Hi there! It's February 20th and that means it's time for the Taylored Expressions Key Ingredients Challenge! This month's Key Ingredients Kit is all about black and white with a POP of color!
Our theme for this month's challenge is to use pops of color in your creations. Create a set of cards (at least 3) to give as a gift, but here's the catch...the majority of your cards must be black and white. Choose a pop of color to use in each of your cards...perhaps the recipient's favorite color?
Taylored Expressions has been busy working on a new idea....Many Marvelous Monogram Download! Each letter will be available on a separate page and scaled to fit inside the punches many of us already own. No stamping...just print and punch! There is even a page of just borders, so you can use them with your own letter stamps or smaller images!
I am in love with these monogram letters! I went the Clean and Simple route with these monogram cards and I just love how elegant they look! I printed the "J" monogram on Choice Snow White dp and punched them out with a 1 3/4" circle punch. All of the patterned paper, ribbon and cardstock is from the kit! I love the beautiful patterns on the Making Memories DP! The recipient of this set of cards is someone I met at CHA who was SO SWEET! She is a friend of Taylor's and helped out in the booth. She loved all the cards that the Baker's Dozen created so I thought it would be fun to send her this set! I hope she likes them!

What a wonderful set of cards, Jackie :D Congrats on the DT post with TE too. Glad to hear someone else takes about two hours to make a card. I tinker forever with the little touches. Even hit my family up for what they like better "a" or "b" LOL!
