Taylored Expressions Sneak Peek Day 3

Today the Baker's Dozen is sharing samples using the new set It's a Banner Day and the banner day 1 die. This is the first in a series of three stamp sets featuring banner stamps and sentiments with a coordinating banner die. This fun banner concept was brought to us by Iwona Palamountain and she'll be joining us for sneak peeks today.

All the new stamps and dies will be available at Taylored Expressions tomorrow, February 4th at 8am PST.

It's a Banner Day doesn't have any image stamps so you'll find that the Baker's Dozen has combined the versatile sentiments in the set with several stamp sets from previous releases. I decided to pair it with Hangin' Out and make a baby boy card for a friend. I used last week's Mojo Monday sketch, Mojo175, for the layout.

The baby onesie is paper pieced and the three soothers are coloured with copics. I cut everything out and popped the images for dimension, adding three stitched lines to 'hang' the soothers from. I stamped the banner outline with Memento Tuxedo Black then added the sentiment before cutting it out with the coordinating banner day 1 die. The patterned paper is from the Fine & Dandy True Blue paper pad.

Be sure to stop by the rest of the Baker's Dozen blogs to see more eye candy with It's a Banner Day and the banner day 1 die.
Tomorrow is release day and I'll see you right back here for a fun project using Cozy Cottages.
Thanks for stopping by!
Karen
