Enjoy - Taylored Expressions - SC444

Hi all! Hope you had a Wonderful Weekend! ;-) Things have been SUPER Busy here, but Good! 8-)  I recently got back from Summer CHA in Vegas! What an Awesome show that was!! And Saturday we were off to Angel Stadium for Kenny Chesney's Concert! Yay! That was a Total Blast! I sure do Love me some Kenny! He put on one heck of  a concert!! ;-) Goodness, I've just been running all summer so far,lol so now you know why I've been a bit MIA in Blogland lately. I really do appreciate all your Sweet comments & promise to be around soon to leave you all some Love... ;-) Now for today, I thought I'd pop in real quick to share my latest Taylored Expressions creation inspired by the SC444 Sketch challenge & TE's A Day in Paradise Set! Just Love this Awesome Beachy set! So Perfect for Summery cards of all occasions! 8-)
I had lots of fun creating my Shabby/Beachy card! And SC444's sketch was just perfect for framing my Sweet Beach house too.. Also, I am so psyched that I finally got to use my beloved crimper that I just HAD to have, lol Yay!! 8-) I  really like how this one turned out, wish I had a Beach cottage like this one to vacation in... Sigh...;-) 
I stamped my Dreamy A Day in Paradise Beach House onto Choice Snow White CS with Memento Tuxedo Black and colored it up with my trusty Copics. Next I added my Fluffy clouds with a template I created with TE's Cloud Border Die, Tumbled Glass Distress ink and a small stippling brush. My Mats and BG were created with TE's Choice Kraft CS, SB'sClassic Circles Nesties set, a Crimper, my Snow Cap Paint Dauber,a  bit of foam tape and patterend paper from MME's Blink of an Eye 6x6 Collection. To finish it all up I stamped my Sentiment onto a TE Designer Mini Tag Die cut, added hand-cut strips of mesh ribbon, and a fun shell button all tied up with some Yummy baker's twine. Hope you like it! And now I am off to go finish up some fun TE projects for the up-coming August Release! Whoo Hoo! So stay tuned!...8-)

 Here are the items I used for my project today...



Hope you all have a Fantastic day & Thanks so much for dropping by! 8-)
Thanks for stopping by!

    Beautiful design Shannon. The textured you've created and the 'net' lace, look fabulous with the beach house. Lucky you to have gone to CHA. Take care, Shirleyx

    This is the cutest little beach house and you used the perfect beachy colors with it! Thanks for reminding me of all those shell buttons in my stash. I finally got a Snow Cap paint dauber after seeing all you've done with it. One of these days I might even get around to using it. Thanks for all your inspiration, Shannon!

    What a lovely little cozy beach house your colored up so pretty, Shannon! So glad that you were able to go to CHA in Vegas...how fun! And, seeing Kenny Chesney...yeah! We'd love to see him again. We saw him way back in 1996 when he was just starting out at our county fair. Take care and looking forward to seeing more TE creations!
