Hey folks!
Isn’t time just flying by? Its only 2 episodes to the FINALE now! And this episode is one of them!! But you’ll LOVE my guest today!
We used Taylored Expressions stamp set and dies ofcourse! The one we used is really special because its Taylor’s favorite set and hydrangeas were her wedding bouquet!
The set is called Forever in Bloom and the co-ordinating dies are called Hydrangea Blooms.
Here is what we created! My card on the left and Taylor’s on the right.
Today Taylor is sponsoring an awesome giveaway! One lucky winner gets a $25 gift certificate to the TE store!!
To win, just leave a comment here answering Taylor’s question and I’ll pick a lucky winner for the giveaway! Here is the question for you!
What do you think is missing from your stamp collection?
Thanks for watching the episode folks! I’ll be back with more next week!

Such a fun video…beautiful cards. I loved the use of vellum for the vase on Taylor’s card. I feel out of my stash I am missing sentiments that can be carried from the front to the inside of the card and also more masculine images.

Wow, these hydrangea stamps and dies are wonderful! Love how you can get such a variety of looks from the same stamp set! As to what I am missing in my stamp collection, that would be humorous sayings. I have quite a few of the usual, but most of my family and friends like funny cards and I am sorely in need of those!

I am missing background stamps. I want to buy only clear stamps anymore. Background stamps are never clear. Consequently, I have none! why can’t they be clear?

Although I cannot purchase anything right now, when I am able, I am sure there are many things that My Favorite Things and/or Amy Rysavy(you need to interview her!!) or Jennifer Mcguire(Also would be a great interview!!) have demoed. I would like some more of the background type stamps. Thanks for these interviews Chaitali.

It was very nice to meet Taylor and hear how she started paper crafting. I’ve recently purchased a lot of clear stamps so I’m having a hard time coming up with an answer but I think I’m lacking in Christmas greetings and stamps. There are some beautiful ones I’ve seen lately.

Would love to see more realistic open style stamps suitable for watercoloring or Copic coloring – not so whimsical or cartoonish. Thanks for the interview, they are always interesting and informative!

Nice to know about Taylor. Taylored Expressions is new to me, and thank you Chaitali for introducing me to an awesome company and crafter.
Beautiful cards by both of you!
I don’t have a lot of stamps, so I miss(rather want) a lot of standard ones.
But the one I want most is a good outlined floral image suitable for coloring.

Taylor’s effervescent personality is infectious; a smile on my face from beginning to end! She’s funny, creative, and so ‘real’…and I love hearing that she loves cupcakes, donuts and candy! Sweet! You, as always, Chaitali, are a top-notch hostess! The photo of Taylor with the mustache..brilliant! My collection is missing a lot, even though I have a lot! I’d like background stamps, as well as mat dies that cut in more increments than those I have now…those ‘inbetween’ sizes. Thank you both for a most delightful, engaging interview!

Thanks so much, Chaitali, for a terrific interview with Taylor. Hers is the very first on line store I purchased stamp sets from & I’m still using them. Both of your cards are lovely too.

I have so many stamp sets, I’m not really sure there’s much that IS missing. lol Probably more people stamps. I’m nervous about coloring skin, so I tend to stay away from people. Also extended sentiments — longer quotes that can be used as the focal points.
