Introducing a New Glittered Felt from Taylored Expressions

Hi! Taylored Expressions is launching a new product today! Glittered and Foil Felt! It is even more pretty in person. You can stop by the TE Blog for more information on the new felt and more inspiration!

This new glitter and foil felt can be cut with the following cutting options:

With the new black Mixed Media dies and a manual cutting machine (Big Shot, etc). The new glitter felt can not be cut with normal TE dies and a manual cutting machine. But it can be cut with any TE metal dies and an electronic cutting machine (Vagabond, Gemini, etc.) I have a Vagabond and that is the machine I used to create my framed scrapbook page.

I like to hang framed scrapbook pages in my studio. This photo is from one of daughter's recent wedding. I started with a piece 12 x 12 white scrapbook paper. To create the subtle background I used the Blooming Beautiful Stencil and Confetti Cake Ink.

I chose a sentiment from the How Sweet It Is Stamp Set and stamped with Versamark Ink on Vellum and embossed with TE Black Embossing Powder. The word "loved" is die cut with the Love Script Die. I cut the sentiment twice, once from Oreo Cardstock and once from TE Cut and Color Me White Chipboard and adhered the two layers together. The circles are die cut with the Stitched Frames Stacklets 2 from the new Sugar Coated Felt.

To created the flowers I used the Roll With It Flower 1 Die and the Bloomers 1 Dies. The leafy branches are cut with the Happily Ever After Dies and the Leaves with one of the dies in the Mega Leaves Dies. This sentiment is from the Happily Ever After Stamp Set. I used two additional glittered felt colors, Sweet Mint and Herb Garden.

I added Sugar Cube Enamel Shapes to the centers of the flowers cut with the Bloomers 1 die. At the bottom I created wedding rings with the Little Bits - Wedding Ring Die with TE Gold Foil and Sugar Coated Felt. I also added a few Snow Flurries Sequins.

You can find the new felt here.

Thanks for stopping by!

Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge - Speckled

It's April 1st and time for a new Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge - Speckled. I hope you get a chance to play along. The LEAD of this challenge will be invited as a Guest Designer in a future challenge.

I used the inspiration photo to create a Easter themed scrapbook page. It is nice to be working with some pretty spring colors!

I created with page with some new products from Pretty Pink Posh and patterned papers from the Crate Paper Maggie Holmes Chasing Dreams paper line.

I stamped the eggs, easter basket, and bunny from the Easter Friends Stamp Set, colored the images with Copic Markers, and die cut with the Easter Friends Coordinating Dies. I added the green border with the Stitched Borders 2 Dies.

I just love the new Stitched Notes Dies! It is just such a creative die set with so many uses. With the die set I cut the polka dot panel, cut the pocket, and added the little flags on my page. Inside the pocket I tucked the Easter Bunny, created with the Easter Friends Stamp Set, and then added the Easter basket.

I used one of the dies in the Easter Friends Coordinating Dies to cut the silhouette's of the rabbits and stamped the one of the sentiments included in the Easter Friends Stamp Set. I finished off the page with 4MM Metallic Gold Sequins and 6MM Metallic Gold Sequins.

Thanks for taking a look!
