![]() Yay! Cupcake Inspirations #521 has a fab red, white and blue color challenge for us! I couldn't resist pulling out our new cutie again, Measure of Love, for this one. I'll admit, there's a pyramid of cupcakes in the is set, too, that I COULD have used, but I resisted and went with the yummy cherries! I've been buying them for two weeks now at Trader Joe's - even Rainiers, my favorite! Anyway, I had to sneak in just a smidge of Pear Pizzazz, for the stems, but it's barely there, right? So fun to build up the pretty little scale!

![]() I'm so excited to see a color challenge (pale Blue and Yellow) at this week's Less Is More #445 - I don't think that happens too often! I decided to color this little row of poppy stems from Painted Poppies in non-poppy colors, lol. Low key, CAS, but still so sweet! This is my fave image from this whole collection! I naturally paired it with Peaceful Moments, the sentiment set that was originally part of this suite, too. I'm so pleased with the final look, and I'm totally cool with NOT resisting adding a few tiny pale yellow pearls, too, lol.

Now I just need to use the letter "H" somehow for SU Only #278's "initial" challenge! You know, I JUST had my beloved Defining Alphabet and Define Your Life sets out a week or two ago - I think I have another job for them! And since it's all about MY initial, it can be all purple and green, too, lol. I stuck pretty true to the sketch, thanks to my Layering Squares dies, and went for a Pear Pizzazz and Blackberry Bliss combo. I had to stamp off my "H" twice to get it faint enough behind the definition, but I'm really happy with the results! I can't wait to see YOUR signature projects this round, too - meet you at the challenges!

I can't resist calling on my Friends Are Like Seashells suite for this one - so sad this DSP will be gone soon with the end of the Spring Mini Catty!Today I tried out stamping my fancier shells ON different sheets of DSP - I LOVE the texture and depth this adds - I should have embossed these babies, too, darn it! I finished with a few Opal Rounds - love the sheen in these...

Dang, now I can't get this song out of my head after checking out this week's challenge at Retro Rubber #160! Argh! What the song makes me think of is long summer nights, out in the yard with my friends, chasing fireflies in the sprinklers, and racing to the patio for lemonade - those were the best times! And yes, we always tried to have a contest to see if we really could make a lantern out of fireflies in a jar, before we let them go, lol. I had a wired mason jar my Grandpa made for me just for it! So glad I still have my Jar of Love set (from 2016, but didn't retire til 2019!) to take me back! Jar of Love (retired 2019) Stamp Set; Beauty of the Earth DSP; Basic White & Mossy Meadow CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Smoky Slate & Mango Melody Blends; Clear Wink of Stella; Everyday Jars Dies; #RRCB160. ![]() Now here's a theme for summer! Addicted to CAS #199 has a "beach" theme for us! I couldn't resist going back for the Sea Life dies from yesterday, that goes with our new Seascape set. This time I also pulled in our gorgeous Sand & Sea DSP, which will retire at the end of this month. And of course, this beachy sentiment from Friends Are Like Seashells - I'm thrilled with how well all this different elements sing together! Take me to the beach, please! Friends Are Like Seashells Stamp Set; Sand & Sea DSP; Basic White & Sahara Sand CS; Crumb Cake Ink; Sea Life & Tasteful Labels Dies; Elegant Faceted Dots; #ATC199. ![]() We're bringing on the bubbles this week at Try Stampin' on Tuesday #511! I'm going to throw in The Sisterhood of Crafters "Water Water Water" challenge, too - I have just the (new) thing! So excited to unveil our new Seascape set. I didn't quite manage to squeeze in the fabulous dies that go with it, but there are so many fun ocean elements here! Lots of seaweed and fronds for setting the scene, and plenty of cute fishies to add the action, lol. I kept today's card all stamps, ink and paper - That's all you really ever need! Can't wait to see your projects with our fun sketch - meet you at the challenge! Seascape Stamp set; Basic White, Pool Party & Soft Sea Foam CS; Soft Sea Foam, Pool Party, Soft Succulent, Evening Evergreen, Misty Moonlight & Memento Tuxedo Black Inks; Tasteful Labels Dies; Whale of a Time Sequins (retired); #TSOT511; #TSOCWater. ![]() So fun when we get to play our favorites, like in this week's "lucky dip" Less Is More #444 - pick your favorite technique! Even more lucky for me, I JUST received a box of new goodies to play with - a perfect combo! I decided to start with this super cute little rolling suitcase from Sweet Farewell, to show off my fave technique of COLORING - any way, any medium, lol. My very most fave way is with our Blends Markers, as I did today. I did add a layer today, of white on white, so my coloring wouldn't bleed through the card base. And I know it's a LIM no-no, lol, but I couldn't resist some sparkly Glitter Enamel Dots, to go with that snazzy Granny Apple Green suitcase. While it's not really a technique, I think little triples of embellies might be the secret love of my heart, lol.

With a marker challenge in the offing, I knew it would be all about the color today for me, lol, so I went digging for some of my fave retired sheets, to celebrate a sunny, happy day! That's right, it doesn't get much happier than Gingham Gala, lol. I found this pretty bundle of stems in our Dragonfly Garden stamp set - perfect for some coloring!

I really wanted to try for both sides of the challenge today, so I started by going hunting for some small little somethings I could use for that grid layout. Hey, how about Friends Are Like Seashells?? Perfect! And I fell like you could use the colors, too, depending on what ocean you're hunting in, lol. Very fun, and surprisingly quick with the dies!
