![]() So excited we're on another Fab Friday - #124 is this sweet color combo! I'm also playing with this cute sketch from Global Design Project #110! So, don't tell Mindy, but I had a tough time with our colors, lol. TWO oranges? Eek! In the end, I went with a big tangerine background (YES, I had to dip into my stash for it, lol) and then focused on fig and pumpkin together - which I LOVE! I decided to play with Merry Cafe today - I would totally drink coffee that came in these colors, lol. See you over at the challenge - can't wait to see YOUR take!

![]() Love the layered elements at this week's Match the Sketch #199! I think I'll try it with these ocean colors from In{k}spire Me #322. Another set that I haven't played with for a while coming up! I love mixing up colors on the Eastern Beauty suite - the medallions just look so amazing! So that's what I did here for my large circle shape, but then it was took pretty to cover up, lol, so I re-ordered my layers just a tiny bit! Shh! Are you distracted from that by my sparkly rhinestones? Lol...

Goodness, this layout nearly stumped me! I couldn't figure out how to make those opposing banners "flow," lol, let alone coordinate them with an image! I finally hit on these wonderful fancy pens from Crafting Forever, and I started thinking to myself how much fun they would be to color with our new Blends (which I totally did!) but I still needed sentiments. Then I hit on Banners For You, and THEN I realized that the dual banner included in there could be cut apart to match the layout here almost perfectly! And the crowd goes wild! It was all up but the coloring by then, lol... Good times!

I decided to go a little smaller, a 4 1/4" square card, so it would fit in a standard envelope. This also seemed like a good time to pull out the new Color Me Happy stamp set, which will be coming soon to help you celebrate the new Stampin' Blends! This was a dream to color with the new markers, and I LOVE the new caps - no more jamming in crooked and ruining your tips. The alcohol ink spreads and blends with its usual beautiful ease - perfect for these little blossoms. Good times!

I'm matching it with Try Stampin' on Tuesday #343 for my layout! All these colors were a red flag for me - I was like, how to pick just three?? How to use all five if I can't pick?? It was a quandary I solved with my Thoughtful Banners stamp set - go big or go home could be my subtitle today! These rich colors make for a fun palette, and I mixed in some textures, too - fun and simple! I needed a little bling, too, so I scattered some tiny rhinestones all over the place...

I'm adding in Paper Players #365's colors, too! As I browsed through my stamp shelves, I started thinking how these colors reminded me of fancy butterflies - and wouldn't you know it, we have just the set for that, lol! It's been far too ling since Watercolor Wings has been out for some air - I was happy to oblige! I really wanted to do the larger butterfly for the card, so it took a bit of doing to get everything on there, but I managed. And I was right - good butterfly colors! I can't wait to see you have for us over at Fab Friday - see you there! Watercolor Wings Stamp Set; Very Vanilla, Early Espresso & Crushed Curry CS; Early Espresso, Crushed Curry & Peekaboo Peach Inks; Banners (retired) & Bold Butterfly Framelits; Ruched Ribbon in Peekaboo Peach; Crushed Curry Enamel Shapes; #FabFri123; #PP365. ![]() Christmas 2017 Part 2 Class Oct 21!

RSVP today! ![]() Woo hoo! Another speed challenge from As You See It #160 - and this time in shades of orange! Can I bring the juice in 10 minutes or less?? I started by pulling all the pretty oranges I wanted to use - looking at them all together really made me think of leaves, and Colorful Seasons has a great one that also has a framelit. I gathered the rest of toys (gathering materials doesn't count against my time!) and started the clock! I added in some Memento Tuxedo Black for my line drawings and sentiment, then added some leaf colors. I wanted a bit of dimension, so I also stamped and cut a couple extras to play with. Once assembly was complete, I popped on a few Candy Dots, too. Start to finish time? 4 minutes, 50 seconds! Yes!

RSVP today! ![]() What a fun theme at this week's Fusion Challenge - "sunshine on a cloudy day!" Love the sketch to go with, too... Well, I really wanted to try and cover both ends of this challenge with both the theme and the sketch - and I think I made it! As I browsed my stamp sets for inspiration, my eye got caught on the Pocketful of Sunshine set - that word "sunshine" was a big hook! So I chose a sentiment from there and set about constructing a sun to go with, from Swirly Bird. I was worried it would be too big, but I think I hit on a way to make it work! A giant mix of yellow retired DSP scraps, and I'm all set - good times!

Well, there's no doubt about it - this is the perfect time to pull out my carefully hoarded and still beloved Nice Cuppa suite! It's still got it - SUCH a fun set! I guess I still live in hope that this beauty will somehow come back to us again, sigh... Anyway, I decided to use a more muted sheet from the DSP, and then go all Melon Mambo on the main image - this one's for you, Sarah! Lol, she's such a pink fiend! So much fun to get this set out again, I think it needs to live on my desk for a little bit before I put it away again - you never know when another cuppa will be needed!
