Love the tilty panel at this week's Create With Connie & Mary #427! Can't wait to match it with the tasty colors over at TGIF #76! As much as I wanted to bake a stamped pie today with these colors, I decided to go with my Thoughtful branches set - so glad I was able to snag this one - sounds like it has finally sold out, {SOB.} Anyway, this little tree trio has by far been my fave combo in the set, I've noticed - I love being able to make trees in any color!

So, today I get to try out a new challenge I've been watching for a few weeks now, The Card Concept #59! They have a really awesome list of card "styles" they try to follow - so cool to see these definitions in action - go check it out! I'm combining it with this week's sketch from Match the Sketch #145! So when I saw all those yummy scoops of ice cream, I knew I wasn't ready quite yet to put away my Biggest Birthday Ever yet, lol. I really wanted to piece together this big fat ice cream cone for my "sweet treat!" I think my style could be called "Clean & Layered" - gotta have my DSP and embellies! Can't wait to make clouds with this "ice Cream," too...

So, while these colors aren't the first thing I think of for a slice of birthday cake, I think I made them work pretty darn good, for my awesome hubby's big day today. I love you, honey! Today we celebrate the man who takes such good care of a house full of girls, with serious manly style, lol - you're the best!

This is such an unusual layout, I really had a strong idea of how I wanted the shapes to comes together, and this long but graphic tree fit the vision perfectly! I'll squeeze on the sleigh next time, lol. And at some point, I'll trot out the new Christmas DSP, lol - I still can't quite seem to let go of last year's, yikes!

Guess I'm not much of an "elf" person, but you know, there's a case to be made for old St. Nick himself, right? And thataway I get to use my brand spankin' new Greetings From Santa bundle! Yes! So even though I'm cheating a tiny bit, this is the elf for me!

Dripping Cherry Cobbler blood, anyone? Lol. I added a little dangly spider from my awesome Black Glimmer letters, and it was good! I did put a quick "happy Halloween on the inside, too, lol. Just in case they don't get it... I also dressed up the envelope flap, because even slasher envelopes can't be naked!

I think it'll go great with these fun colors from Create With Connie & Mary #426! With these colors I think I'll also include In{k}spire Me #269's Halloween/Autumn challenge. And of course, it's Pumpkin Wednesday - the day I try to always do a Paper Pumpkin alternative! FOUR challenges is definitely a new record for me, yikes. So, I found this juggle harder than I imagined - I had a really hard time working Dapper Denim into a Halloween card, lol. Also, since the Smoky Slate ink wasn't as dark as I wanted for my jack o'lanterns, I had to stamp over them THREE times, lol. So, not totally thrilled with my final result, but an interesting exercise. My sketch addiction is getting me in trouble, I think!

In this case Be Jolly, By Golly, a set made to coordinate with Swirly Bird and the Swirly Scribbles thinlets. Neither of which I pulled in today, lol. Trying to honor the basics of the sketch really sent me off my usual style, if I have such a thing! Still, fun times! The set includes a couple stamps that are made to coordinate with each other like two-steps stamps, too - totally had to try that!

It's so funny, when I saw it in the catty, I was like, oh, I should get the new pinecones, and didn't think much else. Putting it all together today, I was blown away! Versatile, warm sentiments, stunning images with lots of options, and of course, no need to cut - over the top thinlets to go with! As if that isn't enough, there's also a super sweet embossing folder of a pine branch, too, can't wait to use this! I almost haven't noticed that I totally forgot to snag the DSP, too, lol... Good thing there's a sale this month!

Today's cute sketch is from Stamp Ink Paper #67! I love it when new goodies wing their way to me from my Mother Ship! I get so excited, it's sometimes hard to know where to start, lol. One set I've been eyeing for some time now is the lovely Sunshine Sayings bundle, because, oh, those thinlets are AWESOME! So, I had to take this set out for a quick ink today. But again, too much choice syndrome hit me - what a huge stamp set! I finally decided to keep it short and sweet, and am so glad to have these in my stash now!
