TGIF #148 has a great masking challenge for us this week - LOVE this technique - make sure to check out all the incarnations shared by the Design Team - gorgeous!  I'll be combining with this fun sketch from Paper Players #382, too!
I really wanted to debut my recent acquisition of the completely over-the-top cute Bella & Friends set - I held out pretty long before finally giving in, lol.  Especially when you consider that one of our canine herd here is also named Bella!  Anyway, these soulful little pup eyes just melted my heart today, and I thought I'd start with this cutie!  I did a simple mask on the background to add a "horizon line" behind her and went from there.  What a good dog!

You Are Amazing (& Bubbles & Raindrops Class Mar 8 & 10!)

Excited to play at Case This Sketch #260 - we have a big bold sentiment ahead!  I think I'll add in Global Design Project #127's Sale-A-Bration theme, too!
To get myself started, I decided to pull in my Tutti-Frutti Cards & Envelopes - I've been through about 5 packs of these already, lol.  Such great colors!  I also wanted to use my Celebrate You thinlits for the big sentiment, which was a shoe-in for the coordinating Amazing You stamp set.  We're coming up SAB all over!  I've really wanted to try the "amazing" thinlit, with that big swooshy curve - I stacked up 5 of them to really make it pop!  Some quick coloring with Stampin' Blends on my flower, and we are good to go!
Amazing You Stamp Set; Tutti-Frutti Cards & Envelopes; Basic Black, Calypso Coral & Whisper White CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Calypso Coral & Old Olive Blends; Celebrate You Thinlits; Calypso Coral Enamel Shapes; #CTS260; #GDP127.

So, guess my BIG NEWS??!!  Ta-daa!  Today is my first day on the design team at Try Stampin' on Tuesday #358!  SO excited to join these talented and hard-working gals!
So, I looked at this week's sketch and saw citrus, what can I say?  Here in Arizona, we have a citrus exchange on my street - I put out boxes of lemons and get back pink grapefruits and limes when I'm lucky, lol.  We had a lemon tree at our first house that precipitated my very own lemon recipe collection, including cleaning ideas, lol.  And I STILL gave away crates to our Houston's restaurant!  Yikes!  Things are a little more controlled these days.  Maybe I could add a fig tree next...
I can't wait to see you at the challenge - come join us!
Lemon Zest Stamp Set; Tutti-Frutti DSP; Whisper White & Lemon Lime Twist CS; Memento Tuxedo Black, Pumpkin Pie, Lemon Lime Twist & Crushed Curry Inks; Lemon Builder & 1 3/4" Circle Punches; Tutti-Frutti Sequins; #TSOT358.

Fusion has a lovely Spring Wreath Inspired challenge combo for us this week - I can't wait to get out my Easter decor, lol!
Once again I decided to go pretty literal on this combo, lol - I created a pretty vine-y wreath with my Swirly Scribble Thinlits, and added my Spring flower elements with Beautiful Bouquet.  So much fun!  These colors are inspired by my Easter Wreath for the front door here - it's in the form of a wire Easter Basket, filled with pretty pink and yellow flowers, and a few pastel Easter eggs.  It's almost bunny time!

Hello hello!  I'm so excited by our lovely color challenge at this week's Sunday Stamps #173!  I'm excited to combine it with this sweet sketch from Global Design Project #126, too!
These verdant colors really made me think of the fun-to-color set Hanging Garden - so much detail can be picked out with markers of your choice, or even watercolor pencils for even more shading!  I went with my good old Stampin' Writes, because I of course also have the In Colors for them.  I think I spy with my little eye some Lemon Lime Twist, baby!  Yes!  After the coloring was done, it was all about how many more LLT highlights I could add, lol.  Enjoy - and see you at the challenge!
Hanging Garden Stamp Set; Whisper White, Lemon Lime Twist, Sahara Sand & Old Olive CS; Memento Tuxedo Black & Old Olive Ink; Lemon Lime Twist, Old Olive, Smoky Slate & Sahara Sand Markers; Layering Ovals Framelits; Pattern Party Decorative Masks; Ombre Ribbon in Lemon Lime Twist; Lemon Lime Twist Sequins; #SSC173; #GDP126.

Magical Mermaids

I am SO super excited by What Will You Stamp #156 this week - Magical Day!  Love this suite!
Today I really felt the call of my paper snips - I treated myself to a new pair for Christmas, so they need to get in there!  How about some gorgeous little mermaids from the amazing Myths & Magic DSP??  Yum!!  I had so much fun - it was hard to pick just three, and then even harder to figure out what to do with them after, lol - no sketch today!  I also felt like they were dancing, so I had to sneak in a little piece of Beautiful You, which I think goes with these ladies PERFECTLY!  Yay!

Paper Players #381 has a fun challenge for us this week - sewing!  It's so funny, sewing used to be my MAJOR hobby, til stampin' came along - it'll be fun to marry the two!  I'm using this fun sketch from Try Stampin' on Tuesday #357 to help me along - watch for some exciting news there soon, too!
I used to collect old sewing stamp sets, lol, but I finally let them go - I can't believe I don't still have them, lol!  Fortunately, I still have the awesome Christmas Quilt set, which is perfect for SO much more than Christmas!  I played with some fun Spring colors, and a couple extra "sewing" details - LOVE the extra framelits that came with the Quilt Builder set!

What a fun layered sketch from Try Stampin' on Tuesday #356 this week!  And I think I can even get in the secondary challenge of polka dots with my combo with Retro Rubber #80's dotty challenge, too!  Love it!
I had fun browsing my retired shelves for some likely dots, I have to admit.  I had a little stack going, til I got down to my most-beloved Best of Cluck set, and realized that the little chicken feed stamp could qualify as dots - game over!  I stamped the card base around the edges with it (subtle, that's me, lol) and then laid on some dotty DSP scraps I dug out as well, which totally directed my chicken colors.  It's a GOOD day when the chickens can come out - hooray!!

Love this bold sketch from Case This Sketch #259!  Think I'll take a crack at TGIF #147's Sale-A-Bration Inspiration Challenge, too!
I decided today I would play with some of my fave SAB stuff in a new way.  First up, perhaps my all-time favorite freebie - Bubbles & Fizz DSP!  Love the colors, love the patterns, love the coordination with the Bubble Over stamp set!  But guess what?  It's great with another "suite" - the all SAB Amazing You Stamp Set & Celebrate You thinlits (which will carry over to our next annual catty, folks!)  I had Bermuda Bay on the brain this morning so I went for this starry sheet, and added some black sentiments and sparkly details.  Ahhh!

What a fun landscape sketch at Just Add Ink #396 - it even has a banner, yay!  I'm also combining with In{k}spire Me #338's colors - so pretty!
I decided to color my own card base for this one, by using a sponge brayer to cover a piece of Irresistibly Yours Specialty DSP.  I know this is our retired resist paper, but I have so much left, lol, I haven't been able to get a newer one yet.  This floral print is one of fave patterns from this pack, too!  A nice long block element to go over it came from Color Me Happy, which of course was made to show off our Blends - there are days, I swear, that cards pretty much make themselves!
