Love this columnar sketch at this week's Try Stampin' on Tuesday #305!  I'm adding in Color Throwdown #426, too - great possibilities!
Another set I haven't used in a while is Helping Me Grow - I so adore line drawing stems!  Gorgeous to color, and dramatic as all get-out when fussy cut, lol.  I played with my layers in super old color-stack DSP - it first appeared in our 2010-11 catty, I think.  Yes, sigh, that's how long I've been trying to use it up.  Let's just say it will likely be some years before I feel I can invest in newer DSP color stacks, lol.

Merry Reindeer

This week's Merry Monday #231 challenge is to add a reindeer - I'm so excited to have so many stamp choices for this one, lol!  I think I'll also combine this one with Freshly Made Sketch #271 - just right!
Can you believe I hadn't yet used my Santa's Sleigh reindeer?  Thank goodness I got the chance to ink her up now!  She also wanted to "make a bit of an effort" (yes, we are binge-watching the entire Downton Abbey series right now, lol) so a pretty little wreath and bow is THE accessory for every discerning reindeer!  Still had a bit of This Christmas DSP scrap to use, too - not too shabby for a January Christmas card!
Santa's Sleigh Stamp Set; This Christmas Specialty DSP; Crumb Cake, Cherry Cobbler, Very Vanilla & Garden Green CS; Early Espresso, Garden Green & Cherry Cobbler Inks; Christmas Greetings Thinlits; Santa's Sleigh Framelits; Regals Candy Dots in Garden Green (retired); #MM231; #FMS271.

Oh yes, it's Fab Friday (#104, that is!)  At last!  I hope you'll get a chance to come play with our yummy color challenge this week!  I'm pairing mine with this lovely sketch from Global Design Project #70!
OK, I'm a little nervous that I maybe didn't follow the sketch close enough - yikes!  I just started to get an idea for what elements I wanted to use and that was it, I was trapped on a stampin' train that only went here, lol.  See, I really don't think I use Swirly Bird NEARLY enough, and look, I even was reminded about the awesome speckle-spatter stamp that comes in it - LOVE!  Hope this one slides by the DT, lol - either way, I had fun!
Hope I see you decked out in your colors over at Fab Friday - can't wait!

Oh, look - we're seeing stars at Sunday Stamps Challenge #144!  Exciting, lol!  Now, how to combine it with the "natural elements" challenge at Stamp Ink Paper #82?
How about with acorns?  Even though they're in colors not found in nature, lol.  Hopefully a few wood elements and some linen thread will also help me!  I went and dug out my now-retired Woodgrain background stamp, too - I love this "line art" version...  I do believe this is the first year I've remembered that I can use Acorny Thank You for my Valentines, too!

Check out that flower element in this week's Case This Sketch #204!  Gorgeous!
But of course, I totally can't do a flower now, right?  Yeah, that's how I am, lol.  But how about a nice big slice of cake, with fancy filling and frosting?  Oh, goodie!  Now, I might be a little fixated here, since I'm back on the exercise and virtuous eating wagon again, sigh.  A girl can still dream, though!

When I saw these two challenges, I knew they belonged together, lol - today's match up is In{k}spire Me #283 and Create With Connie & Mary #440!
My new Sending Thoughts just arrived, and I really really REALLY wanted to use the "be still" sentiment - how can I squeeze it in here?  Let's pair it with the gorgeous peony from You've Got This!  I ended up heat embossing it with black to give it a tiny bit more definition, and floating it over some hardwood planks.  Ah, simple but striking.

I'm so excited to be back as a guest designer over at What Will You Stamp #99 - Sunshine Sayings!  I'll be adding in Color Throwdown #425, too!
So, I'm pretty sure I used Sunshine Sayings in LAST week's Color Throw Down, too, lol, so I had to make sure to go with a very different style this time!  I wanted to play a bit with the words (so of course, I only used the one, lol) but I was again reminded of how completely versatile this lovely set is, especially when you throw in the thinlits that go with it!  I was also excited to use my latest discovery again today:  black sequins from our Metallics collection.  I've been so bummed that I burned through my retired black candy dots, and that we don't have a Neutrals Collection in our Enamel Shapes (YET??)  Black sequins to the rescue!  The day is saved!

I love this week's sketch from Try Stampin' on Tuesday #304!
When I first saw this sketch, it didn't occur to me that I'd end up turning it sideways, I swear!  But then an order came in (doesn't it always JUST?!) and I knew I wanted to use something from the amazing Suite Sentiments.  I only just noticed this set a couple weeks ago (crazy, I know, lol) and it's meant to go with quite a few of our lovely new 2017 Occasions sets and suites.  But guess what?  You can use it with some spry old sets, too!  I thought this one was just perfect for our saucy little fox!

It's been quite the week for color challenges, and Global Design Project #69 has one for us, too - lovely!  I'm matching it with this fun layout from Match the Sketch #159 - love that rick-rack element!
I started today's card by browsing my framelits stash for a likely candidate for that rick-rack shape - alas, I didn't seem to have one.  (Although, I just remembered I do on my old Tasteful Trim die - but it's too big, whew!)  I did have my lovely Flourish Thinlits, and I had no trouble at all picturing the long element in silver!  I decided to indulge my purple fetish today, too, and pulled out Elegant Eggplant to go with the Delightful Dijon - yum!  I hunted around for sentiments of the right size for the remaining space, and came across this sweetie from Me = Grateful - just right!

Stamp Ink Paper #81 has an exciting color challenge for us this week - black, white and a pop of color!  I think it will go great with this vertical sketch from Freshly Made Sketch #270!
Black, white and a color pop for some reason made me think of going back to our new Valentine's suite, Sealed With Love.  The DSP for it is just gorgeous, and, conveniently today, is all in Real Red and Whisper White.  Does that make me more red, white and a pop of black?  Oopsy, lol...  Anyway, glad I got to try out the amazing new thinlit incuded with the framelit set that goes with it, too - so much to LOVE about this suite!
