Such a sweet inspiration quote this round at Time Out Challenges #238! I decided to focus on the rainbow, and I snagged my Rainbow of Happiness bundle off the retired shelves to do it, lol. But how could I do something DIFFERENT with it? I focused quickly on the big partial arc die, and decided to try a simple inlaid die pattern! I also feel like our 2021-23 In Colors are PERFECT for rainbows, and I managed to squeeze in all five of them! I finished with this supportive sentiment, and some rhinestone "stars" - love how super simple this is!

Excellent - Shopping Our Stash #496 would like us to celebrate the women in our lives with their "she's a lady" challenge - fun! I couldn't wait to ink up my new Coffee With Friends set for this one, lol. She's not super glamorous, but how else would you dress for kicking back after a major hike?? I love this image because it reminds me of a hiking trip to Mt. Katahdin I took in college. Grueling days on the trail, followed by kicking back with something hot to drink and admiring the view in the evenings, lol. It really did look like this, even from the outhouse, lol. So glad I could pull from my stash of Enjoy the Journey DSP for the setting!

We have another recipe challenge for you at this round's As You See It #299! Since I have a little stack of new toys still to get through, I wanted to pull in something from that! I snagged my new Nested Essentials dies to make a funky frame! I of course pulled Dainty Delights for my flowers, and chose a Lost Lagoon-Pool Party combo for my blues. I really like how this came out! At the last second, I used the same Nested shape for my sentiment, too - the smallest size JUST fit! I can't wait to see what YOU cook up with this fun combo - meet you at the challenge!

This looks like a fun one, lol, Festive Friday #134 is celebrating National Smile Day! I knew I had to use this smiley sentiment from my Sending Smiles set - love it! I did use the other flower, though. This one reminds me of lavender, but I made it yellow for the challenge, lol. It has to be done, and I think it's great! Anyway, I have yellow, black, smile sentiment, and enamel dots - that's plenty for National Smile Day! I went a little crazy with my stems, too!

I'm super excited about The Male Room #174's "animal" challenge! This seemed like the perfect chance to break in our new Gone Fishing suite - SO many cool new man toys, lol! The stamp set itself is fascinating, with fish and lure themes, along with great manly greetings. The die site is over the TOP! I could make a whole tackle box with it, lol, and likely will soon! And I can't get over the gorgeous DSP - I featured three different sheets today! That background sheet of flies is perfectly non-directional, and I added some "water" paper for all my fishies - which were cut from another DSP sheet! Love them so much! Some of the dies even cut these fish, too, of course! Hope fish count as animals, lol... Gone Fishing Stamp Set; Let's Go Fishing DSP; Very Vanilla & Pebbled Path CS; Pebbled Path Ink; Stitched Shapes Dies (retired); Rustic Metallic Dots; #TMR174. Yum! What a lovely fresh inspiration board we have for you this round at Hand Stamped Sentiments #414! I know I should mix it up a bit more, but I couldn't resist pulling out So Refreshing from yesterday again, lol. It gives me the chance to show off these so-dang-cute strawberry dies! So much fun, I did it all up in Sweet Sorbet - stamped off for the pitcher and glasses, and let the ice and strawberries fly! I also chose this sentiment, to match with a Mother's Day wish inside - perfect for my sweet MIL when we went to lunch for her special Mom celebration! Yay! I can't wait to see YOUR fresh projects for this one - meet you at the challenge! So Refreshing & Sentimental Rose Paper Pumpkin (inside) Stamp Sets; Sweet Sorbet DSP; Basic White, Pool Party, Sweet Sorbet & Granny Apple Green CS; Memento Tuxedo Black, Sweet Sorbet & Pool Party Inks; So Refreshing & Stitched So Sweetly (retired) Dies; Sweet Sorbet Baker's Twine; #HSS414. Lol, a new catalog is the PERFECT time to play at NBUS #50 - LOTS to choose from! I think today I'll debut our So Refreshing stamp set - perfect for summer! And of course, it has a set of awesome dies, too - with extras, too, do you like my picnic blanket? Anyway, I put together our new Lemon Lolly with Daffodil Delight today, to see what would happen. Looks like it's working out pretty good! I also deliberately played with all the two- and three-step stamping - I could always use more practice at that, lol. I think this fresh pitcher and tall cool drink are just right together - ahhhhh!

We have some bold new colors for you this week at Sunday Stamps #309! What a perfect chance to break in my new It's a Science set, lol. I totally knew I wanted to do lab-ware in our fun colors, and maybe fussy cut the great shapes to layer! So that's just what I did! I actually kept things pretty CAS here, too, that style must be growing on me, lol. I can't wait to see YOUR projects with our splashy colors - meet you at the challenge! It's a Science Stamp Set; Basic White & Basic Gray CS; Basic Gray Ink; Blueberry Bushel, Lemon Lolly & Berry Burst Blends Markers; Tinsel Gems in Blueberry Bushel; #SSC309. Very nice - this month's If You Give a Crafter a Cookie #180 is for BLUE! This is great color challenge for me, because we have LOTS of new blues to play with now with our color refresh! One of the best showcases of this is our glorious Countryside Inn DSP, too - I've been using it a lot, lol. I'm also super excited to ink up the new Courage & Faith set - SO thrilled to have this one! I love scripture sets, and we don't make many! This one is just beautiful, with extra stamp details to add as well! I couldn't resist fussy cutting these two wines to add around my pretty Proverbs 3:5 sentiment - lovely! Courage & Faith Stamp Set; Countryside Inn DSP; Basic White, Night of Navy & Boho Blue CS; Night of Navy Ink; Boho Blue Blends Marker; Stitched Shapes Dies (retired); Tinsel Gems; #Cookie180. Oh, good one! Balloons are the perfect birthday element to include for AAA Birthday #49! And of course, we have our new Beautiful Balloons suite we can celebrate with! I wanted to pull in some colors from outside the glorious DSP this time - I think I'm really digging Bubble Bath with Blackberry Bliss and Melon Mambo - what do you think?? I kept the background simple, but played with added strings instead of streamers this time, and the pretty curved sentiment to crown the big balloon, too. I finished with a few Pastel Sequins for some extra sparkle! Beautiful Balloons Stamp Set; Basic White, Blackberry Bliss & Bubble Bath CS; Bubble Bath, Blackberry Bliss & Melon Mambo Inks; Beautiful Balloons Dies; Pastel Adhesive-Backed Sequins; #AAAB49.
