Taylored Expressions October Sneak Peeks Day 1!

Hi all! And a Very Happy Tuesday to you! The Baker's Dozen Design Team is sharing a pre-release sneaky peek of all the new Taylored Expressions sets and dies that will be available for purchase in the  Fresh out of the Oven Department at the TE StoreThursday October 4th at 8:00 am PST Whoo Hoo!! 8-)  And Today, I'm sharing a couple of special sneak peeks.. 
The first one features our Brand New Rejoice full size set of 13 Christmas and holiday sentiments in a beautiful font combination for TE's Lasting Impressions Line, our Brand New Holly Cutting Plate and our New Label Stacklets 1 as well..
I had So much Fun with these sets! I just Love how quick and easy it was to put together some really Beautiful, Elegant Christmas cards! I now have hope that I might actually get ALL my Christmas Cards done in record time this year! Yay! lol Gotta Love that! 8-) I stamped my sentiments with Memento Tuxedo Black onto Layered Label Stacklets 1 die cuts and popped them up with a bit of foam tape. My mats and BG layers were created with a combination of Old Olive CS, Choice Buttercream CS and dp's from Authentiques Festive 6x6 collection. To finish them all up I just added some fun polka dot ribbon from my stash and added the holly berries with my Spica Red Glitter pen. Here are a couple more cards that I made in Super CAS fashion...
  See, even with minimal effort you can create something really Fabulous!! How Awesome is that! Here are some pics of a couple of individual cards..

And, here are the New Taylored Dies I used for my project...

My next project features the Super Cute A Bushel & A Peck Stamp set that Jen, Jami and Taylor collaborated on and was designed by the Fabulous Doug Applegate for his Apple Doodle Ink stamp line, and coordinates wonderfully with our previously released All Aboard and Loads of Fun sets. This set is So Adorable &  fun to work with! I chose to create a Cute little set of Halloween cards as I still need a few more to send out to friends and Family this year... 8-)
I Just Loved the Versatility of this set, so many Adorable baskets and buckets, etc, and just as many fun images to put into them and mix and match to your hearts content! .. I did a bit of masking and stamped my images with Memento Tuxedo Black and colored up my Fun Jack-O-Lanterns with my trusty Copics. I did a little paper piecing on the wheel-barrow and added my spooky clouds with 
a TE Clouds Border Die cut, Dusty Concord Distress Ink and a small stippling brush. My Mats and BG layers were created with Black and Kraft CS, Labels Stacklets 1, TE's Spooky Impression Plate and The Tricks and Treats Project Pantry Kit. The Fabulous sketch is Karen Giron's SSSC168 Here's a pic of on of an individual card...8-)
And here Karen's Awesome Sketch and here is the New Talyored Die I used on my project as well...
We will be sharing lots more inspiration through out the rest of the week, and you can also join us as a fan on Facebook for an early peek at the stamp sets, as well as a SPECIAL Facebook GIVEAWAY, on Wednesday night beginning at approximately 6 pm PST.
