Another great combo for us this week at In{k}spire Me #387! Let's go for broke and shoot for BOTH challenges this week! Looking at the sketch, I knew I wanted to make a feature sentiment - what "big" words do I have? I quickly came across my Broadway Birthday - good times! Love the retro feel of these fonts and images, lol. I settled on this two-part phrase, and added some accents in my beloved Mango Melody - haven't used this embossing folder in a while either - good times! Broadway Birthday Stamp Set; Whisper White, Cherry Cobbler & Mango Melody CS; Memento Tuxedo Black, Lovely Lipstick, Mango Melody & Cherry Cobbler Inks; Broadway Lights Framelits; Corrugated DEF; #IM387. Man Cards 2019 Yay! It's finally time for THE class for the men in our life! Sometimes it can be a little tough to "go manly" for our guys, but this class guarantees something for all our dudes! This class will feature 6 all-occasion "man" cards, without a doily or a butterfly in sight, lol. You'll have your choice of sentiments that most suit your needs, too! Class is $25, and provides all supplies (bring your own snips and fave adhesive!), drinks, snacks and a special gift from me! You can also take this class for FREE with your order of $30 or more! RSVP today! Class is on for Thursday, March 14 at 630 pm, or Saturday, March 16 at 3 pm. See you there!

We are celebrating a HUGE milestone at Sunday Stamps #200 - can you believe it's really been 200?! We're celebrating with a hop, and some very cool prizes - come play! I don't know about you, but I like to celebrate with BALLOONS! and maybe some bubbly, too, lol, as you can see. I think today's bright colors, confetti and sparkle really say CELEBRATION! I pulled my fave bright combo to get started, and realized that these colors were pretty much from our retired Picture Perfect Party DSP, so out that came, too - so glad I had a sheet left of this confetti! I laid my balloons over the top, and finished with my champagne sentiment and some glitter dots - party time! To help our celebration along, I am offering a brand new set of aqua-painters FREE to a randomly selected North American winner, who leaves a comment here at this post - will it be YOU?? Just leave a comment to get in on the action! I'll let you know when this challenge closes, in two weeks! Good luck! And make sure to check out the rest of the team - prizes for everyone!!!

VERY cool, As You See It #195 has a fun sketch for us they're calling "all askew" - I totally get it, lol! Even though I used it in class, I don't feel like I have used my awesome Sale-A-Bration set Home to Roost enough! Doesn't this handsome guy deserve to strut?? So out he came for this fun topsy-turvy sketch! I chose some woodgrain for the background, then stamped up a little block of "tall grass" that comes with the rooster for the other layer. The handsome guy is perfect for our Blends Markers, I think, and just a few sequins to brighten up the edges. Welcome to the farm!

Here's a fun one - The Sisterhood of Crafters has an "in the red" challenge this week - just to use red on our projects! No problem! To show off some red, I decided flowers would be the way to go, and a flower set I haven't used in a while is Accented Blooms. I love that the sentiment shapes included in this set leave the words in the negative, so I got to stamp my sentiment in red, too! I kept it fairly simple, though I did pull out a few reds i had to play with - why not, lol? It's all so easy with our Stampin' Blends Markers!

We have some soft and pretty colors to play with at this week's Hand Stamped Sentiments #309 - yum! After a quick browse, I decided that our gorgeous Beauty Abounds was the go to set for these pretty pastels. I finally got to play with the delicate vine-y stamp in this set, love the pen and ink look of it! I kept the colors even lighter by sticking to the light pens of all my Blends Markers sets - love the result! A few little butterflies, a few sparkly dots, and we are all set! Quick and fun, with a sophisticated touch with the stitched edges on my rectangles - ahhhh... Beauty Abounds Stamp Set; Whisper White & Soft Sea Foam CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Soft Sea Foam, Pool Party & Highland Heather Blends Markers; Layering Circles & Rectangle Stitched Framelits; Butterfly Beauty Thinlits; Clear Epoxy Droplets; #HSS309.

For some reason, I really was stuck on wanting to use my Dragonfly Dreams for this one today - by hook or by crook! I though originally that I'd do something with the pretty little "spray" of dragonflies in the thinlit set, but it just didn't look how I'd envisioned, sigh. Then I realized that I could make an embossed vellum background for a larger one - I LOVE embossing vellum, and the bonus is that you can usually hide the adhesive pretty well somewhere in all that texture! I settled on my beloved Layered Leaves folder, over Pear Pizzazz, and stamped a lovely detailed dragonfly to go on top. Hopefully this is CAS enough! Dragonfly Dreams Stamp Set; Whisper White, Pear Pizzazz & Vellum CS; Memento Tuxedo Black & Soft Sea Foam Inks; Layered Leaves DEF; Detailed Dragonfly Thinlits; Faceted Dots; #CASOF152.

We have another fun sketch for you today at Try Stampin' on Tuesday #398 - going for the triple, lol. I couldn't resist going back to the lovely Painted Seasons suite from our second Sale-A-Bration release, and finally feature the succulents! This DSP sheet is just so gorgeous, and the Dist-Ink-tive stamps show such amazing detail for them - just love it. I stayed pretty true to our sketch, just showing off the DSP and adding a simple sentiment from Another Wonderful Year. I finished with a few "dewdrops" of the Clear Epoxy Droplets - just the touch I needed. So, what will you create for us?? Can't wait to see, meet me at the challenge! Painted Seasons & Another Wonderful Year Stamp Sets; Painted Seasons DSP; Pool Party, Lemon Lime Twist & Whisper White CS; Lemon Lime Twist & Memento Tuxedo Black Inks; Clear Epoxy Droplets; #TSOT398. I'm excited by Back to Basics #22's challenge today - a pop-up box! I haven't done one of these in a while! In fact, I had to go back through my 2014 class sheets to find my old instructions on these - whew! These are so fun to play with, and they have so much real estate to fill! I decided to go party with it and pulled out my Sweetest Thing set to see if we could get a candy shop together, lol. I constructed a landscape orientation so I had a little more horizontal room for these pretty jars, and I spent a LOT of time coloring all these candies - good way to spend a rainy day, lol. I hope you can see all my treats, one I do find is that these cuties are hard to photo! But so worth it! Sweetest Thing Stamp Set; How Sweet It Is DSP; Pear Pizzazz, Whisper White & Melon Mambo CS; Memento Tuxedo Black & Pool Party Inks; Crumb Cake, Granny Apple Green, Melon Mambo, Daffodil Delight, Pool Party & Highland Heather Blends Markers; Layering Ovals & Jar of Sweets Framelits. OK, I had to laugh when I saw this week's cover at The Library Challenge #27 - Spark Joy. - I just binged-watched a season of Marie Kondo on Netflix a few weeks back - I had no idea her methods was based on a book she'd written! Too funny, but it was a cute little show! So basically, I think this book cover makes the most perfect card sketch there is, so that's what I'm going for! I also liked this color scheme, so I kept that, too. Naturally, thinking about sparking joy led me straight to my Hello Cupcake set, lol. I brought in one of our new sentiment options for it from the awesome More Than Words set, and of course, I was delighted to use the fabulous Call Me Cupcake framelits. Just when I thought I was done with my cupcakes, along came the framelits, lol - I predict a cupcake overload soon! Hello Cupcake & More Than Words Stamp Sets; Whisper White, Early Espresso, Lemon Lime Twist & Crumb Cake CS; Early Espresso, Crumb Cake, Granny Apple Green & Real Red Inks; Layering Circles & Call Me Cupcake Framelits; White Stitched Grosgrain Ribbon; #TLC027. I am so honored to guest design at this month's Joy of Sets Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge #003! I tell you, these grids are getting seriously fun! So today my eye went straight to that "Nature" in the middle, and ran straight for Rooted in Nature. From there I worked on the horizontal (Embellishment-Nature-Layers) but I've also realized I have a few other elements from the grid, too, like "green" and "rectangle," lol. I have a prediction that some fine day soon I'll actually cover an entire grid - look out, lol. Anyway, I have wanted to float this lovely sentiment over the big leaf in this set for quite some time, and I took my colors from the DSP, Nature's Poem, per usual. I so love these leaf stamps, just gorgeous! So, I'll be haunting the challenge to see YOUR creations - come play with us! Rooted in Nature Stamp Set; Nature's Poem DSP; Whisper White & Tranquil Tide CS; Tranquil Tide & Cajun Craze Inks; Nature's Roots Framelits; Leaves Trinket; #JOSTTT003. |
