![]() It doesn't get much more festive than the candy cane challenge at this week's Merry Monday #225! I'm excited that Global Design Project #65 has colors to help me out, too! I kinda felt like I was flying without a net today - no actual sketch to interpret - weee! Luckily, I have this splendid giant candy cane from Banners For Christmas, and the tasty sentiments in Candy Cane Christmas to go with - yum! I kept it simple, but it's still bright and festive - I think this is my favorite sheet from this DSP!

![]() Woo hoo! What an achievement! This week marks Case This Sketch #200! Congrats, ladies! This week's colors at Can You Case It #142 seem like a perfect match, too! I had so much fun with my "wish" card a few days ago, I left the set out on my desk so as to keep an eye out for a new tasty cupcake opportunity. Today is that day! In fact, why not 200, in celebration?? OK, even I can admit that might be a little excessive, lol, but hey, it's the thought that counts. Congrats to everyone at CTS - thanks for all the good times! (PS. That embossed background is from my homemade embossing sheet from the squiggle in the framelits set!)

While I was at first a little nervous about trying to interpret this sketch, once I hit my stride, I had SUCH a blast pulling together the details! I would never have guessed how festive the final result would look to me! I tried to take my tree theme to the limit, lol. I think I'll just finish with a shout-out here about how grateful I am for the wonderful creative work all my sketch-junkie-enablers provide for me. Design Teams everywhere, thanks for your work, and for helping me grow. You're the best!

Yeah, baby! I really didn't add too much outside supplies for this card, just a couple pieces of Very Vanilla. I did decide, though, that those envelope insides are just too pretty to waste! Not too sure how many will survive to actually BE envelopes, lol. Something else I love about this kt is that there are THREE, count 'em, THREE different sizes sequins! I'm not sure why this is so exciting to me - it just is, lol... The gorgeous color mix might also be a factor...

Lucky for me, What Will You Stamp #85 is all about Spooky Fun this week - I spy a Halloween marriage made in heaven, lol... Today I decided my cute little witch needed to get some air-time, lol, and I had a lot of fun setting her a perfect little scene to view. When I thought I was done, I also felt like I was a little light on the Old Olive - that's no good! So I added some flourish vine bedding for my little pumpkins. These are such great thinlets! Can't wait to see your take on our colors over at the challenge - can't wait!

Did you think I forgot about your lonely Hello Life Decor grid?? No way, baby! It's time to bring on a couple new seasons, because it's time for some new outfits!

I figure an unusual sketch calls for an unusual stamp set, lol. In this case Be Jolly, By Golly, a set made to coordinate with Swirly Bird and the Swirly Scribbles thinlets. Neither of which I pulled in today, lol. Trying to honor the basics of the sketch really sent me off my usual style, if I have such a thing! Still, fun times! The set includes a couple stamps that are made to coordinate with each other like two-steps stamps, too - totally had to try that! Be Jolly, By Golly Stamp Set; This Christmas DSP; Whisper White, Garden Green & Cherry Cobbler CS; Cherry Cobbler & Memento Tuxedo Black Inks; Silver Glitter Ribbon; Basic Jewel Rhinestones. ![]() Hello Seasons Class 10/13 & 10/15!

OK, so I originally had this striking layout that was ALL Moroccan DSP, until I realized at the last second that one of my panels was mainly Early Espresso, NOT Soft Suede! Sheesh! Yes, I are a SU demonstrator, lol! Anyway, I subbed in a quick panel from my Into The Woods (LOVED those woodgrain sheets!) Quick and fun, and lots of layers! Watercolor Wings & Endless Thanks Stamp Sets; Moroccan & Into The Woods (retired) DSP; Very Vanilla, Delightful Dijon, Soft Suede & Emerald Envy CS; Emerald Envy, Delightful Dijon & Soft Suede Inks; Layering Circles Framelits; Butterflies Thinlets; Wood Butterfly Shape (leftover from Watercolor Wishes kit.) ![]() Pumpkin Club September 24!

Love it! The little bit of "corner business" definitely called to mind for me the latest Paper Pumpkin kit, Bold Botanicals. One of the gorgeous little flower stamps is a sort of corner-centric one - shaped for repeat stamping around a square - perfect for this sketch, too, lol. I doctored up my layers a bit, added a few touches of white to the leaves along with some bright pops of color in Tangerine Tango - I'll use up those candy dots if it kills me!

These angled stripes always make me think of Prince Charming, lol... Let's shake that off by adding these bright colors from Can You Case It #133! You know, there's a paper in the Affectionately Yours DSP pack that has yellow and green on Crumb Cake - that would be perfect! I dressed it up with some lovely coordinating flourishes, and added a sentiment for my dear friend Carol, who needs a boost. What a good time I had making this card - I can't wait to send it to her!

So, can you tell I got a new stamp set (or three!) this week? That's right, I couldn't resist this refreshing little set, Mixed Drinks! And with our downstairs AC on the fritz, and 116 degree weather, today seemed like a good day to visit drinks with umbrellas, lol... I referred quite a bit to the coloring suggestions in the catty - so fun to play with making layered drinks, and adding bubbles and straws! All the little accessories are super fun to play with! I do admit, though, that my color scheme was mostly inspired by the fact that I already had an envelope made with this DSP in the pack - I must have changed my mind on it some time - lucky I still loved it! Mixed Drinks Stamp Set; Painted Blooms DSP (retired); Whisper White, Rose Red & Blushing Bride CS; Memento Tuxedo Black, Rose Red, Calypso Coral, Crushed Curry & Pear Pizzazz Inks; Layering Circles Framelits. ![]() Thoughtful Branches Class Aug 11 & 13!
