![]() Oh YES! Time for another Mix Up challenge at Try Stampin' on Tuesday #399! Use the sketch, use the inspiration, use BOTH - whatever, just use your IMAGINATION! I couldn't look at these beautiful pics and NOT think of our gorgeous new Painted Seasons DSP - so nice to be able to pick this paper up for FREE during Sale-A-Bration! I decided to try out our new More than Words set, too, for this lovely sentiment - it says "looks beautiful on you" inside! I love when we have sentiments in pairs like this so we can put something inside, too! So what caught YOUR eye? I can't wait to check it out over at the challenge!

![]() VERY cool, As You See It #195 has a fun sketch for us they're calling "all askew" - I totally get it, lol! Even though I used it in class, I don't feel like I have used my awesome Sale-A-Bration set Home to Roost enough! Doesn't this handsome guy deserve to strut?? So out he came for this fun topsy-turvy sketch! I chose some woodgrain for the background, then stamped up a little block of "tall grass" that comes with the rooster for the other layer. The handsome guy is perfect for our Blends Markers, I think, and just a few sequins to brighten up the edges. Welcome to the farm! Home to Roost Stamp Set; Wood Textures DSP; Whisper White, Sahara Sand & So Saffron CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Cherry Cobbler, Mango Melody, Pumpkin Pie, Cajun Craze & Bermuda Bay Blends Markers; Stitched Framelits; Gold Sequins; #AYSI195. ![]() Man Cards 2019 Yay!

I tell you, these grids are getting seriously fun! So today my eye went straight to that "Nature" in the middle, and ran straight for Rooted in Nature. From there I worked on the horizontal (Embellishment-Nature-Layers) but I've also realized I have a few other elements from the grid, too, like "green" and "rectangle," lol. I have a prediction that some fine day soon I'll actually cover an entire grid - look out, lol. Anyway, I have wanted to float this lovely sentiment over the big leaf in this set for quite some time, and I took my colors from the DSP, Nature's Poem, per usual. I so love these leaf stamps, just gorgeous! So, I'll be haunting the challenge to see YOUR creations - come play with us! Rooted in Nature Stamp Set; Nature's Poem DSP; Whisper White & Tranquil Tide CS; Tranquil Tide & Cajun Craze Inks; Nature's Roots Framelits; Leaves Trinket; #JOSTTT003. ![]() Yay! Another tic-tac-toe challenge, this time from Retro Rubber #104! Super fun! I'm going with Butterflies-Green-Textured Embossing - and I know just the set I want to use! 2009's God's Beauty is actually currently in my for sale box (only $5 if you're interested!) but I have always loved the butterfly in this set, along with the Emerson quote! I feel like the butterfly is so realistic, and it's so easy to color while keeping that butterfly detail. I did a nice Layered Leaves background, and covered it in speckle from Waterfront - somehow my spritzers seem to have walked away - time to check hubby's work bench I think, lol. Anyway, I'm super happy with this card, and reminded again how much I love this set! God's Beauty (retired 2009) and Waterfront Stamp Sets; Soft Sea Foam, Old Olive & Whisper White CS; Memento Tuxedo Black & Soft Sea Foam Inks; Old Olive, Mango Melody & Pumpkin Pie Blends Markers; Layered Leaves DEF; Glitter Dots in Old Olive; #RR104. ![]() Pumpkin Club Feb 23!

Speaking of landscapes, this seems like the perfect sketch to show off my Sale-A-Bration set, By the Bay - I can just smell the ocean! The scene reminds me so much of trips to Nova Scotia, through little seaside towns. I had some fun playing with my aqua-painter for a soft watercolor effect in my coloring. I think this path would definitely lead to happiness for me, lol, along with the amazing view! I hope you're planning on joining us - I can't wait to see your creations over at the challenge! By the Bay Stamp Set; Whisper White, Crumb Cake & Mossy Meadow CS; Memento Tuxedo Black, Pool Party, Mossy Meadow, Cajun Craze, Sahara Sand, Gray Granite & Crumb Cake Inks; Aqua-Painter; Old Olive Sheer Ribbon; Old Olive Glimmer Dots; #TSOT396. ![]() We're bringing the romance with our sketch this week at Sunday Stamps #198! I of course had to pull in another shape for my card - you knew I would do that, right? I have been wanting to ink up my pretty teapot in Tea Together in the worst way, and I finally got my Tea Time Framelits from Sale-a-Bration, too - yay! I did some coloring with my Blends Markers, and even tried for some shading on the pot - not too terrible, lol. I pulled in a sentiment from Best Birds - needed something that would fit the space I had! So what do YOU have for us?? I can't wait to see what you've got over at the challenge! Tea Together & Best Birds Stamp Sets; Floral Romance DSP; Whisper White & Calypso Coral CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Calypso Coral, Granny Apple Green, Mango Melody & Pool Party Blends Markers; Tea Time Framelits; Basic Jewel Pearls; #SSC198. ![]() Oo, check out the lovely flourish at this week's In{k}spire Me #385! I wasn't feeling the color challenge that went with the sketch this time, but this lovely swoosh reminded me of my new Wonderful Romance set - the prettiest florals to come our way in a while! Even more amazing are the gorgeous framelits that go with - detailed cuts for all the images, plus some borders, textures and extra shapes - over the top, as always, lol. I went with some pretty Spring colors today, in honor of all the sprouts coming up in my garden right now - while there's been polar vortex everywhere else, this has been prime planting season here in AZ! So excited for the new growing season, and glad to have this fresh new set to celebrate! Wonderful Romance Stamp Set; Whisper White, Soft Sea Foam & Naturals White CS; Crumb Cake, Pear Pizzazz, Soft Sea Foam & Calypso Coral CS; Aqua-painter; Layering Ovals & Wonderful Floral Framelits; Calypso Coral 1/8" Organdy Ribbon (retired); Basic Jewel Pearls; #IM385. ![]() As You See It #192 has an exciting theme this week - metallics! Time to shine! I might actually have gone a bit overboard with my metallics idea today, lol - who knew I had so many colors of foils?? I wanted to do something pretty abstract, and make all different rectangles with our amazing Rectangle Stitched Framelits. I played around with arranging them so there was loose geometry going on, and then I popped on this sentiment from Flowering Desert. I few Faceted Dots, and a couple sprigs, and I'm all done! Yes, the only reason I have the sprigs is so I had something I could do on the envelope, too, lol. Flowering Desert Stamp Set; Red, Silver, Black, Gold, Champagne & Copper Foil; Whisper White CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Rectangle Stitched Framelits; Faceted Dots in Black; #AYSI192. ![]() Good times ahead - check out our fun sketch at Try Stampin' on Tuesday #392, love the big borders! I cheated a little on the square shape, though, and floated a big square on my standard card base. To make up for it, I DID manage to slip in the secondary metallics challenge - something I almost NEVER pull off, lol. I'll be honest, too, today is the first day I even noticed this sentiment in Love You to Pieces - I'm always stuck on the "keeping me together" one! I liked this narrower one under my square... So, what will YOU create?? See you over at the challenge! Love You to Pieces Stamp Set; Twinkle Twinkle DSP; Whisper White, Smoky Slate, Pool Party, Soft Sea Foam, Petal Pink & Silver Metallic CS; Night of Navy Ink; Puzzle Pieces Thinlits; Silver Sequins; #TSOT392. ![]() Pumpkin Club Jan 26!

Wowza! In honor of their suggested butterfly theme, I pulled out my Butterfly gala - fast becoming a go-to for me, I don't know what's wrong with me, lol. I also snagged my Botanical Butterflies DSP for some background detail. I followed the sketch pretty well, for the most part, and added a few popped up butterflies to pull the color over the black and white layer. And yes, I'm actually using Grapefruit Grove - amazing!! Lol. Can you see my tiny little antennae made with Black Metallic Thread on my butterflies? Cool trick and super easy to stick to a glue dot on the back! Congrats to Fusion - here's to another 5 years! Butterfly Gala Stamp Set; Botanical Butterflies DSP; Whisper White, Basic Black & Grapefruit Grove CS; Memento Tuxedo Black & Grapefruit Grove Inks; Butterfly Duet Punch; Faceted Dots; #FusionFifthAnniversary. |
