Today I have TWO projects to share with you! We have a new stamp designer here at Taylored Expressions and today I'm using her first stamp set! EEEK…it's so great! You guys will love this one!  

TUESDAY1

Stamp Set – Love Grows Here – introducing our newest illustrator, Emily Burger, and her collection called Embracing Grace. Emily kicks off her collection with this darling set of 7 tree vignettes for year-round fun and versatility! (full size set – 18 images). Like I said, you are going to love this one! I had such a hard time choosing which tree to use for my card today. You just gotta check out all the other gals' blogs today!  

TUESDAY2

Isn't that the cutest sentiment!? The Hello wording next to the tree comes with the set too. I colored the tree and the little beeeeez with my Copic Markers and then I added some clear glaze to their wings and faces to add a little dimension.

TUESDAY3

I cut out a circle with my Nestabilities and popped up the window on some foam tape – I am really liking this effect lately. I also popped up that sweet little hive with some foam tape!

TUESDAY4

 

TUESDAY5

 

The seoncd card I have to share today is made with on our our newest Moka stamps! Her name is Moka Morgana and she is an adorable ballerina!  

Stamp Set – Moka Morgana – Illustrated by Nancy McKinney for the Moka Collection. Nancy was inspired by her daughter who loves to dance! What girl hasn't dreamed of being a ballerina at some point in her life? (set of 5 – Petite set) 

TUESDAY6

 

Isn't she too adorable? The color scheme for this card was inspired by my memories of taking ballet classes as a wee lass. Back in the olden days (haha!) we always had to wear a black leotard and pink tights and pink shoes… I must say that it is both classic and classy and I like how this card came out very feminine… 

TUESDAY7

I stamped the sentiment onto some vellum and then added a pretty resin flower…. 

TUESDAY8

I think this is a very nice saying…don't you? See you tomorrow!

      I totally remember the days of black leotards and pink tights. In fact I took an adult ballet class about 10 years ago and have that stuff in my closet now. Beuatiful job with Morgana. Oh and I <3 your tree card so much that once I saw it last week I had a hard time thinking of something else to do when I made mine! ha!

      Incredible cards Wanda! I’m in love with your first card (I have a weakness for bees) seeing your card makes me want this set your card is perfection! And your dance card is everything it should be, pretty, soft looking and wonderfully colored!

    22. Phyllis Beaver Avatar

      Love your cards! Can you tell me what you used on the green flower on your “bee tree” card? It almost looks like chunks of rock sugar candy! So pretty! Would love to know what you used! Thanks!

    23. Wanda G (stampcat) Avatar

      Hi Phyllis! You didn’t leave me your email address, so I hope you see this! The green flower is from Prima and it came with that chunky glitter already on it. I bought them a few years ago though. Not sure if they have them anymore. 🙂
