![]() Time for another lovely landscape card at this week's Try Stampin' on Tuesday #387! I knew I wanted to bring on some gorgeous DSP for this one, and of course that means my Frosted Floral pack! This woodsy colored sheet with just a touch of shimmer is another fave from this set, and I love the watercolor look, too. The delicate images made me think of another scripture collection, and this one from 1 Peter from Our Daily Bread's Scripture Series 3 was just right. So many great reminders in these collections! So, what did YOU come up with? I can't wait to see over at the challenge! ODB Scripture Series 3; Frosted Floral DSP; Whisper White & Tranquil Tide CS; Tranquil Tide & Soft Suede Stampin' Write Markers; Layering Ovals Framelits; Petal Passion Embellishments; #TSOT387. ![]() Big Plans Planner Kit Class Dec 13 & 15! So excited that we finally get to put together our planners for 2019! The new Big Plans kit is gorgeous and easy to use, and has so many awesome new features over last year's - I know you're going to love it! For class, we will assemble our planner kits together, and then make a set of 10 notecards and envelopes to go with from the coordinating Big Plans Memories & More Card Pack - woo! There are two pricing options here: if you need the planner kit, your class is $40, and includes the full planner kit along with everything you need to make your 10 notecards (plus extra supplies!) If you have your own kit to bring, class is $15 for the notecard supplies. If you are only making the cards, the class can also be FREE with your order of $20 or more.

![]() We have a pretty portrait sketch for you at Try Stampin' on Tuesday #383 this week! I decided this layout gave me just the chance I needed to show off another new set that I've been wanting to get inky - Seize the Day. This set is from a new line of stamp styles for SU! - that they call DistINKtive - the stamps show different opacities in a single image, creating incredible detail! I had some fun layering a couple images from this fun new set, and adding some additional embellishments for the sketch - love it! Can't wait to see what YOU come up with - see you at the challenge! Seize the Day Stamp Set; Nature's Poem DSP; Crumb Cake, Tranquil Tide & Whisper White CS; Tranquil Tide, Blackberry Bliss, Crumb Cake & Mint Macaron Inks; Stitched Shapes Framelits; Blackberry Bliss Nature's Twine; Blackberry Bliss Faceted Dots; #TSOT383. ![]() Holiday Gifts & Packaging Class Nov 8 & 10!

With the sketch in mind, I went and perused the Shelves of Retirement - such a fun past-time to walk down Memory Lane! I love the chance Retro Rubber gives me to, um, justify, hanging on to some oldies but goodies, lol. Anyway, the nice round shape on the sketch kept drawing me back to 2012's Jewish Celebrations - LOVE the artwork in this one! I wish we could get a really robust new Judaic set, though even if we did, I'm pretty sure I'd still hang on to this beauty, lol. Shalom, my friends!

We have all different versions to inspire you, too! For my fun fold, I browsed on line for ideas for a bit, and decided I wanted to try my hand at the "zig-zag panel card" - I love the way the layers come together on this style! Also a great way to show off BOTH sides of our gorgeous DSP, and today I get to feature the exclusive Dashing Along pack! Here are the deets on how to get it for yourself! Anyway, I floated several oval panels over each other, and added beautiful holiday details from Mistletoe Season. I love that there are facing stamps in this set! Anyway, I can't wait to see what YOU come up with - lets have some fun-fold fun! See you at the challenge! Mistletoe Season Stamp Set; Dashing Along DSP; Cherry Cobbler, Garden Green & Whisper White CS; Cherry Cobbler, Garden Green & Memento Tuxedo Black Inks; Layering Ovals Framelits; Red & White Pearls (salvaged from an old Paper Pumpkin, lol); #TSOTSepTech. ![]() Ready for Fall Class Sep 13 & 15!

One of my favorite and most used embossing folders this year is the lovely Layered Leaves - it just goes with so much! I decided to pull out our Painted Harvest set to go with - I've been seeing so many pretty flowers in different colors with it this week - gotta get in on that! I stuck with my subtles collection for my flower pairings - so soft! I went a little nuts and made three combos - I think I covered up too much of my embossing - eek! Still, lots of fun, I even got some fussy cutting time - yay! PS. August 1 marks the start of some great new holiday promotions - Bonus Days are back, and there's a gorgeous new suite, Color Your Season, available, with NEW watercolor pencils!

I knew as soon as I saw the inspiration pic I would be pulling out my retired Succulent Garden DSP. What's funny is, I never did get the stamp set and framelits that are part of this suite, I just wanted that gorgeous paper! With the return of Mint Macaron to our color lineup, I have a feeling you might be seeing more of it, lol. Anyway, this card is also maybe the second time EVER that I have fussy cut a DSP element to feature (no stamp set, remember??) and I love how easy it was and how cool it came out! A touch of woodgrain to make a nod to the door, and I am DONE! Itty Bitty Greetings Stamp Set; Succulent Garden DSP (retired); Whisper White & Mint Macaron CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Pinewood Planks DEF; Fancy Frost Sequins (retired); #FusionCactus. ![]() Catch Up Classes Available July 21!

Since we're on the slant anyway, yuk-yuk, I decided to make it worse and turn my sketch, too! This gave me room for the big billboard shape I can use in the Broadway Birthday suite - woo woo! I even tried my hand at the dotted sentiments - the two larger sentiments each have a two-step stamp to add "bling" to your big word. It worked like a charm - photopolymer makes it so easy to line up! I also got to take this cake sheet out for air - I have to think of ways to show it off more! See you at the challenge!

Today is one of the rare times I've actually addressed BOTH sides of the Fusion, lol - I went for the sketch, of course, but I also pick up a bit of the inspiration pic, too! I just thought that our gorgeous Painted Harvest flowers would translate really well into the pretty colors, and I went digging for a lovely sentiment to go with that fit the layout - one of my faves, and so, a keeper!

I feel a Lemon Lime Twist moment coming over me... That little square at the bottom of the sketch seems just right for a wire fruit basket, don't you think? And some lovely Lemon Lime pears would be just right, too! So that's just what I did. I stamped my base basket with a few pears inside, and then stamped some extras that I punched out with their adorable Itty Bitty Pear Punch, lol. I tried to tone down the background colors a bit so I could show off those pears, but I just love the bright cheeriness of this whole suite! I'm going to miss my little frutties! Fruit Basket Stamp Set; Tutti-Frutti DSP; Whisper White, Basic Black& Lemon Lime Twist CS; Memento Tuxedo Black & Lemon Lime Twist Inks; Stitched Shapes Framelits; Mini Striped Ribbon in Lemon Lime Twist; Itty Bitty Pear Punch; #IM348. ![]() Picnic With You & Barn Door Class May 10 & 12 For the month of May, we're thinking picnics and farm trips with our gorgeous Picnic With You & Barn Door bundles!
