It's Release Day at Taylored Expressions! I have two fun projects to share with you today, and I'll begin with this card featuring the newly released Love Monsters. I am so happy to see a set that I can use for my little boy and I thought I would create a card that he would love. These little aliens are so cute!
I started off by paper-piecing the two friend aliens (don't forget the tooth!) and added the darling "Besties" sentiment. I used some perfectly matched space paper and finished off with a bit of ribbon and some die-cut stars. A few little twinkly stars with some glitter and I had a sweet card for my favorite little man.
My second card today features the adorable new set, Buddy Bear. I stamped him out and colored him with Copics -- I used wide strokes to simulate "fur" on this furry friend and then fussy cut him out so that I could mount him on a frame I created with one of the very cool Layering Doilies. Isn't the detail on the doily fabulous?
I used patterned paper from this month's Project Pantry, along with all the cardstock and ribbon. This month's Project Pantry is perfect for Valentine's and includes paper from the darling With Love collection from American Crafts, plus cardstock and ribbon. Plus, you can "spice it up" with extras that perfectly coordinate. The sweet sentiment is just perfect for my thank you card that will go to whomever sends me the best box of chocolate for Valentine's Day!
