Happy Wednesday Crafty Friends,
I hope this post finds you well and enjoying the beautiful spring weather. Today, I am popping in to share a card featuring Matchy Matchy-Foodie Friends, Flippin' Awesome and So Many Thanks. I love it when I "rediscover" stamps and dies in my craft room. These three sets came out at three vastly different times, and yet work together beautifully to create a fun card.
To create this card, I started by stamping a Sugar Cube panel with the cheese grater stamp from the Flippin' Awesome stamp set in Sprinkles and Candy Corn dye ink. I then stamped, Copic colored and die cut the happy cheese grater from the Matchy Matchy-Foodie Friends stamp set. I die cut several cheese slices using the Little Bits-Mac & Cheese from Candy Corn and Lemon Meringue cardstock to act as a backdrop for my smiling foodie fan. A "grateful for you" sentiment and heart enamel shape completes this fun card.
Thank you for stopping by. I hope you have a chance to head into your crafty space this weekend to rediscover a few hidden stamp/die gems in your own stash.
Happy Crafting,
Keia

Happy Tuesday Crafty Friends,
Today, I am sharing a 3x3 Thank You card trio. If you are like me, there are never enough Thank You cards in your card stash. And while most of the time I am happy to create on the standard A2 canvas, it is nice to switch things up a bit. The 3x3 format allows me to create a beautiful card without a lot of extra fuss. Or in my case, the dreaded white space. I love clean and simple cards, but every time I try to create one I keep fiddling with it until there is not any white space left. A little creatively defeating. Oh, well. For this card set I am using the new to me, Sketched Blooms stamp set.

I hope you are all well and enjoying the start of a lovely week. I am over the moon. I now have more time to play in my craft room. I recently completed a financial accounting class. While I thoroughly enjoyed the class, I am looking forward to spending some creative time in my craft room. Bring on the stamps and dies!
Today's card is a collaboration between Taylored Expressions and PageMaps featuring the Build a Cake die set.

I hope you had a lovely weekend. I enjoyed a little time in my craft room, and that always puts a smile on this mom's face. Today, I am sharing a card featuring the Lookin' Sharp stamp and die combination set. I adore this set, mainly because I am in LOVE with succulents and cacti. Such hardy, wonderful plants that offer hope to the garden-challenged. I wrote HOPE, because I killed my cactus so hope is lost on me. However, I can stamp, die cut and color one or two. =)

Happy Friday, Crafty Friends!
Are you looking forward to heading into your craft room this weekend? Well, I am glad I made a little time to play in my craft room. St. Patrick's Day almost passed me by, and I couldn't allow that to happen. My sweet hubby is a huge fan of St. Patrick's Day, so I wanted to make a card for him. Today, I am sharing a card featuring Taylored Expression's Shake Your Shamrock (stamp/die combo).

Happy Thursday Crafty Friends,
How is your week? Ready to craft this weekend? Have you checked out all the awesome goodness from Creativation 2018? After viewing the wonderful videos from the show, I am ready to create! Today's card features the Ships Ahoy (stamps/die combo) and Paddle Out stamp sets, which I enjoyed inking and stamping.
To create this card, I stamped a piece of Sugar Cube cardstock with little sailboats in a random pattern. I then stamped and die cut a sailboat four times from Sugar Cube, Cherry Pop, Woodgrain, and Playful Patterns-Savory paper, and paper-pieced the sailboat together. Next, I die cut two waves from Sprinkles cardstock using the Build a Scene-Rolling Waves die. A stamped sentiment, and red twine finish this card.
Thank you for stopping by. For more inspiration featuring these stamps and dies, visit the Taylored Expressions Gallery.
Happy Crafting,

Hello Crafty Friends,
Happy New Year! I hope your new year is going well and you are enjoying your crafty Christmas presents. I enjoyed spending some much needed downtime in my craft room organizing and loving on my new crafty gifts, too.
Each new year, brings with it an opportunity to contemplate our choices, reevaluate our priorities and set new goals. Taylored Expressions is making some new changes for the new year, too. If you did not know, Taylored Expressions is now doing their new releases on an every-other-month basis. What does this mean for you? It means the Creative Team will have new designer features to share with you, and hopefully encourage you to get into your craft rooms to create something beautiful with old favorites and new finds. For more information on what to expect, check out Taylor's video on YouTube (HERE).
Today, I am showcasing a card from our new series entitled 'Designer Choice.' I love the idea behind Designer Choice, because it allows me to go back and revisit a stamp and/or die I previously did not have an opportunity to fully explore. Seriously, even I have a TE 'new pile' stash that I am longing to create with.
The Noteworthy stamp set might be one that is easily overlooked. The stamps work well to create quick stationery note card gift sets, but is equally functional for stand alone cards. I love the medium-sized script font and pleasant sentiments featured in this set. To create this card, I paired the sentiment with the Fresh Florals stamp and coordinating die set, along with the Striped Background stamp for an elegant Thank You card. The striped background panel was die cut using the Stitched Square Stacklets and then die cut again (Stitched Circle Stacklets) to create a focal point for the sentiment. A bouquet of fresh flowers, Baker's Twine and inky splatters complete this card.
My second card also features a sentiment from the Noteworthy stamp set. I was on a roll, why stop?
I love this sentiment, because it reminds me that each one of us is a masterpiece. This card paired the Noteworthy set with the Frame in Frame Cutting Plate and A Life She Loved stamp and coordination die set. An A2 top-folding Sugar Cube card base was inked using Salt Water Taffy dye ink and embellished with a few inky splatters. The canvas for the sentiment uses Distress Oxide inks and the watercolor smooshing technique to add a bit of whimsy. The image featuring the jar of paintbrushes was stamped onto Copic-friendly paper, colored with Copic markers, and Ranger's Glossy Accents was added to create a glass effect.
I hope you have enjoyed this trip down memory lane featuring the Noteworthy stamp set. If you own the set, dust if off and show it a little inky love. If the set is new to you, I hope I have inspired you to take a closer look at a hidden gem. You can visit the Taylored Expressions' Gallery for more inspiration using this stamp set (HERE).
Thank you for stopping by! Happy stamping, my crafty friends!
