Taylored Expressions May Sneak Peek: A Buck for Father’s Day
Hey there! Guess what starts today? The sneak peeks for our May Release… WOOT WOOT! Mother’s Day is this weekend so hopefully your creations for moms, grandmas, aunts, and sisters are finished. Because today the Baker’s Dozen and I are focusing on fathers with spectacular new dies and sentiments just for him! All of the new products you see today will be available at the TE Store on Thursday at 8am PST.
So let’s get started! Here’s the card that I created for today’s sneak peeks using the amazing new Birch Tree Cutting Plate, Birch Tree Accessories, and Band It:
I started with a piece of Choice Buttercream cardstock and used my Copics to airbrush the orange/yellow background. Then I popped the Birch Tree background (cut from Kraft cardstock) over the top with foam tape.
The Band It die is a super cool 3 piece die set that includes a band that can wrap around a vertical or horizontal card front and two additional dies that can layer inside the frame of the band. I chose to use the ‘Happy Father’s Day’ sentiment from the new Greetings for Him set to finish off this card. Oh wait, I almost forgot about the super cool buck! It’s part of the Birch Tree Accessories die set that also includes an owl, cardinal, birdhouse, and sign that you can place among the trees. So other than the stamped sentiment, my card is made completely with dies!
The rest of the Baker’s Dozen gals have totally outdone themselves with their sneak peek projects so you’ll definitely want to hop along to check ’em out! And make sure you mark your calendars to stop back tomorrow for more peeks of the May Release!
