![]() Such pretty natural colors we have for you this round at Retro Rubber #227! I couldn't help but think of a cute critter dressed up in blue when I thought of these colors, lol. When I did a quick browse for likely candidate, I kept coming back to 2021's Hot Dog set - he has so many cute accessories to color! I ended up staying pretty clean and simple today, but I think I might officially be over my fear of Blueberry Bushel! What a cutie! I can't wait to see YOUR pretty Retro projects in our colors this round - meet you at the challenge!

![]() So super fun - we want to see what you have for "transport" this round at Make My Monday #222! I couldn't resist going back to my Legendary Ride set - love these choppers! I have also carefully hoarded some of the Ready to Ride DSP that was released with it, lol, and I am still just as smitten with the sheet that has the little biker scenes that we can cut apart and use as backgrounds. I liked this one so much I let it do all the heavy lifting! I did color in my little bike with Pumpkin Pie to match the details, but still so fabulous! Can't wait to see YOUR transport projects this round - meet you at the challenge! Legendary Ride Stamp Set; Ready to Ride DSP (retired); Very Vanilla, Basic Black, Basic Gray & Pumpkin Pie CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Pumpkin Pie Blend Marker; Tasteful Labels Dies (retired); Basics 2 EF; Pumpkin Pie Twine; Matte Black Dots; #MMM222. ![]() Pumpkin Club Mar 30 at 2 PM!

I have some great food sets, but today I wanted to play again with Simply Sparkling - so fun! I did a pair of soda cans, and gave them each a funny label - the sentiments are great for building cute combos! I floated them both over this Sweet Sorbet Glimmer CS, the ombre effect is so cool, lol, and I tucked in some bubbles while I was at it! I finished with a few Sweet Sorbet Pearls, too, gotta have a little bling even on a guy card! Simply Sparkling Stamp Set; Sweet Sorbet Glimmer, Basic White, Basic Black, Parakeet Party & Sweet Sorbet CS; Memento Tuxedo Black, Sweet Sorbet & Parakeet Party Inks; Gray Granit, Bubble Bath & Lemon Lolly Blends Markers; Simply Sparkling & Radiating Stitches Dies; Sweet Sorbet Pearls; #TMR184. ![]() Pumpkin Club Mar 30 at 2 PM!

Ever since I played with that old pack of Confetti Celebration DSP from 2014, there has been this triangles sheet on my mind - so bold! Of course, the only color I still have from this particular sheet is Basic Gray, lol. But it sprang right to mind when I saw this challenge! I decided Pumpkin Pie could be close enough, and did my remaining details in Gray - this is one of my rare no-stamping cards! Such a blast - I layered up the DSP, then cut a Stitched Triangle from Pumpkin Pie. I finally added it at an angle across the background pattern, then I set up the sentiment with my Wanted To Say dies - LOVE these things! The little cloud layer behind it lets me pop it up with the big triangle! I finished with a few Gray Faceted Gems, the perfect touch. I'm so happy with how this came out! Wanted to Say & Stitched Triangles Dies; Confetti Celebration DSP (retired); Basic White, Basic Gray & Pumpkin Pie CS; Faceted Gems; #AAAB59. ![]() Woo, hope you're ready! We have some Speedy Spring Flowers for our challenge this round at As You See It #319! One of my favorite ways to keep the time down on our speed challenges is to let the DSP do the heavy lifting, so to speak, lol. So when I checked out my stamp shelves for a good flower set to use, I tried to focus on ones that I knew I had DSP for. When Pansy Patch caught my eye, I knew right away I wanted to do this one - I suspect this beauty will finally retire this year, sigh. Did I still have any DSP for it though? I sure did, and it had a bunch of already cut pansies and leaves in it, too - jackpot! I assembled my items, and started the clock! I didn't really have a layout plan, and I didn't pre-select my pansies from the pile in there - oops, plus a run to the punch tower for my sentiment - so I still ended up taking 6 minutes 44 seconds while I fiddled pieces around - whew! I even had time to do the envelope! I can't wait to see YOUR speedy flowers for us, too - meet you at the challenge! Pansy Patch Stamp Set; Pansy Petals DSP (retired); Basic White & Evening Evergreen (retired) CS; Evening Evergreen Ink (retired); Pansy Dies; Large Oval Punch; Evening Evergreen Opal Rounds (retired); #AYSI319. ![]() This is a good one - FarmQuest #47 this round is "things found in a field!" I'm totally gonna have to go with my super cute Cutest Cows bundle again for this one! Cows in a field is iconic! I created a lovely Lemon Lime Twist field for them first - I pulled in the fencing from Hey Chuck, and the grasses from the Sending Love dies - just right! Next up came two cows, a boy and a girl, lol, in true dairy cow style, lol. I finished up with a few of our Adhesive-Backed Flowers that go with the bee suite! The "special day" sentiment is on the inside. Such cuties! Cutest Cows & Hey Chuck Stamp Sets; Lemon Lime Twist DSP; Basic White, Granny Apple Green & Crumb Cake CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Basic Black, Smoky Slate & SU1000 Blends Markers; Hey Chuck & Sending Love Dies; Cutest Cows Builder Punch; Adhesive-Backed Hearts & Flowers; #FQCB47. ![]() Such a fun challenge - The Sisterhood of Crafters would like us to use dots or stripes this round! Since our new Annual Catalog is fast approaching, I went to my outgoing In Colors to look for stripes, lol. I'll be so sad to see this set go! I chose the pretty Orchid Oasis sheet to go over Starry Sky, and added some other Starry Sky details - I LOVE this big guitar pick! I heat-embossed my sentiment onto that, and did up a hot Starry Sky guitar to go with it, with a few White stars for accents - very cool! Rock Star Stamp Set; Orchid Oasis DSP; Basic White & Starry Sky CS; Memento Tuxedo Black & Versamark Inks; White EP; Starry Sky Blend Marker; Rock Star Dies; #TSOCStripes. ![]() Thank You Cards 2024 Class March 9!

A set I haven't used in a while (and yes, I might need Mexican for dinner tonight, lol) is Taco Fiesta! I just love this birthday sentiment, so I tried to make a CAS card around it! A simple row of some guac elements, the perfect sentiment below, with just a squeeze a lime - yum! These are so fun to color with my blends! Taco Fiesta Stamp Set; Basic White & Granny Apple Green CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Smoky Slate, Granny Apple Green, Lemon Lime Twist, Daffodil Delight, Pecan Pie & Real Red Blends Markers; Old Olive Matte Dots; #AAA259. ![]() Now this is a fun one! Shopping Our Stash #515 would like us to "put our best face forward" and add a human face to our card! Tricky! So, except for Santa, turns out I don't have many faces here, lol - I'm more of a critter gal! BUT, I remembered, I have a newly acquired Sassy Suzie, from 2009, that I have never inked up! Perfect! As I reviewed the sentiments for this cutie, I realized WHY she's called Sassy Suzie, lol. She'll say anything! Since she's sitting at this little cafe table, I gave her a cafe front background from the Les Shoppes DSP pack, and had some fun coloring her in. At the last second, I put one of her zingers inside, too - I'll have to choose the recipient carefully, lol. Sassy Suzie Stamp Set (retired 2009); Les Shoppes DSP; Basic White & Misty Moonlight CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Night of Navy, SU400, SU100, Cherry Cobbler, Gray Granite, Moody Mauve, Boho Blue & Pebbled Path Blends Markers; Stylish Shapes Dies; Misty Moonlight Tinsel Gems; #SOS515. ![]() Wow! Time Out Challenges #257 is celebrating a BIG birthday! 10 years! So we get to celebrate too, by making birthday cards for this challenge! This card turned out to be a REAL time out for me today, lol. I got to thinking, what was I stamping 10 years ago? What's on the shelves of retirement from 2014?? Turns out most of my 2014 stamps are Christmas ones, lol, BUT my beloved Skinny Mini Alphabet set was released that year! This really took me back to my alphabet addiction days, lol, I think I still have like 10 different ones, not even counting dies! I finally pulled a catty, too - what else was going on that year? Turns out I even happen to have this pack of Confetti Celebration DSP from then, too, and since I hung on to my Bermuda Bay, I can even coordinate! And so this card was born, lol - what fun it's been! What a Time Out! Skinny Mini Alphabet Stamp Set (retired 2014); Confetti Celebration DSP (retired); Basic White & Bermuda Bay (retired) CS; Bermuda Bay Ink (retired); Bermuda Bay Buttons (retired!); White Baker's Twine; Rhinestone Waves Basic Jewels; #TOC257. ![]() Pumpkin Club Feb 24 at 2 PM!
