 What a cool idea - this week's Male Room #118 has a "flight" theme - excellent! I decided to go with something that flies, and I happen to have a stamp set waiting on my desk for recess - the lovely Friend Like You bundle. This set has some smaller stamp elements that go with some GORGEOUS edge-on dies called Friendly Silhouettes. I've chosen the water plants one for this card so I can show the cute little dragonflies "taking flight!" The set also has an awesome assortment of sentiments - I love it when the images and words are well mixed, lol. I made a bold blue background for everything with my Blue Brusho Crystals, and kept it lean for an outdoors kind of guy. Fun! Friend Like You Stamp Set; Crumb Cake, Soft Suede, Old Olive & Whisper White CS; Watercolor Paper; Blue Brusho; Old Olive Ink; Friendly Silhouettes Dies; Linen Thread; #TMR118.

 We have such a fun sketch for you this week at Fab Friday #171! Plenty of room for a lovely scene! That was my thinking, anyway, as I pulled out the super cute new Let It Snow DSP to play with. This is a specialty pack - check out these sparkly snowmen, lol! The paper is so fab I haven't even gotten the stamp set yet, though it does come with a handy snowman builder punch - so I think it won't take long to find its way here! Anyway, I kept things pretty simple here, and let the paper do the talking. The sentiment is from another sweet new set - Tidings All Around. You'll have to wait for another time to see all the wreath magic in that one! So, I can't wait to see YOUR fabulous creations - meet me at the challenge! Tidings All Around Stamp Set; Let It Snow DSP; Whisper White & Shaded Spruce CS; Shaded Spruce Ink; Silver Baker's Twine; White Sequins; #FabFri171.   Pumpkin Club August 31!

Oh, very nice - SU Only #230 has a clean and simple challenge for us this week - I think I'm actually getting the hang of those finally, lol! Another sneak peek for this one - how about a clean and simple look at Playful Penguins? I love these guys - they have a fun sketchy look to their drawings, and beautiful scripty sentiments to go with. Plus, they have a snazzy wardrobe, too - can't beat that, lol. I stayed about as CAS as I get, lots of white space, but a few pops of color to move the eye around. Time to snuggle up!

I decided this was a perfect layout for showing off the OTHER Halloween set I got this year (that makes TWO - wowza!) Boo to You. I'll get right to the point - this set was all about the multicolor googly eyes that go with it, lol - I pretty much instantly had to have them! I think it's been a few years since I've even gotten a Halloween set, let alone a suite and some extras - the siren call of the boo just did me in! So, what will YOU create?? I can't wait to see your projects over at the challenge! Boo to You Stamp Set; Monster Bash DSP; Whisper White, Pumpkin Pie & Purple Posy CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Pumpkin Pie, Granny Apple Green & Purple Posy Blends; Stitched Shapes Dies; Black Scalloped Edge Ribbon; Black Rhinestones; Assorted Googly Eyes (in GREEN!!); #TSOT423.

OK, The Library Challenge #40 has a quirky one for us this week - Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus. The art looks cute! I decided to do a little card inspired by the cover - not exactly the theme of the book, lol, but still a cute play on it! I went with my "sketchiest" birds, from the January 2019 Paper Pumpkin, Be Mine Valentine. Then I thought for a while and came up with these words to stamp using my old Labeler Alphabet (miss this one so much!) onto some Word Bubble die shapes. As you can see, I even kept the colors pretty close, too. I don't know why, but I want to crack up every time I look at this card - must be an inside joke, yuk, yuk. Too fun! (I stamped "You're so fly" on the inside!) Be Mine Valentine (Jan 19 Paper Pumpkin) Stamp Set; Whisper White & Petal Pink CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Daffodil Delight, Seaside Spray & Balmy Blue Blends; Word Bubbles Dies (retired); Polka Dot Basics EF (retired); Iridescent Sequins; #TLC040.

And such a great opportunity to trot out another gorgeous new set from the Holiday Catty - say hello to Christmas Gleaming! This beautiful new super suite has stamps, paper, punches, foil elements, embeliies - the list goes on, lol. I concentrated on the paper and the punches today - look how rich the copper metallic details are! I did both sizes of ornaments, and zhuzhed them up a little with a Blender Pen - yum! I finished with a few copper sequins. Such a fun color combo for Christmas, very elegant, and the first time I've used Very Vanilla in an age, too! So, what will YOU create? I can't wait to check it out - see you at the challenge!

I decided to go all spook-tacular on this one - I actually got a few Halloween things from the Holiday Catty, which I only do every few years - check out this awesome DSP! It's like a murder mystery board, lol. I whipped up some quick potions, and cut out my details with the beautiful Ornate Frames dies - good times! I love the muted colors, too - just right for sophisticated yet spooky, lol. Keep your eyes peeled!

Very fun - this week's Sisterhood of Crafters has a "die-namic" challenge for us! What to choose??!! I didn't take me long to land on the gorgeous new Frosted Foliage suite, from our almost-here Holiday catty, The die set that goes with is called Frosted Frames - and look how beautiful it is! I kept things fairly simple here with my layers, choosing a stunning photo sheet from the Feels Like Frost DSP, and finishing with a few Faceted Dots. I can't help but feel like I think I love the Purple Posy best of all our new In Colors, and I still don't even have the ink, lol. Anyway, totally swooning over this new suite - and the dies just shot up to my faves!

Ahh, I love it when the stars align and I'm able to sneak in an extra challenge on my rotation! I can JUST squeeze in this week's TGIF #225 "all on black" challenge! Woot! So, I do have a big stack (ahem) of new goodies sitting on my desk waiting for their ink-christening, so I did a quick shuffle and came across the lovely Tasteful Textures bundle. While I didn't use the dies, I could see that some of these gorgeous patterns would awesome stamped and embossed on black, then colored with Blends, so that's just what I did! These are done in the new Shimmer White EP - so sparkly! I colored in Mango Melody, and added a Mango detail behind the sentiment, too - LOVE!
