Sketch time again at our Fab Friday #145!  We even have a little banner - yay!
I'm excited to get to ink up another new set from our almost-here Holiday Catty - First Frost!  Wait'll you see the DSP in this suite - dreamy and pearly, with gorgeous water-colored floral images, a fancy new holiday alternative!  There are of course awesome framelits to go with - I did some vellum sprays to echo my paper choice here - quick and elegant!
So excited to see what YOU come up with - see you at the challenge!

Holy smokes - you've GOT to check out this new challenge I just found:  The Library Craft Challenge #14 - a card makers' challenge inspired by BOOK COVERS!!  BRILLIANT!  I can't wait to play, kicking it off with the cover of I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings by Maya Angelou - not a light read, either, lol.
I started by scoping out my bird sets, but I didn't feel quite right about doing something cutesy.  In the end I remembered my silhouette birds from High Tide, and went hunting for a possible scripture to go with.  I think of Angelou as such a strong personality - I think Psalm 34 is a good match for her - and the strong details of her story...  What a start to this challenge for me, lol.

Ah, perfect timing! AAA #122 wants us to use a stencil this week!
I say "perfect timing," because I was just going through some - ahem - STUFF laying around on my desk, and found my little sleeve of the Pattern Party Decorative Masks.  After a quick check to make sure that yes, these ARE actually still available, lol, I put them in the "Get this inky!" stack.  I decided to go for the big medallion for this card - I'm not sure I've ever used this one!   think I went straight for the cloud one to use with embossing paste and never looked back.  But hey, any chance to show off my fave new color trio is good by me, lol.  Hope it's clean and simple enough - another one-layer - twice in one week!  Woo!

We're back with another fun sketch this week at Try Stampin' on Tuesday #377!  This one was a stumper for me, argh!
I must have stared at my stamps for an hour looking for something fun to stamp in a trio - and I just wasn't feeling flowers today, lol.    AT LAST, I spotted Dragonfly Dreams - and boy, it's been an age since it saw ink - perfect choice!  I went for soft and subtle colors today, to represent the pretty sheen these guys always sport, and dropped on a few matching sequins, too.  ALMOST one-layer, except I had awesome thinlits to play with, as usual, lol.
Can't wait to see what YOU come up with - see you at the challenge!

Oh wow - LOVE Fusion's Galaxy combo this week - gorgeous!
First thing I did was pull out our beautiful Twinkle Twinkle DSP - perfect background for what I had in mind!  I had "any shape" on the brain, I'm afraid, so I landed on Beautiful Ride pretty quickly, lol.  And I must say, if I'd had this gorgeous Mango Melody Bug when I was in high school instead of the oxidized pine green one I did, I bet I'd still have it to this day!  Ahh, starlit snuggles - the best!

You know I love my tilty sketches - which is only ONE reason I'm so stoked about our sketch this week at Sunday Stamps #186!
Reason number two??  New goodies to show off, EEE!  Today I'm breaking in to our gorgeous new Country Home suite - stamps, papers, shimmer ink, twine - whew, and there's even more that couldn't make it on here, lol.  And of course, there are a couple new blends colors that go GREAT with this beautiful stamp set - ahhh, perfection has landed!
Can't wait to see what YOU come up with - show us your stuff!

CAS-ual Fridays #206 has a super cute "welcome back" banner inspiration going this week - cool!
I decided to run with the colors more than the banners this round.  I FINALLY went ahead and got the Abstract Impressions bundle - love these brush-stroke styled flowers and leaves - and the sentiments are super sweet, too.  How about a sunny rainbow row of flowers?  I just can't seem to stay away from our new Brights collection these days!  In order to at least TRY for CAS, I also kept it all one layer, and only gave in for three tiny rhinestones, lol.  Hey, this is super CAS for me, lol...

Yummy - Paper Players #406 has a cute "fruits and vegetables" challenge going this week!
As soon as I saw the challenge pic, I immediately leapt to the retired set Market Fresh, from 2015.  Did I still have it?  A quick rescue from the "for sale" box and I am on my way, lol.  This lettuce image is actually the one that originally caught my eye with this set - too cute!  Why-oh-why didn't we blends back then for coloring??  Because, I mean, look how perfect they are for it!!  I combined with a quick stamped-off background made with our upcoming Buffalo Check stamp - so excited to make any color background or check I want - the mind boggles.  I kept it otherwise quick and simple - gotta stay CAS!

SO happy to see Hand-Stamped Sentiments #296 color challenge this week - I was just thinking I need to break out the Blueberry Bushel!
I finally settled on a pretty flower combo for these colors - I think I almost always go that way when I have any combo that includes both green and yellow, lol.  Painted Harvest continues to fascinate me with its versatility, and I love the ease of any kind of punch to go with!  Thanks to Freshly Made Sketches for a layout - wish I could have completed this in time to play, but I think I ended up with a sweet, fresh little card!

OK, good times ahead!  Retro Rubber #93 has a tic-tac-toe challenge this week - I'm really getting into these!
After quite a bit of back and forth between my computer and the shelves of retirement, I finally settled on the middle horizontal row - stripes-green-one word.  And Sunburst Sayings from 2016 is going to get me there!  I picked out the "thanks", and then added stripes in the two line stamps included - pretty nifty in all these mixed greens, lol...
