Gold Roots

We have a sophisticated color challenge over at CAS-ual Friday #213 this week - shades of gold!
Today I started thinking about how amazing heat embossing looks against dark cardstock, so I decided to go for gold-on-black, and the thought of these gorgeous leaf images all picked out in gold was just too enticing.  So dramatic, I think!  I did a simple sentiment over it all and finished with a few gold pearls.  I think this could serve as a quiet sympathy card, too, now that I look at it.  I think I'll file it there.

Bright Fusion

Fusion Card Challenge has a great playful combo for us this week: a super cute sketch and this wonderful "Christmas chair!"  So lovely!
I hunted in vain for a pretty easy chair to use from the inspiration pic, so I settled for being inspired by the colors and the season in the sketch, lol.  I was excited for another chance to pull out my season's fave Making Christmas Bright set, too - I so love these cheery little bulbs!  I used the light strand to make my horizontal elements, and added a few Stitched Circles to carry my twinkly bulbs - good times!

Poinsettia Christmas

So pretty, Hand Stamped Sentiments #303 has some very classic Christmas inspiration for us this week - love it!
My eye was really drawn to the upper left corner of the inspiration pic - my Grandmother was a huge poinsettia fan - all colors!  She would keep them all year and force the colors herself with a mysterious and complicated lighting schedule involving her walk-in closet, lol.  I've never been able to do it myself, but I can't see them and not think of her!  I think she would have loved this card!

Retro Cupcakes

WOWZA!  Retro Rubber #100 is celebrating a huge milestone this week, with a fun tic-tac-toe challenge to boot!  Time to celebrate!
I finally settled on the far right column of the challenge:  metallics, diecut or punch, and cake.  I think 2008's Crazy for Cupcakes fits the bill perfectly!  Once I had the stamp set down, I dug my Picture Perfect Party DSP pack out too - love the colors in this one, and maybe I even snuck in an extra square for confetti, lol.  I chose the large cupcake image with the curving sentiment over it, and cut it all out with my beloved Stitched Shapes framelits.  For my metallic touches, I painted the candle flame with my Vegas Gold shimmer ink, and added some gold pearls to the cupcake for sprinkles.  Yummy and cute - awesome!  Happy Birthday, Retro Rubber!

Try Psalm 138

We're feeling festive this week at Try Stampin on Tuesday #386!
I saw our nice open space this week as a primo chance for a bold scripture card - I love this line from Psalm 138, and I find it always bears repeating (or is that reminding??)  I decided to play with some pretty DSP to go with, and I love the colors in these sheets from the Share What You Love pack - can't go wrong with the pretty purple stripes, lol.  Some delicate flowers, some layering circles, and this beauty is ready to go!
I can't wait to see what YOU come up with - see you over at the challenge!

Frosted Thank You

Hm, As You See It # 189 is using an awfully big word this week - "quadriptych" - yikes!  Let's just say that the sketch is stripey, OK?
With those pretty stripes I went straight to my paper stash for something pretty - and Frosted Floral DSP wins that one hands down, lol.  I pulled out my two fave petals pages, and did some columns mixed with Soft Sea Foam - loving THAT color a lot, too!  For my sentiment, I pulled out Another Wonderful Year, which has this gorgeous hand-lettered-looking Thank You.  Cutting it with a Stitched Oval gave me plenty of room for a few more First Frost flowers - yay!

Here's a fun one - CAS on Friday #146 wants us to use washi tape this week - cool!
So, I actually don't use washi tape that much, but somehow, I do seem to accumulate it, lol.  I went to my washi drawer and pulled out a few likely rolls:  copper foil, white glitter and silver stars.  Hm, seems like the makings of a fun sparkly copper card!  So out came Beautiful Baubles, and we were off!  I laid on a washi diagonal that had mostly copper, then poured on additional copper details.  I'm actually pretty happy with this one - I don't heat-emboss that often either, lol.  CASOF is just yanking me right our of my comfort zone!

Yay!  I'm so excited that I have a chance to sneak in a card for What Will You Stamp #195's Dashing Deer challenge - I've missed them!
I knew that today I wanted to finally ink up that big brocade deer - so pretty, and it has its very own thinlit - yes!  The beautiful pattern reminds me of our awesome dist-INK-ive stamps - all that beautiful depth comes from a single stamp impression - so cool!  I finished with a couple filigree pieces also in the thinlit set - so elegant...

Sea of Textures

We have such a fun little holiday sketch for you this week at Fab Friday #151!
In spite of how festive our sketch is this week, I did a 180, and decided to ink up my new Sea of Textures stamp set - I sat on the fence for SO long about this one, but once again, the framelits really sold me, lol.  Anyway, I decided to go straight for the big octopus straight away, lol, and then set him up in a pretty under-water scene - so easy with all the lovely fronds and corals to play with!  I also pulled in a bit of the pretty Tranquil Textures DSP to highlight the scene - I'm so digging all the patterns!
So, what will YOU come up with??  I can't wait to see you at the challenge!

Bridget Jones' Coffee

Oh wow - another fun book cover from this week's Library Challenge #20 - Bridget Jones Diary!
My knowledge of this book, I'm embarrassed to say, is limited to the movies - something actually more on the rare side for me!  I'm definitely a read-the-book-first-and-it's-always-better-anyway kind of gal, lol.  I've watched and adored the first two, and I have the third one with the baby in it in my queue downstairs right now, lol.  The first one is SUCH a fun Christmas movie, lol.  I might need to do a marathon tonight and finally watch that last one, now that I think of it - kick off Christmas right!  Anyway, I don't have a big wine glass, alas, so I did a big cup of coffee, in the same bright style as the cover - fun, fun, fun!
