 Wow, LOVE this week's Merry Monday #150 - Gifts! Bring on the prezzies! Something that really struck me about this week's inspiration cards at Merry Monday was how clean and simple so many were - I wanted to try this myself! This worked out well, because the only dramatic present stamp I could find was from my retired stash - woops! Anyway, in that spirit, I chose colors from my fave holiday DSP last year, a swooshy sentiment, and a tiny bit of bling. Not quite as clean as the gorgeous samples at the challenge, but I'm still pleased! Christmas Bliss & Happy Moments (retired) Stamp Sets; Lost lagoon CS; Lost lagoon, Pear Pizzazz & Smoky Slate Inks; 1/8" Silver Ribbon; Silver Tinsel from Silver Baker's Twine; Basic Jewel Jumbo Rhinestones (retired.)

 Oh yeah! Feelin' FABULOUS! Good thing, too, because we have another fabulous sketch this week at Fab Friday #60! Now, I know it's the first day of spring, but I was feeling a bit monochrome, you know what I mean? I LOVE this DSP Something Borrowed - the whole suite is just GOR-geous! I have to confess, though, I really sweated this sketch - I dithered for at least two hours, lol! Hopefully I still managed some inspiration for you, because I can't wait to see your Fab creations! A Dozen Thoughts Stamp Set; Something Borrowed DSP; Whisper White & Sahara Sand CS; Early Espresso Ink; Butterflies Thinlets; Beautiful Wings Embosslit; 7/8" Lace Trim in Sahara Sand; Basic Jewel Pearls.

It's going to be a fun extra challenge to use Sunday Stamps #97's color challenge, too! So this was a tough one for me, I won't lie. I was pulled in so many directions! In the end, I was most attracted to the notion that I could have as many layers as I wanted, but I also wanted to keep it "clean & quick," lol. So that's how I ended up with 4 layers of cardstock, but all the stamping one layer - weird, right? I made it up to myself by playing with candy dot colors I never use much, at least... Lovely Amazing You Stamp Set; Whisper White, Cajun Craze, Basic Black & So Saffron CS; Memento Tuxedo Black, So Saffron & Cajun Craze Inks; Subtles, Regals & Neutrals Candy Dots, in So Saffron, Cajun Craze & Basic Black; Corner Rounder Punch.

Time once again to check out what's cookin' at My Pumpkin Challenge #0315 - Folds, Punches & Fun! This week, I decided I need to make something new and cute for my hall table, which will be rolling over to Easter decor soon. How about a cute little stand-up banner? Good times! I knew I wanted to incorporate the lovely Best Year Ever DSP and ribbon, so my color choices were easy once I made that decision. I've also recently realized I haven't been inking up the fascinating What's Your Type stamp set either, and I figured the banner would give me PLENTY of room for letters made that way - Love it! I squeezed in one little word from Crazy About You, and then realized that one of the DSP patterns goes perfectly with my "type," so I had to add a little garland of that, too! Can't wait to see your Pumpkins - come join us! Paper Pumpkin - Layers of Gratitude; plus, What's Your Type & Crazy About You Stamp Sets; Best Year Ever DSP & Ribbon; Whisper White CS; Pear Pizzazz, Soft Suede, Calypso Coral, Coastal Cabana & Crushed Curry Inks; Flower Medallion Punch.

I finally got around to picking up the photopolymer set Endless Birthday Wishes - a birthday version of our beloved Christmas set Endless Wishes, lol. It's so fun to play mix and match with all the little words and phrases! This sketch was a perfect one for having a time moving all the elements around - with just a touch of sparkle! Endless Birthday Wishes Stamp Set; Bermuda Bay, Night of Navy, Tangelo Twist & Whisper White CS; Birthday Bash DSP; Silver Glimmer Paper; Memento Tuxedo Black, Tangelo Twist, Bermuda Bay & Crushed Curry Inks; Circle Card Thinlets; Circles Collection & Stars Framelits; 1 3/4" Circle & Merry Mini Star Punches; Sequin Trim in Bermuda Bay.

Totally have to combine this one with this week's festive color challenge at Create With Connie & Mary #346! I thought at first that I would totally go in a St. Pat's direction with this one, but, well, Easter is coming up fast, and I'm already thinking of that joyous time! It occurred to me that these are spring-y and grow-y colors, which put me in mind of our fabulous set Indescribable Gift. Then I thought about how I could color up my own DSP with the yummy Irresistibly Yours DSP, too, and it just all came together. I think I'll make a few of these to send out to all my dear ones! Blessed by God & Indescribable Gift Stamp Sets; Irresistibly Yours Specialty DSP; Whisper White, Basic Black & Sahara Sand CS; Memento Tuxedo Black, Wild Wasabi & Sahara Sand Inks; Squares Collection Framelits; 1 3/8" Square Punch; Flower Trim; Little leaves Sizzlet (retired-stencil on envelope.)
 This week's SU-per #80 is a neat one - CASE the card shown! Which way to go? I think I'll try to CASE the layout, so I can sneak in Just Add Ink #254's awesome color challenge, too! Since I wanted to use my new Lovely Amazing You stamp set, I ended up having to turn the card landscape, so I could get my envelopes image to fit. That's OK! I think it still works! Having four colors to play with made it so I could do one envelope each in a different color, too - yay! It's like we planned it together! It was also fun to trot out my new In Color accessories - the button and heavy twine. I will say, that heavy twine is WAY softer than I expected - so nice to work with! Lovely Amazing You Stamp Set; Baked Brown Sugar, Tangelo Twist & Whisper White CS; Baked Brown Sugar, Old Olive, Tangelo Twist & Mossy Meadow Inks; Pretty Print Embossing Folder; Wide Oval Punch; White Baker's Twine; Mossy Meadow Heavy Twine; Mossy Meadow & Tangelo Twist Buttons; Striped Satin Ribbon in Mossy Meadow & Tangelo Twist; Basic Jewel Rhinestones.
 Another great sketch at this week's Freshly Made Sketches #177 - seems perfect to pair with this week's St. Patty's color challenge at Nacho Average Challenge #132! I of COURSE wanted to play with shape a little here, lol, and I still had my recently inked Well-Worded set out. You know, I've never used the mustache from that set either! A quick assemblage in the challenge colors, and I have a quirky St. Patty's card ready to go - that makes me giggle, too. Well Worded & Teeny Tiny Wishes Stamp Sets; Gold Glimmer Paper; Pear Pizzaz DSP Scrap (retired stack); Whisper White & Pear Pizzazz CS; Garden Green Ink; Lovely Lace Embossing Folder; Mustache Framelit; Banner Punch (to flag the sentiment.)
 Oh yum! Check out the giant banner shape at this week's SU-per Sketch #79! I'm going to give a go at turning this into a Christmas card with Merry Monday #149's color challenge! Given that I decided to go Merry with this sketch, of COURSE I had to pull out my Wondrous Wreath suite to do up that focal image - I have missed it! I kept the card pretty simple, but did cut down the base itself into the banner shape - neato! I did a light background in the Hardwood, but then kept the details really pared down to show off that lovely wreath. Couldn't resist the silver bow, though. Shhh. Hardwood & Wondrous Wreath Stamp Sets; Whisper White CS; Soft Sky, Marina Mist, Island Indigo & Night of Navy Inks; Wonderful Wreath Framelits; 1/8" Silver Ribbon.

Finally I realized that our Painted Blooms DSP has Wild Wasabi in it, and I found some So Saffron ribbon in the retired box. I feel unsure if my "cut-out" word shows up enough - that Soft Sky is SO hard to bring out! Still, I think it's a pretty card...
