Color Me Happy

Oo, fun color challenge at TGIF #128 this week - vibrant!
It also just so happens that these colors feature TWO of our newly returning alcohol markers - Stampin' Blends!  Woo hoo!  A wonderful promotion is on the way, and it will feature a sweet little bundle of products to play with, too - the Color Me Happy stamp set, and a 16 card kit to go with.  I decided to break in the new stamps today, and feature these wonderful paper lanterns.  The Cherry Cobbler ones are in the Blends, and the Crushed Curry ones were done with ink and an aqua-painter - nice contrast!  Anyway, I'm just so excited to have these markers back in our rep - they have a couple new details that I know you'll love!

Here's a fun sketch from Case This Sketch #242!  I'm also adding in the Berry Burst color challenge from In{k}spire Me #320!
I really wanted my added color to be Lemon Lime Twist - love this one with Berry Burst!  This sent me looking for a pretty flower to color, and Birthday Blooms fit perfectly!  I needed some coloring and fussy cutting time this morning, lol - thank goodness I got it!  I added some ombre ribbon - this is such a joy to use on cards, so soft and flexible!  I'm just very happy with this cheery card - bright and pretty!

Lots of elements in this week's sketch from Try Stampin' on Tuesday #342!
There was an extra challenge over at the sketch to "mix patterns," and that wording caught my ear and reminded me that I have the promotion set Merry Patterns waiting to be inked - what a chance!  (This set can be earned ONLY by hosting/spending $300 or more!)  I do like this set, and I don't really have time to feature it in a class, so luckily I also have blogging opportunities, too, lol.  I focused on the pretty candles in the set today - I love that I can stamp the "fill-ins" separately for some two color action.  I worked in some scraps from Merry Little Christmas DSP to add even more patterns - as you can see, I really followed the script on this one, lol!

Cool Thanks

There's always room for a gratitude theme - Global Design Project #107 will be just right!  I think I'll add in these happy colors from Color Throwdown #463, and this layout from Just Add Ink #380, too!
I really wanted to play with something I haven't inked in a while today, and when I went browsing, I noticed my yummy Cool Treats set, and thought, yum, orange popsicles!  Now, that might be my diet speaking, but still, gotta get the sweets in somehow!  Then I remembered my Foil Frenzy DSP, and the orange polka dots there!  It was like fate, I tell you!  Fun and tasty stamping today...

At Christmas & Always

We have the perfect holiday theme at Merry Monday #259 this week - Christmas Trees!  I'll be using Match the Sketch #197 as my layout, too!
I ran straight to my Ready for Christmas set for this card, and focused on the large tree (and its accessories!) rather than the staircase this time. So fun to add the little details!  I swear, our framelit and thinlit sets just keep getting better and better - I couldn't survive without my Big Shot anymore, lol.  I found this lovely background sheet with trees to include, too - now I can't wait to get our tree this year!

What a fun theme at this week's Fusion Challenge - "sunshine on a cloudy day!"  Love the sketch to go with, too...
Well, I really wanted to try and cover both ends of this challenge with both the theme and the sketch - and I think I made it!  As I browsed my stamp sets for inspiration, my eye got caught on the Pocketful of Sunshine set - that word "sunshine" was a big hook!  So I chose a sentiment from there and set about constructing a sun to go with, from Swirly Bird.  I was worried it would be too big, but I think I hit on a way to make it work!  A giant mix of yellow retired DSP scraps, and I'm all set - good times!

Birthday Frenzy

Super cute layout at this week's Try Stampin' on Tuesday #341!  I think I'll add in SU Only #184's "shape" challenge, too!
When I was breaking down the sketch, I started by looking for a nice big horizontal sentiment - and Happy Celebrations totally fit that bill.  What to do for colors?  I browsed my DSP stash for that, and hit on Foil Frenzy almost right away.  Is there anything happier than shiny metallic polka dots?  If there is, I don't want to know about it!  Lol...  From there I picked a sheet, and added a coordinating color, and kept things pretty simple from there.  I made the shape challenge with a punch and a framelit set, but retired now, but still in my go-to stash...

Love this angled band in the layout from Case This Sketch #241!  I'm combining it with the Autumn flowers theme from Paper Players #364!
With the Fall theme, I of course turned to my Painted Harvest suite - the stamps and papers just sing together, I swear!  The Painted Autumn DSP papers are completely gorgeous - so glad to feature this sheet today, and a fussy cut flower seemed just right - especially with the two-step leaves and punch!  The whole suite is just so warm and inviting - wish we had more of a Fall season here in Arizona!

Space, the final frontier!  Sorry, this week's sketch from In{k}spire Me #319 reminds me of a plantet-scape, lol!  Not sure where I'll wind up with that!  I'm adding in Retro Rubber #72's travel theme, too!
So, alas, my old 2006 By Air set, which had an awesome little UFO in it, must have sold, lol, but I still have By Sea, so submarines it is!  So much fun to stamp this old set in our modern colors!  I also snuck in a "best fishes" sentiment on the inside, from our trusty Jay of Love set, too.  Quick and super cute, just how I like 'em!

So excited (and nervous!) to see this week's Freshly Made Sketch #307 - it's a tough one!  I think I'll also see if I can squeeze in these colors from Color Throwdown #462!
So, I finally broke down and got the set A Little Wild - I couldn't take it anymore - the little critters are just too adorable, and the tag feature is pretty intriguing, I have to say.  And so fun to color!  I think I DID manage the colors!  Woo hoo!
