Taylored Expressions Blast from the Past Blog Hop!

Today I am participating in Taylored Expressions first CUSTOMER blog hop! Our theme is Blast from the Past. We had to use a Taylored Expressions stamp set from 2008 or 2009. The stamp sets I chose to work with are Branching Out & Braching Out Coordinates. These are really cute sets and support a worthy cause.







Supplies:
Pink Armadillo Glitter Paper Stack by the Paper Studio
Braching Out & Branching Out Coordinates by Taylored Expressions
Distress Inks by Tim Holtz: Brushed Corduroy & Broken China
Diamond Stickles
Bo Bunny Flower
Copic Markers: E31 Brick Beige, E25 Caribe Cocoa, YR65 Atoll
Pop Dots
Kraft Cardstock Base from Hobby Lobby

Here is the sketch we were given to work with if we chose to do so, and I thought it was too cute and the images I was choosing to work with fit perfectly with a circle as a focal point.




If you are a regular visitor to my blog, try and visit the others on the list below. I am number 50, and the hop started with Taylor herself. =0) For those of you hopping along remember to leave everyone a little love! Have & great day and CREATE SOMETHING!!!
