Patriotic

Today is the Patriotic release over at Taylored Expressions!! I always feel like this indicates SUMMER is HERE! 🙂

This card uses the new Foil It-Americana and the new 6 x 6 Background Americana. Love the new Americana background as it pulls apart to create two separate backgrounds you can use for a plethora of occasions! You’ll see one below 🙂

This is a new Fun Foil for Blueberry and there is a Blueberry Sparkle Star Fun Foil. I’m excited about them both, but used the Blueberry and the Red Stars Sparkle!

I thought this would be a fun shaker card using the Bits & Pieces Patriotic. I also foiled the star panel and thought I’d use that with the shaker bits, but went with the Circle Stacklets and Stitched Frame Stacklets 3.

I mixed it up using the Star Fall Background with the stripes from the Americana. Oh and the sentiment is new from the Americana Expressions–lots of these are perfect for sending cards to those women and men serving or those who have served. 💓🤍💙

These are the new Insiders. I foiled with the two different colors and I like how it turned out!

Next up, I used the new Hang on Stars in a fun way for an any day card, showing that while this release is Patriotic, it is WAY versatile!

I did an ombre on the Americana 6 x 6 Background–love splitting that! I think I am going to reach for it often for celebration cards and just general background stripes.

These sentiments are from the Mini Strips-Summer set and work for many occasions! Such fun–I should have made more at the time–as usual 😂 But I have enough stars cut out for more!

And before I forget, there is a new fun Exclusive June Gift over at TE! Be sure to check out all the details on how to receive it there, but here are some samples using the new Fanfare Cutting Plate. Eeeeep! I am definitely going to use this one OFTEN! 🙂
