Hi friends! Welcome back to Day Two of our Release Week party for Taylored Expressions! More fun and sneak peeks today and tomorrow, followed by Release Day on Thursday! YEAH! Thanks for joining me here to see what I have for you!
I'm very excited to share today's card - this was SOOO fun to make. This new stamp set is called Sunshiny Day and all the stamps in my card are from that set! I also used some of my favorite TE scene borders - the grass and the fence. (Are you humming the Brady Bunch Sunshine Day song yet???)
I wasn't sure how the final card was going to come together, so first I stamped and cut out all my pieces. Then I colored them in. Then I played with the pieces like Colorforms! Haha. I rearranged everything and finally came up with this layout:
My trees and almost everything else are popped up with foam tape squares. And, yes, I cut everything out by hand!
In order to give some 'shape' to my trees I swept the brush tip of my Copic Marker around the rounded parts of the outline. Can you see that? For the clouds I put just a bit of B21 on them and then swirled the color around with my Blender marker (0).
Here are my pieces while I was still deciding on my layout...

I absolutely love this set and I really wanted to get it but somehow even though I spent a bunch today it wasn't in the order... so much to love.
Anyway the scene you created is so bright and happy. I wish I were there right now!!
