Lol, I am ALL OVER Festive Friday #0131's National Pet Day celebration! We love our little home zoo! Yes, I'm featuring another departing color today, too - I think this will be my second-most missed one from this refresh. Rich Razzleberry has been around for my whole Stampin' Up! experience, lol. It was a real stand-by for me! Anyway, I mushed a few things together to come up with this card - some retired Playful Pets DSP behind one of the cute kitties from our Sit Stay Relax host set, which will also be gone soon. I brought in a Pampered Pets sentiment, and some paw prints from Happy Tails. Whew! So, I hit cat, paw prints, a tiny bit of twine, and a birthday sentiment. I might even say my velvet ribbon is "furry," lol...

What a sweet picture Time Out Challenges #235 has for us this round! I know I'll have something for this one! Woo hoo! I knew I still had 2019's Bike Ride set, so fun to play with all the pieces on this one, lol. I think I might better at two-step stamping these days, too, lol. I added in our fun Happy Labels set for my sentiment, the set that's bundled with our Happy Labels Pick a Punch. It all came together perfectly! And yes, I am featuring another departing color, sigh - Bermuda Bay, I'll miss you!

Without a doubt, the color I will miss the MOST that we are losing in this year's refresh is Mango Melody. I'm so sad to see it go, though I'm almost equally excited for you all to see our NEW colors coming in, lol. We can't keep them all, sigh... Anyway, I knew I wanted to feature it in today's card, and the gorgeous Happiness Abounds suite gives me plenty of beautiful scope to do just that! My sweet downline Sarah recently gifted me some extra packs of this DSP - her stash became my stash, lol, and I'm finally getting to play with it! Look how gorgeous it is with Granny Apple Green! I'm shedding a little Mango tear, lol...

I felt like this sketch called for some drama, and since the lovely tree in our Treasured Kindness set JUST arrived, I ran with that! I guessed, correctly I think, that the tree would be perfect as a large circle element, and to bump it up even more, I went rogue with colors so I could pull in the gorgeous Sun Prints DSP. I've really been playing with stamping things in non-realistic colors lately, it's growing on me! I can't wait to see YOUR takes on our fun sketch - meet you at the challenge! Treasured Kindness Stamp Set; Sun Prints DSP; Basic White & Sahara Sand CS; Night of Navy, Sahara Sand & So Saffron Inks; Stylish Shapes Dies; Basics EF; Enamel Dot Essentials in Night of Navy; #AYSI296.

This was such a fun set, and I didn't get to use it nearly enough back during SAB, lol. I'm happy to pair it with this elegant sentiment from Something Fancy, too - a thought for every occasion! Merry Merlot seems like a great fit for pomegranates, too - so sorry to see this color go! I don't think it got enough love either, lol. Perfect Pomegranate (retired 2022) & Something Fancy Stamp Sets; Basic White, Merry Merlot & Old Olive CS; Merry Merlot, Old Olive & Versamark Inks; White EP; Something Fancy Dies; Old Olive Matte Decorative Dots; #MMM197. I'm super excited to guest design with The Male Room #173 team! We're showing off our stencils and/or dies this month! This challenge was just what I needed to finally take the plunge on assembling the gorgeous layered dies for a super-fancy chopper in our Legendary Ride bundle. What a beauty! I can see this in all colors, not just the manly ones included in this perfect Ready to Ride DSP pack. I even found another set of backdrops on the back of the bolts sheet - can you tell I have a thing for classic diners? Lol. And it turns out that this sentiment fits perfectly on one of our old Ornate dies - yes! OK, it's your turn now - let see your stencils and/or dies shine! Legendary Ride Stamp Set; Ready to Ride DSP; Very Vanilla, Pumpkin Pie, Basic Gray, Basic Black & Silver Foil CS; Versamark & Pumpkin Pie Inks; Black EP; Legendary Ride & Ornate Frames (retired) Dies; Matte Black Dots; #TMR173. I'm super excited to be hosting our Spring inspiration board this round at Hand Stamped Sentiments #411! We have something for everyone! I wanted to try to do something with the globe, for Earth Day coming up. Now that we have that glorious Watercolor World stamp, I had to use it! I stamped in Pear Pizzazz, smudged a bit with a Blender Pen, and then filled in my ocean with a Pool Party Blend Marker - whew! For my sentiment, this one from our fun Happy Labels set seemed appropriate, lol. I tucked a few Forever Flourishing leaves behind to carry the theme! I can't wait to see YOUR projects for my crazy Spring mood board - meet you at the challenge! Watercolor World & Happy Labels Stamp Sets; Basic White, Coastal Cabana & Pear Pizzazz CS; Pear Pizazz & Memento Tuxedo Black Inks; Pool Party Blends Marker; Forever Flourishing Dies; Layered Leaves EF (on envelope flap, retired); Rhinestone Waves Basic Jewels (retired); #HSS411. Love it - the March theme for this round's Christmas Craft Creations is "one layer!" I really wanted to use my Hope & Peace set today - LOVE all these sentiments for the holidays! I decided to pull in the still-gorgeous Christmas Season to decorate one edge - love all the two-step stamps in this one - I can add just that little bit more to each element! I mixed some color-on-color with stamping off, and I love the results! A few tiny Matte Decorative Dots in Cherry Cobbler add just the right touch - I so love my embellies, lol! Christmas Season & Hope & Peace Stamp Sets; Basic White CS; Cherry Cobbler, Soft Succulent, Mossy Meadow & Crumb Cake Inks; Matte Decorative Dots in Cherry Cobbler. We have a fabulous landscape sketch for you this round at Sunday Stamps#306! I had a tough time choosing for this one, lol. What did I want to do a triple of? I finally settled on our Sweetest Cherries set - love these juicy beauties! I actually deconstructed the sketch a little more than I usually would, but I really wanted the background sheet to show up around my cherry panel! I've decided I like the look of the cherries over the Calypso Coral DSP, too - I wasn't quite sure if it would clash, lol. And I can never have too many birthday cards! I can't wait to see YOUR triptych projects - Meet you at the challenge! Sweetest Cherries Stamp Set; Happy Forest Friends DSP; Basic White & Basic Black CS; Cherry Cobbler, Early Espresso & Granny Apple Green Inks; Cherry Builder Punch; Poppy Parade Baker's Twine (shh, it was the only red I had, lol); Matte Black Dots; #SSC306. No foolin' - time for Sparkles Christmas Challenge #147! Let's see some presents or parcels this round! I decided to go with my yummy Nothing Sweeter set from 2018 for this one - there's a present cookie in there, too! I kept things simple (and crunchy) and since I used this pretty Crumb Cake sheet from my old Tidings of Christmas pack, I chose the rest of my colors from that, too! Maybe too much frosting? I can't wait to see YOUR projects for our presents round - meet you there! Nothing Sweeter Stamp Set (Retired 2018); Tidings of Christmas DSP (retired); Basic White & Early Espresso CS; Early Espresso, Crumb Cake, Evening Evergreen, Soft Succulent & Cherry Cobbler Inks; Sweetly Stitched (retired) & Rectangle Stitched Dies; Wonderful Gems; #SCC147. |
