Another gorgeous theme over at Less is More #455 - Winter Whites! I don't do too many white-on-white cards, but this should be fun! After a little digging, I landed on our still-current and still-gorgeous Poinsettia Petals bundle. I took a look at the dies - I'm not sure that I've ever used all the detail dies on the layered petals - perfect! I couldn't resist adding just one Beaded Pearl embellishment - they were made for this set, and I barely ever used them , lol. I used Smoky Slate for my sentiment - not too off for the white theme! Poinsettia Petals Stamp Set; Basic White CS; Smoky Slate Ink; Poinsettia Dies; Beaded Pearls; #LIM455. Holiday Gifts & Packaging Class, Sunday, Nov 14, 3 PM It's finally here!

Such cute kitty-corner layers at this week's Try Stampin' on Tuesday #532 we have! I KNOW I can make something just right for Thanksgiving for SU Only #288, too! My tried and true Fall combo this year has been the still-stunning Beauty of the Earth DSP with our lovely Pretty Pumpkins bundle. I turned our stampin' sketch sideways, picked my favorite remaining scrap of DSP, and then worked out my die-cut layered pumpkins. Using Gold Foil let me bring in some of our Gilded Gems - yum! I can't wait to see your projects, at BOTH challenges, meet you there!

RSVP today to save your spot! What an amazing Christmas challenge from As You See It #262 - what sums up Christmas for us? WOW! There are so many things I love about Christmas: the tree, the decorations, the FOOD, the gatherings, the stories, even the gifts... But, all these things are a joyous celebration in memorial of one BIG thing - the birth of our Lord, Jesus Christ. As I have grown in fellowship and worship with my brothers and sisters in Christ, and contemplated His impossible model and what it means for me, I realize with joy that ALL are my neighbors, to celebrate with the same joy He does. May His peace rule us, this day and always.

RSVP today to save your spot! What a gorgeous combo over at In{k}spire Me #461 this week - GORGEOUS colors! OK, maybe these colors are a tad unlikely for Christmas, but I HAD to try! I also tried to stay off my Sparkle of the Season bundle - that seems like my go-to for everything these days, lol. But I really needed those pinecones, darn it! Anyway, I started with Evergreen Elegance, when I noticed that two of those pretty pine swags backed together would make a good oval shape. Then I could run the sentiment banner over that. That took care of all my colors except for the Mango, and I thought I'd mix in stars somehow when I finally just broke down and went for the Mango background - I can put stars on that, right? It was a very backwards process for me, lol, as you can see, but not too shabby, if I say so myself! Evergreen Elegance & Sparkle of the Season Stamp Sets; Very Vanilla.

That said, I think I can dip into the Shelves of Retirement and cover both sides of the challenge! I keep 2014's Tap Tap Tap around JUST for the typewriter, lol, and I still have tons of gorgeous paper to pick from in our awesome hostess Pattern Party pack of DSP. I found a "thanks" I could use in our Sweet as a Peach set - I was little surprised we didn't have a simple thanks by itself in SOME set at least! It was fun to make the typewriter pink with my Blends, and I threw on a few Elegant Faceted Gems to finish things off!

RSVP today to save your spot! Oh, here's a fun one! The Sisterhood of Crafters is doing a "wreath" theme this week! This totally gave me a chance to dip back into my Sparkle of the Season Bundle - I still can't get over how versatile this one is! Today's discovery? Yes, there is a second of sheet of dies behind the one on top, lol, how do I keep forgetting that? Especially when that second sheet has the "fall" wreath die base, and some cute extra leaf dies, too. I kept things pretty simple today after that, but I did cut a bunch of leaves to play with. I'd put this wreath o my door any day! Sparkle of the Season Stamp Set; Basic White, Pale Papaya, Crumb Cajun Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie & Cajun Craze CS; Early Espresso & Cajun Craze Inks; Seasonal Swirls Dies; Faux Suede Ribbon; #TSOCWreath. Yay! Retro Rubber #170 has a perfect "fallin' for Autumn" theme going this week - great timing! I couldn't resist pulling out my old Coffee Cafe and Merry Cafe combo for this one - still one of my all-time favorite sets! I also still had some Painted Autumn DSP to go with, so I made a fancy latte cup with it this round, lol. I'm starting feel thirsty now...

Well, the day has finally arrived: a challenge day dedicated to my FAVORITE color, purple! Let's hear it for Addicted to CAS #209! One of my newer-to-me sets that I haven't gotten enough time with yet is To The Moon. Such pretty images, and the sentiments are equally celestial, lol. What always catches my eye is when there's a mix of fonts in the sentiments, I feel like it adds so much versatility! So I love how the phrases for this set look, a pretty Serif mixed with a more organic scripty one. Love it! And I'd love to see a Blackberry Bliss moon, wouldn't you? To The Moon Stamp Set; Basic White CS; Blackberry Bliss Ink; Purple Sequins; #ATC208. Woo hoo! I am so thrilled to play at this week's Hand Stamped Sentiments #376 for my very first challenge as a team member! As soon as I saw this gorgeous inspiration pic, I knew I wanted to pull in the lovely Painted Christmas DSP - but do I have a deer that would work? Of course! I still have Nature's Beauty to choose from, and even though she's a doe instead of a stag, I'm fine with that, lol. I'm still having fun playing with all the great dies in our Seasonal Labels dies, too, so of course I had to pull in those sets, too. I so love the finished look! I can't wait to see YOUR projects for this beauty of an inspiration - meet you at the challenge! Nature's Beauty, Christmas Season & Christmas to Remember Stamp Sets; Painted Christmas DSP; Basic White, Evening Evergreen, Soft Succulent & Pool Party CS; Memento Tuxedo Black, Evening Evergreen & Soft Succulent Inks; Crumb Cake Blends Marker; Seasonal Labels Dies; Evening Evergreen Twine; Silver Glitter Gems; #HSS376. Yay! It's already November 1, so we have a new challenge out at Sparkles Christmas Challenge #130 for you - presents! I found a set or two with presents that I like - cookie presents being at the top of the list, but then I spotted my So Santa set - I'm not just sure if I've used this cute-as-a-candy-cane scooter image before! Certainly not recently! So "Santa Scooter" it is! I dithered for about a second wondering if I should do the scooter in green, but hey, the sleigh's red, too, right? I love this little present pack on his back - that's Santa! Getting 'er done! I can't wait to see YOUR presents in action - meet you at the challenge!
