Everything is coming up flowers with the 2nd Chance Taylored Expressions release! This week’s release is full of beautiful items that have previously been a gift with purchase and not available for sale. Now is your chance if you missed them the first time around!
I had so much fun creating a wide variety of projects for today!
I’m kicking it off with the adorable Shaker Tag Dies with the Dutch Garden Foil It and Coordinating dies. LOVE these Dutch Garden dies. The mushrooms and flowers are so crisp and cute by themselves, but the pair perfectly with many other TE products, ahem, gnomes. 🙂
I cut the mushrooms and flowers from a variety of bright TE Premium Cardstock, and I cut the shaker tag from a Dutch Garden Foil It panel for a quick finish. I used elements from the shaker tag, as well as the Dutch Garden dies to create my shaker elements. The Happy Birthday is from the On Occasion Suite – using the Foil It Panel and Champagne Deco Foil (my favorite color!). All of the products I used today are linked below for your convenience!
To pair with the Shaker Tag, I created a cute card using the Dutch Garden Foil It Panels and leftover pieces cut with the Coordinating Die elements and the Rainbow Mini Strips. The sentiment was embossed with Cookie Monster Embossing Powder. Really quick and cute, but my favorites!
Next up, I created a Mini Slim Birthday card – I recently organized my cards, and I’m super short on birthdays! – with the Coneflower and Antique Pail dies. My flower pieces were die cut from Sugar Cube and colored with OLO Marker.
The antique milk pail was cut from Cookie Monster cardstock and blended on the edges. White splatters where added with Sugar Cube Premium Ink. The Sugar Cube panel was accented with the Mini Slim Diagonal Stitch dies and splatters before the floral arrangement and Taylor’s Tiny Diamonds were added. The whole ensemble was wrapped in twine and popped up on a card base of Cookie Monster cardstock.
Finally, I used the Garden Variety dies with the Get Thready Heart dies (released last week) to create some cute felt Valentine or spring tags. So fun!
To create the tags, I cut all of my elements from TE felt and stuck them in a little kit bag that I carried around to various errands where I knew I’d be in the car or sitting idle for a few minutes. It was the perfect on-the-go project!
This is a perfect time to try your own Garden Variety creations as the flower dies and the antique pail dies (from the wildflower card above! are part of a fun gift-with-purchase bundle.
