Release Day @ Taylored Expressions!

**Please scroll down for my Bellarific Friday Post....Thanks!! **

Hi everyone! Happy Friday and Happy Release Day @ Taylored Expressions! Today is the day that both of the new sets, Take Note and Tweet Hearts, as well as all the DIVINE Taylored Dies are available!!

Before you run to Taylored Expressions to load up on all the goodies, I do have one more project to share with you using my new favorite Taylored Expressions set, Take Note!!

I decided to alter another book (I think I may be a *tad* obsessed with these now), this time creating a Sketch Book to keep handy on my stamp desk! It was WAY too much fun to make too!

I started with the July Key Ingredients for my cardstock, patterned paper (Paisley Parade from KI Memories) and ribbon. You can't go wrong with a Key Ingredients...hardly any thinking involved!! You can get all the deets on a Key Ingredients Subscription right HERE.

I started by stamping the large frame from Take Note two times...once in Memento Rich Cocoa onto a piece of cork, and once in Memento Rich Cocoa onto a piece of patterned paper. I then cut out the cork panel with the Take Note Frame 3 Taylored Die, and then cut and layered the other pieces on top. On the rectangle cut from patterned paper, I stamped "Sketch Book", from Take Note in Memento Rich Cocoa again.

Before adhering my frame die to my book, I cut another Take Note Frame 3 Taylored Die out of just Choice Snow White Cardstock and layered it the opposite way behind my cork frame. I LOVE the layered look you can get with just one die! To adorn my focal panel, I stamped a few of the flowers from the previously released Fresh Flowers set. I colored them with Copic Markers, cut them out and attached them to opposite corners. The main layers were sewn on my sewing machine and I added White Brads in the corners.

Make sure to check out what the rest of the Baker's Dozen have created today using Take Note, Tweet Hearts, and of course, all the new Taylored Dies!!
