![]() Can you believe we're already kicking off our next challenge at My Pumpkin Challenge?? We have a fun one this month, too, MPC0216-Share Your Story! Now, at first glance, I know this LOOKS like a Valentine's card, and I'm sure I'll have one of those next week, but there's a story for this one, of course! Guess who's di-VOON hubby just told her he has booked a cruise for our anniversary the first week of April?? That's right! That's MY man! Lol. It will be the same cruise line we cruised on for our honeymoon, so sweet, and he totally worked around my trip to Salt Lake City for our Stampin' Up! On Stage event, too! I so can't wait - I'm sure we won't ever even leave the ship, lol... Since my big scallop heart is such an odd shape, I went ahead and made a 5" x 5" envelope for it with our Birthday Bouquet DSP, too - works a charm! Can't wait to give this to my sweetie! Cute Conversations Paper Pumpkin; plus, Basic Gray Ink; Birthday Bouquet DSP; Blushing Bride Glimmer Paper; Hearts Framelits (retired); Itty Bitty Accent Heart Punch; Envelope Punch Board. ![]() Enjoy the Little Things Kit Class Feb 11 & 13! I'm so excited to get together with you to put together this adorable decor kit, Enjoy the Little Things! Besides the supplies to make the 13 placards for display, your kit also includes this sturdy and versatile "clapboard" clipboard, that stands on its own, ready for business! There are SO many fun details to this project! Class is announced for Thursday, February 11 at 630 pm, and Saturday February 13 at 3 pm, for $30. I'll have the few little extra supplies you'll need, plus drinks and snacks, of course, and an extra treat from me as always! RSVP now to reserve your kit today! ![]() Here's a fun Christmas challenge from this week's Merry Monday #187 - use plaid! I think I'll get a little help from this week's Freshly Made Sketch #219, too - these nice background layers are perfect for showing off some plaid! Once I dug out some plaids from the still-current-because-it's-in-the-BIG-book Merry Moments, I decided to make a little scene to float over it. "Making a little scene" pulled me over to the Jingle All the Way bundle, which, frankly, I ended up not using as much as I thought I would. Which is SO bizarre, because it's so fun to play with those layers! I arranged my pieces, cut out the whole thing with ovals, and added some touches of glitter - I even glittered a Snowflake Element! Love how THAT came out for sure... Jingle All the Way Stamp Set; Merry Moments DSP; Crumb Cake, Cherry Cobbler, Night of Navy, Mossy Meadow & Whisper White CS; Cherry Cobbler Ink; Ovals Collection Framelits; Sleigh Ride Edgelits; Softly Falling Embossing Folder; Snowflakes Element; Occasions Piercing Template (retired); Dazzling Diamonds Glitter. ![]() Pumpkin Club January 30!

I think I'll combine it with the cool color combo from Can You Case It #101! With these colors, I decided to spring again for the awesomely versatile Perfectly Artistic DSP from this year's Sale-A-Bration catalog - so swirly! And of course, I have a feeling I'll be using a lot of Blackberry Bliss before it retires this summer, too, lol. I'm not in mourning yet, but, sigh, I can see it coming... I also decided to try my hand at fussy cutting the big bold sentiment in the Hello stamp set, another SAB item - it was totally doable! I think this all came together very cute! Hello Stamp Set; Perfectly Artistic DSP; Blackberry Bliss & Whisper White CS; Blackberry Bliss Ink; Stitched Satin Ribbon in Blackberry Bliss; SAB 2015 In Color Buttons; White Baker's Twine. ![]() Birthday Cards Class Jan 14 & 16!

RSVP now to reserve your spot, and make sure I have your supplies waiting for you! ![]() This week's Merry Monday #184 has a yummy theme - to make it about baking! This theme really stumped me at first. My initial thought was to run to the Room of Retirement for some awesome cupcake action - that could be so fun to color in a Christmas theme! But, I really wanted to try for some current stamps. Then I thought, how about a big CAKE! And look, there's a stripey layer you could do in red like candy canes! That was pretty much it. Discovering that the "Ho Ho Ho" just fit on top was just the icing on the cake, yuk, yuk... Build A Birthday & Oh, What Fun Stamp Sets; Merry Moments DSP; Whisper White & Cherry Cobbler CS; Mossy Meadow, Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive & Versamark Inks; Silver Embossing Powder; Brights Sequins. ![]() More Seasons Class December 19! Here's a little thumbnail taste of what we have in store for December's class! I don't know about you, but I am NOT ready to pack away my Season to Season Wreath we worked so hard on! So let's add More Seasons! This class is for the creation of nine more mini banners to fill in the rest of the year on our Season to Season Wreath, or for use on any wreath base of your choice. And, they're pretty stinkin' cute, if I do say so myself! I've had SO much fun getting this ready for you! (And showing off some new goodies!) Class is still on for Saturday December 19 at 3 pm. All supplies provided, plus snacks, drinks and treats, all for $20! Just bring along your favorite adhesive and some paper snips. Let's close this year with a crafting bang!

What to do? That's actually a less-than-rhetorical question for me on this kit! As has happened for ALL our holiday pumpkins, I love this kit AS IS! I almost hate to use the supplies for going off the reservation - what if I can't make the kit cards, too? I'm already well into my second kit here! Anyway, I knew I wanted to focus on those gorgeous envelopes this time - I can't let that stash of "secret DSP" get away! I decided to try out my Festive Flower Builder punch on it, and add a few extra details. I LOVE how this came out! I even got a few leaves out of the corners of the holly die-cuts! I hope this inspires you to come join us - share your gorgeous creations over at the challenge - we can't wait to see them! Mistletoe & Holly Paper Pumpkin; plus, Silver Glimmer CS; Versamark Ink; Silver Embossing Powder; Festive Flower Builder & 1" Circle Punches; Petals-A-Plenty (retired) Embossing Folder. ![]() More Seasons Class December 17 & 19!

I think I'll match it with the yummy tropical colors of SU-per Challenge #112! It's funny, the layouts are actually pretty similar, too, hm... These colors sent me to a birthday card today, and wouldn't you know, I just happened to have an un-inked stamp set on my desk with a big circle shape in it - Circle of Spring! I am SO thrilled that the Mother Ship has produced so many different stamp sets for the Wonderful Wreath framelit set - and that they're so AWESOME! Trying this one out with these colors was quite the challenge, lol, but I love the touches of gold throughout!

Another cute sketch this week from Freshly Made Sketches #208!
So, I just realized I have a little stack of - GASP - un-inked stamps under some, um, stuff, on my desk! Sacrilege! Today's set features our newest snowflake offering (yes, yes, I always swear I won't get anymore, but hey, this makes seven generations of snowflakes in an unbroken line of stampin' goodness! Why mess with a record like that?) The hook for me on this one was the bundle of this with the matching punch - sa-WEET! I'm such a sucker for an accessory, lol. This set was perfect for this sketch, though, I think. This could be my house card this year, except for the irony of mailing it out from the Arizona desert! Flurry of Wishes Stamp Set; Lost Lagoon, Soft Sky & Whisper White CS; Lost Lagoon, Soft Sky & Encore Silver Inks; Softly Falling Embossing Folder; Snow Flurry Punch; Lost Lagoon Taffeta Ribbon; Silver Sequins.
