Seriously Sunday & The Bloomin' Bouquet!

So, do you detect a little theme going on at my desk this week?  That's right, this is the Paper Pumpkin Clean Out around here!  My resolution?  To do my usual round of sketches, and ONLY use Paper Pumpkin - no more hoarding!  It's my new-catalog-is-coming resolution!
When I saw this week's Sunday Stamps #46 - I wasn't sure I could keep my resolution - could I really make the pieces work?  Yes!  Especially when you consider the leftover pieces, too - this sketch was PERFECT for that!
April 2013 Paper Pumkpin - Seriously; Regals DSP on envelope, More Mustard.

The Bloomin' Bouquet Project Kit!
Mother's Day. Teacher appreciation. Just because. Say thank you with this no-maintenance bouquet. There's no watering, no weeding-just enjoying. This easy-to-assemble kit comes complete with the petals, stems, and buttons to create the flowers, as well as four different tags to make this the perfect gift for any occasion. All you need is some paper, ribbon or a vase to add the finishing touches to the bouquet.
As if that weren't enough, the kit contains a "baker's dozen"! This means you can create and give (or keep) a dozen flowers, and have a bonus flower left over to pass along to someone new! Give it to someone you wouldn't normally think of: a teller at the bank, a grocery store clerk, or the librarian at your local library. Anyone you encounter on your way that you'd like to give a little "thank you" to!
Ordering information:
Item 134542 $12.95 Available starting April 29, while supplies last.
Kit contents:
  • 2 sheets of preprinted and precut flowers on 12" X 12" cardstock; makes 13 flowers using Pool Party, Gumball Green, Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight, and Rich Razzleberry
  • 13 Vintage Faceted Buttons
  • 13 green floral wire stems
Adhesive not included. (Glue gun recommended.)

Seriously Fabulous

As soon as I saw the sketch for Fab Friday #17, I thought of our latest Paper Pumpkin kit - "Seriously."  Here's where I point out that I did NOT name this post "Fabulous Booty" when I could have!  Heee...
I know the tag shape was just a suggestion, but, well, the kit actually HAS tags in it - how could I resist?  Buttons, too, it's like they made this sketch with the kit in mind, IMHO!  Now if only I could bring myself to use the other sentiment from the kit.  It's a bit too weird even for me!  ("Love your guts"??  Who talks like that?)

For this week's Clean & Simple #238, I knew I wanted to use some more paper from the This and That Epic Day set I got recently - especially the honeycomb-map!  Too cool!  What better to go with a map than a compass?  It turned into a quick little note of encouragement, and not too blingy - sometimes I guess Less IS more...

Fellow parishioners already know - we have some pretty big news at St Barnabas this summer - our beloved Rev. Erika has two little ones on the way - EEEEE!  As soon as I heard about the plans for a baby(-ies!) shower, I jumped in and begged to do the party favors - I don't get to do enough of those now that we're out of elementary school and in grouchy middle-school, gr.
So today was R&D for that - what do you think?  I had thought I would just do a take on the cute Easter favors I did recently, but then I remembered some cute onesie cards I did a while ago for someone's thank you's.  I thought, can I miniaturize that?  Turns out I can!  Pretty sure I'll be doing the onesie one, half green and half purple, for variety.  Let cuteness abound!

Yay - another week where I can combine some sketch challenges!  This week, I joined the forces of Sunday Stamps #45 and Freshly Made Sketches #83 - a match made in heaven!  As is SU's! latest photopolymer set - Bombs Away Birthday - I LOVE it!  The sentiments are hilarious - I can tell I'll be using this set quite a bit!
PS.  Someone tell my hubby I made this card so he chooses the right restaurant for my upcoming dinner out, giggle!  NO SINGING!

So, alas, the first day we've been waiting for is here (the second day is the new catty, of course!) - the retirement lists are out!  I've got two lists for you:  go here for the retired stamps, and here for retired accessories.  As always, all items are while supplies last, so make sure to get what you can't live without while you still can!  And check over the accessories list carefully - some great sale prices on there!

As usual for this time of year, my stampin' studio looks like an attack of the polka dot monster - that's how I mark my retiring sets - with a sticky dot - sigh...  Argh!

I see a stamp sale in our future, ladies!

Well, it's been a rough week all over, hasn't it?  I was feeling a real need for some reassurance, and this quote seems to be just perfect.  What a great sketch to add some pretty detail!  Thanks so much to Retro Sketches #60 for giving us such lovely inspiration week after week!

OK, I SERIOUSLY considered calling this post "Clean Booty," giggle...  I created this week's Clean & Simple #237 card from the April Paper Pumpkin Kit - Seriously!  I do think the sentiments from this kit are pretty cute, so I had to doctor it up a bit to take a stab at a sketch card with it.  I think I might give this to Bug in celebration of getting through another year of AIMS testing!

Sunday Butterflies

What a fun sketch this week from Sunday Stamps #44!  And of course, it's by my buddy Kathya Hidalgo, so I HAD to play!
So, we all know I couldn't do flowers, since they were actually ON the sketch, so I took a quick browse for a different shape to use.  Luckily, my latest Best of set was burning a hole on my desk - solution butterflies!  From there I just browsed sets that seemed to match the art of the butterfly I chose - such a sweet layout!  Thanks for the fun sketch, Kathya - these butterflies are for you!
