I am back with another release from Taylored Expressions....it's for New Year! Not sure, if it's going to be a 'happy' one but I sure am looking forward to 2021... not that things are going to get back to normal once the clock strikes 12! Things were just emotionally exhausting this year! Luckily, I had the crafting community and this hobby to keep me going! I started sharing my cards on IG in late Jan this year so I am definitely looking forward to my one year craft-versary! 

For my first card, I used Cookie Monster, Granny Smith, Pineapple, Candy Corn and Watermelon to ink blend the first 2 stencils using the Right Angle stencil set. I placed this at angle so that I have some space to stamp a sentiment later on. I then placed a Stripe stencil (I used the October freebie but the Mini Slimline Candy Cane stencil is a great alternative!) on top of the third stencil and gently stenciled using Sea Salt. I then went back to the first stencil and using the Mini Slim Stencil - on the Dot to stencil using complementary colors. I then stamped a sentiment from Counting Candles - add on and placed the entire panel on some Sea Salt cardstock :) 

My next card screams PARTY! (a socially distanced one of course!) For this card, I lightly ink blended the top half of the card using the Party Popper stencil and Watermelon, Candy Corn, Pineapple, Granny Smith and Cookie Monster inks. I stamped the 'Happy' sentiment using Sea Salt and colored it in using Copic markers. I added a shadow using some gold cardstock! I then die cut various party streamers from Skinny Mini Party Borders and Skinny Mini Fiesta Borders using Sugar Cube cardstock and then colored them using Copic markers. I finished it off by adding a 'New Year' sentiment using the On-Repeat stamp and die set.

Supply List:

I hope you like these colorful card! Be sure to check out what the rest of the team has in store :)

Adios,
