Merry Blooms Duo | Taylored Expressions

Happy Thursday, there is a new Inspired By…challenge! Every Thursday there will be a new inspiration photo and optional sketch! Today is National Older Stuff so there’s an extra challenge to use something from your stash that is at least one year old!

Here’s how I was inspired:

I was inspired by the:

• botanical theme
• color palette

This is my project for the challenge:

I used the Taylored Expressions – Merry Blooms Cardmaking Kit. I ordered it on July 21, 2021. I purchased other things too and this is the first time using the kit.

I’m featuring products by Taylored Expressions:

• Merry Blooms Stamp, Stencil & Clear Combo
• Joyful Season stamp set
• Joyful Season Dies

Some other things you can add:

• Perfect Poinsettia dies

Can you believe I used only one ink color? Concord & 9th – Parsley!

This is a bonus card because I wanted to try out a different color palette:

This card uses the exact same products as above but uses the following inks:

• Concord & 9th – Poppy – Merry Blooms Stamp
• Concord & 9th – Honeysuckle – Stenciled blooms, detail stamps + sentiment
• Concord & 9th – Cranberry – details and base panel

I’m so glad that I broke out this kit. I added 2 holiday cards to my 2023 stash! I can’t wait to play around with other color combos! Check out my pinterest board HERE.

I can’t wait to see how my teamies were inspired!
