Make a Wish


How about another Taylored Expressions card today? This is another image from the Make a Wish set. Make a Wish is the latest addition to Taylored Expressions' Giving Tree series! If you're not familiar with the Giving Tree, each quarter TE introduces a new stamp set to support a different charity. When you purchase the Make a Wish stamp set during the months of September, October, and November, TE will donate $7.00 to a national children's charity. You can get all the details here at Taylor's blog.

I'm using Taylor's Sketch #129 but I flipped it. Patterned paper is from Cosmo Cricket's Togetherness 6 x 6 pad and I'm using Riding Hood Red card stock. I stamped the image on Very Vanilla card stock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored it with Copic markers and added some Sakura glitter pen to the star. I cut the felt balloons using Taylor's balloon dies--so cute!! Then I added some twine strings tied together with a red Pearl cotton bow. Finally, I added a twill bow and some flat backed pearls.

Ok, that's it for today. Thanks so much for stopping by!

  4. I can't figure out how you think up all these great ideas. The balloons on the side made from felt are perfect for this card. It's the first time I've seen the pure poppy felt used too! Such a cute card Barb.
