Oh good, another landscape sketch this week at Retro Sketch #177! Feeling floral for this one! Feeling floral sent me right out to Gift from the Garden! I've wanted to do something with these cute little pots since I first saw the set in the catty! Now, my final result is a lot more pink than I originally envisioned, but I still really like it! It was also good to pull some pink twine out of my "stash," too - back-to-school cleaning here!

It's so nice to have this chat time with you, lol! I wanted to play with the little plants today, as you can see, though I still can't stay away from the cups! I combined today with the Festive Fireplace suite from the Holiday Catty, though I left off the window altogether, lol... Then I realized that the kitty wanted to come see what we're chatting about, so he's here, too! Can't wait to see what's in YOUR cup, make sure to share!

I have just the mask for this! So today is going to be another one of those weird confession moments for me. Shh. This card is the first time I have ever SPRITZED. SHHH, I said! I don't know why, I've just always been scared to, lol. Is it messy? Does it get everywhere? Does it waste a ton of ink for no good reason? I can't be a party to that! So, anyway, once I got over my hang-ups about it, I've figured out how easy and containable it is, and how to manage the amount of ink. As usual, I now wonder why it's taken me so long to get here, lol. Hint: a little rubbing alcohol does WONDERS! We're totally doing this in class sometime! Watercolor Wings Stamp Set; Calypso Coral, So Saffron, Whisper White & Soft Suede CS; Soft Suede, Calypso Coral, So Saffron & Pear Pizzazz Inks; Bold Butterfly Framelits; Butterfly & Circle Card Thinlets; PL Corner Rounder & 1 3/4" Circle Punches; Metallic Sequins in Gold.

Check out the really nice little details in this week's In{k}spire Me Challenge #211! I was so excited to realize that this sketch gave me the opportunity to use another new holiday set called Peaceful Pines. It's such an amazing collection of trees and Christmas phrases, and here's the clincher for me, it also has an equally amazing framelit set to go with. Love this bundle! I tried to squeeze in a few extra trees, but I knew I wanted to use the Wonderful Counselor image instead of a separate sentiment - my favorite tree in the set! Peaceful Pines Stamp Set; Merry Moments DSP; Gold Glimmer, Old Olive, Heavy & Regular Whisper White CS; Old Olive & Mossy Meadow Inks; Perfect Pines Framelits; Scallop Border & Banner Punches; Cherry Cobbler Baker's Twine; Regals Button in Cherry Cobbler.

I'm matching it with this week's bright color challenge at Create With Connie & Mary #368, too! I decided to go birthday with these bright colors, and who doesn't love a little cupcake for their birthday?! I love every chance I get to play with the Sprinkles of Life stamp set, lol, and I just don't care what color the cupcakes are! These brights sure do go well together, though, and it was nice to add little splashes of color with the gold old Gorgeous Grunge. I might have to have a cupcake for lunch today...

Now this week's Freshly Made Sketch #199 is awesome to work with! Big wide open space for doing ANYTHING! Gonna have to do something fun in the color challenge from Nacho Average Challenge #154, too! So, it turns out that I found these colors VERY challenging, lol. I finally landed on making my own "DSP" of sorts, that I could stamp this scripture from Hebrews over. I ended up throwing lots of Melon Mambo candy dots in for that color - apparently I don't use it much since I had three sheets that ONLY had this color on it, lol. Maybe I should have put them on the envelope, too! Vintage Leaves & Our Daily Bread Scripture Collection 7 Stamp Sets; Mint Macaron, Blushing Bride & Whisper White CS; Mint Macaron, Blushing Bride & Memento Tuxedo Black Inks; Pretty Print Embossing Folder; Banner Triple Punch on the Blushing Bride Scrap; Brights Candy Dots in Melon Mambo. LOVE the circle element on this week's Stamp, Ink, Paper #9! Shall I give it a try with Sunday Stamps #107 gorgeous color challenge? Yes, I think so! So of course these lovely colors say "flowers" to me, and that nice large circle then says "BIG flower," lol. It was fun to bring our Blended Bloom and play with coloring for this one. I did get a little off track with my greens: I colored with Old Olive, but then when I went looking for ribbon I realized I don't have any in Old Olive! Grrr! So I switched to Pear Pizzazz from there on in... Blended Bloom Stamp Set; Pear Pizzazz, Calypso Coral, Heavy & Regular Whisper White CS; Memento Tuxedo Black, Pink Pirouette, Calypso Coral, Real Red & Old Olive Inks; Elegant Dots Embossing Folder; Greetings Thinlets; Circles Collection Framelits; Pear Pizzazz Cotton Ribbon; White Baker's Twine; Subtles Buttons in Calypso Coral.

Wow, look at all the elements to play with in this week's Retro Sketch #176! Let's see what I can do to match it with the fun color challenge at Can You Case It #81 this week! Putting together these two challenges has once again led me down a different road, lol. Sometimes it's hard for me to sit back and just PLAY, you know? I usually start out with some kind of idea where I'm headed, but today just didn't work out that way. Instead, I fiddled and tweaked, tested and toyed... There's stuff on here that I just haven't tried before! At the end of the day, I actually like it, go figure! PS. Double-running embossing folders looks like it's here to stay, too - what else could I run twice? Hm...
