This looks fun - Shopping Our Stash #493 is a rare SKETCH! Wow! Without a doubt, the color I will miss the MOST that we are losing in this year's refresh is Mango Melody. I'm so sad to see it go, though I'm almost equally excited for you all to see our NEW colors coming in, lol. We can't keep them all, sigh... Anyway, I knew I wanted to feature it in today's card, and the gorgeous Happiness Abounds suite gives me plenty of beautiful scope to do just that! My sweet downline Sarah recently gifted me some extra packs of this DSP - her stash became my stash, lol, and I'm finally getting to play with it! Look how gorgeous it is with Granny Apple Green! I'm shedding a little Mango tear, lol...

I felt like this sketch called for some drama, and since the lovely tree in our Treasured Kindness set JUST arrived, I ran with that! I guessed, correctly I think, that the tree would be perfect as a large circle element, and to bump it up even more, I went rogue with colors so I could pull in the gorgeous Sun Prints DSP. I've really been playing with stamping things in non-realistic colors lately, it's growing on me! I can't wait to see YOUR takes on our fun sketch - meet you at the challenge!

We have something for everyone! I wanted to try to do something with the globe, for Earth Day coming up. Now that we have that glorious Watercolor World stamp, I had to use it! I stamped in Pear Pizzazz, smudged a bit with a Blender Pen, and then filled in my ocean with a Pool Party Blend Marker - whew! For my sentiment, this one from our fun Happy Labels set seemed appropriate, lol. I tucked a few Forever Flourishing leaves behind to carry the theme! I can't wait to see YOUR projects for my crazy Spring mood board - meet you at the challenge! Watercolor World & Happy Labels Stamp Sets; Basic White, Coastal Cabana & Pear Pizzazz CS; Pear Pizazz & Memento Tuxedo Black Inks; Pool Party Blends Marker; Forever Flourishing Dies; Layered Leaves EF (on envelope flap, retired); Rhinestone Waves Basic Jewels (retired); #HSS411. Oo, another fun quote from Time Out Challenges #234 - but it could be a tough one if I over-think it, lol. I went with our playful Playing in the Rain suite for this one - I think the set perfectly illustrates March, lol. Happy rain, Spring flower riots, and you STILL need a coat, lol! I did some scrappy panels of my two favorite DSPs, and paper-pieced a cheery little jacket for my dancing bunny. I also added more flowers - they're going crazy here with all our rain!

Such a brilliant theme at this week's Shopping Our Stash #492 - "somewhere over the rainbow!" Love it! I have JUST the stash for this one, too, lol. I quick ran and pulled out my hoarded Sunshine & Rainbows DSP from last Spring's SAB, and I still have the stamp bundle to go with it, too! I picked a yummy sheet with lots of rainbows, and then did a stamped one on Basic White to go over it. I had to adapt some of my colors - is anybody else's Pool Party stamping green these days?? Grr... Anyway, I subbed Polished Pink for Melon Mambo (that pad is out in a class box) and Coastal Cabana for the Pool Party - it really brightens things up! I added the two sentiments, and a few clouds at the bottom to really round things out. I had to cut this with my very first Circles Collection Dies - love having the larger circles still on hand!

We have some easy breezy colors for you this round at Hand Stamped Sentiments #410! Usually any time I see a green in our color mix, I start going through flower combos to pull out, but today I decided to go a little more abstract! I LOVE the Conversation Bubbles bundle, and I definitely need to pull it out more! I got it to show more dialogue on all my critter sets, but today I used it for the main event, too - I put together a fun little collage of a few of the bubbles in the dies, and it makes me smile big time! I'm really liking these colors together! I can't wait to see what YOU make of these cuties - meet you at the challenge!

I can't resist getting in on this month's Once Upon a Time #8 challenge - Harold and the Purple Crayon! I could have sworn I had a set of crayons I could stamp, but I just don't see them anywhere! Grr! I do still have my Mischievous Mice set from last year, and this little guy with the pencil will fill in just fine, lol. See how he scribbled all over the card? When I was done, it felt a little naked, so I went a dug out a few old Rich Razzleberry buttons to go with - this color USED to be in our Brights collection!

This month's cookie color at If You Give a Crafter a Cookie #178 is YELLOW! Sunny days ahead! I couldn't help but run straight to Sweet Citrus for this one, lol - When a challenge gives you yellow, grab the lemons! I first found this pretty stripey sheet for my background in the Day at the Farm DSP pack from Sale-a-Bration - perfect! I then decided to finally try my hand at cutting AND embossing my lemons - gotta give this hybrid combo a go! I stamped first, doing my rinds in Crushed Curry, then the centers in Daffodil Delight. I did a couple leaves in Granny Apple Green, too, and decided to do the sentiment in that as well, so it would show up better. Then I cut everything out, and then I did all my citrus on the EF - worked a treat! I finished with a few Glossy Dots for some points of light - pucker up! Sweet Citrus Stamp Set; Day at the Farm DSP (SAB 2023); Basic White & Daffodil Delight CS; Crushed Curry, Daffodil Delight & Granny Apple Green Inks; Sweet Citrus & Tasteful Labels (retired) Dies; Sweet Citrus EF; Glossy Dots; #Cookie178. This is exciting! The Male Room #172 has an actual SKETCH for us this month! I love it! I first thought I would try to stamp some kind of hatch-work pattern for that fun geometric band, but then I realized I wanted to play with DSP, lol. My He's All That suite is perfect for this! I grabbed my old 7/8" Square punch and dug through my scraps to come up with this layout. I also got to use this cute 'stache-y sentiment - love it! I finished with a few Rustic Metallic Dots, since I'm such an embellie addict, lol. Happy to have a little love-note for hubs!
