 We have the perfect Halloween inspiration for you at Hand Stamped Sentiments #426! I couldn't resist all these awesome pumpkins in our inspiration collage - and I had just the thing! I've been looking for a chance to use the super cute pumpkin stamps in our September 2023 Paper Pumpkin - With Love & Gratitude! I love being able to stamp that stem separately, so I can make my gourds whatever colors I want! I floated these 6 over a pretty woodgrain from our awesome All About Autumn DSP pack, and I think they look great! I can't wait to see what YOU create from our lovely inspiration - meet you at the challenge! With Love & Gratitude Paper Pumpkin Stamp Set (Sep 2023); All About Autumn DSP; Basic White & Copper Clay CS; Copper Clay, Crushed Curry, Moody Mauve, Cajun Craze, Mossy Meadow, Pumpkin Pie & Early Espresso Inks; Gold Sequins; #HSS426.

 Oh, this is a good one! The Male Room #179 want to see a "get well soon" card! I did a quick check for get well sentiments in my current sets, and to my delight, there's one in Warmest Heart! I am still smitten with these cute thermoses, and I decided to branch out into more of the cool dies that come with them this time, too - my featured thermos is ALL dies - check out that carry loop! So cute, lol. Anyway, I started with a Pretty Peacock base, and did up a trio of manly thermoses, complete with screw off sipping cup, in fun coordinating colors. I added my get well tag above it all, and at the last second stuck on some tiny white Resin Hearts. Picture these all filled with chicken noodle soup! Warmest Heart Stamp Set; Pretty Peacock DSP; Basic White, Pretty Peacock, Galvanized Metal, Smoky Slate, Granny Apple Green & Crumb Cake CS; Memento Tuxedo Black, Smoky Slate & Granny Apple Green Inks; Blender Pen; Daffodil Delight & Pool Party Blends Markers; Warmest Hearts Dies; White Resin Hearts (retired); #TMR179.   Such stunning colors we have for you this round at Sunday Stamps #321 - and pretty bittersweet in a jar! I finally am dabbling in the pretty Season of Chic set - I almost let this beauty get away! The gorgeous two-step stamping I could do on these laves seemed just right for our colors this round, and so many fun design elements in the dies! I resurrected some Pretty Peacock DSP for my background, and coordinated with Cajun Craze and Pumpkin Pie for my colors - and I am loving this combo! I even pulled out a few Seaside Spray Faceted Dots to finish - from Pretty Peacock's original In Color release! I'm NOT a hoarder, I swear! I can't wait to see YOUR lovely projects with our warm colors this round - meet you at the challenge! Season of Chic Stamp Set; Pretty Peacock DSP; Basic White & Cajun Craze CS; Pretty Peacock, Cajun Craze & Pumpkin Pie Inks; Chic & Autumn Leaves Dies; Cajun Craze Linen Thread; Seaside Spray Faceted Dots (retired); #SSC321.   I have a nice collection of new goodies to try for this month's NBUS #55! Yay! I started with one of my pre-order sets for the next Online Exclusives release - available November 7! This adorable little beaver is part of the Fluffiest Friends set - a collection of chonky little critters bundled with wonderful dies! I broke my personal shopping rule with this one - since it has no sentiments (GASP!) I paired it with our playful Happy Labels set - a match made in Heaven! I don't feel too bad about the rule for these guys - it's CRITTERS, and I love them all! I've also slipped in some preview DSP, Bee Mine, part of the Bee My Valentine suite we get to pre-order for our On Stage event in November! You're going to love the honey-sweet patterns in this pack! Fluffiest Friends & Happy Labels Stamp Sets; Bee Mine DSP; Basic White & Sweet Sorbet CS; Memento Tuxedo Black & Sweet Sorbet Inks; Crumb Cake, Pebbled Path & Sweet Sorbet Blends Markers; Fluffiest Friends, Tailor Made Tags & Stitched Be Mine (retired) Dies; Bordered Ribbon in Sweet Sorbet; White Resin Hearts; #NBUS55.   Goodness, check out these little monster cupcakes at this round's Cupcake Inspirations #580! I think I can JUST squeak in! Today I went for a scary cup of coffee, lol - I have always LOVED this sentiment in the Merry Cafe set from 2017! I combined it with my newly acquired stash of Frightful Sight DSP - don't you wish you could get cups like these out and about?? Lol. I also stuck on this little "Happy Haunting" flag using the still-awesome Banner Year set from last year - very good Halloween advice, lol. Merry Cafe (retired 2017) & Banner Year (retired 2022) Stamp Sets; Frightful Sight DSP (retired); Basic White, Basic Gray & Cajun Craze CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Coffee Cups & Tasteful Labels Dies (both retired); Black & Silver Baker's Twine; #CIC580.

I have to chuckle at AAA Cards #251's graphic this round for "anything spooky goes," so adorable (but spooky!) I decided to pull out our old Jar of Haunts set that retired in 2016 - this jar full of floating eyeballs is hands down the spookiest stamp I have, lol. Ewww! This was such a fun add-on set for our beloved Jar of Love bundle, lol, I just couldn't resist! I kept it pretty ultra-CAS - black and white details, with just some touches of color for the eyeballs, lol. I did add a little black and silver baker's twine I found in a drawer, and finished with some Matte Black Dots. So spooky!

I get a second run at this month's monochromatic theme as a guest designer at Christmas Craft Creations! I decided to do a companion card to my first one, this time using the awesome Mossy Meadow sheet in the Traditions of St. Nick pack! I love all these old fashioned post boxes, I usually only still see these sometimes in England, but they still always make me smile! Another simple layout, with a smudged up mailbox this time to go with that sweet sentiment. I finished with a few Iridescent Rhinestones, so I wouldn't add any other colors! I hope you'll join us, and get into the monochromatic spirit! Meet you at the challenge!

We're feeling inspired by this pretty Fall Picnic pic this round at Retro Rubber #218! I decided I really wanted to try NOT to do sunflowers for this one, lol. What else could I stamp in those colors? How about a cactus?? Done! I pulled my Cactus Cuties set that retired in 2022, and started building my little succulent in a pot. Isn't it adorable? I also wanted to dress up the background, so I embossed my white panel with the Stripes EF, strategically adding an extra strip on one edge, as this is a narrower folder. I tied a little Old Olive Baker's Twine around the pot, and finished with some Daffodil Delight Glossy Dots for just a touch more color - love it! I can't wait to see YOUR sunny projects in our colors this round - meet you at the challenge!

We want to have a laugh this round at Make My Monday #212 - show us your punny funny sentiments! Today I went for 2020's Witty-cisms set to help me out, lol. I originally got this set for the cactus image (lookin' sharp!) but I think I have never used this chinchilla one! This was fun! I did a trio of Stylish circles using papers from the still-awesome Celebrate Everything pack - I was hoping this could pass for a guy card - I stamped the Happy Birthday on the inside! I love the look of these colors together! I can't wait to see YOUR punny cards this round - meet you at the challenge!

Lol, I was able to re-arrange some things so I could get in on this round of Festive Friday #145 - which is all for Halloween! Looking over the inspo list, I was really attracted to the "witch" ingredient, so I pulled my Spooky Fun set that retired in 2016 - I think this might be the only witch I have, lol. It also has a moon - score! I started going through my Halloween stash of things, and ended up sort of throwing lots of elements on there - I think this card came together a little wonky as a result, lol, but I'm a warts-and-all kind of stamper - you even get to see my weird ones! I started with a black base that embossed with my old Spiderweb EF, and ran some Delicata Silver over it. I thought this sparkly black ribbon might do as well. After building my witch scene, I remembered I still had some spider trinkets, so I doctored one of those to add on, too. This turned out to be a real Halloween mish-mash, lol.
