![]() OK, we're going straight for the big one - Cardz 4 Guyz #315 wants a Valentine for a guy! So, I'm all done with pink and red for this year, lol. So let's try carrots instead! I so love our Sale-a-Bration set, Thanks a Bunch, so much! We just don't have anything else like it, and it's so FUN! I decided it was perfect for a bit of vegetable love, lol. I built three grand carrots with Mango Melody and Pumpkin Pie, and gave them some Granny Apple Green leaves. A Granny Apple love banner was perfect across the bottom, and I finished with a few of the lighter Old Olive Matte Decorative Dots - just right! This so makes me giggle!

![]() Lol, we have ANOTHER "love is in the air" theme going - this time at Shopping Our Stash #489! I went for a classic Valentine this time, lol, and couldn't resist pulling in my still-favorite heart from 2012's PS I Love You - so much cuteness in this set! I did a stamped-all-over background first in some Val-Day colors, then popped up a Real Red one with my sentiment. So glad I still have both these punches, too, lol. I finished with a few Resin Hearts that have been around for who knows HOW long!

Just in case, I decided to check my stack of new sets for any "love" sentiments - turns out, there's an awesome one in the Picturesque set! So excited to break this one in, lol. I decided to set up a background with another sheet of Enjoy the Journey DSP, since it's still on my desk from yesterday! Next I cut a stamping layer using the Deckled Rectangle dies and set up my basic scene. Can't wait to play with this in other colors, too! I decided to fussy cut the top layer so I could add more dimension, and I set up my sentiment in a little custom Deckle box. Looking over a vista like this would definitely bring love to mind for me!

I have a quite a few current critter sets to choose from, but after a quick review, I wasn't sure how many were prime "pet" material, lol. I know there are pet pigs and hedgies out there, but just in case, I checked the Shelves of Retirement! I quickly came across 2019's Hey Love set (which I got for the gorilla, lol) and realized I don't think I've ever stamped that little hamster! Say it isn't so! So he had to come out for this one, and I chose a cute "luv ya" from my newly arrived Conversation Bubbles bundle - perfect for each other!

One of my favorite "love" quotes is this sentiment from our still-cute Whale Done set. And since I have still carefully hoarded all the original elements of this suite (this DSP is in my top 5 faves of ALL TIME, lol) I went with some fussy cut turtles instead of the handsome whales. Did I say I love this paper? I am smitten all over again every time I spot it in my retired bin, and I even still have the sequins - love the color assortment! I set up a partial ocean floor scene for my chosen turtles to swim out of, and two-toned my sentiment at the last second. Love these guys!

I have quite a few new goodies to choose from, too! I decided to go with the new and awesome Taco Fiesta set today - it needed some ink to get warmed up! I focused on the cute chilis this round, and used the tiny one to make a background pattern, while I gave the bigger one un lindo bigote! (That's a cute mustache, to you, lol!) I floated my pair of hot chilis on a pretty heart, but I think I should have gone up one more size so it would show better, hm... And I snuck in a little sombrero on my sentiment - love it!

Class is on for Saturday, January 14, at 2 pm! RSVP today to save your spot! ![]() This should be fun! If You Give a Crafter a Cookie #176 is kicking off the new year with a new take on the challenges - they'll be all about color for the whole year! We're starting out on RED! This is a fun color idea - I was trying to think when I have ever designed a card that focuses on only one color, and I'm not sure it's happened too often, lol. I riffled through my stack of new stamp sets, and quickly pulled out the amazing Watercolor World. That could look cool in red! Hopefully not too war games, lol, and to cinch the deal I pulled in our new Happy Labels, which you can also get bundled with a new label punch. Which I totally didn't use today, have to remember next time, lol. I heat-embossed the sentiment in White on a Real Red strip, that I made into a little map pointer. I think I have hubby's Valentine Day card ready to go!

Today I couldn't resist (do I ever??) hitting our new man suite, He's All That! Besides a fabulous stamp set (with fabulous dies!) there's also the paper! This is the tiniest hint of the He's the Man DSP pack, which includes two 12 x 12 sheets of manly diecut images - I featured TWO on my card today! The torn "spiral bound" scrap in the background is one, and the other is the "never lost" medallion - can't wait to give this card to hubby! I didn't actually do any stamping on the front, but there's an extra message on the inside that goes perfectly! I am smitten with this suite!

I hope this enough "heart," lol, because I immediately thought of my newly-arrived For The Record stamp set! I have been itching to ink this one up! Such a simple image, but SO effective heat-embossed in clear on black! I did the center on a separate scrap of white so I could color in that little heart! So fun, and our Layering Circles dies are just the ticket for this beauty! For The Record Stamp Set; Basic White, Real Red & Basic Black CS; Memento Tuxedo Black & Versamark Inks; Clear EP; Real Red Blends Marker; Layering Circles Dies; #ATC213. ![]() Ah ha! Time Out Challenges #205 would like us to start thinking "love," lol - no problem! OK, I couldn't resist using one of the options with our latest truck stamp, Best Delivery. I can just see this cutie speeding along to get to the church on time! Since I paired it with our super-cute Sweet Talk DSP, I dressed up the truck in Real Red details, and piled on the hearts - love is headed your way!
