It's Release Day @ Taylored Expressions!!!

Hi everyone!!! Happy Friday! I am SO excited today! It's release day at Taylored Expressions so you can finally get your hands on all the new sets being released!! Not only that, today the Baker's Dozen get to share with you samples of all of the three new sets along with coordinating brand new CARD KITS!!! I used the Girl Friday Taylored Card Kit for my card and you can find it here. They even have their own matching Copic Kits!!!

Today I get to share my personal favorite new set of the entire release, Crafty Cuppie AND it's coordinating set, Crafty Expressions!! ALL of my creations today are made with the supplies in the Crafty Cuppie Card Kit!!! These are all available right now...so RUN (giggle!) over to Taylored Expressions and get yours now! We ALL need a stamping Cuppie right???

Now, I am a HUGE Cuppie fan...Cuppie just makes me happy, so I had an absolute BLAST makig this set!! I have created a Perfect Package with a set of ten matching cards (two each of five designs) using these two new sets and Card Kit!!!

You can see that I have used FIVE different Crafty Cuppies on my set of cards today!! Crafty Cuppie and the coordinating Crafty Expressions ecompass TONS of Cuppie images and TONS of sentiments for every type of crafter! I have cards here that I can send to my friends and family that stamp, sew, knit, paint and craft!! Get ready to see this set alot...I am having a hard time putting it down!

Now...let me tell you about the Card Kit!!! ALL of these cards were made with these two new sets and the coordinating Card Kit! The only "extras" I used were my Copic Markers and Spellbinders Nestabilities, which are all available at Taylored Expressions!!

Each card kit comes CHOCK full of the following:

15 sheets of patterned paper (cut to 4" x 5 1/4"...3 sheets each of 5 patterns)
10 Choice cardstock card bases
10 envelopes
20 sheets of 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" Prism cardstock (4 sheets each of 5 colors)
1 package of Kaisercraft Pearls
8 sheets of Choice Cardstock (cut to 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"...for images)
5 yards of ribbon (2.5 yards each of 2 different styles)
1 Perfect Package Card Box


The patterned paper that comes with the kit that I used is Girl Friday from Cosmo Cricket (LOVE!) and I LOVE how it works perfectly with these new sets!!!

ALL of my images were colored with Copic Markers, and on some of the details (the glitter jars and the punch image) I added some sparkle with a Clear Spica Glitter Pen.

After cutting out all the images with assorted Nestabilities, I sponged ALL of them with Memento Canteloupe Ink to give them a bit of definition. I LOVE to do this and can't seem to stop lately!

Come blog hoppin' with me to see what the Baker's Dozen girls have cooked up with Crafty Cuppie and Crafty Expressions today.
