I love the theme for Festive Friday #150 - Chinese New Year! Great things to choose from for the inspo list! I almost went for the dragon, I have to admit, but that all went out the window when I spotted the fortune cookies, lol. I of course had to pull out my Fortunate To Know You set from 2018 - I so love this cutie! I did up some pretty layers with Real Red, Basic White, and a scrap of old Real Red DSP I had, and colored up some cookies to go! I couldn't resist coloring my birthday fortune with red, too, lol. I tied on some Gold Cording Trim and finished with a few Gold Sparkle Gems - just right!, So, I managed gold, red, layers and fortune cookies! Not too shabby!

Excellent - Time Out Challenges #254 has the perfect theme to kick off the new year - "NEW!" For me, I'm of course going to use NEW stamp sets, lol. This one has the added bonus of also being a new image for me - I've never had a telephone stamp, and I was super excited to fill in this gap in my images! I stamped a totally cute phone in Calypso Coral - and stamped off a word bubble for my simple "hello", too. I floated these over this pretty scalloped sheets from the Lighter Than Air pack - and stamped my phone cord directly on that so I could pop up all my other pieces - I so love to fussy cut, lol. Anyway, I finished with a few Calypso Coral Iridescent Gems - just a touch of sparkle!

So fun - check out our frosty inspiration board this round at Hand Stamped Sentiments 429! Brrr! That upper left corner pic SO reminded me of my beloved Feels Like Frost DSP - and I'm STILL hoarding some, lol - fancy that! I picked out a Queen Anne's Lace sheet that's just so delicate, and super close to our pic - beautiful! I added this loving sentiment from our new Perennial Postage set, and cut it out with the Countryside Corners Dies for something very calming. I finished with a few Night of Navy details - some Baker's Twine and some Enamel Dots - I love the quiet look of this! I can't wait to see YOUR projects with our mood board - meet you at the challenge!

Very excited for a new NBUS #58 - with our new Spring Catty launch, I have a STACK to get inky! I decided that today was a "good day" to break in Filled With Happiness, which coordinates with the Modern Oval Punch. So many fun sentiments in this one! I did my background and envelope with this pretty linen sheet from the SAB Softly Stippled pack, and made up my backing Pool Party layer using the new Perennial Postage Dies! Like I said - SO much new stuff to play with, lol. I finished with a few of the SAB Opaque Faceted Gems in Pool Party - just the right touch!

So excited I get to do the sketch for our challenge this round at Sunday Stamps #326 - hope you like it! I think I might be going a little TOO obscure for my own take on this one, lol - but I SO wanted to use the fabulous new Beach Day bundle! I just couldn't take it anymore, lol. I figured the guard shack could be a good take on that rectangle, and how "any shape" can I get than two surfboards?? Lol, well, it's a fun beachy scene, anyway, lol. I mixed in some new SAB paper from the Sunny Days pack, and did some fun sand with my Cheery Patterns EF. I even snuck on some old Whale of a Time Sequins! I can't wait to see YOUR fun takes on my sketch - meet you at the challenge!

We have a good one from The Male Room #182 this round - make it funny or punny! Yay! I haven't played with my It's Science set in a while, and I LOVE coloring these lab glasswares! I made a bright Tahitian Tide background that I stamped all over with bubbles - the overreaction, lol - and then floated my beakers and bottles over that! In addition to my front sentiment, I had one last little pun inside, too, lol - I'm not sure I've ever used either of these stamps yet for this set! So glad for another chance to show off these bright In Colors again, too - I DID warn you!

We're kicking off our stampin' year with this wonderful sketch at As You See It #314! Ahhhh, my two favorite words, "any shape!" Challenge accepted, lol! What a perfect chance to break in the super cute Planted Paradise set - we were given this set for free as part of a recent event, and it had me stumped for a while! There are no sentiments with it, so I matched it with the now-available Heartfelt Hellos, a set you can earn FREE with a $50 purchase during Sale-a-Bration! When a stamp set bogs me down, my first instinct is to go crazy with the color - I think that fixes everything, lol, so I have a colorful array of pretty pots arranged around my bold sentiment. So fun! I can't wait to see YOUR creations with our pretty sketch - meet you at the challenge!

So glad that AAA Birthday #57 is back - and with a rainbow challenge! Beautiful! I decided to add a rainbow-y background today, from my old Celebrate Everything pack - I love the mix of colors on this sheet! With this bright base to go from, it was an easy leap to our new Ice Cream Swirl bundle - such a fantastic giant cone! I colored everything with my Water Painters for this first outing - there are some fabulous dies to use, too! Yum with a cherry on top!

What a great idea! Farm Quest Challenge Blog #43 has a quilt theme on this round! I went straight to my old Christmas Quilts bundle from 2017 - I still love it so much! I decided to make up a few pieced elements, just like I would with my scraps bag, lol, and I turned to my outgoing In Colors for some bright combos! I always start to feel a little anxious for the departing colors this time of year, lol - I know their retirement date will be in a few months, SOB. So you might be seeing them on the blog a bit more often now, lol! Anyway, so much fun! Christmas Quilts Stamp Set (retired 2017); Basic White, Orchid Oasis, Crumb Cake & Silver Foil CS; Memento Tuxedo Black, Orchid Oasis, Parakeet Party, Sweet Sorbet & Tahitian Tide Inks; Quilt Builder Dies (retired); #FQCB43. Very nice - In{k}spire Me #524 is kicking us off with a New Year's theme! I decided to play some more with the gorgeous Light Up The Sky bundle for this one - while it IS carrying over, you still have a couple days left to nab it at the bundle price! Today was all about using these cool "masking" dies - I made up a whole background with them on Night of Navy, and then used my blender brushes to place color to show through for a glorious fireworks display! And it turned out the Iridescent Rhinestones were the perfect way to add just a touch more sparkle! So fun!
