Hi All! And a Very Happy Wednesday to you! 8-) Aren't you just Loving all the Fabulous New Goodies? Hope you are Loving them as much as I am! 8-) And just in case you didn't get a chance to stop by yesterday, I'm Sharing the news again...8-)  All of the new Taylored Expressions products are now available in the Fresh Out of the Oven Department. Yay!! 8-)

Well, today I'm back to share a a couple of Fun little projects and the first one features the Brand New Super Adorable Oh What a Holiday setwhich is the follow up to the Darling Oh What a Day Set and the Brand New Designer Mini Tags too...8-) 
I just Love this Super CUTE set! And it made it Super easy to get a head start on a few St. Patty's day cards too! Yay!  I stamped my Oh What a Holiday images with Memento Tuxedo Black onto Choice Snow White CS and colored them up with my trusty Copics! I added my fluffy clouds with Tumbled Glass Distress ink, my Cloud Border Die template & a small stippling brush. I cut them out with the help of my Classic Circles Large and Small Nesites sets and popped them up with a bit of Foam tape. My Mats and BG layers were created with Kraft and green CS, the Scallops & Circles Impression Plate and some  Darling dp's fromPebbles Seen & Noted 6x6 pad
To finish them all up I stamped my Many Minis- Holidays sentiments with Memento Tuxedo Black onto Designer Mini Tags Die cuts, added my Fun little borders with the Could Border Die, a little Liquid Applique, and a bit of Cheery polkadot ribbon from my stash all tied up in Sweet bows created with the help of my Bow Easy... 8-)

Next up I am featuring the Darling Brand New Bless Your Nest, the Coodinating Bless Your Nest Die set & the New Banner Stacklets 1 Dies  too! 8-)
OMGoodness! I just Love this Sweet set!! And I really Love that there are coordinating dies too! It makes it so easy to create Fabulous projects and cards! So many times I have wanted to create a Sweet welcome to the neighborhood or congrats on your new Nest type of card and this Darling set is So Perfect for just those occasions & more! 8-)
I stamped my Branch and Cute little nest with Memento Rich Cocoa and colored them up with my trusty Copics! I fussy cut them out and popped them up with a bit of foam tape. My sweet little birdie was stamped with Color Box Ocean ink, shaded with a touch of BG0000 and cut out with the help of the coordinating New Bless Your Nest DiesI added my fluffy clouds to this project too, with Tumbled Glass Distress ink, my Cloud Border Die template & a small stippling brush onto Layered Label Stacklets 2 Die Cuts. My Mats and BG layers were created with Choice Butter CreamKraft CS's, more Darling dp's fromPebbles Seen & Noted 6x6 pad and the Brand New Banner Stacklet 1 Dies too!

  6. Oh my word! Your St. Patty's day cards are AMAZING! I love how you use that cloud die and I'm totally going to steal that idea. :) AND... I can't believe you fussy cut that tree branch. I thought about it for all of 3 seconds before I started convulsing from images of bent branches and torn off leaves. BRILLIANT work today!
