Papertrey Ink March Release Countdown Day 1

It's the Easter Release at Taylored Expressions!

Hi Crafters! I am popping in today with projects I have created with the new Easter Release at Taylored Expressions. There is something in this release for everybody. All the new products are available now in the TE Store. 

Let's start with a look at the new Tisket A Tasket line of products and the adorable Bitty Box Bunny Accessories and Giftable - Bitty Box. 

I used the A Tisket A Tasket Die Set and A Tisket A Tasket Die Set - Easter to create this sweet Easter Basket. The A Tisket A Tasket Die Set creates the basket and can be used for many other occasions. The set includes the dies to put together the basket, flowers and leaves, and a bow. 

The Tisket A Tasket Die Set - Easter is what I used to create the all the Easter items. I love how the bunny hangs over the basket. 

I added the sentiment with the new Pennant Picks Die and Clear Stamp Combo. The clear stamp set has sentiments for many different occasions. 

The background is stamped with the Scattered Meadow Background Stamp with Confetti Cake Ink on Salt Water Taffy Cardstock. I used the Rounded Rectangle Stacklets Die Set and the Ridged Rounded Rectangle Stacklets Die Set to the cutout in the center of the card. 

And how sweet is this treat box! The Giftables - Bitty Box Die creates a small box and then you use the Bitty Box Bunny Accessories Die and Clear Stamp Combo to added the ears, heart nose, and feet and stamp the sweet face. I used Cupcake Felt inside the ears. 

I used Postmarked - Springtime products to create this card.  First I used the Postmarked - Springtime Layering Stencil with a Foil It Postmarked Springtime panel. I used Champagne Foil. I stenciled with Rose Water, Fruit Punch, Kiwi and Potato Chip Inks. 

Next I embossed the card front with the Postmarked - Springtime Embossing Folder. The embossing added such a nice texture to the card. 

The sentiment is stamped with the new Hip-Hop Happy Easter Stamp Set and die cut with the coordinating Dies. 

I used the A Tisket A Tasket Die Set Easter to add the additional embellishments. 

My final project showcases the Risen Indeed Die Set. You can see how the circle dies layer together to create the scene. Behind the cross I added a circle die cut with the Rays Pierce & Cut Plate Die. 

The sentiment is from the new The Promise of Easter Stamp Set and die cut with the coordinating dies. I added the flower with the previously released Garden Variety Dies. 

I stamped the background with the Scatter Meadow Background Stamp using Macaron Ink on Macaron Cardstock.

Easter Greeting

 Hi and thanks for stopping by! Today I have Easter and Spring projects to share that are created with new products from the Pretty Pink Posh March Release. This collection features eggs, bunnies, tulips, butterflies, and more to inspire all your upcoming Easter and Spring projects! You can find all the new products now in the PPP Store. 

My first card features the Carrot Shaker die, the Upright Greeetings: Easter, and the adorable Springtime Borders Stencils. 

I created this carrot shaker by die cutting the Carrot Shaker four times. I glued the layers together adding acetate to the first layer. Then I dropped in Sugar Pop Shaker Beads.

I attached sentiments from the Upright Greetings: Easter Stamp Set at the top of the carrot. I die cut the sentiments with the Sentiment Strips Dies. 

The background is stenciled with the Springtime Borders Stencils. I think this such a cute stencil! I die cut the card front with the Stitched Torn Rectangles Dies. 

I have a second shaker card I created with the Tulip Shaker Dies. On this card I just created a shaker with the tulip part of the flower but can create a shaker in the leaves too. For this shaker I used the new Spring Flowers Clay Confetti. I love those little flowers in the confetti. 

To create the background I used both the Watercolor Rectangle Mask Stencil and the Line Bursts Stencil. First I stenciled with the Watercolor Rectangle Mask Stencil using a light yellow ink. Then I placed the  Line Bursts Stencil over the Watercolor Rectangle Mask Stencil and stenciled with a brighter yellow ink. 

The sentiment is from the new Easter Greetings Stamp Set and die cut with the coordinating dies. I added the fence at the bottom with the Picket Fence Die. 

I splatter a little gold paint no the background and add a few gold gems. 

Next up is a look at the new Bunny Holder Dies and the Easter Holder Additions Dies. 

First is put together the bunny, die cutting from white cardstock, added the sweet face, ears, and bunny tail. I added a little pink ink to the bunny cheeks. The Easter Holder Additions Dies gives you a number of options to create items for the bunny to hold. I created and filled the Easter basket and flowers with the die set. 

I die cut grass with the Nature's Essentials Dies. I used the Eyelet Rectangle Dies to die cut the card front. 

The sentiments are from the Upright Greetings Easter Stamp Set. 

Thanks for taking a look. I hope you have been inspired to start creating your Easter and Spring projects! You can find all the new products here.
