Taylored Expressions April 2014 Sneak Peeks – Stroke of Genius & When Your Heart Speaks!

It's our final day of Taylored Expressions Release Week Sneak Peeks! Tomorrow is RELEASE DAY! We have lots more fun to share with you today and tomorrow, you know, to keep this party going! Are you enjoying all the new stuff? This is an awesome release.

I have two more projects to share today and they both have kind of an 'artsy' theme. There are some great new art-themed stamps sets this month and I used them today. LOVE.

First up is a cream and brown monochromatic card using the set called When Your Heart Speaks. I was going for an old fashioned look with this…and you guys know how much I love text paper!!

I used an impression plate on cream paper to make my background. I wanted a little something back there instead of plain paper. I layered my main piece onto some text paper. It was HARD not to color this image!! I'll be coming back to do that on a different card later!

These flowers are the perfect size for cards! I added Doodlebug sequins for the centers….

My next project today is a cute and fun mini canvas and easel and a matching note card. This is a fun little gift for a crafty friend I think! The mini easels are already in the TE Store (CLICK HERE) and you could make all kinds of fun things with them! I was thinking they would be really cute for place cards at a dinner or something….

The paint spatters in this stamp set are sooooo cool! These could have so many fun uses! I stayed with a primary color palette to make it seem more artsy. Really had fun with this project.

    Even though I love your monochromatic card, I think those flowers and brushes would be a blast to color.

    I’m new to your blog. I love all of your cards they are beautiful. And I love the way that you photographed your designs. I do have a question. The canvas is so adorable and I would love to make one for my husband. Did you use paint or ink? Thank you and keep bringing your wonderful cards. 🙂
