Taylored Expressions May Stamp of the Month Blog Hop


Hey everyone, and welcome to the May Taylored Expressions Stamp of the Month Blog Hop!  If you stumbled here, welcome.  Be sure you make your way all through the hop so that you don't miss an ounce of crafty inspiration.  Every month the TE Key Ingredients designers team up with the TE Baker's Dozen to bring you fresh and fun inspiration for the Stamp of the Month (SOTM), and this month's set is called Bloom & Grow.


This month's set definitely makes me feel springy and ready to enjoy the warmer temps, with those flowers and the butterfly.  I stamped my butterfly with some yellow ink, and then rocked his edges into some black ink.  I love the look that technique provides.  I used the matching die that Taylor has designed called Hello Bloom.  It's available to anyone and not just Kit Subscribers.  However, if you're not a subscriber, you may just want to consider it as there are some amazing benefits to being one.  There are 3 different options. . .one for every type of paper crafter :)

Stamps:  Bloom & Grow SOTM
Ink:  SU Crushed Curry, Memento Tuxedo Black
Paper:  May 2014 TE KI Kit
Accessories:  TE Hello Bloom die, sponge, Black Enamel dots, Circle Nesties, foam tape

Here's what the Key Ingredients Kit looks like: 

In addition to providing you with great products that match, Taylor has a Gallery set up so that you never run out of ideas for how to use your kit!
