Taylored Expressions Sneak Peek Day 2-Sweet Indulgence

Today the Baker's Dozen is sharing projects created with Sweet Indulgence, the adorable new Cuppie set that will be available at Taylored Expressions on Thursday, November 5th from 8am PST. Think of girly things you like to indulge in and that's what Cuppie's up to this month! I used the new Spa Key Ingredients on my project...love these cheery colours and patterns!
As soon as I saw this set and the sentiment 'time for the bubbly' I knew exactly what I wanted to do. Of course I paired the sentiment with Cuppie in the tub but then I took my bubbles in a completely different direction! I'm calling this a "Mom's Time Out" kit. I'm pretty sure that all moms would love a relaxing, candlelight bubble bath while sipping champagne and nibbling on chocolate at the end of a long day. :)

I started by decorating a mini champagne bottle with cardstock and ribbon from the Spa Key Ingredients. Next I wrapped some delish Ghirardelli chocolates with patterned paper and added three flowers from the Spa Key Ingredients. I added a Zva crystal to the center of each flower for a little bling.
Then I paired two images from Sweet Indulgence for the decoration on the bottle neck. The images are stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black then coloured with copics. I added a little clear Glaze pen to the compact to look like a mirror.
For the card, I started with this week's Mojo sketch, MOJO111.
The image is coloured with copics and I added Stardust Stickles to the bubbles. I inked just the words from the sentiment and created a banner. Do you see that fun lipstick brad? Isn't it adorable??? It's included in the Spa Key Ingredients along with some hair dryers.
I'm ready to see what fabulous creations the rest of the Baker's Dozen came up with using Sweet Indulgence. Come hop with me!

I'll have another new set to show you tomorrow, on release day, so be sure to pop back then.

Thanks for stopping by!
Karen
