![]() We have a lovely color array for you this week at Sunday Stamps #295! When I really got down to it, I felt like I was seeing a couple of our retried colors on this one, lol. Seaside Spray and Pretty Peacock, anyone?? These colors made a perfect bottle in my mind, so I worked in touches of the remaining colors after that, lol. I even had some Pretty Peacock DSP scrap to add - woo hoo! I'm so happy with how this came out! I can't wait to see YOUR projects in our colors this round - I hope you can come play! Bottled Happiness Stamp Set; Pretty Peacock DSP (retired); Basic White & Pretty Peacock (retired) CS; Pretty Peacock, Seaside Spray, Crushed Curry & Soft Suede Inks; Vintage Bottle Punch; Fine Sparkle Gems; Cajun Craze Linen Thread; #SSC295.

![]() Good timing! Cardz 4 Guyz #307 wants us to use Autumnal colors this round! I always think of Crushed Curry, Cajun Craze and Pumpkin Pie when I think of Fall colors, lol, what fun set could I show them off with? I finally decided on an autumnal Splendid Thoughts - the abstract 2-step stamps are perfect for layering these colors! I did everything on Very Vanilla for a change, too, it just seemed like the right background! Splendid Thoughts Stamp Set; Crumb Cake, Early Espresso & Very Vanilla CS; Early Espresso, Crushed Curry, Cajun Craze & Pumpkin Pie Inks; Splendid Stems Dies; Rustic Metallic Dots; #C4G307. ![]() Pumpkin Club October 29!

Today I'm sporting the "coloring" theme for SU Only #313, using our fresh 90's colors at Retro Rubber #194, in this fun mix it up challenge we have at Try Stampin' on Tuesday #579! I slipped back to 2020's Gather Together for my favorite leaves to color! I usually do this one in a watercolor wash with Water Painters, but today, I wanted to try it out with my Blends Markers - I love them so much! In the end, I'm really happy with how they came out, I feel like I can spot ALL the colors I used - neat effect! I really like that slash of Bermuda Bay for my sentiment, too, these have been such fun retro colors! I can't wait to see YOUR projects for ALL these challenges - see you there!

So much scope for our sketch at Try Stampin' on Tuesday #578, too! I went back to my 2020 Colorful Seasons bundle for this cutie - I still so love the little chairs and perfect dies in this set! I kept things on task with the gorgeous maple leaves - now THAT is some Fall color! This is one thing I miss seeing here in Arizona - there's a bit of color up on the Rim, but not what I remember from my Virginia days, lol. I can't wait to see YOUR projects for our challenges this round - show me the Fall! Colorful Seasons Stamp Set (retired 2020); Basic White, Cajun Craze & Crumb Cake CS; Early Espresso, Cajun Craze & Crushed Curry Inks; Seasonal Layers Dies; Leaf Fall EF; Brushed Metallic Dots; #HSS400; #TSOT578. ![]() This should be fun - clean and simple for The Male Room #167 this round! A set I haven't played with in a bit is the lovely Lighthouse Point - perfect for a guy! I did this simple lighthouse standing tall on some rocks, and the perfect simple sentiment to go with. This sucker really is a bit of a challenge to line up, lol - took me several tries to get something I could live with! I decided that splash of "light" color was just right to draw the eye, too... I'm all stamps, ink and paper today! Lighthouse Point Stamp Set; Basic White & Smoky Slate CS; Smoky Slate, Night of Navy & Crushed Curry Inks; #TMR167. ![]() 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!

RSVP now to save your spot! ![]() Ahh, Make My Monday #184 has a sweet "Autumn Flora or Fauna" challenge this round - love it! I'm getting in a little bit of both those ideas with Nuts About Squirrels! I love stamping these guys, such fun two-steps, and I love any excuse to play with the sweet leaf arrangement, too, lol. I also realized it tied in pretty well with this sheet from our Rings of Love DSP from SAB - anyone else still have a pack or seven?? Too bad I didn't use more of it here, I suppose, lol. Still, it goes great with my hard-working guy! Nuts About Squirrels Stamp Set; Rings of Love DSP (retired); Basic White & Crushed Curry CS; Early Espresso, Crumb Cake, Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie & Poppy Parade Inks; Rustic Metallic Dots; #MMM184. ![]() I so love our fun colors this round at Hand Stamped Sentiments #399! They're going to look great with our sketch at Try Stampin' on Tuesday #576, too! I had to really think through this one - that sketch is a little complicated! I finally settled on my beloved Art Gallery set to carry the colors, and experimented with a combo that would highlight them all! I started with a Pool Party base, then a stamped off detail layer in Starry Sky, and finished with Pumpkin Pie for the center - I really like this look! After that, I just needed to figure out how to work in the layout - almost a stumper! I can't wait to see YOUR projects for our challenges this round - bring them on! Art Gallery Stamp Set; Pool Party & Starry Sky DSP; Basic White & Starry Sky CS; Pool Party, Starry Sky & Pumpkin Pie Inks; Timeworn Type EF; Floral Gallery Dies; Pumpkin Pie Sequins For Everything; #HSS399; #TSOT576. ![]() Beautiful! We have some warm and fuzzy Fall colors for you this round at Sunday Stamps #293! I actually didn't get any of the current Fall pumpkins set this year, lol (shhhHHH!!) So I went back to my Pretty Pumpkins set from 2021. This trio seemed like the perfect way to show off our colors! I wanted to add some pop after I got all my elements done, so I slipped some Stylish circles behind each one - I love the look! I can't wait to see YOUR creations with our palette this round - meet you there! Pretty Pumpkins Stamp Set (retired 2021); Basic White, Soft Suede, Pumpkin Pie, Balmy Blue & Smoky Slate CS; Memento Tuxedo Black & Soft Suede Inks; Soft Suede, Pumpkin Pie, Smoky Slate & Balmy Blue Blends Markers; Detailed Pumpkins (retired & Stylish Shapes Dies; Rustic Metallic Dots; #SSC293. ![]() OK, how perfect is this week's code word at Addicted to CAS #229?? Let's CRAFT! I knew I would go straight back to my old It Starts With Art set from 2020 - so many crafty elements in that one! I went for the little stack of ribbon spools - mine might be a little bit out of control, lol. I chose this bold stripey DSP from our giant Design a Daydream pack, and took my colors from there! I even found a truly ancient spool of Daffodil Delight Grosgrain - I still have about 6 of these in various colors, left! And I knew I'd be using this crafty sentiment, too - the theme of many a stampin' retreat! It Starts With Art Stamp Set (retired 2020); Design a Daydream DSP; Basic White & Blackberry Bliss CS; Memento Tuxedo Black & Blackberry Bliss Inks; Crumb Cake, Petal Pink, Old Olive & Daffodil Delight Blends Markers; Arts & Crafts Dies (retired); For Everything Fancy Pink Sequins; #ATC229. |
