Taylored Expressions Release Day with Cuppie Love!

Hi everyone!! Happy Thursday and Happy Release Day at Taylored Expressions!! Today is the day you can get your hands on all the new sets we have been showing you, and of course, the FAB Valentine's Day Key Ingredients and Add On!

Today the Baker's Dozen get to share peeks of THE most adorable Cuppie set, Cuppie Love Scenes, which was concepted by our very own Donna Baker!!! I ADORE this set and I know you will too!! Ahhh...that Cuppie gets me every time!!! (grin!)

Both of my cards today were made using the Valentine's Day Key Ingredients, which is my favorite KI to date (yes...I believe you have heard me say that before!). Can you see a little something special on my first card? CHECK OUT this AWESOME button!! Another jaw-dropping creation from my pal Jamie Pyles!!! These are part of the amazing Valentine's Day Add On that is available today at Taylored Expressions!!!

Totally AMAZING right? I cannot even stand how fab these buttons are and they match the Be Loved paper in the Valentine's Day Key Ingredients!!! Sigh...love these!!!

OK...back to my card (grin!). I stamped these hot air ballooning Cuppies in Memento Tuxedo Black onto Choice Buttercream Cardstock and colored them with Copic Markers. I cut them out and framed them with Rectangle and Scalloped Rectangle Nestabilities, and all my layers were sewn with my sewing machine. I added some Liquid Applique to the clouds...I love the look of this and always forget to use it!

I opted to NOT put a sentiment on my card, but rather let the "Love" on the button say it all!!

For my second card, I did a bit of paper piecing!

I stamped this darling Cuppie scene in Memento Tuxedo Black onto Choice Buttercream Cardstock and colored them with Copic Markers. I used some of the yummy Be Loved paper to paper piece some wallpaper behind the Cuppie couple, and I drew in the wood floor with my Copic Multiliner.

The entire image was colored with Copic Markers and I used my Apron Lace Punch to add a fun border. The ribbons are also from the Valentine's Day Key Ingredients and the heart pin is from the Valentine's Day Add On!

I had a blast making all of the cards for this release!! All the new sets and KI are available right now at Taylored Expressions so head on over and shop!!!

Thanks SO much for stopping by! Make sure you head on over to the rest of the Baker's Dozen Blogs to see what deliciousness they have created with Cuppie Love Scenes!! Make sure you give a special WOOT WOOT to Donna for coming up with the concept for this delightful set!
