It’s release day and all of the new products are now available at Taylored Expressions in the Fresh Out of the Oven Department and Current Specials.
I have some fun projects to share with you today so let’s get started!
My first card uses Happy Trails and was concepted by the very creative Jami Sibley, and illustrated by Doug Applegate of Apple Doodle Ink. It’s such an adorable set and I love all the mix and match elements. Some of the other DT used this set for some amazing scrapbook layouts so be sure to stop by their blogs and take a look.
My next project uses Doodle Notes, concepted by Jen Shults and illustrated by Nancy McKinney. It’s a wonderful way to create little notes of encouragement and works perfectly with the all the new stamps and dies being released today!
Aren’t these mini notes adorable? The Little Bitty Bags Grid/Notepaper fit the mini size perfectly. They are perfect for your child’s backpack, lunch box, and jeans pocket.
I also made a fun treat bag for my little bookworms. This time I used Bigger Bitty Bags…don’t you love the bold chevron pattern?
I filled the bag with gummy worms for them to eat. Pretty fitting for bookworms who like to snack while reading! I made the topper with the Chevron Border die to match the Bigger Bitty bag and Limeade Doodle Twine ties it all neatly together.
All images were stamped on Choice Snow White and colored with Copics.
Be sure to see what the rest of the DT has in store for Release Day!

These are super adorable. I was on TE yesterday trying to figure out what I want to buy. So far I really like the Halloween ones like Fangtastic and Toil and Trouble. Debating on waiting to see if TE comes out with new Halloween before I dive in, I’m so glad that you’re on their DT. I get to see all the amazing new releases and your art. Have a great day!
