Center of Attention Product Spotlight - TE Downloads!!


Hi everyone!! Happy Wednesday!

I am SUPER excited to be able to share with you an AWESOME Taylored Expressions Product Spotlight today, Taylored Expressions Downloads!!

Did you know that there is an entire catagory of Taylored Expressions Downloads available in the Taylored Expressions Store? Today, I am sharing the Birthday Calendar with you!!!

I decided to use the Birthday Calendar Download a create a Birthday Box!!! I started by printing the Birthday Calendar Download onto Choice Buttercream Cardstock and then simply cut the paper in half, gave it a little trim and Viola, Birthday Calendar inserts that are the perfect size to either bind yourself, or do as I did, put them in a TE Mini Binder Box!!!

For my project, all the cardstock, patterned paper and embellishments are from the September 20 Key Ingredients, which are still available in the Taylored Expressions Store!


I used Beary Special to decorate the front of my Birthday Box!! The sentiment, "Birthday Blessings", is a mix of two different sets, the "Birthday" is from Fresh Flowers and "Blessings" is from Celebrate Life, both from Taylored Expressions!!

You can see how PERFECTLY the Birthday Calendar Download fits into the TE Mini Binder Box!! I colored the box at the top of each month with Copic Markers, and added images from Beary Special Accessories to the bottom of each month page!

For the inside front cover of my box, I created a little pocket for stamps and made a ribbon loop to hold a pen!!


These Birthday Calendar Downloads are SO easy to use!! All I had to do was open the link and print! Easy peasy lemon squeezy! LOVE that!!! It will make mass producing this Birthday Box for gifts SUPER easy!!

On the back of each month page, I created a pocket using cardstock and patterned paper from the September 20 Key Ingredients so that you can keep the cards you need for each month nice and handy!! I LOVE organization (grin!!)

There are SO many Taylored Expressions Downloads available, and as they are files sent to your computer...no shipping and instant gratification (LOVE that!!!)! There are recipe cards, 6X6 calendars and mini calendars available!!!
