Happy Summer and Summer Lovin'

Hello friends!!  This is actually my last post with the Key Ingredients and Stamp of the month kits from Taylored Expressions.  I have loved each and every one of the kits that Taylor has put out.  The stamp of the month for July is called Summer Lovin'.  It is prefect for all of your summer themed cards like these two below....

I paired this card with the July Key Ingredients kit, which includes the 6x6 Echo Park Summer Bliss paper pad, a wonderful assortment of cardstock, as well as the super fun wood embellishments.  I also use the coordinating die kit also called Summer Lovin' to cut out each of the flip flops.  I finished off my card with a bit of yellow stitching with my sewing machine.  Take a closer look at my card....

This next card is done with the same July Key Ingredients and Stamp of the Month kits in a bit of a different way.....

I used the turquoise paper in the Summer Bliss 6x6 from Echo Park and tore the edge a bit to mimic waves in my water.  I also used the cloud dies from Enjoy the Ride on this card.  Here is a closer look....

To finish off my card, I added some stitching with my sewing machine and a little pen stitching around the sun circle.

I am so glad that I have had the opportunity to design with the wonderful products in the Key Ingredients and Stamp of the Month kits every month for the last year and a half with Taylored Expressions.  I can't wait to see what wonderful things come from them in the month's to come.

Hugs,
Amy
