Very nice - Aloha Friday Challenge #10 is for flowers! That's starting to shape up as a real May theme, lol! I decided to pull out my Cheerful Daisies set for this one - I SO don't ink it up enough! I wasn't a huge fan of the DSP that came with it when it was first released, and I think the darker colors it featured kinda threw me, lol. To that end, I'm pulling out bright Spring colors today! I floated everything over this pretty Lemon Lime Twist gingham, and stamped up a daisy trio in Bubble Bath, Lemon Lolly and Pool Party - and I love them together! I finished with a few pretty diecut leaves, and Adhesive Flowers that are a little hard to see, hmmm. But still cheery! Cheerful Daisies Stamp Set; Glorious Gingham DSP (retired); Basic White & Basic Beige CS; Memento Tuxedo Black, Bubble Bath, Lemon Lolly, Pool Party & Early Espresso Inks; Cheerful Daisies Dies; Adhesive Hearts & Flowers; Lemon Lolly Twine; #AFC10.

We are perfectly layered this round at Sunday Stamps #336! I went crazy, and turned the sketch today, lol - I haven't done this in a while, I don't think! But it turned out to be a great strategy for getting in this gorgeous landscape piece of DSP from my carefully hoarded Enjoy the Journey pack, AND I still had room to get in the good "mountain" sentiment from Greatest Journey to go with it! Winner all around - this is still one of my favorite suites of ALL TIME, lol, can you tell?? I snuck in a little Melon Mambo Cotton Ribbon and some Solid Faceted Gems to finish up! I can't wait to see YOUR lovely projects with our fun sketch - meet you at the challenge! Greatest Journey Stamp Set (retired 2023); Enjoy the Journey DSP (retired); Basic White & Melon Mambo CS; Melon Mambo Ink; Melon Mambo Cotton Ribbon; Melon Mambo Solid Faceted Gems; #SSC336. Just in time for Memorial Day! Cardz 4 Guyz #347 wants to see stars or stripes this round! After some thought, I went for stripes today - not usually a design element that I tend to feature - I'm more of a dots girl, you know? Anyway, THIS stripey sheet from the Countryside Inn pack has dots, too - win win! I need to start using this DSP more anyway, since it carried over to the new catty - not something that happens very often! With all the blue, I felt like this little cluster of fishing lures would be just right, from Just Fishing - still one of my cutest fishing sets ever! I love that all the sentiments fit into the tackle box spaces, too! I remember using these lures and bobber with my Grandpa, they always make me smile to see them! Gone Fishing Stamp Set; Countryside Inn DSP; Basic White & Misty Moonlight CS; Night of Navy, Cherry Cobbler, Smoky Slate, Misty Moonlight & Versamark Inks; White EP; Night of Navy Baker's Twine; Night of Navy Enamel Dot Essentials; #C4G347. We're goin' to the chapel this round at As You See It #324 - for a wedding! I had to really sort through my stamps for this one, because I wanted to keep it ALL current, lol. The Layers of Beauty set is a natural fit, of course, but how to do something a little different? And what sentiment? Happily, inspiration struck, and I thought of heat embossing White on the palest pink we have - Bubble Bath! I couldn't resist the contrast with Lemon Lime Twist, either - so fresh! I also hit on adding just a touch of extra depth, by coloring the largest roses with a Light Bubble Bath blend marker - love the look! I finished with this beautiful sentiment in Something Fancy - a match made in Heaven, so to speak, lol. I can't wait to see YOUR wedding cards this round - meet you at the challenge! Layers of Beauty & Something Fancy Stamp Sets; Basic White, Lemon Lime Twist & Bubble Bath CS; Versamark & Smoky Slate Inks; White EP; Bubble Bath Blend Marker; Something Fancy Dies; Lemon Lime Twist Ribbon; Lemon Lime Twist Tinsel Gems; #AYSI324.

The Male Room #186 is for "planes, trains or automobiles!" I know just what I want to do! This of course totally called for our gorgeous new Adventurous Sky suite - I think this is my fave plane set ever! So much to choose from for the papers, too, and the planes are so easy to dress up or dress down! I stayed pretty Night of Navy today - a little Blender Pen smudging is a wondrous thing, lol. I added one of the pretty and realistic clouds, then did a smudged up plane over it, and floated my sentiment above it all! I even used some of the Industrial Trinkets - this is the etched side, but the reverse is very rivet-like! Next card, lol...

Hah, another new holiday to me - it's Brother's Day at Festive Friday #159! Such a good inspo list for it, too! So, I don't think my card is particularly for a brother, lol, but I picked a few things from the list - more than I thought I would as usual! I took the silver black and red right off the top for my color scheme, then I dug out some old Mini Silver Brads for my sentiment! I got embossing and textured background in one go, using my Metal Plate EF, which goes so great with my "bike" from Legendary Ride! I do like the look of the "chrome" details over my stamped bike! It all just came together on rails! Wheee!

Mmm, it's all about the purple haze this round at Retro Rubber #231! For this one, I knew I needed to go back to our glorious and geometric Tulip Fields! I had some fun playing with stamping and stamping off our colors, as well as off-setting my horizon focus! Fun! I went for a Shaded Spruce windmill to go with, and did some strategic smudging with my Blender Pen, too! I ended up stamping this a few times to get a final that I liked, lol! Let's hear it for Fresh Freesia clouds, too! I can't wait to see YOUR retro and purple projects this round - make sure to mention the age of your stamp! Meet you at the challenge!

We're all about the puppy love this round at Make My Monday #226! I decided I needed a doggy Christmas card today - I am ready for the holidays, lol! I went back to my old Sweet Stockings DSP and fussy cut three chummy pups, who all posed together in their holiday finery! I love the Christmas lights sheet in this pack, too, so I made that my background, and diecut all my shapes with the ever-so-versatile Stylish Shapes dies! Some tiny Festive Pearls finishes everything off! I can't wait to see YOUR doggy cards this round - meet you at the challenge!

What super cute star cookies for us to play off of this round at If You Give a Crafter a Cookie #192! I knew right away I wanted to pull out this pretty sheet of stars from our just-retired Bright & Beautiful DSP pack - just what the doctor ordered! I even love all these colors together, lol, though I chose to feature my favorite Berry Burst to go with, today! I did a quick search for a sentiment that fit, and found this one in Ice Cream Swirl - perfect! It fits beautifully in the middle banner die in Nested Essentials, and these tiny stitched stars Give It a Whirl also look awesome! I slipped in one tiny birthday candle for a touch of sparkle, too!

Ah ha - time for a new critter challenge at Critter Crazy #86! Yay! I'm back again at my awesome stash of Scan-n-Cut critters from my old pack of Zoo Crew DSP - so hard to resist! These little piping frogs, for example, daunted even MY love for fussy cutting, so it was amazing that the machine pulled them all out for me! There were so many, I decided to put together a quintet! Super cute with them all facing all different ways, too - and of course playing the birthday song! Just love it!
