Joy To The World - Taylored Expressions

Hi All and a Very Happy Tuesday Evening to you! 8-)  Thought I'd pop in real quick to share my Latest Taylored Expressions creation... I just Love the Darling Very Merry Stamp set and thought I'd make up a few more quick Christmas cards that also feature the coordinating Very Merry Outlines Dies, Very Merry Scallops Dies and the Fun Quatrefoil cutting plate too.. 8-)
I've done a similar card with this set before, but I really needed a few more and in good old fashioned traditional Christmas colors and dp's! 8-)  I created my Sweet mittens with the Very Merry Stamp Set and Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive and Rose Red inks.. I cut them out and matted them up with TE's Very Merry Outlines & Very Merry Scallops dies and popped them up with a bit of foam tape onto layered SB Classic Circles and Scallop Circles die cuts.  My Mats and BG layers were created with Choice Buttercream,Old Olive, Cherry Cobbler, Bazzill & Kraft CS's and some Festive dp's from Simple Stories Handmade Holiday 6x6 collection as well as Echo Park's This & That Christmas 6x6 collection and the Fabulous Quatrefoil Cutting Plate too 8-) To finish it all up, I stamped my Many Mini's Holidays Sentiments with Memento Tuxedo Black, added some Pretty Olive w/cream dot and Red Glimmer ribbon & a fun little Prima buttons all tied up with various Yummy Doodle Twines.. 8-)

 Here are pics of the individual cards...


And here are all the fun items I used for my project today...


Hope you all have a Super evening & Thanks so much for visiting! 8-)
Thanks for stopping by!

    These are all so pretty and fun. Next to snowmen, I love gingerbread houses and mittens. My little kittens lost their mittens and don't know where to find them.
    Happy Holidays Sugar!
