![]() I always have to laugh when I see this graphic - Cupcake Inspirations #556 is "anything goes," and it's brilliant! I'm going off the reservation a bit again today with another non-SU set, lol. A few weeks ago, I won top pick for a prize at Time Out Challenge #223 - wow! The prize was a $25 certificate to Newton's Nook, so I did a little shopping on them, lol. OF COURSE I found a new chicken set to play with - adorable! What totally caught my eye was this hilarious sentiment - I just couldn't resist! Thanks TOC! Such a fun prize! I think "chicken butt" is just right for anything goes, lol...

![]() Shopping Our Stash #480 is running a "leaf me alone" challenge this round - so cute! I've been really wanting to try Forever Fern in Fall colors for a while now - today is the day! I stamped three different stems in Cajun Craze, Pumpkin Pie and Crushed Curry. I tried to make them all radiate from a focal point, where I popped up my sentiment in Espresso. I thought some gold accents would go well, too, so I tousled some Metallic Gold Thread behind that as well, and added a few Brushed Gold Dots. I still needed a little something, so I threw on three tiny springs I cut with the matching dies, too. Time to stop! Forever Fern Stamp Set; Basic White & Cajun Craze CS; Early Espresso, Cajun Craze, Pumpkin Pie & Crushed Curry Inks; Forever Flourishing & Stylish Shapes Dies; Metallic Gold Thread; Brushed Gold Dots; #SOS480. ![]() Christmas Cards Part 2 Oct 15!

I had a good time building my haunted home in all our colors, lol. I was even able to use one of our tiny Matte Dots for the door knob! The Starry Sky bats almost broke me, but I pushed through it, lol. All oldies here, in new colors! So fun! I can't wait to see what YOU come up with for these crazy colors - meet you there!

For me, when I looked over my possible "pink" sets, the one that jumped out was This Birthday Piggy! Of COURSE a little piggy would be perfect in pink! I went with this little sleepyhead and made sure to bring on the pink - I don't think I've stamped this one before! What's even cuter about this one is the inside sentiment: "Go to your happy place and stay there all day!" Adorable! I snuck in a few Polished Pink Opal Rounds to finish things off - hopefully I have enough white space left to still qualify as CAS! This Birthday Piggy Stamp Set; Basic White & Polished Pink CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Flirty Flamingo, Polished Pink, Crumb Cake, Old Olive & So Saffron Blends Markers; Polished Pink Opal Rounds; #ATCAS227. ![]() Fall Cards Class Sep 10 at 2 PM Today's class will feature 5 cards with envelopes, all with lovely warm Fall themes and gratitude - we have such a pretty range to play with this year!

Digging through my folder stash, I came across the retired "Ruffled" - I've always felt like this one was a great one for stylized waves and water! I did my embossed panel in Pool Party, over some Crumb Cake for "sand," and went to look for a likely stamp set to add. I almost pulled the new lighthouse set (love it!) but in the end I wanted to do some curvy swimsuits from Sunny Splash. These are such vintage bathing beauties, lol, and they're fun to match up with our vibrant new In Colors! I even doctored up a label strip to order for the sentiment! Sunny Splash Stamp Set; Basic White, Crumb Cake & Pool Party CS; Sweet Sorbet, Parakeet Party, Starry Sky & Tahitian Tide Inks; Ruffled EF (retired); Seasonal Labels Dies; Whale of a Time Sequins (retired); #CYHTPBeach. ![]() Annual Catty Roundup Class, Aug 13 at 2 PM I couldn't resist this catch-all class to "round up" some stamp sets that don't quite fit in our other classes, lol.

One of our favorite summer activities is ROAD TRIPS, lol! There's nothing like a cooler full of yummy snacks, a full gas tank, a car load of happy dogs, and an open road, lol. We have spent so many lazy summer days this way, and I was happy to make a little card celebrating it! I found some fun diecuts in the He's the Man DSP, and added this "adventure" sentiment to go with - good times ahead! He's All That Stamp Set; He's the Man DSP; Crumb Cake, Early Espresso, Mint Macaron & Basic White CS; Early Espresso Ink; All That Dies; Linen Thread; Rustic Metallic Dots; #C4G299. ![]() Christmas in July 2022 on Saturday, July 16!

I had to pull out some cute paper for this one - I wanted to make my BACKGROUND be rainbow-esque, and save the calm solids for the details. This is a little backwards to my usual style! Anyway, I've also been wanting to use this "your way" sentiment for a while - this is the one I got this set for, of course, lol. I was bummed to see Happy & Heartfelt is retiring - I will definitely be keeping it around a while!

This one was a bit of a stumper for me, lol. The BEST thing? Sheesh, that's a tall order! I spent some time calling up some happy mom memories of my own, and finally decided what really came to mind for me was PRESENCE. The best thing about mothers is "being there," and being part of their children's lives, in a supportive, loving way. In my life, my happiest memories of times with my own mom are always over a teacup, lol, which was how we celebrated being together. Good times, and yummy ones, too, lol. How lucky that we have a new stamp suite just for tea! Yay! I can't wait to see YOUR answers to this one, AND your projects! Meet you there!

I knew right away I had to go back to 2017's Basket Bunch for this one - this row of fun Easter eggs can't be beat! I made up a festive panel and went to town with my Blends Markers coloring - so fun! I found this pretty checked sheet for my background in the Pansy Petals DSP, which had Soft Sea Foam as one of the coordinating colors, so that's how I picked my green, lol. I even slipped in some "grass" along one edge from the Basket Builder dies! I need a snack, now...

RSVP now to save your spot! ![]() OK, this week Cardz 4 Guyz #290 would like to see a fancy fold - what to do? I finally settled on a only-slightly-fancy fancy fold, lol, and went with a basic gatefold, to which I added a floating panel. One of the thing I love about these is all the room to write inside, AND that they still stand up for display. I have admit, I'm not a huge fan of card designs that don't stand up easily, lol. I used some of my precious remaining Beauty of the Earth DSP to inspire my colors, and FINALLY inked up my new Home & Garden set - which I of course didn't show off the awesome dies for yet, lol. I'm just a study in contradictions today, lol. Home & Garden Stamp Set; Beauty of the Earth DSP; Crumb Cake, Early Espresso & Basic White CS; Early Espresso Ink; Crumb Cake & Smoky Slate Blends Markers; #C4G290. ![]() Thank You Cards March 12!
