Happy Thursday everyone! It’s Taylored Expressions release day, and all the products the creative team has featured this week is now available! You can stop by the blog for one more round of inspiration today before heading over to the shop.

My cards today are dedicated to the Red, White, and Blue. 4th of July is right around the corner, and there are some great new products to make STAND OUT Independence Day cards. I used the new Light Up The Night stencil to add Deco Foil transfer Gel onto Sugar Cube card stock. Once dry, I cut a piece of red foil to put on top of the panel, then ran the panel through my laminator. The foiled fireworks have such a bright shine to them.  I picked a sentiment from the new Home Of The Brave stamp set to stamp and white heat embossed onto Blue Corn card stock. I added the panel to a Toffee card base for a neutral background.

I used the Home Of The Brave stamp set again for this card. This stamp set is one of my favorites from the release. I come from a military family, my dad was in the Army, and my grandfather was a 2-Star General in the Air Force. I was also a military spouse for many years, and very much part of the military community. The sentiments in this stamp set mean a lot to me.  I picked this sentiment in tribute to the time my loved ones have spent overseas protecting our freedom. I kept the card clean and simple, stamping the USA onto Toffee card stock with Toffee ink, and using a few dies from the Banner Year- 4th Of July combo set to die-cut the Red, White, and Blue. I will be sending this card to my dad in a couple weeks to thank him for his service.

Now it’s your turn to create! Have fun checking out all the new products in TE Shop. Thanks for stopping by!
