![]() I'm super excited about CAS on Friday #248's challenge this round - it's insects! I'm excited because I've been looking for a challenge I could play 2017's Beetles & Bugs on - I picked up this set from a friend who was doing some de-stashing - I didn't have anything else like it! I combined it with Hello Ladybug, so I could use that fabulous (if perhaps slightly obvious, lol) sentiment, too! It was fun to make my bugs all pretty in Pool Party and Granny Apple Green, I think they're super cute! Hello Ladybug & Beetles & Bugs (retired 2017) Stamp Sets; Basic White & Basic Black CS; Memento Tuxedo Black & Pool Party Inks; Granny Apple Green Blends Marker; #CASOF248.

![]() We have a super sweet sketch for you this week at Sunday Stamps #300! I decided to really go wild, and turn the sketch, lol, so I could show off another new bundle, On the Ocean! I paired it up with our retired Waves of the Ocean DSP - so dramatic! I did a high seas kind of background, and did some extra waves with the gorgeous dies in a contrasting color, then floated my sailing ship over it all! All that ocean called for the sentiment I chose, lol, because it looks like a rough sailing day, lol. I can't wait to see YOUR projects for our lovely sketch - meet you there! On the Ocean Stamp Set; Waves of the Ocean DSP (retired); Basic White & Coastal Cabana CS; Early Espresso Ink; Blender Pen (on the hull); On the Ocean & Deckled Rectangles Dies; Milky Dots; #SSC300. ![]() Birthday Cards Class 2023!

One of my favorite straight-up Winter sets is my old Mountain Adventure set from 2016 - I love the scenes we can build with it! I did a quick mountain view and ski lift, with a cozy chalet in the foreground - I could totally bunk there, lol. I did a little coloring with my Blends Markers, and heat-embossed the sentiment in White on a little Crumb Cake square. This was surprisingly quick to pull together, too! Here's to Winter! Mountain Adventure Stamp Set (retired 2016); Basic White & Crumb Cake CS; Memento Tuxedo Black, Shaded Spruce & Versamark Inks; White EP; Pool Party, Crumb Cake, Cherry Cobbler, & Shaded Spruce Blends Markers; #MMM189. ![]() Spring Mini & SAB Preview Class Dec 17, 2 pm I can't believe it, but it's already time to take a sneaky peek at some upcoming goodies in our Spring Mini Catalog and Sale-A-Bration!

Another challenge at NBUS #45 - just in time for new pre-order goodies from the upcoming Spring Mini! I really couldn't wait to show off the gorgeous Beautiful Thistle set! It has perfect dies that go with it, and the artwork is amazing! I kept it simple for my first outing with the single large stem over, of course, Highland Heather DSP, lol. I backed it with a pretty Soft Sea Foam panel, and added the sentiment over it on White. A few Opal Rounds finish things off - love it!

I'm pretty proud that I stuck pretty tight to the sketch layout for this one - you know how I like to "stray," lol. But it was the perfect simple layout to show off one of our upcoming Sale-A-Bration sets - Adorable Owls! How cute is this? I pulled in my Parakeet Party DSP, and after checking our handy color guide, added in some Night of Navy and Pool Party - it really DOES coordinate! Some Parakeet Party details bring it home! I can't wait to see YOUR projects for our final sketch of the year - meet you there!

I actually don't know this book, but what a gorgeous cover! I tried to design a card inspired by the lovely colors and design elements, and, of course, an apt "dream" sentiment! I had just the thing in the Begin With a Dream set, over a few details I thought I could come close to. I actually really like the result - I don't do much in this style, so I felt pretty unsure of where I was headed, lol. Whew!

After some thought, though, I realized what we like the BEST is just travel itself - we really like to go see stuff! Road trips, catching a plane, trains, boats - we just love it all! And we might like taking a load off once we get there, lol. Folks that work hard have to play and loaf equally hard, I always say! So how about you? I can't wait to see YOUR leisure activities!

I wanted to see if I could make these colors into NOT a Christmas card today - I know, perverse, right?? I hit on another arrangement with Splendid Thoughts, and just a few touches of Cherry Cobbler. Splendid Thoughts is turning in to on of my favorite sets! I found a little bit of Cherry Cobbler Baker's Twine, and a few old Paper Pumpkin Cherry Dots, too - it's all in the details, lol.

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...

I had to do a deep dive to find something for this one - I'm done with Halloween for the season, lol. Can I do googly eyes without it? Turns out, yes I can! I finally stumbled across last year's Snailed It set - these guys were MADE for googly eyes! I chose this little guy and opted for a fun purple combo, then had a little flash of brilliance and put everything over black! That way, I could leave a little snail trail with my Wink of Stella! I SO crack myself up, lol!
