Taylored Expressions Release Day: Sweet Bears and Spooktacular Sentiments

It's release day the August release from Taylored Expressions!  I'm not going to chat much today because it's time to shop but I do have a few more peeks to show you.  Be sure to check out each of the create team members' blogs for all of the sneak peeks - starting with the Taylored Expressions blog.

The new Simply Smitten set has the most charming bear ever along with with a variety of products to set the scene for him.  I've used the stamps with an autumn focus but there are other sentiments and stamps that can work for all seasons!

I used Blender Brushes to create his background.  I use Post-It tape where I want the split and brush on blue above it.  Then I move the tape up and brush the green below.  It's so subtle for clean and simple cards but it gives him a place to stand.

Here's a supply list for this card.  Keep reading because I have one more set of sentiment strips to show you!!

As much as we have all loved the sentiment strips - there are even more.  Earlier this week, I showed you Simple Strips - Friendship and Mini Strips - Harvest.  We also have Mini Strips - Halloween!!

Look at all the extra sentiments I have for more cards!!  I love that I only have to stamp, heat emboss and cut a few times and I have all the sentiments I need!

I paired my sentiments with the previously released ghosts from Be Somebody Stamp & Die Combo for this chat between the two little ghosts.  I made the background just a bit "spookier" by brushing the edges and adding some splatters of Oreo Liquid Watercolor.
