Taylored Expressions Dec 2015 Release Day: Roly Poly Panda

Hi Everyone,

Welcome to the RELEASE DAY of the December 2015 Release from Taylored Expressions!! Ok, can I just say that this is about the most favorite card that I have ever made!!!!! I was in heaven making this card because of the absolute cuteness of the Roly Poly Panda dies!! Ok Pandas are just adorable!! I wanted to create a Panda Couple and so used this die set to with different shades of black and gray to create two roly poly cutie pies - I also used a couple of different items from this release to create some essential love accessories for this card :)   :


Here is a close up of the little girl Panda - I used the Peek-A-Boo Heart dies for the heart that the Pandas are holding and for the sentiment, I used the Heart of Hearts stamp and combo for botht he heart and the curved sentiment, which I adhered over the Stitched Heart Stacklet - so so so much fun to assemble this:


And here is a close up of the adorable Mr. Cutie!! I had him hold some love balloons from the Love Is An Adventure stamp set that I then paper pieced and colored and then attached under his arm :) isn't he just so cute with his sweet little bow-tie!! 


Card Ingredients: Panda Love
Stamps: Heart Of Hearts Combo (sentiment: “I love You” and floral heart stamp) and Love is An Adventure (heart balloons)
Taylored Dies and Folders: Roly Poly Panda dies, Grass Border Die, Stitched Circle Stacklet dies, Love is An Adventure Dies, Peek-A-Boo Heart die (for the hearts that the pandas are holding), Stitched Heart Stacklets

Paper Pack: TE 6x6 Hello Happiness paper Pack (pink bow and soft pink polka dots)

I just about fell over with a cuteness overload when my first panda was assembled and then then to have two of them --- ack! so so so cute!! Ok, I will admit that I held one in each hand and then pretended like they were talking to each other!! LOL!! I created a little scene with some Whimsy Grass border and then added a little sentiment to the center and finished it off with some glaze to the Pandas eyes! I just loved loved loved making this card!

Taylored Expressions Day 3 Sneak Peeks: Roly-Poly Fish and

Hi Everyone,

Welcome to the second day of the December 2015 Release from Taylored Expressions!! All of the stamps and dies that will be released this month are seriously beyond ADORABLE!!! To start today's sneak peek I have a card I made using all dies again with one of the sweetest little set of dies: Roly Poly Fish - this comes with a die for the water in the goldfish bowl, fishies, bubbles and heart die.  I started out by die cutting all the different pieces (the fish from the 6x6 Build a Scene paperpack), the water from Salt Water Taffy cardstock and also used the Embroidery dies to create the outer Goldfish bowl.  I also used the Picture Perfect Valentine for the sentiment: Love You - and I absolutely love the way it turned out: 


Here is a close up of the fishes - aren't they the cutest!!!  The background of the goldfish bowl is vellum and I sponged and embossed the water using the Bubbles Embossing Folder for a more "bubbly" look :) and added the heart in the center: 
Card Ingredients: Love You
Taylored Dies and Folders: Roly Poly Fish dies, Picture Perfect Valentine die, Embroidery Hoop die and Bubbles Embossing Folder
Premium Cardstock: Poppy Seed, Cherry Pop, Sugar Cube and Salt Water Taffy
Paper Pack: TE 6x6 Build A Scene paper pack (orange DP for the goldfish)
Inks: Memento Rich Cocoa, Bahama Blue

Accessories: Sponge Dauber, Foam Tape, Best Glue Ever, Vellum paper, Pico Inkessential Wedding Cake and stickles

For my second project, I used the Love Always Wins stamp combo with the Love is An Adventure and I just love how cute all of these elements were to put together!! The stamp combo of Love Always Wins comes with this super cute tic-tac-toe die with "X" s"O"s  and and I {heart} You --- I absolutely LOVE how this turned out!!!


Here is a close up -- love these lovebirds and the I love you:
