![]() Here we are with Try Stampin' on Tuesday Tic-Tac-Toe #2! I'm a little nervous - I've never actually played a tic-tac-toe challenge before, shh! I'm using Match the Sketch #218 to help me along, and squeezing in Just Add Ink #398's colors, too! Looking over my playing field, I went for the upper left diagonal: Ribbon-Flowers-Dots - and you KNOW I have to pick dots if it's on there. Once that decision was made, I kinda picked out my best ideas for those elements and plugged everything in to the sketch, using the colors. Wow! It's like following a cake recipe and eating it all before anyone gets home, lol! What fun! I think I conquered my first tic-tac-toe! See you over at TSOT - can't see what YOU choose! Oh So Eclectic Stamp Set; Tutti-Frutti DSP; Whisper White, Sahara Sand & Berry Burst CS; Memento Tuxedo Black, Berry Burst & Sahara Sand Inks; Layering Circles Framelits; Eclectic Layers Thinlits; Sahara and Lace Trim; Banner Triple Punch; Berry Burst Sequins; #TSOT-TTT2; #Mts218; #JAI398. ![]() Bubbles & Raindrops Class March 8 & 10! Time for a focus class: Bubble Over and Sunshine & Rainbows! There's so many fun features to explore for these two suites that we have to make it all about them!

![]() Excited to play at Case This Sketch #260 - we have a big bold sentiment ahead! I think I'll add in Global Design Project #127's Sale-A-Bration theme, too! To get myself started, I decided to pull in my Tutti-Frutti Cards & Envelopes - I've been through about 5 packs of these already, lol. Such great colors! I also wanted to use my Celebrate You thinlits for the big sentiment, which was a shoe-in for the coordinating Amazing You stamp set. We're coming up SAB all over! I've really wanted to try the "amazing" thinlit, with that big swooshy curve - I stacked up 5 of them to really make it pop! Some quick coloring with Stampin' Blends on my flower, and we are good to go! Amazing You Stamp Set; Tutti-Frutti Cards & Envelopes; Basic Black, Calypso Coral & Whisper White CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Calypso Coral & Old Olive Blends; Celebrate You Thinlits; Calypso Coral Enamel Shapes; #CTS260; #GDP127. ![]() Bubbles & Raindrops Class March 8 & 10!

And I think I can even get in the secondary challenge of polka dots with my combo with Retro Rubber #80's dotty challenge, too! Love it! I had fun browsing my retired shelves for some likely dots, I have to admit. I had a little stack going, til I got down to my most-beloved Best of Cluck set, and realized that the little chicken feed stamp could qualify as dots - game over! I stamped the card base around the edges with it (subtle, that's me, lol) and then laid on some dotty DSP scraps I dug out as well, which totally directed my chicken colors. It's a GOOD day when the chickens can come out - hooray!!

I see fussy cutting fury ahead, lol! This card gave me the final push I needed to finally ink up my last On Stage set - Lovely Wishes. So often, SU! GIVES us a stamp set at an event that I think would otherwise go unnoticed and perhaps under-appreciated. When I was devouring the new catty, I skipped right over this set, I'll be honest, lol. But hey, free stamps?? Hello?? Sign me up ( for On Stage, that is!) Turns out this is a lovely and beautifully coordinated set. Every aspect has a two-step opportunity, in a sweet shabby-chic effect. While this card was a lot of work (yes, my thumb DID fall off, but it snaps back in place) I am IN LOVE with the finished card. Thank you, SU!, for saving me from my inattention! Lovely Wishes Stamp Set; Crumb Cake, Pool Party & Whisper White CS; Memento Tuxedo Black, Versamark, Pear Pizzazz, Calypso Coral & So Saffron Inks; Lots of Labels Framelits; Petal Pair EF; Touches of Nature Elements; #CTS254. ![]() Love this bubbly sketch from Match the Sketch #203! What can I find to add an "R" for Just Add Ink #386? The little bubble shapes in the sketch led me to Color Me Happy - such a fun line-art set made just for our new Stampin' Blends! I love paper lanterns, and I've been having a blast coloring them in as I need. As I worked, I realized I was adding a kind of rainbow - that's one "R," and I used a nice wide white jute ribbon for my band - that's 2! I hope this suits - I had some fussy cut fun this morning, too, lol... Color Me Happy Stamp Set; Whisper White, Rich Razzleberry & Basic Black CS; Memento Tuxedo Black & Rich Razzleberry Inks; Cherry Cobbler, Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight & Old Olive Blends; Color Lifter, 1 1/4" White Jute Ribbon; Seaside EF; Basic Jewel Rhinestones; #MTS203; #JAI386. ![]() Pumpkin Club November 25!

I'm combining with this week's colors from Sunday Sketch #165, too! Whew, these were tough colors for me! I finally settled on some bold splashes of a few of them, using my Work of Art Stamp Set, which hasn't come out to play in a while! I originally thought I would use some enamel dots for that detail from the sketch, but then the stack of miscellaneous embellishments fell over on my desk and I spotted these tiny wood flowers I never used - so something fun literally leapt onto this card, lol. Work of Art Stamp Set; Whisper White & Garden Green CS; Memento Tuxedo Black, Elegant Eggplant, Rose Red, Night of Navy & Garden Green Inks; Stitched Shapes Framelits; Burlap Ribbon; Sending Love Embellishments (retired); #AYSI162; #SSC165. ![]() Another gorgeous sketch from Freshly Made Sketches #311! I'm adding in these colors from Color Throwdown #467, too... I haven't used my Jar of Love set in so long - and it's still in my top ten favorite sets! I knew I could totally fit the color challenge into this one, so off I went. I had dig through my DSP stash for some background papers - yes, I still rock my 2010-13 DSP stacks, lol. Once I got past that hurdle, putting together my little "bud jar" was up next. I kept it simple with one stem and flower, but my little splashes of red really pop, I think. Good times again today! Jar of Love Stamp Set; 2010-13 DSP Stacks, Marina Mist & Wild Wasabi (retired); Whisper White CS; Memento Tuxedo Black, Marina Mist, Wild Wasabi & Real Red Inks; Everyday Jars Framelits; Linen Thread; Real Red Enamel Shapes; #FMS311; #CTD467. ![]() LOVE the inspiration pic at this week's Fusion "Autumn Leaves" challenge! The wheels are already turning in my brain! The first thing that grabs me about the pic is of course the COLORS - I'm a total color junkie! I knew I wanted to feature our superb stamp set Colorful Seasons, but could I do these gorgeous hues honor? After a dig through my stash DSP, I decided I could! I have gotten so much use out of the By the Shore DSP set - one of my rare buys JUST for the papers, lol. It made the perfect backdrop for our lovely leaves, which I already knew I wanted to stamp on my fave sheet from Painted Autumn. I SO love how my card came out - never be scared to stamp on DSP! Colorful Seasons Stamp Set; Painted Autumn & By the Shore (retired) DSPs; Very Vanilla & Early Espresso CS; Dapper Denim & Early Espresso Inks; Seasonal Layers Thinlits; Scallop Tag Topper & Corner Rounder Punches; Linen Thread; Gold Sequins; #FusionLeaves. ![]() We have a super fun sketch from this week's Retro Rubber #74 - yay! I love assymetric design, but woo boy, it's a challenge! This one was a stumper for me. Fortunately, I came across my old What's Your Type set (2014-15 AC) and got to play with the handy stripey triangles in there. Rather than building a crazy sentiment with my Type shapes, I opted for my old Warm Words set (2006!) that I used to love punching with our original oval punch. It's just as much fun with our new Layering Ovals framelits, lol, especially when I'm playing with purples and greens - because, yes, I DO giggle the whole time, lol. What's Your Type & Warm Words Stamp Sets (retired); Crumb Cake, Lemon Lime Twist & Whisper White CS; Berry Burst, Lemon Lime Twist & Fresh Fig Inks; Layering Ovals Framelits; Basic Jewel Rhinestones; #RR74. ![]() Holiday Gifts & Packaging 2017 Nov 4!

I'm also going to try my hand at the "Eclipse" technique featured at this week's TGIF #131 - which ties perfectly to What Will You Stamp #140's Letters For You challenge! Wish me luck! Since I haven't done much "eclipse" style work, I decided I need a SHORT word, lol - how about "hi?" I also figured I'd work with some yummy DSP, and I need a break from Halloween and Christmas so Delightful Daisy got to come play! This was a fun sketch to do a DSP display for, and my "hi" just fits inside the circle shape - perfect!
