![]() Very fun - Retro Rubber #148 is celebrating birthdays this week! I went shopping on the shelves of retirement, and came up with my beloved Fortunate to Know You set from 2018 - I love all the little fortune cookie sentiments that come with this one, including this cute birthday one! While I was there, I grabbed my equally beloved Gorgeous Grunge from 2013, to add some cookie crumbs for a little background interest, too, lol. This is still my fave grungy set, I have to say! Anyway, I had some fun coloring and snipping my images, and putting together this little tableau. It's funny that this post falls on Thanksgiving, too - who here has Chinese for Thanksgiving? We do, because my mother-in-law's Dad was Chinese, so we always get some crazy sides with our awesome turkey, lol, but she doesn't serve them in a take-away like this!

![]() We have a doozy of a mix-it-up challenge this week at Try Stampin' on Tuesday #479 - and I think it'll go great with the birthday theme we have going on at SU Only #260, too! Lucky for me, my teamies have amply "rocked" the rocking card, lol, because I'm striking out on that aspect - I'm all over that sketch, though! I decided dramatic DSP was in order, and I recently came across my retired pack of Peaceful Poppies to fit the bill! I loved this paper! I went closely along with the sketch, and also featured my largest birthday sentiment, which happens to be this scripty die - fun! I did add a little stamped sentiment, too, and finished with a few rhinestones - love these flower papers! So, what will YOU create? I can't wait to see your projects, over at the challenges! So Sentimental Stamp Set; Peaceful Poppies DSP; Whisper White CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Happy Birthday, Circles Collection (retired) & Stitched So Sweetly Dies; Basic Jewel Rhinestones; #TSOT479; #SUOC260. ![]() Excellent! It's sketch time again here at Fab Friday #199! I felt like having a color-fest today, so OF COURSE my Rainbow Glimmer got to come out to play! I'm not sure why, but this paper always reminds me of the cutesie Hippo Happiness set, lol. Can't you just see rainbow hippos out having a party? I can, but maybe that's the Bailey's talking, you never know, lol. Anyway, a quick and cheery rainbow card is just what the stamp doctor ordered today - almost as good as chickens! So what will YOU create? I hope you're ready to come be fabulous with us!

I'm heading to the vault for one of my fave champagne sentiments, from Balloon Celebrations! This set was so awesome, with the fun balloon punch, but for me, it was really all about the mix and match drink sentiments! Tea? Coffee? Hot chocolate? Yes, please! I also matched it with my fave champagne flutes from Making Spirits Bright - I can hear the little "clink" now!

I had an itch to water-paint and fussy cut today, so I went with Whiskey Business for today's card. I matched it up with this tweedy sheet from the In Good Taste paper pack for a more manly look, too - this set loves this DSP! I tried out some new whiskey colors today, too - Bumblebee & Cinnamon Cider do a great whiskey job together, too! I even did the twist, lol. Too fun!

Happy 7th Birthday to The Male Room #141 - what a milestone! I think this calls for a card! I haven't had Pampered Pets out for inking since Critter Class - {GASP!} Let's fix that right now, lol! While I'm at it, I'll check off another box, which was to fussy cut one of the fabulous extra dogs from the gorgeous DSP - and the Great Dane was at the top of that list! I put together a fun little play with the DSP, did a two-color job with markers on my sentiment, and perched that pooch over all - love it! I even still had a little bone trinket left for him!

I'm really not sure why anymore, but these days, these bright colors send me straight to Hippo Happiness, lol. Too much Fantasia as a child? Maybe! I can just see hippos parading all over the place in bold colors, smiling away, every time! I kept this one fairly low-key - only ONE hippo! But she did get balloons, at least! A few enamel dots finishes me off. And can I just put in another plug for the Playing With Patterns DSP? So many fun colors and patterns, I'm finding I can use it with SO many designs! It fills a lot of niches for me!

I'm adding in some coloring, too, for SU Only #467! I honor of the throwback. I decided to pull out a retired set, too, and 2009's The More the Merrier is still one of my faves! Lots of little cuties in a row to color in - perfect for today's challenge! I decided to accent with a little strip of dotty paper from our Playing With Patterns pack, and took my colors from there. So fun coloring all these cupcakes with our Blends! So what will YOU create? I can't wait to see your projects, out at the challenges!

I couldn't resist pulling out my old Please Be Seated set from {GASP} 2005 - I knew I wanted to use one of these chairs to go with the great inspiration pic! I ended up having to move my colors around, I think my Balmy Blue Gingham Gala DSP was the first to go, lol, so I the check in yellow, and colored the rocker blue instead. I even snuck in a touch a of the green! I might have to send this as a tongue in cheek birthday for a friend, too, lol...

One of the first things that struck me was all the awesome animals, so I think we need a Critter Class to check them out more closely! Class will feature 6 cards with envelopes, snacks & drinks, and a special gift from me, all for $25! This class can also be FREE with your order of $30 or more! RSVP to save your spot today, for Saturday, June 11 at 3 pm, or sign up for the Traveling Class in a Box version! It will start the rounds right after our live class! ![]() Now here's an intriguing challenge from Less is More #422 - to use a solid AND an outline on your card - hmm! So, doing a quick search for outlines and solids, I finally settled on Special Someone - I don't use this cute set enough, and I'm happy it carried over, so I better get to it! I haven't even used these hearts before, which are meant to be balloons so I thought I'd feature them, and keep it simple, just for LIM, lol. I like how it came out, and my Poppy Parade is nice and bright! Happy card!
