Remembering that childhood lesson of how good it felt to make handmade cards for others, and wanting to take the guesswork out of paper crafting so anyone could enjoy the hobby, Taylor decided to launch Taylored Expressions in 2008. Her first line of products was a series of cupcake-themed rubber stamps (because everyone loves a good cupcake!), and with the help of Jon, her mom and some dear friends, Taylor’s business quickly expanded to include dies, stencils, cardstock, crafting supplies and more.

Today, 13 years later, Taylored Expressions has grown into a company known throughout the paper crafting industry for its high quality, American-made products, its trendy and timeless collections, its adorable characters and its sense of community. Thousands of stamps and dies into it, Taylor has maintained her desire to provide meaningful ways for people to live their lives creatively, and has added a variety of social media channels to her blog in order to ensure she can meet crafters where they are. TE also hosts its own live and virtual Stamp Joy events to bring fans together to craft, network and share their creative ideas and “aha” moments.
