Hello crafty friends! It's WHAT???? December!? And that means it's time for another fun release from Taylored Expressions! Taylor is doing her super cool Petite-a-Palooza again this year. What is that? It's an extravaganza of mini stamp sets with matching dies! There is so much to choose from, and something for everyone. Be sure to check out all the designers' blogs for inspiration all week. The new stamps and dies are available for purchase on Thursday morning.
Today I have two cards to share. First up is a friendship card made with a new coffee set called "Joe to Go." I LOVE the little coffee cup die cut! Perfection, really. I used the Basic Grey Hipster paper pack for a retro look.
I told you!! How cute is that coffe cup? And the matching coffee cozy? Over the top! These petite sets make is easy to creat fast and simple cards. The matching dies from Taylor are now open in the center so they are easy to line up too. See how the edges are so even? Perfect for this OCD stamper girl.
A fun layout and some foam tape, and you're good to go. Good Coffee is ALWAYS a good thing, especially with friends!
Now, on the total opposite side of the color spectrum, I have a bright and cheery card! When I first saw this stamp set (called Oh Happy Day) I had a Mary Engelbreit moment! So that's what I did, made a card using black and red and yellow, just like one of my craft idols. SO fun to color these flowers.
The picket fence border die is just the right touch for these whimsical images.
Thank you so much for popping in today! Hop around to everyone's blogs to see all the other new sets! Here's the list for you!

Oh, how fun these are! Both so pretty and fun! Love what you did with the coffee cups, and loving the kraft mixed into that one. And Mary Engelbreit.....yes! That's exactly what that makes me think of! Awesome!
