A Paper Melody: Taylored Expressions November Release Sneak Peeks

Hi Everyone! Thanks for stopping by for Day 2 of Taylored Expressions November Release Sneak Peeks. Continuing with the gift giving theme I have a set of cards to share using the new Pitch Black Stamp Set.

The sentiments on all my cards are included in the Pitch Black Stamp Set. I die cut this sentiment with the new Sentiment Stacker 1. I used a Grumpling from the Exercise Grumpling Stamp Set and die cut with the coordinating Exercise Grumplings Dies. I added the two Donuts with the Little Bits - Donut Die and add a few sprinkles with Nuvo White Crystal Drops. Behind the Grumpling I added a circle with the Stitched Circle Stacklets and embossed the card front with the Bead Board Embossing Folder. I finished off the card with a few Oreo Enamel Shapes.

On my next card I used a Grumpling from the Grouchy Grumplings 2 Stamp Set. I cut out this sentiment with the new Inside Scallop Rectangle Stacklets, which coordinates with Stitched Rectangle Stacklets. A great way to create frames! Behind the sentiment I sponged on clouds with watercolor paper and Tumbled Glass and Salty Ocean Distress Ink. The owl is colored with Copic Markers. The branches are die cut with the On the Limb - Branches and the leaves with the On the Limb - Leaves.

This card also features a Grumpling from the Grouchy Grumplings 2 Stamp Set. The Grumpling is framed with the new nside Scallop Circle Stacklets, which coordinates with Stitched Circle Stacklets for creating frames. The patterned papers are from the new Playful Patterns - Bold Paper Pack. I used the polka dots on my cards and the flower pattern to line my envelope. TE is releasing a Scalloped Envelope Liner that is designed to fit our A2 envelopes with a square flap. I love this idea!

Here is the fourth card in the set. I used a Grumpling from the Exercise Grumpling Stamp Set and die cut with the coordinating Exercise Grumplings Dies. I created the frame with the Inside Scallop Rectangle Stacklets. And the cupcake is die cut with the Little Bits - Cupcake.

I packaged the card with the lined enveloped in a clear cardbox and used the Noteworthy Stamp Set and Noteworthy Belly Band to create the band around the box.
