VIDEO | Taylored Expressions | Snarky Mini Slim Cards feat. Cap It Off Alpha
I'm excited to be sharing a new video for Taylored Expressions! Today is the new Mini Slim Essentials Release and I have a trio of cards featuring the new and totally awesome Cap It Off Alpha dies.
In the background, I used the Masking Stencils - Stars with Blender Brushes and Watermelon, Sweet Potato Pie and Lemon Meringue inks.
Monday's snarky strip cracks me up and is probably my favourite of all the Simple Strips - Snarky. I'd love to hear what combinations you'd use for a card!
I hope you enjoyed watching today's snarky video. Please visit the shop links below to shop the new Mini Slim Essentials Release and more!
Thanks so much for watching!

Studio Katia | Valentine Hugs
I repeated the sentiment, leaving a space to pop up the tiny hearts from the Potted Plants stamp set. Then I added an assortment of Seafoam Pearls with liquid glue and an embellishment wand.

Catherine Pooler Designs | I Love You Soy Bundle
I used the Cummerbund and white striped paper to create my shaker card. Then I stamped and die cut a ton of images from Hey There Dumpling in more colour combinations than you can imagine. I even masked off the inside of the soy bottle to get pure colours of Catching Rays and Cummerbund inks.
I added the new Romance Sequin Mix before attaching the patterned paper panel to the card base. Then I assembled all of the images and attached them to the front of the card using a combination of liquid glue, glue dots and foam tape. For example, the fortune cookies are flat, except for the fortunes. It adds an extra element of interest to the card.

VIDEO | Taylored Expressions | Happy Hex Monogram Card Kit
Taylored Expressions continues to knock it out of the park with their kits and the Happy Hex Monogram Card Kit is no exception! This kit was made to create a set of cards to give away as a gift but you can definitely - and you'll likely want to - keep it for yourself and make fun, beautiful cards for yourself using the ingredients in this kit.
You get six mini slimline card bases in sugar cube cardstock and they are top-folding which is ultra unique since you can't cut your own card bases in this manner unless you have legal-sized cardstock. You also get a rainbow assortment of mini slimline envelopes, which I absolutely love! This shape is so unique and elegant.
I started by stamping the Happy Hex Mini Slim Background with watermark ink and heat embossing it with diamond embossing powder. This background can be very bold or subtle, depending on what colour(s) you choose to stamp it with. Since mine is subtle to highlight the rainbow stencilling, I wanted to make it sparkly!
I used the Happy Hex Mini Slim Stencil, blender brushes and the following ink colours to stencil the ombre rainbow hexagons down the length of the slimline cards - Watermelon, Sweet Potato Pie, Lemon Meringue, Lime Zest, Sprinkles and Jelly Donut.
After the stencilling was completed, I used the Happy Hex Add-Ons Clear Stamp Set to stamp the patterns on one hexagon in each row, using the coordinating ink colour. I used the large hexagon from that stamp set to stamp the double outline for the sentiment using Oreo Ink. I chose three of the six sentiments in that stamp set, and stamped two of each in the centre of the hexagon.
I stamped the same three sentiments on the six envelope seals but since the seals are a slippery material, I used StazOn solvent ink.
To finish the gift set, I die cut the Belly Band Die from lemon meringue cardstock and adhered the two halves together with scor-tape. I stamped and heat embossed a monogram for the belly band using the Typewriter Alpha Clear Stamp Set on lime zest cardstock and trimmed it out with scissors, attaching it to the front of the belly band.
Thanks so much for watching!
