![]() Mmm, is that popcorn I smell?? Must be, because Fusion has an "at the movies" challenge for us this week! I double-checked to be sure, but it's official, I have NO movie sets in my collection. Oh wait, oops, I moved Ready to Pop down to the "food" section on the shelves of retirement, lol. Too late! I decided to go with the sketch and the colors - red and black and white is SO classy! I pulled out some scraps of our just-retired Pattern Party DSP, and did some spot coloring with a Real Red Blend Marker. I arranged everything how I wanted per the sketch, and finished with this "awesome" sentiment from Happy & Heartfelt - so cute! One tiny red dot closes us out - I'm in love! Happy & Heartfelt Stamp Set; Pattern Party DSP (retired); Basic White & Basic Black CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Real Red Blend Markers; Glossy Red Dot (pretty sure this is leftover from a Christmas Paper Pumpkin. And It might be Cherry Cobbler really, now that I look closely, lol); #FusionAtTheMovies. ![]() Pumpkin Club May 28! Did you check out your April Pumpkin kit yet?

![]() Wow! Time Out Challenge #213 has the perfect theme for us - "on vacation!" Well, OF COURSE I have to do something beachy - we just got back from Maui 3 weeks ago! I do also love mountain vacations - Banff Springs, anyone?? But our annual trek to Maui is always a total reset for us, I have to say. The ocean calls us, lol. I was delighted today to combine my beloved Paradise Palms with the awesome background-building Oceanfront - what a match! I even slipped in a new Deckled Rectangle die for my sentiment - I think I'll be using the heck out of these! What a fun challenge - forever vacation mindset! Paradise Palms & Oceanfront Stamp Sets; Basic White & Crumb Cake CS; Pool Party, Balmy Blue, Crumb Cake, Mango Melody, Soft Suede & Pear Pizzazz Inks; Palms & Deckled Rectangles Dies; Elegant Faceted Gems; #TOC213. ![]() Yum! Hope you like our juicy color challenge this week at Sunday Stamps #283 as much as we do! So I might be seeing things, but I was feeling like I'm seeing a few of our new In Colors in our spread this week, lol, so I am going for it! How about a funny cactus collection? I even pulled in a retired In Color, Seaside Spray, lol. Anyway, I loved the look of these cacti stamped all together that I did it again, and had some fun fussy cutting away - so fun! I can't wait to see your ideas for our colors - come join the fun! Cactus Cuties Stamp Set; Basic White CS; Seaside Spray (retired), Orchid Oasis, Sweet Sorbet, Flirty Flamingo & Starry Sky Inks; Sweet Sorbet Matte Decorative Dots; #SSC283. ![]() We have a fabulous code word at this week's Addicted to CAS #219 - "friendship!" Browsing through my sets for a good "friend" sentiment, I came across Bamboo Beauty - definitely a set I don't use enough! Now, how to keep it CAS? Hopefully this fits the bill, while keeping some soft bamboo colors! I got away with only stamping and fussy cutting one bamboo pole, and just snipping it in half for some extra stems. One little foliage sprig finishes it off! I couldn't resist a few Faux Sea Glass shapes for a tiny bit of extra detail! Bamboo Beauty Stamp Set; Basic White & Soft Sea Foam CS; Early Espresso, Crumb Cake & Sot Sea Foam Inks; Banners Pick a Punch; Faux Sea Glass Shapes; #ATC219! ![]() Critter Class 2022! You KNOW we have to have another critter class - I just can't stay away from them! Class will feature 5 cards and envelopes all about our favorite cuties (and maybe even an new catty visitor, lol) for all occasions! Class includes all supplies needed (bring your own fave snips and adhesive) snacks and drinks, and a special gift from me, all for $25! This class can also be FREE with your order of $30 or more! Class is on for Saturday, May 14 at 2 PM! RSVP now to save your spot! ![]() Another lovely combo for us this week at Fusion's Blue Butterflies challenge! I poked around a bit, but I don't think today is a butterfly day for me, lol. I settled on Oceanfront, so I could get in some blues, at least! This is a rare set for me - one with no sentiments! But I couldn't let the scene building features pass me by, lol. I borrowed some birds from On the Horizon, and this sentiment from Bottled Happiness. It's a tongue-in-cheek pun for that set, but I hear it totally differently with this calm ocean scene! Oceanfront, On the Horizon & Bottled Happiness Stamp Sets; Basic White & Misty Moonlight CS; Crumb Cake, Misty Moonlight, Pool Party, Old Olive & Early Espresso Inks; Timeworn Type EF; Rustic Metallic Dots; #FusionBlueButterflies. ![]() Critter Class 2022!

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! Cup of Tea Stamp Set; Tea Boutique DSP; Basic White & Sweet Sorbet CS; Sweet Sorbet & Granny Apple Green Inks; Teacup & Stitched Shapes (retired) Dies; White Baker's Twine; Iridescent Rhinestones; #AYSI274. ![]() Critter Class 2022!

Today I decided to do one more farewell post, I have so enjoyed all the details in Birds & Branches! I couldn't resist two-step stamping this little pretty on her nest, with a few eggs - simple and quick, even with the dies! I snuck in this happy little sentiment from Many Messages - I'm sorry to see this one go, too - such a fun tag die plate for it! I'm all about the possibilities! Birds & Branches & Many Messages Stamp Sets; Basic White, Pear Pizzazz & Crumb Cake CS; Crumb Cake, Pear Pizzazz, SO Saffron, Pool Party & Early Espresso Inks; Birds & More & Messages Dies; Resin Dots (retired); #TOC212. ![]() Yay! It's tic-tac-toe time again at this week's Retro Rubber #181! I'm adding a sentiment focus for SU Only #300, too! After a quick study, I decided to go with the left-hand column of our grid - watercolor - flowers - diecut - then it was time to pick the stamp set! 2019's Remarkable You continues to be one of my fave flower sets - the sweet spray of leaves, and the gorgeous blowsy flower choices just speak to me! The bonus is the lovely large sentiment, and the perfect base for watercoloring! Bring on the Water Painters! I found this die shape for the sentiment, and for a bonus, FINALLY broke in my Stitched Greenery Die for the background - good times! I can't wait to see what YOU make of our challenges this week - meet you there! Remarkable You Stamp Set (retired 2019); Basic White & Pool Party CS; Memento Tuxedo Black, Pear Pizzazz & Calypso Coral Inks; Water Painters; Stitched Greenery & Hippo & Friends Dies; Silver Epoxy Essentials; #RRCB181; #SUOC300. ![]() Pumpkin Club April 30!

Time for another new-to-me challenge! As You Like It would like us to show our favorite floral or cute stamp - I'm in! Now, I think I'm normally a "cute" girl - me and my critters! However today, I'm going floral, because I have an awesome new stamp set to play with! This is a little simple pass at our new Bottled Happiness set, and I think it's adorable! It comes bundled with a bottle punch, though I didn't use it today - I'm all about the stamp, ink and paper on this one! The two step flower posy for the bottle fits either one, and I actually went over the flower centers with a Daffodil Delight marker to pull in a third color - how do you like our bright new Sweet Sorbet?? Anyway, such a fun time deciding just how to pull this one together - simple and sweet! Bottled Happiness Stamp Set; Basic White & Pear Pizzazz CS; Pool Party, Memento Tuxedo Black, Sweet Sorbet & Pear Pizzazz Inks; Daffodil Delight Stamp-n-Write Marker; Pear Pizzazz Cotton Ribbon; #AYLIFloral. ![]() Pumpkin Club April 30!

It went too fast! It does give me a chance to do a farewell feature to the beautiful Sailing Home bundle, though. I couldn't resist adding in some of the oh-so-yummy DSP from Waves of the Ocean - the colors are perfect! I chose the sentiment that I have often reflected on, and couldn't resist a little splash of my fave seaweed die that in this this set, too - so cute with all our fishy sets! I had to add a few Waves Rhinestones, too - you know the ocean sparkles! I can't wait to see YOUR projects in our luscious blues this round - meet you there!
