A Friend... - TEKI July

Hi all and a Very Happy Thursday to you! 8-) Hope you've all been having a Wonderful week. Mine's been pretty good so far, I've been busy in my crafts room doing a little re-organizing and tidying. Yay! 8-) I don't know about you, but I just create better when things are somewhat organized, lol  I have a hard time creating amongst a bunch of clutter, and trust me,  my crafting area was getting pretty cluttered, lol! 
Well, today I'm back with my latest creations featuring Taylored Expressions July Key Ingredients Kit! This month's Kit is just Fabulous! 8-) I LOVE the Beautiful dp's & all the fun elements too! 8-)
Sorry about my photo quality today! I was having a heck of a time getting my Auto focus in line! So some of the text is a little blurrier than I would like, but if you click on the pics, it's a bit clearer closer up..Anyway..lol For my project today, I created a Pretty little gift set for a Dear friend's Birthday, and she just Loves Pink and Green together, so I am pretty sure she will like this Card and matching post it note holder. 8-) And everything I used on it is from the TE Key Ingredients Kit, accept for a few buttons. My sentiment panels were created with the help of my Classic Ovals, Scallop Ovals, Classic Squares and Scallop Squares Nesties sets and were stamped with TE's Friendship Blooms Sentiments with Memento Rich Cocoa and shaded with a touch of Victorian Velvet distress ink. My Sweet layered flowers were created with the TE Friendship Blooms Diesthe TE Leafy Branch die and I added the Pretty TE Magestic boarder too!

I really had a lot of  Fun putting this Sweet Gift set together and I just love how it all came together so Quickly too, thanks to the help of TE's Fab July KI kit! 8-) Everything goes together so well, it just takes the guesswork right out of the equation. Love that! 8-) The tutorial I used for my Post it Note holder is HERE..  Now there are lots of these tutorials out there, but I really like this one as Carolyn has her's set up a bit differently with the pen holder on top. Makes it just Perfect, IMHO, to add a cut magnet strip to the back and put it right up on the fridge! 8-) 


Here are the Taylored Dies & KI Kit I used today..
Hope you all have a Super day & thanks so much for stopping by! 8-) 
Thanks for stopping by!
