Taylored Expressions May Sneak Peeks: Rocket's Red Glare & Patriotic Prose

Hello! Welcome to the first day of Taylored Expressions May Sneak Peeks! The Baker's Dozen is kicking off 4 days of projects (3 days of peeks and release day). We are releasing 14 new stamp sets, 10 dies and 3 cutting plates! All products will be released on Thursday, May 8, @ 7 AM PST.

Today we are featuring several new patriotic stamps and dies. My first card uses Rocket's Red Glare and the coordinating dies, Firecrackers. I went clean and simple with this one.


Here's a detail shot:


For my next project, I wanted to use one of the new Patriotic Prose A la Carte stamps. Since I couldn't decide which one to use (I love them all!), I made 3 separate cards. The first one uses Patriotic Prose - Proud.


I added some color with my Copic markers and also added a star sprinkle in place of one of the stamped stars. Here's a detail shot:


My next card uses Patriotic Prose - USA. I used a similar layout to the first card, also adding a trio of star sprinkles above "USA". The star at the top of the oval uses the new Star Stacklets.

My final card features Patriotic Prose - Brave. Once again I added a couple of star sprinkles and two die cut stars from Star Stacklets.
