This is exciting! The Male Room #172 has an actual SKETCH for us this month! I love it! I first thought I would try to stamp some kind of hatch-work pattern for that fun geometric band, but then I realized I wanted to play with DSP, lol. My He's All That suite is perfect for this! I grabbed my old 7/8" Square punch and dug through my scraps to come up with this layout. I also got to use this cute 'stache-y sentiment - love it! I finished with a few Rustic Metallic Dots, since I'm such an embellie addict, lol. Happy to have a little love-note for hubs!

OK, don't get frazzled with my spring cleaning theme at this round of As You See It #294! Clean out some scraps - you know you need to! That said, after all the poking around in my search bar for "spring cleaning" images for this challenge, a stamp set by that name from Catherine Pooler popped up in my Amazon feed, lol. It was on clearance so I figured what the heck! There were some cute mop and bucket images! I'd actually been thinking about this scrappy idea for a while - I laid a strip of Tear-n-Tape across the center of card front, and stuck down a mix of scraps that I distressed with my fringe scissors. I tied them around with Linen Thread for extra security, and then tacked on that mop and bucket for fun! The sentiment is from our just-retired Thanks a Bunch SAB set - perfect! I can't wait to see YOUR projects for this one - get out that broom!

So, I recently "re-"discovered a sizable stash of our lovely Tea Boutique DSP - it's so fresh and bright - it was a celebration of our new In Colors at the start of the current Annual Catalog, and I think I used it once in a catty preview class last year and promptly forgot about it! I think I need to relocate my 6" x 6" DSP to be more visible, lol. ANYWAY, I found this sweet Spring-y sheet in there, and pulled my trusty Color & Contour bundle to dress it up! I stamped my sentiment onto this pretty tag of Parakeet Party, and finally played with this stem from the the stamps - so cute! It was fun to pull out two colors from this release that I have rarely used!

I decided to grab my Greatest Journey set for this one again - I think this beauty has snuck into my favorite current set spot, lol. Today I chose to mindfully try one of the patterned sides of the DSP - they are every bit as fabulous as the landscapes! I love the organic colors of this one, and I also experimented with trying my own color coordination with it - neither Pool Party, that I layered it on, or Evening Evergreen, for my stamping, is listed as one of the colors on the pack. But I love it here! Such an inspiring suite!

I decided a dramatic sketch needed a dramatic set, and I don't think I can beat the drama found in our beautiful Enjoy the Journey suite! I set up a simple scene on my favorite landscape sheet, with a hiker checking out the amazing view! A few clouds and milky dots add some lighting, and the sentiment seemed just right for this courageous hiker! I can't wait to see YOUR projects for this lovely sketch - meet you there!

Such a fun sketch to play with, I set out to find JUST the thing! I think this calls for a carrot wreath, lol... Since this set doesn't come with dies, I knew I was in for a bunch of fussy cutting, too! I started by pairing my favorite Granny Apple Green sheet from the SAB Dandy Designs pack with Mango Melody - THESE are carrot colors, lol. Then I went to town stamping and stamping off large and medium carrots, and curvy leaves. I had a cup of tea and cut all my goodies out in one go - whew! I arranged everything how I thought it would fit, and ended up snipping some carrots down so they would all fit. I pop-dotted the sentiment, and tucked the leaves behind that. Kind of a crazy effect - I wasn't sure how it would turn out! I like it!

So thinking along the lines of "classic," I couldn't resist pulling out the Legendary Ride suite again! This time, I really wanted to explore the backs of our awesome shiny sheets - this one has scene after scene of classic diners straight off Route 66! I love it! I can see coloring some of these beauties someday, too, but for now I stuck to the suite color scheme. Well, except I went with Smoky Slate instead of Basic Gray for my sentiment - I was afraid it wouldn't show up as well! I can't wait to see what YOU make of our awesome sketch - meet you there!

Now, I think I did a "dots" challenge not too long ago, and with the goose on a floatie. I think I'll cover stripes with this one, and bring in the geese again, lol. This "goose bumps" image is OF COURSE why I even got this set, lol, and I was thrilled to finally ink it up! So thrilled, in fact, that I needed to fussy cut this cutie - I have it bad! I found my favorite stripey sheet from the Design a Daydream pack, and featured a nice Daffodil Delight circle to float my geese on! I did a second little sentiment down ta the bottom to seal the deal, lol. At the last second, I remembered that I have Daffodil Delight Glossy Dots, too! Yay!

I decided to go with my Adventurous Journey set for this one - kayaking is a GREAT sport! I love to color this guy in, and float him over a cool puddle cut with our Diorama Dies, lol. So fun! I should add a fishing pole somehow!

I went on the hunt and found a "circle" I haven't even used yet - the cookie in the A Little Cheesy set! How cute is that? I kept it pretty pared down - just three cookies (we have to show SOME restraint here, lol) and a few new gorgeous Crumb Cake Enamel Dots Essentials. Love it! We went chocolate chip, of course - yum!
