![]() We have a lovely floral sketch for you this round at Sunday Stamps #298! So, even though I'm not actually showing FLOWERS here, I am so sad about the retiring of the gorgeous Splendid Thoughts that I knew I had to feature it - these dies are so amazing! I went a little overboard layering ALL the dies today, lol, and I pulled the full color range from the DSP, which I ended up not using. I still have too many of the coordinating SAB card bases and envelopes left over, so I thought I'd use a set of those instead! I finished with some Bumblebee Trinkets - love these guys so much! I can't wait to see YOUR projects for our floral sketch - meet you there! Splendid Thoughts Stamp Set; Soft Sea Foam Card & Envelope (retired); Pool Party, Basic White, Fresh Freesia, Petal Pink, Calypso Coral, Soft Sea Foam & Sahara Sand CS; Memento Tuxedo Black & Soft Sea Foam Inks; Soft Sea Foam Blend Marker; Splendid Stems Dies; Bumblebee Trinkets; #SSC298. ![]() Spring Mini & SAB Preview Class Dec 17, 2 pm I can't believe it, but it's already time to take a sneaky peek at some upcoming goodies in our Spring Mini Catalog and Sale-A-Bration! So many fun treats to choose from! Class will feature 6 cards with envelopes! Class includes all supplies needed for your projects (bring your own fave snips and adhesive!) plus snacks and drinks, and a special gift from me, all for $25! This class can also be FREE with your order of $30 or more! Class in on for Saturday, December 17 at 2 pm - RSVP now to save your spot!

![]() Excellent, Cardz 4 Guyz #310 is back with a new challenge - birds! I know my go-to is usually chickens in the bird department, but I also love this cute Bird Banter set from 2018 - the sentiments are just awesome! I wanted to use this glorious red macaw (though I could have made him blue, lol) in a party hat, so I looked him up online to get the colors right! I love how he came out, and I used an inside sentiment on this one, too, which I rarely do! It says, "Still suspiciously young looking, I see." Very cheeky, lol. Bird Banter Stamp Set (retired 2018); Basic White & Bermuda Bay CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Real Red, Daffodil Delight, Bermuda Bay, Smoky Slate & Granny Apple Green Blends Markers; Coastal Cabana Glimmer Enamel Dots (retired); C4G#310. ![]() This should be fun - Make My Monday #188 has a "things with wings" challenge! I decided to do the pretty Pegasus in my Pure Magic set for the wings - trying to think outside the nest, so to speak, lol. This is the only image I haven't used yet - and I almost did go with the dragon again! Still, gotta let everyone get inky! Anyway, I pulled out this sky-like DSP sheet from the retired Sunshine & Rainbows pack, and did a cloudy feature using my Basic Borders dies. I kept my Pegasus pretty simple, but added some subtle color on the wings using a Water Painter - I love the look! Pure Magic Stamp Set; Sunshine & Rainbows DSP (retired); Basic White & Basic Black CS; Memento Tuxedo Black, Fresh Freesia & Smoky Slate Inks; Water Painters; Basic Borders Dies; Subtle Shimmer Sequins; #MMM188. ![]() I LOVE the prompt at this month's The Flower Challenge #74 - "add embellishments!" No problem! Today I wanted to play with my Blessings of Home set - somehow I don't seem to ink it up as often as I could. I wanted bright colors today - a contrast to the DSP this set was introduced with - I think this might be what has put me off, lol. I had myself a good old time with my blends markers, lol, and my embellishments are two of my beloved Bumblebee Trinkets - of course they'd be buzzing by these pretty flowers! Blessings of Home Stamp Set; Basic White & Old Olive CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Mango Melody, Pumpkin Pie, Cajun Craze, Old Olive, Daffodil Delight, Balmy Blue, Crumb Cake & Sweet Sorbet Blends Markers; Painted Textures EF; Flowers of Home Dies; Bumblebee Trinkets; #TFC74. ![]() Pumpkin Club November 26!

If You Give a Crafter a Cookie #174 found this crazy monster truck for our cue this month! So somehow or other I must have let go of my Pedal to the Metal stamp set - it would have been great for this challenge! I do have an assortment of OTHER trucks, though, lol. I dug out 2020's Ride With Me, and gave it a street-worthy flame job instead! I even built it a little off-road scene with Oceanfront, but I think it might need bigger tires for those rocks, lol...

I decided to play with Whiskey Business today - I can't help but think of this as a pretty manly set, even though I know plenty of whiskey-drinking ladies, too, lol. First up, I designed the card front with a couple of drinks, and this tongue-in-cheek sentiment to go with. I'm really happy with the coloring today! Then I made up this simple inside of the decanter standing up when you open the card - it came out pretty cool! I've actually never done one of these before - gluing in a little folded strip for the bottle was a snap! Fun times! Whiskey Business Stamp Set; He's The Man DSP; Basic White & Early Espresso CS; Memento Tuxedo Black, Early Espresso, Mango Melody, Cajun Craze & Pool Party Inks; Water Painter; Rectangle Stitched Dies; Rustic Metallic Dots; #TMR168. ![]() Holiday Packaging Class 2022 Nov 19!

I haven't pulled out my He's All That suite in far too long, and I can never get enough of the manly DSP! I went with a barbecue theme for this one - hubby does the grilling in our house, and I just had to use the BBQ sheet, lol. We even had a little grill in the die-cut pieces sheets - perfect! I did up a medallion of the smoky sentiment, and popped everything together - simple and quick!

I decided to start today's card by having a browse through my critter category. The Party Puffins haven't been out in far too long! I had some fun doing a color feature of Starry Sky, too - I love it when we get EVERYTHING in our In Colors, lol. Anyway, I had to do up the hat, the cake frosting - even the fish ribbon got the Starry Sky treatment, lol. Such a fun party!

I knew for sure I wanted to make a birthday card - because TFC is celebrating a big one - 6 years! What a great milestone! I pulled out Wildflower Path - such a great set - I call this one my sleeper favorite for this year - it's SO versatile! I couldn't resist some big Blackberry Bliss flowers for this one, and finished off with some Brushed Brass Butterflies - a perfect Spring day! Wildflower Path Stamp Set; Basic White & Blackberry Bliss CS; Granny Apple Green & Blackberry Bliss Inks; Rectangle Stitched Dies; White Baker's Twine; Brushed Brass Butterflies; #TFC73. ![]() Ah ha, what a cutie we have at this month's Once Upon a Time #3 - The Monster at the End of This Book! I actually don't know this book, but who doesn't love Grover?? In honor of him (his book after all, lol) I think I'll do a yeti in Grover colors! That's a monster, right? I decided to do a simple doorway behind him from our new sneak peek, Warm Welcome - he's busting in to a birthday party! I'm so thrilled with the special dies we released - I got to try this cute scarf on him, too, lol. I also had fun with my sentiment from the Lawn Fawn Yeti or Not set - I got it just to coordinate with our Yeti to Party!
