Taylored Expressions August Sneak Peeks Day 2!

Hi All! And a Very Happy Wednesday to you! The Baker's Dozed DT is  back with Day 2 of our Pre- Release Sneak Peeks!  Whoo Hoo! 8-) And Remember all our Brand New August Release items will be available in the TE Store this Thursday August 9th at 8:00 am PST! Yay!  Today we are focusing on Our brand New Background stamps and  Dies.  And I'm giving you a special sneak of the Super Fun and Versatile Chevron Big Background Stamp, illustrated by Taylor Vanbruggen! 8-)
I had Soo Much fun playing with the Chevron Big Background Stamp and putting these Darling Lunchbox notes together from the Fun Custom Backgrounds I created with it too!! 8-) Be fore-warned though, lol I have lots of pics to share as each of my Sweet little Lunchbox notes has a different sentiment inside too! 8-) 
I began by stamping my kraft CS with Versamark watermark ink and heat embossed it with Clear EP. All my little Lunchbox note closure flaps were created with October Afternoon's 8x8 9 to 5 collection and the TE Frame it up 1 Die.
All my Images and Sentiments are from the Absolutely Adorable Doodle Notes Stamp Set Concepted by out Very Own Amazingly talented Jen Shultz and illustrated by the Fabulous Nancy McKinney for her Whimsical Wishes stamp line! Each of my focal images were stamped with Memento Rich Cocoa and colored up with my Trusty Copics. I cut them out and matted them up with the help of my Classic Circles Large, Small and Scallop Nesties sets. I added a touch of shading with Tumbled Glass Distress ink while the die was still in place and popped them up with a bit of foam tape.
I used the Fun Notepaper A la Carte Stamp and Coordinating Notepaper & Clipboard Dies to create the inside of my Sweet little Lunchbox Notes and did a bit more stamping with more  Darling Doodle Notes images, but this time with various Distress inks, ie: Tumbled GlassVictorian Velvet Bundled Sage.  To finish them all up I added a bit of light shading with my Copics, stamped all my sentiments with Memento Tuxedo Black and added a few little Stars created with TE's Reach for the Stars Border Die  for a Fun decorative touch! 8-) 
And Remember to please join us on Facebook for the Preview Party Wednesday evening (Tonight!) at 6:00 pm PST - It's going to be Such a Blast!  8-) You will get to see All the New Sets and there will be Lots of prize drawings too, but it all goes by Soo fast! lol So I Hope you can join in the fun and maybe win some Yummy New goodies too! 8-)
