What a fun and animates sketch at this week's Match The Sketch #206! I'll be working in this crisp inspiration pic from Just Add Ink #389, too! So, the inspiration picture definitely sent me to my Christmas pines suite - LOVE that set! I love to play with our neutrals with it, and to make all different kinds of pine cones - there's a whole wardrobe of them, lol. I stuck with the Crumb Cake/Old Olive color scheme pretty closely as well, and came up with this pine cone extravaganza - yay!

Oh my gosh, Retro Rubber #77 has made an inspiration pic just for me, I swear! Totally adding in my fave holiday colors for SU Only #189, too! I am ECSTATIC that my beloved Loads of Love (and all its toys) get to come out for some ink this season! I just can't seem to ever let this baby go, but as I've used it less often, whenever I do, the full truck complement has to come out, too, lol. Today we're taking a sparkly drive through the woods, with loads of presents to share, all in my fave Christmas colors: Real Red. Old Olive, Crumb Cake and Chocolate Chip. I love how well the Stamp-A-Ma-Jig works when you pull out your wood blocks! Ah, only two weeks left!

I think Freshly Made Sketch #316 gives me plenty of snow room, too! I FINALLY got a chance to use the winter-themed elements in Colorful Seasons today, lol - those snowflakes have been burning a hole in the Big Shot shelf, I swear! I liked the look of the Champagne Foil earlier this week, I decided to pull it out again, though this time over Dapper Denim. I think I'd have a hard time picking a favorite combo, here...

I think I'll use Try Stampin' on Tuesday #351's sketch to help me along! I'm adding in the festive colors from Color Throwdown # 472 for good measure, too! So that cute little Santa Hat inspiration pic got me to thinking about animals and hats, and I was reminded that I have carefully preserved my old Barnyard Babies stamp set. This little lamb (along with the piggy, but really they're ALL adorbs) is one of the main reasons I can't let this one get away yet. So even though it's a tiny one, this Santa Hat is for you - Fleece Navidad!

It's going to look winter-rich in these gorgeous colors from Sunday Stamps #167, too! Paper Craft Crew #271 will be the perfect layout for it, as well! So, I was saddened to read that the wonderful Christmas Quilt is set to retire at the end of this Holiday Catty {SOB}... What a bummer! I know I'll be hanging on to mine for quilts for all seasons, lol, but it always stresses me out a little when one of my faves has to move along, sigh. Make sure to get yours before it's gone for good if you haven't already! And see you at the challenge - free-for-all for all!

I'm combining this one with the FUN challenge from Paper Players #373, too - Christmas Baking! I tried to resist, but I just couldn't help myself - I had to take a little trip to the past and pull in my retired Candy Cane Christmas suite, lol. The little cookie patterns are just too cute, and the yummy sentiments are just too perfect to go with them! Oh well, when it comes to Christmas baking, we all just have to take one for the elf team, lol.

It'll be even more fun in these tasty colors from As You See It #164! So, considering the sketch, I couldn't resist pulling out my next preview set, Amazing Congratulations. This set was one of the used to demonstrate the incredible new device, the Stamparatus, which has also converted me to a placement tool believer! I can't wait for us to try this! In teh meantime, I held my breath and knocked out this three-step stamp by hand today, and I LOVE how it came out! There's an outline, and two "fill-in" stamps, that you can do in color grades or mixes, so fun! And of course, six additional phrases to go with the big congrats, lol. I had to do a landscape version of this sketch to get it all on there, but it's still amazing!

So, I ended up cheating just a tiny little bit - I used Champagne instead of Gold, which I think is perfectly OK, right? If one had to choose, who wouldn't take champagne anyway? Am I right?? Lol, I think it would also be cruel to make someone choose! Anyway, I had zipped merrily along before I realized, but I do LOVE it against the Cherry Cobbler! I even had some champagne sequins left over from my old Fancy Frost sequins mix!

A pretty sketch in ovals this week from Freshly Made Sketch #315! I think it will be gorgeous in these sophisticated colors from Color Throwdown #471! Another set that hasn't gotten much ink time from me this season is the gorgeous Star of Light. I love the thinlits for this set so much!You can make everything shiny and glittery, or, as I decided to do today, you can keep it a little subdued but super classy. The sentiments especially are wonderful, as well. I tried to keep this one a little less shiny - and I love it! Star of Light Stamp Set; Year of Cheer DSP; Whisper White & Basic Black CS; Memento Tuxedo Black & Smoky Slate Inks; Stitched Shapes Framelits; Starlight Thinlits; Gold Sequins; #FMS315; #CTD471. Loving these cool arrangements of shapes lately from Match the Sketch #205! I'm adding in Just Add Ink #388's "add glitter" challenge, too! I really have Christmas cards on the brain right now - usually by now I'm a bit burnt out, but I keep getting the sensation that I haven't inked everyone up enough, lol. Case in point (God, I crack myself up) this sweet snuggly reindeer in a sweater. At least, that's how I think of this reindeer! This set was a total fluke for me - I didn't expect to earn it in time to use in a class, so I didn't promote it very much. I did end up using it for a note set in my annual packaging class, but it hasn't hit the blog as much as I'd like. So he had to get all dolled up for today! Snuggles!!
