Taylored Expressions: All Tucked In Christmas

Happy Thursday Crafty Friends,

Have you enjoyed viewing the mini-collections this week on the Taylored Expressions blog? As the holidays quickly approach, the TE Creative Team is hoping to give share new gift-giving ideas for the holidays. Whether you are trying your hand at fashion jewelry or stepping up your tag game, there is something for everyone. Today, I am sharing the latest addition to the All Tucked In collection—All Tucked In-Christmas.


I lean toward traditional design aesthetics. Every time I take a design test to see my design style, low and behold, I come back as a traditionist. When I saw the new All Tucked In-Christmas stamp, I immediately thought of simple toffee-colored tags hanging from a classic Christmas gift box and adorning a vintage Christmas card. To create this set, I used a few of my favorite Christmas stamps and dies: Layer It Cardinal, Birch Tree Background, Simply Stamped Wreath, and of course, the All Tucked In collection. To make the card, I used Red Pepper cardstock to create an A2 top folding card base and stamped the cardstock with Mulled Wine and the Boughs and Berries Background stamp. The Sugar Cube panel features the Birch Tree Background stamp inked with Toffee ink. I did a little light shading using colored pencils for added depth and contrast. The Simply Stamp Wreath, Layer It-Cardinal, and Christmas sentiment complete the card.



The box is die cut using the All Tucked In die and coordinating All Tucked In -Windows. A few sprigs from the Holiday Florals stamp and die set, along with a Mulled Wine bow and kraft tag complete this cute box.


Thank you for visiting today. For more craft inspiration using the All Tucked In-Christmas, visit the Taylored Expressions Blog (HERE).

Happy Crafting,
