Retro Yay!

OK, this week's Retro Sketch #159 is ADORABLE!  Love that little banner garland!
Even though it's technically retired now, I had to use the Sale-A-Bration You Brighten My Day banner stamp on this one, and of course, I went nutso with the colors!  My philosophy is, when you can't make up your mind, have ALL the desserts, know what I mean?  I kept up with the "Yay" theme, and snuck on a little wavy "congrats," too!  This will be a fun one to give!

A Clean CASE

Here we are with take two of Clean & Simple #6!  I think I'll pair it with this week's subtle color challenge at Can You Case It #64!
I decided I wanted to reverse what may have been a more expected color order, and work with a black background - how to make the colors pop?  This turned out to be SO hard, because I just don't have that many different papers or supplies in the challenge colors.  I finally remembered that the Valentine's DSP Stacked With Love had Crisp Cantaloupe in it, and I figured I would do the sentiment in Pistachio Pudding.  I had to fake it a tiny bit by using the palest Wild Wasabi blendie to color my white emboss for part of it.  I think it matches really well!  It still needed just a touch of something, and a quick dig through a stack of pumpkin boxes got me these pistachio sequins from All Shook Up.  Yum!
Crazy About You Stamp Set; Stacked With Love DSP; Whisper White, Pistachio Pudding & Basic Black CS; White Craft Ink; White Embossing Powder; Pale Wild Wasabi Blendie (discontinued); 1" Square Punch; Hello You Thinlets; Pistachio Pudding Sequins from All Shook Up Paper Pumpkin.

Now we can get our pumpkin started with this month's My Pumpkin Challenge 0415 - Sew Pretty, Sew Simple!  I think it'll be fun to match with this week's fancy sketch at In{k}spire Me #192!
I had to rotate the sketch to make this work out, of course, but still, it seems to have worked out pretty well!  I only added a couple accessories from outside the Pumpkin Kit, and I did go shopping for an alternate sentiment.  Fun times!  The biggest challenge I'm finding in this kit is how to dress the envelopes - on this card, I embossed the flap with some dots to accompany the dotted background of my "salvaged" card base, lol...

Wow - I really love the simple elegance of this week's sketch at Create With Connie & Mary #349!  Time to look over the shapes at my disposal!
While I really felt the tug of all the gorgeous flowers I have, I decided to try out some stars - and play with some of Brights colors!  Once I made those decisions, it all just sort of came together pretty quick, I have to say.  I so enjoy the "hand-sketched" feel of the stars in the Be The Star stamp set - so fun!  I added a scatter of sparkle, and we were all set!

Just Add A Fresh Dahlia

Now this is fun sketch at this week's Freshly Made Sketch #180!  I think I'll try to squeeze in the lovely inspiration pic over at Just Add Ink #251, too!
I focused mainly on the colors from the inspiration pic at JAI, but I also tried to pull in a touch of the floral.  When I think of floral in the graceful curve shape on the FMS sketch, I can't help but think of the flower in Regarding Dahlias!  It seems like the perfect fit!  I tried to do some unexpected things with the colors, and had fun playing with the ribbons - I always found this stretch ruffle trim a challenge to use, but I love how the ruffles pair up when layered with the ruffled ribbon.  It came out positively frilly!

Hey, cool sketch at this week's Nacho Average Challenge #135!  I love it when we can add in the cute little details like this!
Now that Sale-A-Bration is over {SOB}, I guess I'll do a little homage to some of my fave products.  The Best Day Ever suite was definitely at the top of my list this year - I still can't get enough of this DSP!  I even tried stamping on some - and it actually worked!  Go me!

Woo hoo - sweet sketch at this week's Sunday Stamps #98!  I wonder if I can make it a Christmas card with Merry Monday #152's non-traditional color challenge!
I don't know about you, but when a challenge suggests a lime color, you KNOW I'm going straight for Lucky Limeade!!  It's just a no-brainer!  I did go ahead and keep things pretty clean and simple - I just want these bright colors to POP off the card!  I think I succeeded - and I think I've used this set in non-traditional Christmas colors before, lol...

Time for our FABULOUS color challenge, all about SPRING at this week's Fab Friday #61!  I'm matching it up with take two of Clean & Simple #5, too - let's see what happens!
What happens is the simplest and sweetest thank you card ever!  The curved line in the sketch got me thinking of a flower stem, which sent me over to Lotus Blossom for a dramatic version.  Only question is, can I show off the layer details with such pale colors?  I'm game - and happy with the results!  Now THIS is minimalism!

World's Greatest CASE

I'm really happy with the clean lines in this week's Can You Case It #63 - so many different ways to go with this sketch!
So, let's make a man card, shall we?  It's a snap with Guy Greetings standing by, lol.  I figure this will go over well as an anniversary card - ours is coming right up!  I had to get creative with the placement of some of the elements, but darn it, I was determined to use the strong guy on this one - I haven't used it yet!
It's a tiny bit ironic that I made this Mossy Meadow colored card for DH, since he's red-green color-blind.  Oh well!
Guy Greetings Stamp Set; Mossy Meadow, Sahara Sand & Whisper White CS; Memento Tuxedo Black, Mossy Meadow, Basic Gray, Early Espresso & Crushed Curry Ink; Flesh Tone Blendies (discontinued, sob); Neutrals Buttons in Early Espresso; Striped Satin Ribbon in Mossy Meadow; Early Espresso Baker's Twine.

Sew Retro!

Even though we're taking a much-needed breather at My Pumpkin Challenge this week, I still think of this as Pumpkin Wednesday, lol!  And what better way to show off our Pumpkins than by hooking up with this week's Retro Sketch #158??
So, I even decided to keep a square card base to go with the sketch, which, in my opinion, also pairs perfectly with the elements of Sew You!  I started with a layer from one of our card base choices in the Pumpkin Kit, then used one of the sewing cards to trace the curve called for in my blue layer.  I used that same punched piece as a template to pierce the "you" onto a piece of Daffodil Delight, which I then stitched with our white Baker's Twine instead of the yellow floss from the kit.  It's like it all just fell into place!
