TESC 100!!! Come Celebrate With Us!
February 12th, 2010
Today we’re celebrating the 100th Sketch in the Taylored Expressions Sketch Challenge (formerly also known as the Taylored Expressions Cupcake Challenge) and we really hope you’ll play along with us! Not only is it a blast to create using Taylor’s sketches, but today there are prizes involved as well. One lucky winner will get a $25 Gift Certificate to the TE Store just for displaying our Celebration graphic on your blog to help us spread the word and invite more people to the party. AND the 5 Top Crops chosen by the Sketch Crew will also each receive a $25 GC!!! How cool is that? You’ll need to hop over to Taylor’s blog to get the sketch and the graphic and all the deets. PLUS Taylor has an incredible gift for EVERYONE on her blog today!
But before you go, I have a sample for today’s fun sketch that I’m dying to share! For this special celebration I wanted to use my all-time favorite TE sets Branching Out and Branching Coordinates. To create a really bright and happy card I decided to use one of my favorite Key Ingredients kits – Berries and Cherries KI. All the cardstock, patterned paper, ribbon, and strawberry brad are from the KI. I added some KaiserCraft red pearls and rhinestone flowers in light pink and hot pink, along with some Fruit Punch stickles. Some faux stitching finished off this card. (I really really need to make time to learn to use my new Janome Sew Mini – I so wanted to have real stitching on this card!)
This card is so much more sparkly IRL than the photo shows. I had so much fun creating this card! Now let’s check out what the rest of the Sketch Crew has come up with:
I hope you have a great weekend and make some time to stamp! I’m looking forward to teaching class tonight and going out to dinner with friends tomorrow night. 🙂 Thanks for stopping by!

Wow Jami! I love this card. The colors and sparkle really pop! I thought it was funny too that we both had the same idea to use the little owl on the swing. I adore your little pink owl. Too cute!
