Great timing - The Sisterhood of Crafters would like us to "give thanks" this week! So, I feel a little done with pumpkins these days, lol, so I turned back to the gorgeous Nature's Harvest set for this one - it has that lovely scripty thank you, after all! I am down to the barest scraps in the DSP, too, I don't think I've ever used every single bit the way I have with this one, lol. I was able to eke out some stems from my tiny scraps, and I floated them over Basic Back for extra color pop. I couldn't resist pulling out my retired Tin Tile EF, either, this design goes SO well with some of the DSP patterns!

Oh yes, CAS Christmas is speaking my holiday love language - critters! I'm obsessed, lol... Something else I've been obsessed with these days is fussy cutting all the cuties out of the just past SAB paper, Penguin Playmates! What's not to love about polar bears, foxes and penguins all dressed to the nines, playing in the snow?? For today's card, I picked out three critters, and some cute trees to go with. I think this sentiment from Penguin Place sums it all up for these guys, too, lol.

Lovely - Retro Rubber #171 is asking us to bring the Fall colors this week! Gladly! I so enjoy checking my retired shelves for old faves - I really do have a system for letting go, but some of them, well, they're just keepers, lol. Like Vintage Leaves from 2018. We've had so many pretty leaf sets, but something about this one has just stayed with me. The sketchy quality of the leaves takes on color perfectly, and well, there's DIES, too. Even without any sentiments, usually a cardinal no-no for me, I still love this one! I was happy to add this perfect sentiment from last year's Painted Harvest - just right!

Wow, lol, Addicted to CAS #210 is really on a roll with me lately - circles are a favorite design element of mine! I decided to browse the retired shelves today for a fun circle, and look what I found! 2019's Lemon Zest set is still one of my faves, lol, and these re the perfect refreshing circles to roll out for this challenge! I tried to keep it fairly CAS, but I couldn't resist a tiny bit of layering to show off a retired color, too, I so miss Lemon Lime Twist, sigh...

I love our classy landscape sketch this week at Hand Stamped Sentiments #377! I couldn't resist dipping back into my dwindling supply of Heartwarming Hugs DSP - I love these sheets so much! I want to make sure I really maximize using it since it came back for a second run, lol. I added some layered wreath dies from the Seasonal Swirls set, and mixed in some "painted elements" from Christmas Season and Christmas to Remember. Love these bold greens with our Real Red, too! Such a pop! A few tiny Brushed Gold Dots finish us off! I can't wait to see YOUR takes on our wonderful sketch this week - meet you at the challenge! Christmas to Remember & Christmas Season Stamp Sets; Heartwarming Hugs DSP; Basic White , Mossy Meadow, Pear Pizzazz & Real Red CS; Real Red Ink; Seasonal Swirls & Seasonal Labels Dies; Brushed Metallic Dots; #HSS377. Oo, what a perfect theme for a great anniversary! Time Out Challenge #200 wants us to think "precious!" So, I just returned from a 3-day Centering Prayer Silent Retreat, and it was such a refreshing and rejuvenating time. I had plenty of space to reflect on the term "precious" while I was there, and to celebrate the fruits of the spirit we found. So when I spotted this quote from Romans 15:13 in my new Holy Spirit set from Divinity Designs, I knew I had found my "precious," lol. I am definitely "overflowing" right now, and hope I can share that spirit with all of you...

Ah, so excited we have my two favorite words on our Sunday Stamps #270 sketch this week - "any shape!" And I think you can't get more "any shape" than this adorable polar bear in his stripey scarf, lol. I fussy cut him from our super sweet Penguin Playmates DSP, from our SAB Holiday prizes. I even love the colors, because they have so many purple-green combos, lol. Anyway, I knew I'd be featuring this bear sometime, and today was the day! Why oh why do I not use Just Jade more? It's awesome! I can't wait to see YOUR takes on our fun sketch this week - meet you at the challenge!

Oh wow, lol, The Male Room #156 is running a "gnomes" challenge this month! Yay! So, the only gnome set I have is last year's Gnome For The Holidays, a real cutie, and I hope we get more some day soon! This one DOES include this cute little non-holiday gnome-ism, too, so I had to go for it! It has become the vehicle for me FINALLY breaking down and cutting into my precious birch sheets from our SAB Peaceful Prints pack - I'm admitting straight out I almost let my paper-hoarder's instincts take over for this one! A narrow escape has been achieved, lol. Hopefully the little snowflakes on the hat don't look TOO Christmas!

RSVP today to save your spot! Very timely - Cardz 4 Guyz #283 has a leaf theme for us this week! So, the adorable Pierced Blooms dies, that go with the In Bloom set, also has a range of pretty pierced leaves, too! How could I resist? I made a pretty woodgrain panel background from the ever-present-these-days Beauty of the Earth DSP, and then cut out a bunch of leaves in Fall colors to go with. I had originally planned for this to be a portrait card, but then I was a little generous with my sentiment banner, lol, so I turned it for this random landscape layout. I had some linen thread scraps on my desk, too, so I it had to play along!

It was pretty hard to tear my mind off those gorgeous cupcakes, but I got a good boost when I remembered this perfect chocolatey woodgrain sheet from my Beauty of the Earth DSP pack. Yay! The woodgrain made me think of leaves, so of course the stitched beauties in Love of Leaves had to come out to play, too. I even found some Pool Party twine for my tag! Still pretty yummy, in my book!
