Project of the Month

Mar 11, 2008

Good morning! Last night I taught a class at my local scrapbook store and then I worked into the wee hours of the morning cleaning up the tornado that blew through my stamp room so that I could actually begin to create again tonight! Needless to say, I shut the alarm off when it rang this morning and woke up with no time to photograph new projects and type up a blog! So I thought I’d share this link with you:

https://www.stampendous.com/pomfdr/pom.html

Another card of mine is featured as the Stampendous project of the month! Make sure you check out Nichole and Heather’s Papertrey Ink sneak peeks today too! We’re one day closer to the exciting release!

One other little housekeeping item… many of you have asked for a permanent link to my store from my blog. I meant to have this up on launch day, but it just didn’t happen. You’ll now find an image link to the Taylored Expressions webstore under Recommended Shopping in my sidebar! If you’d like the code to insert the image link into your own blog, just shoot me an email at tayloredexpressions@gmail.com. Last week was exciting as I received some new product that I ordered at CHA! Stay tuned… it will be in the store soon!

This is so… cute! I love that little bunny peaking up over the word! I posted a card and the tutorial to go with it on my blog today using that very Stampendous stamp so I was so pleased to see yours. Know what ya mean about cleaning up the craft room- I cleaned my up last night and now I almost don’t want to mess it up again- teeheehee!

Wow! A cupcake that comes with a bella. LOL I agree with everyone else — you did a great job bringing her to life.

I printed off the sketch and had every intention of trying a fun card using it. But somehow life stepped in and I found I needed to make a sympathy card instead. In the end, I needed to stray from the sketch a bit to make it work, but you still gave me a good head start and I’m happy with how it came out.

Ok…I came back to post that I was going to give this sketch a try…of course first I had to say how cute this card was (again!…because it’s sooo cute!)…and then the baby melee started and…well…it’s deleted…sorry about that! Typing with a baby on your lap…a 10 mth old at that!…not a great idea when there is coffee on the table! Thanks for the great sketch and thanks for sharing such an adorable card. I am going to give this a try. 🙂

Loving it Taylor! Does the ribbon go all the way around the card, like, can you see it on the inside too? Or is is layered under the layers? Sounds weird but I think you know what I mean! LOL!
