Taylored Expressions November Release Preview – Monogrammed Notepads

Hi everyone! Welcome back to another day of November release previews with Taylored Expressions! All new products will be available for sale tomorrow, Thursday, November 3rd. 🙂

Today we’re sharing projects using TE’s new Initially monogram dies. Each initial die set includes one large uppercase initial measuring just over 3 1/2″ tall, a smaller uppercase initial measuring 1″ and one lowercase initial measuring 3/4″. (Height of lowercase initials varies within m, h, j, etc.)

I created several monogramed notepads using Initially M, A, K and L with new Garden Party background. (See info below on how you can receive the Garden Party background for FREE.)

I purchased four 4″ x 6″ mini notepads from Target for $1.99 each. (Beware of the “ruled” notation. The pads are not in fact ruled. They are plain paper.)

I stamped the Garden Party background in new Blue Corn ink, as well as Peapod, Plum Punch and Toffee onto Sugar Cube card stock. I cut the panels to 4″ x 5 1/4″, added a strip of Oreo card stock to the bottom and adhered to the paper pad. (I ♥ how these turned out!)

Inside each circle, I stamped “handmade for you” from new Noteworthy stamp set. To add a bit of dimension to the monomgram, I die-cut each letter four times, glued the layers together and adhered within the circle.
