![]() Oh yum - If You Give a Crafter a Cookie #188 has a SERIOUSLY cute cookie coffee cup pic for our inspiration this month - the best kind of "winter wishes!" You KNOW I had to pull out my Merry Cafe set for this one! And these colors are so close to our newest In Colors - it seems like cookie fate to me, lol! I ended up layering two cups so I could get some different combos on there, and I did borrow a snowflake from the Chic Dies, as well. So fun! Kinda craving Starbuck's now, lol. So excited to see such pretty cookies at the challenge!

![]() Such a super cute sketch at this round's AAA Cards #256 - and so many possibilities! For this one, I pulled out my Artistic Mix Decorative Masks, to try my hand at that layered plaid. I think I had maybe mixed results, lol, but I do like the subtle pattern! I did a combo of Pool Party & Lost Lagoon, and then stamped my "hello" from the new Sale-A-Bration Heartfelt Hellos set. I couldn't resist adding a few Pool Party Faceted Gems, lol, but I think I'm still pretty CAS! Heartfelt Hellos Stamp Set; Basic White CS; Pool Party & Lost Lagoon Inks; Artistic Mix Decorative Masks; Pool Party Faceted Gems; #AAA256. ![]() Such a pretty theme at this months Aloha Friday Challenge #6 - "all that glitters is gold!" Since I still have some new sets that need inking up, I decided to break in my Painted Lavender suite today - but I finished with gold details! I chose a simple DSP sheet for my background, then floated this stem and lavender combo over one of our old Gold Hoop Embellishments - I still love these things, lol. I inked up the lavender part in Fresh Freesia and then went over it with a little Blackberry Bliss, too. I added this little sentiment from Perennial Postage as well, and finished with some Gilded Gems - which I ALSO still love! They just have such a heavy gold tone to them, just right with that hoop! Hope this is enough gold to glitter!

I almost went for the dragon, I have to admit, but that all went out the window when I spotted the fortune cookies, lol. I of course had to pull out my Fortunate To Know You set from 2018 - I so love this cutie! I did up some pretty layers with Real Red, Basic White, and a scrap of old Real Red DSP I had, and colored up some cookies to go! I couldn't resist coloring my birthday fortune with red, too, lol. I tied on some Gold Cording Trim and finished with a few Gold Sparkle Gems - just right!, So, I managed gold, red, layers and fortune cookies! Not too shabby!

For me, I'm of course going to use NEW stamp sets, lol. This one has the added bonus of also being a new image for me - I've never had a telephone stamp, and I was super excited to fill in this gap in my images! I stamped a totally cute phone in Calypso Coral - and stamped off a word bubble for my simple "hello", too. I floated these over this pretty scalloped sheets from the Lighter Than Air pack - and stamped my phone cord directly on that so I could pop up all my other pieces - I so love to fussy cut, lol. Anyway, I finished with a few Calypso Coral Iridescent Gems - just a touch of sparkle!

That upper left corner pic SO reminded me of my beloved Feels Like Frost DSP - and I'm STILL hoarding some, lol - fancy that! I picked out a Queen Anne's Lace sheet that's just so delicate, and super close to our pic - beautiful! I added this loving sentiment from our new Perennial Postage set, and cut it out with the Countryside Corners Dies for something very calming. I finished with a few Night of Navy details - some Baker's Twine and some Enamel Dots - I love the quiet look of this! I can't wait to see YOUR projects with our mood board - meet you at the challenge!

I decided that today was a "good day" to break in Filled With Happiness, which coordinates with the Modern Oval Punch. So many fun sentiments in this one! I did my background and envelope with this pretty linen sheet from the SAB Softly Stippled pack, and made up my backing Pool Party layer using the new Perennial Postage Dies! Like I said - SO much new stuff to play with, lol. I finished with a few of the SAB Opaque Faceted Gems in Pool Party - just the right touch!

I think I might be going a little TOO obscure for my own take on this one, lol - but I SO wanted to use the fabulous new Beach Day bundle! I just couldn't take it anymore, lol. I figured the guard shack could be a good take on that rectangle, and how "any shape" can I get than two surfboards?? Lol, well, it's a fun beachy scene, anyway, lol. I mixed in some new SAB paper from the Sunny Days pack, and did some fun sand with my Cheery Patterns EF. I even snuck on some old Whale of a Time Sequins!

I haven't played with my It's Science set in a while, and I LOVE coloring these lab glasswares! I made a bright Tahitian Tide background that I stamped all over with bubbles - the overreaction, lol - and then floated my beakers and bottles over that! In addition to my front sentiment, I had one last little pun inside, too, lol - I'm not sure I've ever used either of these stamps yet for this set! So glad for another chance to show off these bright In Colors again, too - I DID warn you!

We're kicking off our stampin' year with this wonderful sketch at As You See It #314! Ahhhh, my two favorite words, "any shape!" Challenge accepted, lol! What a perfect chance to break in the super cute Planted Paradise set - we were given this set for free as part of a recent event, and it had me stumped for a while! There are no sentiments with it, so I matched it with the now-available Heartfelt Hellos, a set you can earn FREE with a $50 purchase during Sale-a-Bration! When a stamp set bogs me down, my first instinct is to go crazy with the color - I think that fixes everything, lol, so I have a colorful array of pretty pots arranged around my bold sentiment. So fun! I can't wait to see YOUR creations with our pretty sketch - meet you at the challenge!
