Happy Release Day TE Fans and Crafty Friends!

I hope you have enjoyed this week's sneak peeks. Today, I am wrapping up the week with two cards featuring the Alphabet Soup Cutting Plate and Grid Background, which coordinates with the Buffalo Plaid Background.

Hello Taylored Expressions Fans and Crafty Friends!

One more day until release day! I hope you have been enjoying sneak peeks from the Creative Team. There is so much craft happiness in this release and a little something for everyone on your card list. Today, I am sharing three projects: a funny baby card, handmade stationery and a card of encouragement.

Happy Tuesday Taylored Expressions Fans,

How did you like Day 1 of Sneak Peek week? Fabulous inspiration, right? A feast for the eyes =) Today, I am sharing two card projects using a few oldies, but goodies. First, is the Mama & Me stamp with the addition of the coordinating dies. Awesome, right? If you are like me, fussy cutting is not my best crafty skill.

Happy Release Day Taylored Expressions Fans,

I hope you have enjoyed all the fabulous sneak peeks this week! So many awesome goodies, so little time. Today, I am sharing with you a collection favorite...Grumplings! I love the Grumplings and the witty sentiments that are a part of the stamp sets, and this month's addition will be a baby cards favorite. The Grown Up Grumplings is the newest addition to the Grumpling collection (along with Mr. and Mrs. Grumpling, which I will use later this month =)).

What I enjoy about this set is how the sentiments and images relate to real life. I have two fabulous, rambunctious little boys, and each of the sentiments has either passed my lips or been in my thoughts at one time or another. I know there are other parents who can relate.

Happy Monday Fellow Crafters and Scrappers,

I love starting the week off with a little crafty inspiration. Today, I am sharing Taylored Expressions' Block Party-Baby, Little Bits Onesie and sentiment from Mama & Me.

Happy Thursday Taylored Expressions Fans!

We made it to Thursday and it is release time! Wahoo! I hope you enjoyed the creative inspiration the Baker's Dozen shared this week. I am always amazed at the level of creativity from those fabulous ladies.

Today, I am showcasing the Mama & Me stamp set along with Block Party-Baby die. I can only write that this stamp is just too cute! There are several wonderful mommy and baby images along with sweet sentiments. The Block Party-Baby is a wonderful addition to the Block Party Collection.

Happy Thursday!

The week is almost over. I cannot believe how quickly time is passing by. Summer is almost over and soon my oldest son will be starting kindergarten. I cannot believe it!

This week's challenge at Just A Scrappin', is to create a card, layout or project for a new arrival in the family using pastel colors. I decided to make a little boy baby card. This card came together relatively easily until the last minute when I am looking at the card and thinking to myself it is missing something. I then spent the next half hour trying to decide how to complete the card. At first, I colored the stars. Didn't like it, wrong color. Then I used glossy accents to add shine. Didn't like that either. Finally, I thought, "Glitter?" Glitter, was the answer.

Please stop by the Just A Scrappin' blog to view the cards, project, and layouts of my fellow design team members.

Thank you for visiting.

Good morning Fellow Crafters and Scrappers,

Last week, we had a wonderful turnout at Just A Scrappin'. Thank you for jumping right in and sharing  your awesome cards, layout and project with us. This week at Just A Scrappin' we are welcoming all things new, especially our precious little ones. This week's challenge is to create a new baby or new pet card, layout or project using any colors of your choice.

This was another great challenge for me since a dear friend of mine is due to have a sweet, baby girl at the end of May. My friend decorated the nursery using an owl theme, so my card is in keeping with that motif.

Please stop by the Just A Scrappin' blog to check out the other projects, cards and layouts by my fellow DT members...you will be glad you did.

Happy Scrapping,

K
