Here's a new one on me, lol! Festive Friday #158 has an inspo list for World Collage Day! There are definitely some fun choices! As usual lately, I kept it pretty simple, but I managed to pack in quite a few choices I think! I layered some dotty Bubble Bath DSP over Early Espresso, after tearing the border of the DSP - such a cool look! Then I did up a matching flower from the gorgeous Happiness Abounds bundle from 2023 - I came so late to this set, it still feels very new to me, lol. I also doctored up this pretty banner for the birthday sentiment, and finished with some Gold Sparkle Gems - just so pretty! So that all got me Brown, Pink, Metallic Elements, Paper Tearing, Flowers and Birthday Sentiment - whew! Happiness Abounds Stamp Set (retired 2023); Bubble Bath DSP; Basic White & Early Espresso CS; Early Espresso Ink; Bubble Bath, Daffodil Delight & Granny Apple Green Blends Markers; Blossoming Happiness & Pretty Pillowbox Dies (both retired); Gold Sparkle Gems; #FF0158.

EEE! Time Out Challenge #262 has the CUTEST photo inspiration for this round - look at all those Disney dogs! This pic SO reminded me of our wonderful Pampered Pets suite from 2022 - I so loved everything about it! I still have a little bit of everything from it, too, so I pulled out all my goodies for this one! I started with a great background from one of the doggy DSP sheets in the Playful Pets pack (there are awesome cat sheets, too, lol) and then added a few supplemental dogs from another sheet while I was at it! Based on the cute bag, I pulled some scraps from my old Plaid Tidings DSP pack, too, for a little trim, and the envelope. Finally, I couldn't resist a little dog bone trinket to finish things off - the perfect doggy treat!

I'm LOVING our layered landscape sketch this round at Hand Stamped Sentiments #437! Today I felt like building a little beach scene using our super fun Beach Day bundle - I am so thrilled by the adorable images in this one! Let's me get my coloring on, too, lol. Anyway, I went hunting for some likely DSP scraps for the bottom detail of the sketch, then went to town with my life guard shack and surf board. I finally got to build the little palm tree from the dies, too - my fave palm tree so far, I swear, lol. I couldn't resist finishing with some Whale of a Time Sequins, too - those little seashells are perfect! I can't wait to see YOUR beautiful creations for this one, too - meet you at the challenge!

Oh gosh, I'm starting to have second thoughts about the challenge I issued for us at this round's As You See It #322 - "The color I use the least is..." What was I thinking?? First up, I had to figure out which color it is, and I even had a little method for it! The winner is Basic Gray, because I can tell I'm still working on my original pack of this CS, most of which is still in the hanging folder, along with the full complement of last year's DSP sheets for it, AND even the sheet I punched the folder tab out of, still otherwise intact. I don't even dislike this color! This is a little embarrassing, lol. Lucky for me, I just received the adorable Hearts & Hugs set - I think walruses are PERFECT for highlighting Basic Gray! I did up a pretty plaid background with one of my DSP sheets, and added some Basic Gray Shimmer Ribbon (I have 4 rolls, unopened. ??? I vaguely remember this came packaged with another color, maybe an old SAB reward?) I colored up my snuggling walruses in Smoky Slate, and added a few of these fancy hearts that are also in the die set - just too cute! I can't wait to see YOUR least used color - meet you at the challenge!

It's tic-tac-toe time again at this round's Retro Rubber #229! This time, I started by picking my categories, and I went with the left column - die cut - distressing - ribbon. I'm not sure why, but my brain was just not feeling any of the others, lol. Then I went stamp shopping! What's something cute I haven't used in a while? I finally made it down to my "food" shelf, lol, and came across 2018's Sweet Cupcake - we have a winner! I remember playing with homemade "embossing paste" for the first time with this set - I even still had the little recipe tacked inside the case, lol. We must have done that for messy class! Anyway, I stuck to inks this time, and went with my beloved purples, too - so cute! Thank goodness the insert for these stamps was numbered, because I totally couldn't remember what order to stamp all the layers in! I can't WAIT to see your projects for this fun round - meet you at the challenge!

I so approve of the choice to celebrate Cinco de Mayo this round at Festive Friday #157! This was a fun one to build - I really dug deep through various retired items to tick more boxes on the inspo list today! I started by scanning my DSP scraps for orange and green - found some great bits in Old Olive and Pumpkin Pie! Then I decided to do a BIG avocado - from 2020's Garden Goodness set, the whole reason I bought this set, lol! It pairs perfectly with our super fun Taco Fiesta set - I don't think I can stamp an avocado of any size without a mustache and a sombrero anymore, lol. Oh, and I found some bunting dies in my old Bonanza Dies, too! So, I was able to get orange, green. enamel dots, avocado, mustache & bunting - wheee!

AAA Birthday #60 would like to see a shaker card this month - love these! I really wanted some color today - I have all these little bags of bright sequins I won in a blog challenge from Pretty Pink Posh still - how to use the green ones? In a guacamole card, of course! I'm super sad about Taco Fiesta making the retiring list this year - this one will definitely have a place of honor on my shelves of retirement! I giggled the whole time I made this card, coloring, shaking and fussy cutting! I think I need some chips tonight now, lol.

I love our dramatic sketch this round at Retro Rubber #228! It felt like a retro critter day today, so I went browsing and heard a little braying, lol. These guys haven't been out in a donkey's age! I floated this party animal over these happy dots from the Lighter Than Air DSP pack, and picked out the darker blue - Azure Afternoon - for my big diagonal band. I even have some Azure Afternoon dots from my Rainbow Pack - woo! I can't wait to see what YOU come up with for our fun sketch - make it Retro (older than one year!) and meet you there!

Such pretty natural colors we have for you this round at Retro Rubber #227! I couldn't help but think of a cute critter dressed up in blue when I thought of these colors, lol. When I did a quick browse for likely candidate, I kept coming back to 2021's Hot Dog set - he has so many cute accessories to color! I ended up staying pretty clean and simple today, but I think I might officially be over my fear of Blueberry Bushel! What a cutie!

So super fun - we want to see what you have for "transport" this round at Make My Monday #222! I couldn't resist going back to my Legendary Ride set - love these choppers! I have also carefully hoarded some of the Ready to Ride DSP that was released with it, lol, and I am still just as smitten with the sheet that has the little biker scenes that we can cut apart and use as backgrounds. I liked this one so much I let it do all the heavy lifting! I did color in my little bike with Pumpkin Pie to match the details, but still so fabulous!
