Seeing Trees

Wow, we have LOTS of choices for this week's As You See It #211's tree theme!
I wanted to do something with a CURRENT tree set for this one, lol (yes, I pretty much keep all my retired trees, too, lol) and I can't remember the last time I stamped with Winter Woods.  That's a crime, because putting together today's card reminded me what an awesome set this is!  I doubled up my trees and made a pretty birth background first, then floated this gorgeous Noble Fir over that - simple and woodsy!  Can't wait til Christmas!
Winter Woods Stamp Set; Crumb Cake, Old Olive, Whisper White & Cherry Cobbler CS; Soft Suede, Old Olive & Versamark Ink; Shimmer White EP; Rectangle Stitched & In The Woods Dies; Basic Jewel Rhinestones; #AYSI211.

Perfectly Plaid

What a nice big focal point to play with at this weeks Sunday Stamps #216!
And lucky for me, my Perfectly Plaid suite arrived just in time to play!  I chose the more realistic tree from the stamp set for this one, and the lightest plaid from the papers - and woo HOO for a new Pine Tree punch!  Love it!  I think my sentiment is actually supposed to be an "inside" phrase, but the shape fit the sketch best, so my "Merry Christmas" is one the inside instead, lol...  It's always fun to play with new toys!
So, I can't wait to see YOUR creative ideas for our sketch, over at the challenge!
Perfectly Plaid Stamp Set; Wrapped in Plaid DSP; Whisper White, Old Olive & Cherry Cobbler CS; Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive & Soft Suede Inks; Pine Tree Punch; Stitched Shapes & Layering Circles Dies; Cherry Cobbler Baker's Twine; Gold Pearls; #SSC216.

Wicked Halloween

Lol, you can't go wrong with a Fall-Halloween challenge at this week's In{k}spire Me #403!
I have one last Halloween trick to play - I haven't yet played with my Wicked die - I didn't get the stamp set, but I knew I had to have that die!  I layered tow colors together, offset a little, Gorgeous Grape over Smoky Slate, and did the spider, too, then used my Wish For Everything to fill in the sentiment a little - too cute!  I threw on a few Monster Bash Enamel Shapes, too, for a little extra spook, lol.
A Wish for Everything Stamp Set; Monster Bash DSP; Whisper White, Gorgeous Grape & Smoky Slate CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Wicked Dies; Monster Bash Enamel Shapes; #IM403.

Gathered Pumpkins (& Pumpkin Club Oct 26!)

Hm, The Sisterhood of Crafters is having a "wood" theme this week, and there are some seriously cute offerings in the DT samples!  I gotta try this...
I remembered that there is a woodgrain sheet in our gorgeous Come to Gather pack - love these planks!  With that as my starting point, I decided to just keep going with the Gather Together suite.  I also wanted to give this "invisible" coloring style a stab, too.  I tried with both Blends Markers, on the pumpkins, and Watercolor Pencils, on the leaf.  My method wasn't very scientific, lol.  I just stamped my images in stamped off Sahara Sand, and then just tried to make sure I covered up those lines in my coloring.  An interesting idea that I need to look into more!  It made for some fun experimenting today!
Gather Together Stamp Set; Come to Gather DSP; Whisper White & Early Espresso CS; Early Espresso & Sahara Sand Inks; Watercolor Pencils Pack 2; Pumpkin Pie, Cajun Craze, Soft Suede & Color Lifter Blends Markers; Gathered Leaves & Stitched Shapes Dies; Leaves Trinkets; Copper Sequin; #TSOCWoodRelated.

Oh yes!  Hand Stamped Sentiments #325 has a cool inspiration panel for us this week, and I SEE A TRUCK!! EEE!
I know we have our new truck set now, but once in a while I still feel the call of my old Loads of Love set - it's still a super cutie!  (And maybe it caught my eye yesterday when I was looking for retired flowers, lol, who can say?)  I also love that it has an Accessory set that goes with it, too, with fun things to haul, people to drive, and perfect sentiments to go with, lol.  Today I did the Harvest Pumpkin combo, and tried to color my truck like the one in the inspiration grid.  Quick, cute and loads of fun - what else is there?
Loads of Love & Loads of Love Accessories Stamp Set (both retired 2004)' Basic Gray, Cajun Craze, Whisper White & Granny Apply Green CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Smoky Slate, Basic Black, Pool Party, Pumpkin Pie, Soft Suede & Granny Apple Green Blends Markers; Rectangle Stitched Dies; Orange Sequins; #HSS325.

Oh gosh, Retro Rubber #121 has a challenging tic-tac-toe for us this week!  What to choose!
In the end, I finally settled on Floral-Ribbon-Birthday, and I pulled out the gorgeous Tranquil Tulips, a 2018 hostess set that I just didn't get to play with enough!  I kept it fairly straight forward, and stamped everything in sunny Mango Melody with Granny Apple Green stems and leaves.  I even had a bit of this Granny Apple Green ribbon to pull in!  I'm loving these cheery colors together, perfect for a sweet birthday wish!

We have a spiffy landscape sketch this week at Try Stampin' on Tuesday #430 - and I'm thrilled to combine it with SU Only #234's coloring challenge!
I spent some time browsing the stamp shelves for a nice coloring opportunity to get ready for this card, and kept coming back to Cuckoo For You, which I think I've only inked up once, lol.  Double win!  I chose some sweet colorful DSP to set the palette and went to town on my little clock face.  Can I just say, I love my Blneds Markers?  Did you not know that yet?  Well, now you do, lol...
I can't wait to see what YOU are inspired to create, over at the challenges - see you there!

Smooch Me With Apples

With a new month, Joy of Sets Tic Tac Toe #10 is back with a new grid for us to play with!  Fun!
I don't think I've ever done "watercolor smooching," so of course I have to pick a row that includes that!  How about Silver-Watercolor Smooching-Apples!  I wanted to smooch the apples themselves for this one, so out came my Harvest Hellos set - LOVE the punch that goes with it!  I started with a strip of Whisper White, then pressed my ink pads direct to am embossing plate and spritzed a few times with water.  Then I started smooching, lol.  I wiped down the plate between colors and did a bit of heat gun drying, too.  What a cool effect!  I totally want to try this again, what a fun way to play with color!
Harvest Hellos Stamp Set; Whisper White, Poppy Parade, Crumb Cake & Pear Pizzazz CS; Memento Tuxedo Black, Poppy Parade, Mango Melody & Merry Merlot Inks; Apple Builder Punch; Polka Dot Basics EF (retired); Silver Thread; Silver Pearls; #JOSTTT10.

Excellent - CAS on Friday #165 has a "masculine" challenge for us this week!
I feel like I'm getting the hang of CAS these days - maybe a little too much!  I still have plenty of embellies to work though, and I seem to be using them less and less, lol.  I went with an extra layer for this one, because I wanted that color compliment for my truck when I was done coloring it all in.  Still, I think I still managed the CAS directive here, lol.  And I'd love a Bermuda Bay pickup truck for my birthday - yes, please!
Ride With Me Stamp Set; Bermuda Bay & Whisper White CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Bermuda Bay, Pool Party, Smoky Slate, Basic Black, Poppy Parade, Mango Melody, Granny Apple Green & Rich Razzleberry Blends Markers; #CASOF165.

Tidings All Around

Wow, there's a gorgeous inspiration pic to go along with the sketch over at this week's Fusion "Dragonfly" challenge!
I think, though, that this week I'll stick to just the sketch.  It occurred to me that I haven't yet inked up my new Tidings All Around set - and it has some awesome dies to go with!  I did a pretty wreath in Mossy Meadow, added a few Real Red berries, and laid over this simple sentiment also in Red.  I'm trying to heat emboss more, so I did a little of the new Shimmer White EP, too.  My sentiment isn't quite in the right place for the sketch, but I like it like this.  Such a pretty wreath!
