More is More

This week, Taylored Expressions is sneak peeking the June Release which happens this Thursday morning, June 4th.  I’m always happy when I get to play along!  Today, I’m excited to show off a new stamp set called Sip,Sip Hooray!  This adorable set lets you create cute carts of all kinds: lemonade, flowers, ice cream, candy,  and hot dogs and it includes some great sentiments in super cute fonts!  There is also an awesome coordinating die set, but I got my stamps before my dies and just couldn’t wait to play, so you’ll see my samples were created with the use of my favorite tool – my stamp-a-majig!  It’s a lot easier than you might think.  If you have not made friends with your stamp-a-majig yet, you are really missing out!

Above, you can see my entire little card set.  I created this as a special little hostess gift.  I started by stamping the various images on white cardstock.  Then I pulled out my TE Matched Kit – Rainbow Brights and chose a color for each card.  Then I matched up some Copic markers and got to coloring.

Here are shots of the individual cards.

Finishing touches include one rounded corner, a narrow black matting layer, and a few Doodlebug sequins. (The sequins I used are no longer in the store, but the Matched Kit has sequins to coordinate with it, so that’s even better!)

There was a perfect left over strip from cutting the patterned paper that I used on the inside of each card.

For the purple candy cart, I added an inside sentiment from In & Out Birthday.

For the lemonade cart, the inside sentiment is from In the Word.

And there you have it – a super fun and super simple card set.  I can’t wait to play some more with this set and try out the dies!  You’ll want to hop over to the TE Blog for the roll of all the girls playing in the hop today and also to have a chance to enter a drawing to win a TE prize!  Thanks so much for stopping by today!
