Arch Nouveau & 2025 Calendars

I’m sharing a gorgeous new set from Taylored Expressions today that was designed to go with the beautiful Arched Calendar collection. I’m showcasing the set on a handstamped, heat embossed card.

I stamped the arched floral images on Spearmint cardstock with VersaMark and heat embossed with Gold Embossing Powder. Then I cut the arches with the coordinating dies and layered them with vellum sprigs from the Subtle Sprigs die set and the toffee layer from the Pierced Grid (FAVORITE!) cutting plate. I stacked it all on the a Postage Stacklet layer that was brushed with Toffee ink for a little bit of depth and weight on the bottom. Finally, I added a gold embossed sentiment from the Sundry Sentiment set. I love the font in this one, and I love how this card turned out.

The Arch Nouveau Bundle includes a free class this month. Check it out:

The Arch Nouveau Bundle that I used to create my card is $79 and includes:

• 2025 Arched Desk Calendar
• Arch Nouveau rubber stamp
• Arch Nouveau Coordinating Dies
• Sundry Sentiments rubber stamp
• Sundry Sentiments Coordinating Dies
• FREE Craft Along Class!

Next up, with a twist on my traditional style, I created some calendar panels with the new 2025 Mini Tear Off Calendars and a stack of Office Funnies. These were fun to put together.

I created legal pad backgrounds with the Notebook Paper Background – you do have to mask off the vertical lines to stamp pink, and then reverse mask to stamp the blue, but I think it was it was worth the effort. I colored a few of my images with Prismacolor Colored Pencils and one with OLO Marker.

Finally, I used the Alphabet die to add NOTED and MEMO to the edges. A fun and easy gift for your favorite co-workers.

There are so many styles of calendars to choose from in this week’s Taylored Expressions release. Funny, punny, beautiful or cute – there is something for everyone!
