We're going square this week at Sunday Stamps #232!
I think all our pretty layers are PERFECT for helping me out with a little DSP surplus I have going on, now that the catalog is about to roll over!  This happens to me every year - I have just a bit too much to discard leftover, and, I still LOVE the papers, lol.  Take our gorgeous Bird Ballad DSP here - so pretty!  Such fresh and lovely colors!  How can I not show it off??  I added in this sweet thought from Thanks For the Laughs, which will also be retiring soon, and I am all set!
So, what will YOU create for our sketch?  I can't wait to see your ideas, over at the challenge!
Thanks For the Laughs Stamp Set; Bird Ballad DSP; Whisper White & Calypso Coral CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Stitched Shapes & Rectangle Stitched Dies; Gold Glitter Enamel Dots; #SCC232.

Oooo, I'm super excited about Less Is More #420's challenge this week - a one layer card that's all about the dots!  Nifty!
I think when I'm doing one layer cards, I almost always run straight to layered masking.  And it just so happens that dots have always been my favorite design element, I just find them so cheery!  So when I spotted this adorable sentiment in my new Lovely You set, I knew I just HAD to use it!  I stamped my sentiment, and covered it with  circular mask punched from a sticky note.  From there, I added two more circle punch sizes to make up my "dots," and each size got its own color!  I used my sponge daubers to get this translucent effect - I think they're like happy bubbles fizzing off the card!

Yum!  Check out the cute colors at this week's As You See It #226!  So fresh!
I took a browse of my shelves, and came across another retiring set, that I haven't used I think since I got it, lol.  Time to say goodbye to Cuckoo For You!  I love all the pieces and sentiments for this one, and that you can make an interactive cuckoo clock!  I kept things simple for today's card, and had a good time coloring the clock like a very fancy birdhouse!  Isn't it just like a squirrel to horn in there!
Cuckoo For You Stamp Set; Soft Suede DSP; Whisper White & Call Me Clover CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Soft Suede, Call Me Clover, Lovely Lipstick, Daffodil Delight & Crumb Cake Blends Markers; Cuckoo Clock & Stitched So Sweetly Dies; Call Me Clover 1/8" Grosgrain; #AYSI226.

Good times ahead - Retro Rubber #135 has a new tic-tac-toe challenge for us!
For today's retro card, I am actually sticking to my current shelves, shhh, but this set actually was released LAST catty, in 2018, so it still qualifies!  This is my big chance to say farewell to the retiring Beautiful Day set, and I have to admit, I used this set WAY more than I would have thought!  I've just been sucked in over and over by being able to color in the big bold coloring book images for it, lol.  I think I've fussy cut this flower 30 times since I got it, lol, so it definitely deserves a farewell post!  My choices fit the right-hand column - diecut, birthday and bright colors...  I think this is the youngest retro I've ever done!

Wow, I really like In{k}spire Me #421's combo this week - love those woodsy colors!
This layout gives me an idea for trying out another fun combo preview - today we get to see Many Mates, with its gorgeous dies, Many Medallions!  This card is a bit inside out for me - I put the big Happy Birthday on the inside, but I couldn't resist featuring a couple of the accompanying sentiments this set has to choose from - I see many happy combos ahead, lol.  I added some trim created with the amazing dies, and even took a new embossing folder for a spin - my Sahara Sand layer is done up with the new Tasteful Textile - pretty!

Can you bring in the torn edge at this week's Try Stampin' on Tuesday #459?  I hope so!  And what a great time to have a designer's choice theme at SU Only #250!
I think this aligns all the stars for me to premier another preview set - say hello to Beautiful World!  This set has some beautiful globe-themed images and sentiments, and is part of a "super suite" - that is, it has DSP, dies, ribbon, embellies, even an embossing folder - wait'll you see!  I kept things fairly simple for debut day here, but I can tell already I'll be coming back again and again to this gorgeous suite!
So, what will YOU create for us?  I can't wait to see you, over at the challenges!
Beautiful World Stamp Set; World of Good DSP; Whisper White, Basic Black, Misty Moonlight, Mossy Meadow & Copper Foil CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; World Map Dies; Decorative Label Punch (retired); #TSOT459; #SUOC250.

Hm, what an inspiring combo this week at Fusion's "Enough" challenge!
I can't look at that flourish element and not turn to our lovely Flourishing Phrases set - so sorry to see this one retire this year!  These gorgeous die-cuts are SO handy for my projects!  Anyway, I stuck pretty tight to the sketch and the inspiration - and I had some fun with sponge daubers on my big swirly vine!  My grid paper look so pretty now, lol...  I added a "Happy Birthday" inside under the other half of this sentiment - "so he made you."  This one was surprisingly quick!

I'm excited by this week's "in the garden" challenge at The Male Room #136! 
I ran straight to My Meadow for this one, I was thinking of the little wheelbarrow right away!  I built a little scene with the barrow front and center, and used Pretty Peacock for my accents - love this In Color!  I hunted around for a sentiment, and finally came across this one from Butterfly Gala - but I have a Happy Father's Day from the My Wonderful Family Paper Pumpkin inside - this card will be perfect for my Da - he has a HUGE 2 acre garden down on his ranch outside Austin, and I can just picture him out there puttering in the kale, lol.  This'll be my hint to add some pretty flowers, too!

Birds & Branches

Just in time for summer, The Sisterhood of Crafters is asking us to use birds, bees or butterflies (or all three!) on our cards this week!
With a theme like this, I just couldn't resist pulling in some of my new pre-order goodies!  First up is the lovely new Birds & Branches bundle - the lovely washed birds also come with an amazing set of dies, that, once again, really elevates the set!  Aren't they cuties??  The set actually does NOT have any sentiments, which is something that usually makes me steer clear, but there were a couple awesome sentiment sets to choose from, too, that pair beautifully.  This one is from Lovely You, and it has been punched using the new Lovely Labels Pick a Punch - wait'll you try this one!  So many choices, of size and style, this might be my fave new punch, for sure!

Lilypad Birthday

Our bright colors are yummy enough to stick a cocktail stick in at this week's Fab Friday #190!
I have to say right up front, though - these were a doozy for me!  I'm not too proud to admit that I just never took much of a shine to Call Me Clover, lol, and it really throws off my eye!  In the end, I went with this abstract color layout design, but using the fun squiggly lines from the soon-to-be-retiring Lilypad Lake.  This set is a great one for using in unexpected ways, though the lake elements are amazing!  I even added in a "bubble" effect with the moon element - dots always make me so happy!
I can't wait to see YOUR projects for these colors - see you at the challenge!
