Adding to the RAINBOW

Give me all the BLUES! and PINKS! and MANGO! and even DILL PICKLE! It’s new color ink and cardstock release day at Taylored Expressions! With seven gorgeous new colors to extend the RAINBOW! Don’t these blues scream summer? Here I’ve paired them with Pool Party and OLO Marker. Water are you waiting for?

Oh YES! Get a load of these new pinks – Dragon Fruit and Bubblegum! YUM! I call this color way The Candy Striper. I’ve paired most of my designs today with the phenominal new Easy Strip Maps that make colorful cardstock backgrounds so easy. There are new Easy Strip Stitched dies in the store, and it’s just easy as can be to line the strips up or make beautiful patterned backgrounds lickety-split. The stamp set here is full of fun sentiments, and the set name is the same as this one, “oh yes, you did!” I gave this card to my daughter for her college graduation.

I think a few solid layers of cardstock turn the simplest card with just a greeting and some jewels into something special and more substantial, so I know I’ll be using the Easy Strip Maps over and over.

Pretty much the best ink new color beauty! The Daisy Dreams stamp, die and stencil combo that was released in the For Her collection is just beautiful in coneflower colors. Here I’ve paired the Bubblegum and Dragon Fruit with Mango and Dill Pickle for bright summer fun!

And, throw a little KIWI into the fruit smoothie! The Easy Strip Maps are also great for layering with simple die shapes, like these Subtle Sprigs and Thinking of You. The maps are on thin weight paper, so after you create your design, you are still able to die cut the thickness of the color way. Here I put a white scallop layer in between, and everything just POPS. Can you tell that I am in love with the new colors?

Finally, I had to throw in some Christmas red (Cherry Pop!) and some Dill Pickle green. They pair perfectly with the Little Critters Christmas collection. Love, love the new Stitched Strip Dies and Maps to create fun, fast, colorful backgrounds. These will make Christmas cardmaking a breeze!
