I have four projects to share with you today that I created with new products for the Second Chance release at Taylored Expressions. Twice a year, TE brings back select past Gifts with Purchase so you have a second chance to add these customer favorites to your collection, along with  brand-new coordinating products!

How cute are these adorable geese! They are created with the new Porch Goose Die Set! The die set includes numerous accessories to dress up the geese. There is a cute raincoat and umbrella that I did not use on this card. I used a color combo of Watermelon, Pear, Confetti Cake, and Blue Corn. 

I die cut the arch with the Arched Stacklets and matted with the Scallop Arched Stacklets. The clouds are stenciled with the Set the Scene - Clouds Stencil Strips and the grass with the Set the Scene - Grass Stencil Strips.

The sentiment is from another fun goose set, the Silly Goose Stamp Set, and the card front is embossed with the new Tweed Embossing Folder. 

My next card is created with the Sweetheart Blooms Layering Stencil, Foil It, and Sweetheart Blooms Piercing Plate. The Sweetheart Blooms Foil It is foiled with Champagne Foil and stencil with Pink Champagne, Guava, Fruit Punch, Honeydew Melon, Green Tea, and Brussels Sprouts Inks.

Next I used the Sweetheart Blooms Piercing Plate to die cut the stenciled heart and matted the heart with the scalloped heart die included in the die set from Honeydew Melon Cardstock. 

The sentiment from the Lifetime of Love Stamp Stamp Set and die cut with the coordinating dies. I added the texture to the card front with the Quilted Cutting Plate Die. 

I love the fun, happy Sunkissed Shores Layering Stencil and the Sunkissed Shores Mosaic Dies. First I stenciled the background with the Sunkissed Shores Layering Stencil using Blue Raspberry, Rock Candy, Pineapple and Candy Corn Inks. 

Next I used Sunkissed Shores Mosaic Dies to created the center focal point. I die cut the die with Sugar Cube, Pineapple, Blue Raspberry, and Rock Candy Cardstock. I blended Salt Water Taffy Ink on the Sugar Cube Die cut and then inlayed the colored cardstock back into the triangle. 

I splattered gold watercolor on the background and added a few Gold Glitter Drops. The sentiment is from the Endless Summer Stamp Set. 

My last project features the Mega Messages Die Set and the Bitty Strips - Lots of Love Stamp Set.

The new kit is available now in the TE Store.

The kit works perfectly with any birthday stamps or dies you already I have in your stash. On the front of my card I used the Iced, Iced, Baby Die Set to create this fun cake. I used Banana Cream, Rose Water, Fruit Punch, and Sugar Cube Glitter Cardstocks to build the layers of the cake. I cut the frosting from Chocolate Truffle Cardstock and added Glossy Accents to add shine to the frosting. 

I created the candles with the new Make a Wish Die Set, available for purchase separately from the kit.

When you open the card it pops up! The kit includes laser cut panels that can be stenciled with the Sweet Stack Layering Stencil to create either a cake or presents. Here I created a cake and add the frosting with a die from the Sweet Stack Die that is included in the kit. 

Another option is to purchase the Party Pop Up Die which gives you the option to use other colors of cardstock. 

The sentiment is from the Piled High Birthday Stamp Set that is also included in the kit. 

Next I used the Hooray Hat Die Set for the focal point of my card front. I used a color combo of Salt Water Taffy, Confetti Cake, Mint Julep, Wintergreen, and Sour Gummy. I used TE Felt at the top of the hats. 

The background is embossed with the 3D Embossing Folder - Party Parade and the sentiment is from the Piled High Birthday Stamp Set from the kit. 

On the inside of this card I went with stacked presents look. I used Party Pop Up Die to die cut using Salt Water Taffy Cardstock.
