Eclectic Garden

Well, I came across another new challenge blog the other week, and now I finally get a chance to play!  Creative Creases Challenge #24 is all about a fun fold!
I don't tend to do many fun-folds in class, but I do have a couple simple ones that are my faves - easel card, anyone?  But today I'll go for a "Z" fold, I think - I love that floating panel!  I decided to pull in Eclectic Garden, a new set in the Spring Mini Catalog - something about these turnips just called to me, I guess, lol.  You know, the "self-made woman of vegetables," lol.  Only Gerard Depardieu can make that sound like a good thing, lol.  Anyway, I might have overdressed these beauties in the SAB paper from Friendly Hello - I just love these stripes, too!  My inside DSP layer maybe doesn't go with turnips, sigh...
Eclectic Garden Stamp Set; Friendly Hello DSP; Crumb Cake, Shaded Spruce & Basic White CS; Memento Tuxedo Black & Pool Party Inks; Shaded Spruce, Crumb Cake, Petal Pink & Calypso Coral Blends Markers; Stitched So Sweetly Dies; #CCC24.

Bee Trio

Yikes, this might be a tricky theme for me this week at CAS on Friday #223 - hexagons!
I followed a hunch and found that I do still have JUST enough scrap of our old See a Silhouette DSP, the sheet that had the fun hexagons - yay!  I carefully trimmed my piece down to focus more on the yellows - you can see from my envelope flap that this was some pretty colorful stuff!  The paper seemed like the perfect background for this cute trio of bees from our Honeybee Home set, and I love this simple sentiment with them, too!  Quick to put together today - yay!
Honeybee Home Stamp Set; See a Silhouette DSP (retired); Basic White & Crushed Curry CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Daffodil Delight & Basic Black Blends Markers; Honeybee Blooms & Stitched Shapes (retired) Dies; Green Twine; Wonderful Gems; #CASOF223.

Oo, what a great theme for a card at Festive Friday #0101 - International Wetland Day!
I didn't exactly go wetlands, but I did think water, at least!  I finally got to try out my new Gentle Waves background stamp - it SO COOL!  Love it, and I can see using it for sand dunes, too!  I paired it with a our cute new sailing set, Let's Set Sail, which, gasp, comes with a punch!  Yay!  With all these good ingredients, it was a snap to choose several items from the inspo list!  Birds, green, brown, water, masculine, blue - I think I could make a case for all of these!  What a fun way to design a card!

Time to bring the cozy with our beautiful colors this week at As You See It #267!  Hope you can join us!
I couldn't help seeing the sea when I saw our colors this week - especially a little crab, lol.  Lucky for me, the brand new bundle Seas the Day has been burning a hole on my desk waiting for just this moment!  The card was actually a snap, thanks to the gorgeous dies, including this underwater diorama I got to try out, too - gorgeous!  I gave my crab some fishy friends, too, lol.
I can't wait to see YOUR projects with our colors - meet you at the challenge!

Fusion Coffee Board

Wow, check out the amazing combo at this week's Fusion "coffee chalkboard" challenge!  Love it!
I didn't think I would at first, but I hit both sides of the challenge today!  Turns out, my attempt at a chalk board layout came together easy as pie - I just got out all my fave coffee sets and went to town!  I LOVE how it came out!  After I heat set all my white embossing, I added some of the sketch elements:  the old Striped Burlap Trim was just perfect, and I fussy cut and pieced this simple cup from Press On.  Last I tucked the little stitched oval in Cherry Cobbler under my ribbon - just right!

Look at that, I get a chance to play at another new-to-me challenge today!  Shopping Our Stash #462 would like us to "cross the border," and use our border punches or dies!
I started out a little backwards today, lol.  With this theme, I went for the dies FIRST, because I don't actually use them them very often!  I love this stitched cloud border the most - what do I have that flies to go with it?  Why, a mouse and a balloon, of course, lol.  This little guy from Mischievous Mice, our Spring Mini hostess set, is just the thing?  He's flying up, up and away - yay!  I pieced in a bright Mango Melody balloon, too, to brighten up that cloudy sky!

Check out our bubbly sketch this week at Try Stampin' on Tuesday #540!​  I think it will go great with our fun colors at Hand Stamped Sentiments #381!  ​
Such sunny colors, I couldn't help but lean towards flowers, and I still can't get enough of our Pierced Blooms Dies!  Such an easy way to do color spots (and challenges, lol!)  It all fit in well with the sketch for sure, and I found just the simple-and-narrow sentiment I wanted in our Simply Succulents set - easy breezy!
I cant wait to see YOUR takes on our challenges this week - fire it up!

Desert Winter

Yay!  Just discovered another new-to-me challenge blog!  Make My Monday #166 would like me to show "winter wherever I am!"  Fun!
I couldn't resist making my Winter card be a Christmas card, too, lol, and I of course had to pull in the cacti, since I live in the Sonoran Desert!  It was so fun to pair up my Flowering Desert set, which retired in 2019, with our more recent  Painted Christmas DSP!  I snagged a sentiment from Christmas to Remember, and made a study in Greens and red.  Yes, most of my cacti flower in white and pink, but hey, this is a Christmas card!

Yum!  I hope you can come play along with our cozy colors this week at Sunday Stamps #275!
I am SO excited to finally have a chance to ink up this new single stamp, Every Chapter!  I was smit at first sight, I have to say, lol.  I really needed a good "stack of books" stamp, and it would be hard to improve that sweet cup of tea on top, too!  I have several friends this is the perfect image and sentiment for, and I just love it for it's own sake, too, so sweet!  I had fun coloring it up in the colors of our challenge, and at the last second, I quick embossed the background in Old World Paper - even though it's retired, it seemed appropriate!
I can't wait to see what YOU make of our colors this round - meet you at the challenge!
Every Chapter Stamp Set; Basic White, Cherry Cobbler & Sahara Sand CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Cherry Cobbler, Real Red & Smoky Slate Blends Markers; Sahara Sand Stamp-n-Write Marker; Old World Paper EF (retired); Cherry Cobbler Linen Thread; Cherry Cobbler Dots; #SSC275

Ah ha!  Time Out Challenges #205 would like us to start thinking "love," lol - no problem!
OK, I couldn't resist using one of the options with our latest truck stamp, Best Delivery.  I can just see this cutie speeding along to get to the church on time!  Since I paired it with our super-cute Sweet Talk DSP, I dressed up the truck in Real Red details, and piled on the hearts - love is headed your way!
