today is sneak peek day 2 of our taylored expressions november release which will be available for purchase on thursday, november 5th at 7am pst. also, don't forget that today you have another chance to win a release week giveaway over on the te blog.
my first project for today is a tag i created for a wrapped christmas gift. the base of the tag was die cut with the tag die from the build a tag 2 die set. the red & white stripes were die cut with the new basket weave cutting plate & then cut into a square with a die from the build a tag 4 set. see the ombre effect i created with the red stripes? i used 3 different te premium cardstock colors - watermelon, cherry pop & red pepper.
the teal square was die cut with a die from the build a tag 2 set & then embossed with the new on the spot embossing folder. to create the tiny little scallops i used a die from the new mini color block cutting plate & then pieced together the die cut little bits - christmas tree.
on the backside of the tag i stamped a sentiment from the new p.s. your welcome stamp set - this unique stamp set features 6 sentiments sized to fit on gift tags created for handmade gifts. then i added a die cut snowflake charm that was cut with a die from the new holiday charms die set.
my next project is a card i created with one of the new 3x4 watercolor panels - this panel comes from the keep in touch set. i used a tiny bit of blue color burst to create the background, then colored the flowers with inktense pencils & a couple of distress markers.
to finish off the scene i die cut a bit of grass with the grass border die & added the little bits - bumble bee die cut. i matted the watercolor panel onto a piece of poppy seed cardstock that was embossed with the new on the spot embossing folder.

Darling little tag. Love that sentiment on it. LOL. I am just loving those watercolor panels. Your little card is so cute. That grass is just the perfect piece to tie it all together. Love it. Thanks for sharing.
