![]() A very gorgeous theme this week at Less is More #356 - silhouette! Oddly enough, this challenge is perfectly timed to take advantage of another sneaky peek! I just received my giveaway set of Amazing Silhouettes from our On Stage @Home event - a sweet little number coming out in our Spring Mini Catalog. I'm not sure I would have actually purchased this one (shhh!) but now that it's here, I am fascinated by the effects I can get by playing around with daubers! Today I played with three shades of green, but next time I can't wait to add heat embossing to the mix! And how do you like the new Brushed Brass Butterflies? I wasn't sure about those either, but now I love them, too! Amazing Silhouettes (JJ Spring Mini 2022) & Tasteful Touches Stamp Sets; Basic White CS; Early Espresso, Soft Sea Foam, Pear Pizzazz & Mossy Meadow Inks; Sponge Daubers; Brushed Brass Butterflies; #LIM356. ![]() Pumpkin Club November 27!

![]() Wow, lol, Addicted to CAS #210 is really on a roll with me lately - circles are a favorite design element of mine! I decided to browse the retired shelves today for a fun circle, and look what I found! 2019's Lemon Zest set is still one of my faves, lol, and these re the perfect refreshing circles to roll out for this challenge! I tried to keep it fairly CAS, but I couldn't resist a tiny bit of layering to show off a retired color, too, I so miss Lemon Lime Twist, sigh...

Yay! So, the only gnome set I have is last year's Gnome For The Holidays, a real cutie, and I hope we get more some day soon! This one DOES include this cute little non-holiday gnome-ism, too, so I had to go for it! It has become the vehicle for me FINALLY breaking down and cutting into my precious birch sheets from our SAB Peaceful Prints pack - I'm admitting straight out I almost let my paper-hoarder's instincts take over for this one! A narrow escape has been achieved, lol. Hopefully the little snowflakes on the hat don't look TOO Christmas!

Cupcake Inspirations #531 has a scrumptious color challenge for us this week! It was pretty hard to tear my mind off those gorgeous cupcakes, but I got a good boost when I remembered this perfect chocolatey woodgrain sheet from my Beauty of the Earth DSP pack. Yay! The woodgrain made me think of leaves, so of course the stitched beauties in Love of Leaves had to come out to play, too. I even found some Pool Party twine for my tag! Still pretty yummy, in my book!

Retro Rubber #170 has a perfect "fallin' for Autumn" theme going this week - great timing! I couldn't resist pulling out my old Coffee Cafe and Merry Cafe combo for this one - still one of my all-time favorite sets! I also still had some Painted Autumn DSP to go with, so I made a fancy latte cup with it this round, lol. I'm starting feel thirsty now...

I knew I wanted to play with my Love of Leaves bundle for this one - especially because the dies have those detail insets that just add the pretty stitch lines.! I broke out my fave Fall colors, Cajun Craze, Pumpkin Pie and Crushed Curry, and went to town! I did a little bit of sponging with daubers direct-to-stamp to see if I could get some blending going - hm, mixed results, but not too terrible for the color-wash style of the stamps! I indulged myself with a few sequins to finish, shhh...

Just in time! I recently spotted the gorgeous Fall-themed sheets in the ever-so-versatile pack of the Beauty of the Earth DSP, and I really wanted to use it for today's card. Which begged the question, why am I not using the coordinating stamp bundle, too?? So out came Beauty of Friendship, for a fun Fall run, lol. Hopefully it's not too busy, but I had some fun doctoring up a two-tone Autumn tree, and choosing this perfect sentiment to go with. A couple of our old copper Leaves Trinkets were the perfect finishing touch!

You know what's sharp in black and white? Penguins! And I have just the set with Penguin Place, which even has this cute "lottle" greeting that I haven't used yet. ("It's like a little except a lot.") I could see sending this to a young nephew of mine for his birthday! I might have gone a little far with this little dotted DSP from the Pattern Party DSP pack - too dark? Well, I like it anyway, lol.

The best of all possibilities! I went browsing for quite a while for this one - I just wanted something to reach out and grab me, lol. I finally landed on 2008's Inspired by Nature - SO love this set. I actually use mostly the grass stems side of this old two-sided combo, but today I wanted to play with my markers, and color up the field flowers side. I used to do this coloring style ALL the time - it really took me back! The only big challenge today was "huffing" a stamp so big, lol.

So, flying bakeware seemed like the perfect theme for me this week, as I'm already plotting my mass holiday baking (dessert buffet and tons of baked goody boxes, lol) and even starting my Costco baking shopping list. No really, dear, I absolutely need 6 boxes of Irish stick butter, and 4 bags of almond flour. Lol. I have him so well-trained now that he comes home saying, I went ahead and got you 2 extra boxes of butter because I think you forgot Thanksgiving comes first. We make such a great team! Anyway, flying baking tools - they dance in my head! I can't wait to see YOUR projects for this sketch - what else can you make fly?
