So are you ready for day to of sneak peeks with Taylored Expressions?!? Yesterday the Baker's Dozen took you to the beach, well today we're going to the chapel with Moka Charlotte, Moka Jack, You're Engaged à la carte, and Sweet Bliss.

The Moka collection, illustrated by Nancy McKinney, continues to grow with Charlotte and Jack. They make the sweetest couple!! Each set comes in deeply etched rubber on EZ Mount, on a sturdy 3" x 5.5" full colour panel, all trimmed and ready to use with an acrylic block.

I stamped Charlotte with Memento Tuxedo Black onto choice snow white and coloured her with copics. She was pretty quick to colour since I left the dress and veil white, although I did go over the veil with my clear Spica glitter pen, but it doesn't really show in the photo. I used my hearts impression plate on the pink oval to add a little texture and the patterned papers are from the Girls Paperie Vintage Whimsy collection. The card layout is CPS219.

I didn't want to take the focus off Charlotte on the front of the card, so I decorated the inside and added the sentiment there.

This next card uses the newest Cuppie stamp set, Sweet Bliss, illustrated by Jessie Olson. Did you ever imagine Cuppie would get married?!? Well this set is perfect for wedding or engagement cards, or even anniversary celebrations.

I couldn't stop singing "Going to the Chapel and we're Gonna get Married" when I looked at this set so I just had to use the chapel. It's stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black onto Choice Snow white and coloured with copics. I cut it out with rectangle Nestabilities and added a little grass near the edges with my copic multiliner.

The patterned paper is from the My Mind's Eye Lime Twist Happy Go Lucky collection and I paired it with rich razzleberry and sage shadow. I added a sweet felt cloud, cut out with my cloud duo die, and a black Twinkle for the door handle.

Be sure to hop around and check out all the Baker's Dozen creations.


See you here tomorrow for day three of sneak peeks!
Thanks for stopping by!

Your little bride looks so pretty in front of that embossed heart background, and I like the style of the bow you created in that card too. I like the colors you selected for your chapel card as well.
