Crafty friends, one of the most customer-inspired releases of the year is almost here!

Twice a year, we ask you which Taylored Expressions products you’d like to see expanded. Maybe there’s a stamp set that would be even more versatile with coordinating dies. Perhaps a favorite floral design is waiting for a coloring stencil. Or maybe you’ve imagined an accessory, sentiment, background, or finishing touch that would help a product already in your collection do even more.

You share your ideas, and our team takes it from there!

The next Pick Your Pairings release arrives Tuesday, August 18 at 9 AM CT, filled with new products designed to coordinate with TE favorites you may already own. These thoughtful additions help you explore new techniques, create for more occasions, and get even more creative mileage from the products in your crafty collection.

A new Pick Your Pairings release calls for an extra-special gift!

Beginning Tuesday, August 18 at 9 AM CT, you’ll receive the TE Exclusive – Blooming Bits 6×6 Background Stamp with a retail purchase of $175 or more, while supplies last.

Blooming Bits features a cheerful garden of hand-drawn flowers, leaves, buds, and tiny botanical accents. Stamp the full background in one ink color for a quick card front, heat emboss it for added texture, or color individual blooms to create a bright, playful design.

Valid online and in the Studio Tuesday, August 18th at 9 AM CT through Tuesday, August 25th at 9 AM CT. While supplies last.

Get a Peek at the Products!

Color, Cut, and Create With More Dimension

Several customer-requested additions will make it easier to build dimension and customize your card layouts.

The new Random Act of Kindness Dies cut out the encouraging sentiments and cheerful icons from the coordinating stamp set, allowing you to arrange, layer, and pop them up anywhere on your card front.

The Enjoy Retirement Dies turn stamped retirement greetings into polished focal points that can be layered over scenic backgrounds and celebratory designs.

Holiday crafters can give three festive stencil designs a dimensional upgrade with Triple Slim – Holly Holiday Dies. The dies cut out the poinsettia, holly arrangement, and greenery-filled Christmas tree created with the coordinating Triple Slim layering stencil.

And for even more holiday fun, the new O Christmas Goose collection includes a stamp set, coloring stencil, and coordinating dies featuring four festive geese. From ice skating with a present to dressing up like a Christmas tree, this playful flock is ready to bring plenty of personality to your Christmas cards.

Give Your Favorite Florals New Color

A few familiar flowers are ready to bloom in brand-new ways.

The Just Because Blooms Coloring Stencil helps you quickly add layered color to the coordinating stamped floral and leafy images. Change the palette to create cards for birthdays, gratitude, encouragement, thinking of you, or no particular reason beyond letting someone know they matter.

The Floral Embrace Coloring Stencil brings layered color to the detailed Floral Embrace design. Create soft, delicate bouquets or experiment with bold, joyful palettes to completely change the feeling of the finished card.

You’ll also find the Floral Embrace Cutting Plate Die, sized to fill an A2 card front with intricate, lace-inspired floral detail.

Add Shine to Designs You Already Love

Prefer a little shimmer? Two new Foil It options make it easy to combine layered color with the polished shine of TE Fun Foil.

Foil It – Quilt Squares coordinates with the Quilt Squares Layering Stencil, letting you stencil colorful quilt-inspired designs before (or after) adding foil. Cut apart the finished squares to create focal points for several different cards.

Foil It – Smiley Squad works with Create-in-Quads – Smiley Squad + Clear Add-ons. Each finished design can be trimmed into four cheerful card fronts, helping you build a batch of bright birthday cards in less time.
