Rosy Posey...Taylored Expressions Sneak Peek Day 1!



It's 2012! It's finally here, a brand new year, and what better way to kick it off than with a sneaky peekie from Taylored Expressions! If you are cozied up with your family watching the Tournament of Roses Parade, you'll love the first set of the new year, a lovely new set called Rosy Posey. (Keep reading for information on some fun giveaways!)

I still have a lot of people to thank from the holidays, so I wanted to make a pretty thank you card. I began by creating some stamped patterned paper with one of many pretty rose leaves. I then used the largest of the soon-to-be released Layering Doily Dies, running it through with an embossing pad and, after stamping some of the beautiful images from Rosy Posey, I cut around to create a frame. I stamped more of the blooms and die-cut with the coordinating dies, along with some embossed leaves. A very simple and sweet sentiment finished off my pink posey card.
