We're all angles and corners this week at Try Stampin' on Tuesday #384! Today I decided to revisit my beloved Lift Me Up set - I even pulled out some of my carefully hoarded retired Carried Away DSP to go with. Decorating a beautiful soaring hot air balloon never gets old! I used the lovely landscape sheet, and a column of clouds, to set off my bright balloon. I finished with an extra fluffy cloud and my fave sentiment of this set. I can't wait to see what YOU come up with - see you over at the challenge! Lift Me Up Stamp Set; Carried Away DSP (retired); Night of Navy, Whisper White, Poppy Parade, Mango Melody, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Bermuda Bay & Gorgeous Grape CS; Night of Navy Ink; Up & Away Thinlits; Banner Triple Punch; #TSOT384. 2018 Mountainview Presbyterian Holiday Craft Boutique Is that cinnamon rolls I smell?

Time for some festive Fall colors at Fab Friday #150! Hope you can join us! Today for me was all about trying to think of our color challenge in a new way - what to do? After a bit I decided I had so much fun making a Christmas plaid a few days back that I wanted to try it again! How about a Mint Macaron plaid? I say YES! I added some detail stripes with my markers, and popped up a simple "hey" for my sentiment. Totally a fun way to play with color! So, what will YOU come up with?? I can't wait to see you at the challenge!

This set is from a new line of stamp styles for SU! - that they call DistINKtive - the stamps show different opacities in a single image, creating incredible detail!

Global Design Project #159 has a fun theme idea this week - "fall" in love - this could be cool! I think Colorful Seasons is up today - I've been using this set for mostly Spring-y themes, because it has all those pretty blossoms in it, but I have to remember that it has some lovely leaves, too - perfect! I kept it pretty simple with this stark branch and a few leaves, a touch of dimension - I love the look of this - we don't really get the Fall colors here in Scottsdale! Makin' my own this year, lol.

Check out our cute sketch at Try Stampin' on Tuesday #381! Time to break out some pretty borders! I'm slipping in Just Add Ink #429's vellum challenge, too - fun! I decided to dig through my retired paper stash to get started on this one - and guess what? I still have a couple Tutti-Frutti notecards and envelopes! So I pulled out the Tutt-Frutti DSP, too, lol, and added a vellum layer over that! At that point, I started looking for an image that would fit well in the floating square space, and settled on one of our adorable pups from Bella & Friends. I can just see this little rascal tearing around! I hope you have some fun with this playful sketch - see you over at the challenge!

So excited that Hand-Stamped Sentiments #299 has Gorgeous Grape in their color challenge this week - one of my new faves, lol! I also decided to use Freshly Made Sketch #356 to help me along, even though I can't post in time to actually PLAY there, sigh. Shhh... With this colors, I decided I wanted a lot of white space to set them off, and I of course wanted to do something fun with the shapes of the sketch. I eventually ended up on Crafting Forever - love these little scissors and their sentiment! I also featured Gorgeous Grape a little bit more than the other two color, because, well, GORGEOUS! Enjoy!

So, I think it shows - this one was a TOUGH one for me! After an extensive search, I had to admit that I don't think I have a stamp set that has the word "imagine" in it - and I really wanted to use it! So, I built my sentiment today with the gorgeous Brushwork Alphabet - it was quite the job, let me tell you, lol. I wanted this to be about creative imagination, so I next pulled out my Crafting Forever set for the little pot of brushes, and finished with a few paint spatters from Timeless Textures. Whew. The brushes are little closer to the sentiment than I wanted, because right when I was putting in place, the stamp FELL OFF THE BLOCK to the location you see before you - no WAY I was re-doing all those letters, lol! So I made it work - I might actually kind of like it, even, lol...

So, I OF COURSE went straight to Lemon Zest for this card - how not? I have also carefully hoarded my scraps of this citrus sheet from the now-retired Tutti-Frutti DSP, and was able to squeeze out a pretty stripe for the card front, as well as the envelope flap! I still love this set so much, and the zesty colors that go with it - yum!

Time to dive in! I browsed for QUITE a while choosing the stamp set I wanted to use - Then I remembered the wood cut shape in Rooted in Nature, and knew I was set. I could even pull in the pretty DSP from the suite - Nature's Poem is one of my faves! I stamped off my trunk shape so I could add the sentiment straight to it, and it was a breeze to fussy cut - the only shape NOT in the amazing framelit set, lol.

We have a lovely martial sketch this week at Try Stampin' on Tuesday #379 - can't wait to try it in my old high school colors from In{k}spire Me #367! I couldn't shake the "martial" idea once I'd had it, lol, so I ran over and grabbed my retired Badges & Banners set - Why not carry the theme and add a "shield" to go with?? I covered my stripes along the bottom with some DSP strips, added a band of sparkle in the middle and finished with my "shield." this one was quick and quirky, lol - LOVE these colors together!
