 Well, the day has finally arrived - I'm so sad that this is Case This Sketch #405 - a throwback to their early sketch #25, and their final challenge. I'll miss them! I decided to turn those tab shapes into dragonflies, lol, and say a fond farewell of thanks. I used the very last of my DSP sheets that had the pretty colored dragonflies to punch out, and managed a sweet array of colors! I kept things fairly simple, really, added a couple of the smaller ones for my embellishments, and finished with this pretty sentiment. Thanks, CTS, for some great and inspiring challenges - best of luck! Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set; Dandy Garden DSP; Whisper White CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Dragonflies Punch; #CTS405.

 Oo, I'm loving these rosy colors at this week's In{k}spire Me #441! And the sketch is pretty awesome, too! Can you tell I'm on a "ink up the toys" kick?? Lol. Today belongs to our new Kangaroo & Company set, that also pairs with some amazing dies. What I love about this one is that the kangaroo die actually cuts a little slit so you can tuck things into the pouch - a joey, notes, hearts - all so cute! I opted for this pretty hello bouquet today, but I can't wait to try some interactive cards with this one, too! The bouquet let me sneak in a tiny touch of Just Jade on the leaves, for my extra color to add to the challenge! Kangaroo & Company Stamp Set; Merry Merlot DSP; Smoky Slate, Whisper White & Rococo Rose CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Smoky Slate, Rococo Rose & Just Jade Blends Markers; Merry Merlot Stamp-n-Write Marker; Kangaroo Dies; Silver Pearls; #IM441.   Our cool pastels at this week's Fab Friday #206 are so pretty - I see Spring ahead! I couldn't resist finally taking out our new Hey Birthday Chick set, especially so I could try out the awesome dies you can get starting Feb 4 as part of a special promotion! There's even been a revive of our older Hey, Chick set, and THAT has dies, too! Keep an eye peeled for the announcement! I picked this lazy hen, floating under her balloon, as the perfect chance to show off all our colors - inside it says, "You're still a Spring Chicken!" So cute! So, I can't wait to see YOUR creations - meet you at the challenge!

Check out this dreamy inspiration pic at this week's Fusion Flowers! That sketch is pretty dreamy, too! I couldn't resist taking a crack at that pretty bouquet to go on my sketch! Our new Wrapped Bouquet set has lots of wispy stems to go with that look pretty similar to that inspiration, so I had to give it a go! It takes a lot for me to try new flowers these days - we have SO MANY gorgeous sets, but I couldn't resist that do-it-yourself newsprint wrap - so cool! There's an all-in-one image, too, but you know me and new toys, lol... I had a little coloring in for my blooms, and added some extra leaf stems - I really like how it came out!

It's all about celebrating winter at this week's Retro Rubber #150! So glad they're back from Christmas break! My favorite all-time winter scene maker is 2014's White Christmas - I love the pretty line art, and all the extra little details you can or incorporate into your little setting - so fun! I also still have 2016's Mountain Adventure, which has JUST the right sentiment, lol, so I ended up adding that, too. I built a simple snowy scene, with vary sparse color, and floated it all over a panel from my still-beloved Feels Like Frost DSP - just right for Winter!

Bring on the shapes with us this week at Try Stampin' on Tuesday #491! Ah, so nice to see my two favorite little words - "any shape!" I went all out and did some snail shapes, lol, from our new Snailed It suite! These guys are the cutest (and gals, I suppose, check out those eyelashes!) and there's even some great ones to fussy cut from the DSP that goes with, like these two on today's card! I went with a nice bold contrast in my colors, and even finally used my Double Oval punch - woo hoo! I can't wait to see what YOU come up with - meet you at the challenge!

The Library Challenge #75 is finally back, and what a beautiful cover they have for us with A Room With a View! Oh gosh, i LOVE this cover! Big stem-y flowers, lots of purple - {swoon!} I really thought I'd be re-creating it, too, but I couldn't stop thinking about my new Welcoming Window set, sigh. I know I won't have so many chances to trot this beauty out, so I have to seize them when I can, lol! I kept things fairly simple for its first time out, a pretty stamped brick background behind the basic shuttered window with a pot of flowers - at least I made the flower colors match! And I can't wait to play with this one more!

Check out our toasty warm colors this week at Sunday Stamps #249! The more I looked at our colors, the more I started thinking Valentine's - reds and pinks just send me in that direction I guess! But I didn't get any of our OVERTLY Valentine's sets - just a couple that had some possibilities included, lol. Like the gorgeous Punch Party, a Sale-A-Bration Hostess set. So many punch pals to go with! I chose this little cuties that coordinates with our Rectangular Postage Stamp punch - I'm SO not using it enough! I decided to make a little set of stamps for the day of romance - not too mushy for me - yay! So what will you do with our gorgeous colors this week? I can't wait to see YOUR projects, over at the challenge!

Lovely, Addicted to CAS #189 has another great code word for us this week - "snow!" Having just made it back from Maui in one piece, it's a little tough for me to switch gears back to the Winter themes still playing out on the blogs, lol. But I dug deep, and combined a few things for a simple snowy scene after my own heart! A little strip of my fave Trimming The Town DSP started me off, with a lovely foal diecut tree using the Pine Woods dies, and this warm sentiment from Merry Moose. I finished everything off with a little scatter of Adhesive Backed Snowflakes - I love the shimmer they add! I think I've put the island vibe behind me, sigh...

Wow, this is a cool theme: Time Out Challenges # 179 is calling us out to be "you" - awesome! I had to spend some time thinking about this one - there's just so much ME these days, lol. All this enforced at-home time is really setting me up to explore all my old faves, and dabble in a few new ones, too! Then, my latest order arrived - and it was all over! I went ahead and picked up our Handmade For You set - I'm always up for new "angel policy" sets, but this one also had a sentiment that pretty much says it all for me! I paired it up with some fun colored DSP, because I'm SUCH a color junkie, too! So here I am, in card form, but much more buttoned up than in real life, lol.
