March 14, 2016 Pam Sparks22 Comments

Hi everyone! I’ve been missing you but here I am, back again! lol I’ll show you the Memory Box/poppystamps class cards in my next post.

I love this cute NEW Build a Scene Bistro die set! I die cut 4 of the new Build a Scene Window dies, set them together to make a larger window. Then a little watercolor to mimic the sky in the background.

The rug is from the NEW Build a Scene Nursery die set. I die cut it in watercolor paper and colored it with Distress Inks.

The wall is the Bead Board Embossing Folder and the floor is the Weathered Embossing Folder.

I used the NEW Little Bits Let’s Talk Bubble 1 and the sentiment ‘Missing You’ from the NEW Sit and Chat stamp set

I used glossy accents on the flower vase and mugs…wink of stella clear glitter brush pen on the flowers.

A scene we could walk right in to and pick up right where we left off!

Fun to chat again…’preciate you stopping by!

Taylored Expressions March Release Day…

March 3, 2016March 4, 2016 Pam Sparks23 Comments

Welcome to my blog today! It’s March release day at Taylored Expressions! I’m featuring the NEW Build a Scene Nursery! So many cute details for creating adorable cards! I used the NEW Build a Scene Window, Little Bits Rocking Horse and Welcome Baby Banner dies with it too. The sweet coordinating pattern papers are from the TE Double the Joy paper pack.

My next card is a lot of things I love! Kraft card-base, lots of white, a little bit of black and super cute images and sentiment!

Today TE is releasing the Hippo Birdy die set to go with their previously released Hippo Birdy stamp set! YAY! Such a fun set! I could’ve made several more cards to share, if only I didn’t need to sleep, eat, laundry etc! haha The dies are so easy to use, just place over the stamped image, line up and run through the machine. They are outline dies! YAY!

My scene needed a little more, so I added some Wispy Grass cut in Peapod green TE card-stock and the small cloud from Build a Scene Cloud. A little washi tape at the top and bottom and images colored with Zig Clean Color Brush watercolor markers. Look at that ‘mug’! Just makes a gal smile!

Memory Box Happy Spring and Springtime Bunnies…

March 1, 2016March 4, 2016 Pam Sparks24 Comments

Hello and happy Spring the bunnies say! I created this card with the Memory Box Spring Bunnies Stamp and Die sets. I love that you get dies for every image in the set! I stamped with the MISTI and Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copic Sketch Markers. The grass is the Memory Box Prairie Grass die.

I die cut the grass and postal frame and then inked with Mowed Lawn and Salty Ocean Distress Inks. Spattered on some water, swabbed it up and then spattered on some of the inks that I diluted a touch with water.

Bunnies are colored with E40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 47; Ears – R20, 21, 22; Pot – E95, 97, 15, 19; Flowers – YG25, YR04, RV25

A little white Signo gel pen to accent the bunnies and the flowers… I had trouble with it coming off this time! ugh. I wish there was a finer line white pen that worked good!
