A2 Thin Frame Cutting Plate

Today, Taylored Expressions has this fun new release picked by TE Customers! Lots of goodies are added to the catalog by YOU and available over at Taylored Expressions today!

This is the new Boots & ‘Brellas Die Set and it goes swimmingly with so many flowers in the TE line up. I adore this Umbrella and I wanted to use just this to make a card–Because I love Rainbow umbrellas on a rainy day!

I even used Dried Fig–so that’s something, right? A little blurple addition! The sentiment is from the Drop a Note set which now has coordinating dies–can I get a whoop whoop! 😎

I created the background of this card using the Cloudy Skies Piercing Plate, A2 Thin Frame Cutting Plate and Diagonal Stitch Rectangle Stacklets. This turned out so fun to send a friend in the mail! These new dies go so well with lots of things in your stash for sure–I can’t wait to tinker around some more myself!

Next up, let’s pop back to the 80’s a bit shall we? Anyone still have a working tape deck? I still have tapes, but I can’t say I have anywhere to play them. 😆

This card includes the previously released Mix Tape (originally in the card kit) and this new set of Headphones from the Feel the Beat set.

These great sentiments are from the Mini Strips – Mix Tape and the 80’s background is the Mix Master Background Stamp.

The embossed panel was created with the Embossing Folder – Tiny Twinkles. It’s so fun how this came together and I’d be lying if I didn’t say I wanted to listen to a little 80’s rock now! 😂

Be sure to check out all the fun over at Taylored Expressions today!

Today, over at Taylored Expressions, we on our second Throwback Thursday for this month! That means more Second Chance releases, with several extras now available! SO Enjoyable! 🙂

First up, we have Label Stacklets 13! One of my favorite bins I reach for on the reg, is my TE Stacklets! So I always love when we get a new addition to the the Stacklet Team! 😁

I thought it would be fun to use the smallest Label Stacklets 13 and create a bold and graphic card! Grab your scraps, hit play on a movie and bam–you’ll have a pile of puzzle pieces to combine and put together to create your own unique combos!
I cut out the whole panel afterward with the Additional A2 Layer Stacklets. CLUTCH for creating this kind of design–so so easy to trip it up that way vs. how I used to do with my trimmer. (which you can still do, of course! I just inevitably would catch the blade and mess the whole thing up–ugh! 😑 ) I also wanted to round it out with the Wavy Stitch Stacklets. I sort of have to resist using that set on most every card. 😋

Next up, there is a new All Planned Out 2 set that has a plethora of dies to grab and mix & match to create different layouts and designs on your card. I’m just going to say it now: I will be using the biggest die in the set possibly too often? Is that possible? I 😍 IT! 🙂

I used the Conversation Candy Stamp & Stencil Combo on this card, just without the stamp–to send a little love!

The Hello is in the All Planned Out 2 and the Mini Strip Sentiment is from the Mini Strips Hey Lady set! The frame is from the A2 Thin Frame Cutting Plate. I was going to use one of my favorite flower layering stencils for this, but thought–let’s send some love!

Lastly, one more quick share using the new Label Stacklets 14. I wanted to create a terrarium for the Framed Flowers (now with dies!) could set inside…. and then, why not make that a shaker? Love it!

I probably could have used just one flower for this card, but I wanted to sneak them all in there 🙂

Shakers are always fun to get right?

Think of all the plants you can put in there! 🙂
