Taylored Expressions September Blast From the Past Blog Hop!

Hi there! Welcome to the Taylored Expressions September Blast from the Past Blog Hop! Each month, Taylored Expressions has a blog hop for it's customers to join in on the fun...you can find all the details HERE! This month's theme is a dual theme...Birthday or Birth Day! This is going to be one fun hop!

So...Let me first say Congratulations to Taylor and her husband on the birth of their new baby girl! How exciting!

I hope you came from Sankari's Blog, and if so, you are on the right track! There's a list at the bottom of this post if you need to get back on track too!

Here's my card using Sankari's fun sketch...


When I think of birthdays, I think Cupcakes! So, here's one of my all-time faves from TE...For the Love of Cupcakes! Let's start with these fun papers from Three Bugs in a Rug...I just love the colors...perfect for my card! The panel in the center is from the same collection and I paper-pieced the cake plate, cupcake and candle and put them slightly off center so the words would show. I added a little banner colored with Copics to match my background paper, my sentiment cut out with my Spellbinders label dies, a few sparkly gems and a sweet, polka-dotted bow!

You're next stop on the hop is Cassie's Blog! Have a great time hopping along today!
