Merry Monday #251 has a cool blue challenge for this week! Let's try it with this focal sketch from Try Stampin' on Tuesday #325! Looking over the sketch, I decided to see what DSP I might have to try out - and wouldn't you know it, I found THIS sheet in the Delightful Daisy collection - who'd have thought? Usually, tranquil Tide reads as an aqua green to me, but this sheet reads more as an aqua blue - or maybe I was just looking for snowflakes, lol. Once I settled on this sheet, the stamp choice was a no-brainer, and I even tossed in a couple new "blue" embellies - LOVE this new ribbon!

Hm, a sensation of fabulousness is sweeping over me - it must be Fab Friday #114 time! Lol. So excited that we can finally play with all five of our new In Colors! I'm combining with Global Design Project #90's sweet sketch today, too! Speaking of sweet, did you take a look at the new RMHC set?? More jars to play with - hooray!! Berries and bugs, baby! I'm opting for the butterflies - I can pack a LOT of colors on those, I think, lol. I found a nice background DSP in the gorgeous Whole Lot of Lovely DSP, and I'm good to go! I can't wait to see what YOU come up with - see you at the challenge!!

I can't wait to work through all my new goodies with you all! I'm kicking off with this adorable pig, that I've been drooling over FOREVER, lol. They're all just so happy, and so piggy! I swear this is in my top five new faves! I did a little creative SAMJ-ing to get my sentiment to line up just how I wanted, and I'm tickled Powder Pink. Snicker.

"A banner day" at As You See It #151 is just what I need! Super fun! These playful colors from TGIF #110 will be just right, too! So, I opted for quick and colorful today - I love the Peach against the Bermuda, and a little black detail really sets everything off - brilliant color combo! It was also nice to break out the Layering Squares framelits - I hardly ever remember to use them! A scalloped edge, a few sequins, and we're all set!

Love this sketch from In{k}spire Me #303 - simple but bold! I'm excited to try it with Less Is More #331's neopolitan" color challenge - and maybe I'll have a quick neo ice cream sandwich for inspiration - Blue Bunny is the best! So, the drawback to having an ice cream sandwich inspiration snack is that it kinda sends you to the food options in stamping, lol. Like working neopolitan isn't bad enough, lol. Who cares?? No one here - bring on the cupcakes every chance you get, I say! I tried to keep it simple, but then I had a little sequin attack, too, sigh. Oh well. Still yummy!

Another cool and layered sketch from Match the Sketch #179! I can't wait to try it in these colors from Just Add Ink #362 - LOVE them! Oops, I totally got distracted by my lonely little Glimmer stack looking for likely DSPs to use here - bring on the Bermuda Glimmer! When I first spotted it in the SAB rewards, I couldn't wait to get my hands on it - and then I only used it once, of course, lol.This card also gave me the chance to use my new Label Me Pretty set, and the new punch that goes with - yes! Quick, simple, sweet - just the ticket!

Today's card is a combo of this lovely sketch from Paper Craft Crew #246, and these fun colors from Color Throwdown #445 - here we go! So what happens when you don't have DSP and embellies in all your new colors yet? You go off the rez and make your own, lol. I just refused to give up on this one, and I even ended up with something I actually like, too! This was my first try at playing with our Fabulous Floral Acetate, too (make sure to check for film BEFORE adhering down, and ALL the sheets have film - ask me how I know??) and I think it's a great way to add a metallic accent to a solid color like Night of Navy. Powder Pink plays nicely here - the pic doesn't do it justice!

I love the rustic theme at this week's Merry Monday #250 - I feel some woodgrain coming on, lol... I'm going to try and do this in this week's Freshly Made Sketch #290's layout, too! For my woodgrain background, I went with my retired Adventure Bound DSP pack - so many good papers in there! I always seem to lean towards combining that one with Christmas Pines, too - and today was no exception, lol. This is definitely in my top 5 fave Christmas sets of all time - and the Pretty Pines thinlits can't be beat! A little burlap, a dash of gold and a couple pine cones complete my "rustic" scene - yay!

I have a chance to play at What Would You Stamp #118 - Urban District! Yay!! I think I'll try it with this fun new sketch from Try Stampin' on Tuesday #324! It was totally a natural fit to bring in my Urban Underground DSP to go with this card - which will be perfect for my own Dad, of course! I love the patterns and embellies for this suite, but it's a pretty narrow color array! It's hardly noticeable that I snuck in Smoky Slate, too, is it? Still, I'm so sorry we didn't get to keep this suite in the new catty - between this and Nailed It, we finally had some solid "man-stamps!"

Today's fun sketch is from Paper Players #346 - very stylish! I'm going to add in the Less Is More #330 "shimmer" challenge, too! So, this card ended up being QUITE the journey for me today, lol. I was paralyzed - no lie! I went from a typewriter, to flowers, and finally settled on the balloons. I sponged my background to limit my layers, and added shimmer with silver-embossed clouds, a strip of glimmer paper, and three lonely sequins. {SOB} Just kidding. I tried to aqua-paint some colorful balloons, too, and they just didn't want to fly, sigh. I finally went on this Pool Party Smoky Slate combo and called it good. Time to walk away, lol!
