones you would like to purchase individually - although - its hard to pick just one ;) ! I couldn't wait to create a card using the Belated Birthday: Stand Out stamp set using the ingredients from the Make A Wish Project Pantry kit that is my favorite birthday card ingredients set - isn't the sentiment hilarious!!! :) Love it!

***Also on the right side - the little white faux stitching is part of an awesome stamp set that Taylor will also be releasing on Friday called Borderlicious! LOVE that you can just stamp out a quick border!

I couldn't stop - but had to create another belated birthday greetings car using THE cutest ducks evah - called Belated Birthday: Ducks in a Row - I LOVE seriously love this sentiment (and although I hope that one day I will get my ducks in a row - I seriously don't think that day will happen anytime soon! ;) The top part of the card is also a border that is part of the Borderlicious stamp set -

After I made this card - I thought it would be fun to create a little birthday card holder and so I busted out my brand spankin' new Cinch from Taylored Expressions - woo-hoo!!! I cannot even tell you HOW awesome this little machine is - seriously - it really IS a cinch!!! You can check out this awesome How-To Video that Taylor made on how to use the Cinch (which is what I was watching a couple of times last night as I finally took it out of the box! :) I couldn't believe how easy it was to create this 6x6 Birthday holder notebook:

Here is a closer picture of the notebook (I decorated the front of the card using the Make a Wish stamp set that we sneak peeked yesterday) along with the Make a Wish Project Pantry Kit:

I created 8 pages with pockets to hold some birthday cards. To make the page pockets - I took a page of 8.5 x 11" and scored it at 6 and 8.5 and then cut it lengthwise at 6 inches, then I folded up the bottom part and attached some brads/eyelets to keep it in place. Here is a picture of the first page:

I stamped the bottom of the page with the AWESOME Bubbles BIG background - isn't this stamp set awesome - I stamped down the bubbles and then colored in a few of the bubbles on the page. Here is the second page of the notebook:

I love that this notebook can hold my birthday cards and also inspire me to send them out on time - because they are already made to be Belated!!! LOLOL!!! I can't wait to check out all the amazing creations that the Baker's Dozen has come up with today with all of these wonderful Belated Birthday A La Carte images!!!!! Check these awesome ladies out!!!
