Taylored Expressions - Roly Poly Christmas Tags/Ornaments! 8-)

Hi all! And a Very Happy Thursday to you! 8-) Hope you all had a Wonderful week so far! 8-) Well, today I'm back with a quick post, to share my latest Taylored Expressions creations inspired by TE's Awesome New Roly Poly - Penguin & Reindeer Dies, TE's New Stitched Circles Stacklets, TE's New Special Delivery Stamp set, along with TE's Build-a-Scene Christmas Matched Kit as well, to create a BUNCH of Super CUTE Christmas Tags/Ornaments! ** (please be note, this is a picture heavy post, lol)...8-)  
Aren't these just the sweetest little fellows?  I had so much fun putting them together, let me tell ya! I just couldn't stop, as you will soon see.. lol I know they will definitely be put to good use though, as tags and or ornaments too! So I figured what the hay, right... ? lol ;-)
These guys were super Easy to put together too.. I started  off cutting out all my Roly Poly Die cut pieces for my Sweet Roly Poly Penguins & Reindeers, and did a little shading here and there with Vintage Photo, Antique Linen, Tumbled Glass & Victorian Velvet Distress inks to add some fun dimension and character to these little Sweeties.. ;-) 
Then of course adhered all the pieces to TE's New Stitched Circles Stacklet Die cuts in the appropriate CS and patterned paper colors... 8-)
For my Sweet little Roly Poly Reindeers, I used Simple Stories Sweater Weather patterned papers for their Roly Poly Bodies and ears... ;-)
And I added a touch of Stardust tickles to their cute little Red noses too, just for fun! 
I adhered an additional Stitched Circles Die cuts to the back of each Tag/Ornament so I could stamp TE's Special Delivery sentiments on the backs, plus it gives them a bit more weight just in case the receiver wishes to hang as an ornament after opening their gift.... ;-) 
Aren't they CUTE!!   8-) Love their cute little Victorian Velvet Rosy cheeks lol .. ;-) 
And to add a way to attach  the tags to a package and also to hang as Ornaments,  I sandwiched a small loop of sparkly ribbon from my stash between the two layers of Stitched Circle Stacklets of my Roly Poly Penguins and Reindeers... 8-) 
See, Easy Peasy... ;-) 

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




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

Taylored Expressions - Season's Greetings! 8-)

Hi all! And a Very Happy Thursday to you! 8-) Hope you all had a Wonderful week so far! 8-) Well, today I'm back with a quick post, to share my latest Taylored Expressions creation inspired by TE's Awesome New Simply Stamped - Pinecones Stamp set, TE's New Simpy Stamped - Pinecones Coordinating Dies  & TE's  previously released Frame in Frame Cutting Plate as well, to create these Sweet Christmas cards...8-)
I really had Lots of fun putting these festive rustic Holiday cards together! 8-)  Sometimes it's just fun to get all inky with some good old fashioned stamping, ya know...? 8-)  And I Love how quickly these came together too, since I am still in Christmas card stash replenishment mode, lol. I am hoping I will be able to come up with enough cards for the ever growing Christmas card list this year, lol... 8-)
I started off by stamping several of TE's Simply Stamped - Pinecones onto TE's Toffee Premium CS with the help Memento Desert Sand ink, then Brushed Corduroy Distress ink, then Memento Rich Cocoa and topped them off for the last stamped layers with Colorbox Frost White ink.  I cut them all out with the help of TE's New Simply Stamped - Pinecones Coordinating Dies and Adhered them to my Focal Panel's Pine Boughs that were stamped with Memento Rich Cocoa and Memento Bamboo Leaves ink for my Pine needles, then shaded with Antique Linen Distress ink.. All my Mats and BG layers were created with TE's Toffee Premium CS, TE's Frame in Frame Cutting Plate distressed with Vintage Photo Distress ink and TE's Cherry Pop Premium CS as well.  To finish them all up  I added my Simply Stamped - Pinecone bow die cuts, added a little shading with my trusty Copics and lastly stamped my Simply Stamped - Pincones Sentiments with Memento Tuxedo Black directly onto my Focal panels...8-)

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



Hope you all have a Super day & Thanks so much for stopping in! 8-)

Taylored Expressions - Peace Joy Love 8-)

Hi all! And a Very Happy Thursday to you! 8-) Hope you all had a Wonderful week so far! 8-) Well, today I'm back with a quick post, to share my latest Taylored Expressions creation inspired by TE's Awesome New On the Line NorthPole Cutting Plate, TE's New Eventful-Night Before Christmas Die,  TE's New In & Out Christmas Stamp set, along with TE's New Build-A-Scene Christmas Matched Kit as well to create these Fun Christmas Cards... 8-) 
Can I just tell you I  Love how simply festive these cards turned out! 8-)  And trust me they were very simple and came together very quickly too! And if you are anything like me, with a hectic schedule & time constraints, etc. lol, then you know I am really loving that, lol! 8-)  I am always looking for items that help me make something quick simple and Fabulous and these Awesome TE Dies definitely did! Yay! 8-)
Well, I started off by cutting out all my die cut pieces from TE's Sugar Cube Premium CS with the help of TE's Awesome New On the Line North Pole Cutting Plate, TE's New Eventful-Night Before Christmas Die & TE's previously released Build-a-Scene - Rolling Hills Dies too. Next I stamped TE's New In & Out Christmas Sentiment with Memento Tuxedo Black onto my Build-a-Scene - Rolling Hills layer and assembled my Sweet wintery scene with the help of some foam tape for added dimension. 8-) My Mats and BG Layers were created with TE's New Build-a-Scene Christmas Matched Kit. And to finish them all up, I added touches of sparkle with Stardust Stickles, though it's hard to see here, they are really Very sparkly and Super pretty IRL. See, Easy peasy, huh?... ;-)
