Check out these gorgeous colors we have at this round's Hand Stamped Sentiments #436! It's so funny, I know I just used this set here, but these colors said "Botanical Layers" to me AGAIN, lol! Something about the play of leaves together with the two fun greens, maybe... Anyway, this is yet another set on the retiring list, and I only JUST got this one when it made our second release of Sale-a-Bration items, lol. Oh well, at least it was free! Anyway, I did a super fussy cut of these leaves to feature with my sentiment, and then I remembered these Foiled Gems in two of our colors - perfect! I can't wait to see what YOU come up with for these colors - meet you at the challenge! Botanical Layers Stamp Set; Pretty Peacock DSP (retired); Basic White & Pretty Peacock CS; Garden Green, Pretty Peacock & Petal Pink Inks; Tasteful Labels Dies (retired); Petal Pink & Pretty Peacock Foiled Gems; #HSS436.

Yay! AAA Birthday #60 would like to see a shaker card this month - love these! I really wanted some color today - I have all these little bags of bright sequins I won in a blog challenge from Pretty Pink Posh still - how to use the green ones? In a guacamole card, of course! I'm super sad about Taco Fiesta making the retiring list this year - this one will definitely have a place of honor on my shelves of retirement! I giggled the whole time I made this card, coloring, shaking and fussy cutting! I think I need some chips tonight now, lol. Taco Fiesta Stamp Set; Flowering Zinnias DSP; Basic White & Lemon Lime Twist CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Daffodil Delight, Lemon Lime Twist, Smoky Slate, Mossy Meadow & Real Red Blends Markers; Rectangle Stitched & Stitched Shapes (retired) Dies; Green Sequins from Pretty Pink Posh; Effervescent Elements; #AAAB60. Wow, check out our cool tropical colors this round at Sunday Stamps #333! I was so excited to realized that our colors this week seemed to go perfectly with the new Adventurous Sky suite! his upcoming beauty features beautiful bi-wing planes and aerial designs, along with some super cute fonted sentiments! I'm naming my card today after the DSP, because this is ALL about the papers, plus that fun Father's Day sentiment! Two of the sheets have several ready to mount designs and tags, all you have to do is cut them apart! So fun and quick! I can't wait to see what YOU make out of all our blues this round - meet you at the challenge! Adventurous Sky Stamp Set; Take to the Sky DSP; Basic White & Night of Navy CS; Night of Navy Ink; Stylish Shapes Dies; Night of Navy Enamel Dots; Balmy Blue Twine; #SSC333. Hm, I just noticed that there's another AAA Challenge - Colourful! As soon as I saw that glorious purple board, I knew I had to join in! This seemed like a good chance to ink up my new Leaf Collection background set - this was an all-attendee giveaway at our On Stage event in Houston a couple weeks ago - such fun organic shapes! I knew I needed to combine it with something else for a sentiment at least, and I landed on Gorgeously Made for that. It has a lovely leafy sprig in the dies, and cool typeset sentiments - and it's slated to retire at the end of the current catty {SOB}. I didn't play with this set NEARLY enough to already be saying goodbye, lol. Glad I got to use it in my purple extravaganza! Leaf Collection & Gorgeously Made Stamp Sets; Basic White & Blackberry Bliss CS; Fresh Freesia, Highland Heather, Gorgeous Grape & Blackberry Bliss Inks; Gorgeously Made Dies; Purple Fine Shimmer Gems; #AAAC2. I'm not a pink girl, but I LOVE the look of our yummy colors this round at As You See It #321! I wanted to show off these beauties in a delicate way, and our upcoming Thoughtful Wishes set really helped me do that! I'm still a sucker for pretty stems, and the beautiful dies make this a joy to work with - there's even some pretty bonus dies in with this one! AND, we all know I love mixed-font sentiments, and there are several included in the set that I'm not showing off quite yet, lol. Water painters are so easy to work with, and I love the delicate wash of color they give! Super yum! I can't wait to see your lovely projects with our pretty colors - meet you at the challenge! Thoughtful Wishes Stamp Set; Flirty Flamingo DSP (retired); Basic White & Flirty Flamingo CS; Memento Tuxedo Black, Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight & Bubble Bath Inks; Thoughtful Wishes & Stylish Shapes Dies; Rainbow Dots; #AYSI321.

The inspiration cupcakes at this round's Cupcake Inspirations #591 look DELICIOUS! They make for a cool color challenge, too, lol. These colors were a total gimme to use my beloved A Little Latte DSP, and of course, the Latte Love stamp set, too, lol. I can practically smell the mocha brewing! I did a fun layout with my blue cups cut from the DSP, and used this coffee splatter scrap to good advantage, too! I love how this sentiment fits perfectly inside this stitched banner from our old Tasteful Labels dies, too - so buttoned up!

There's a really cute corner sketch at AAA Cards #262, I think I can keep it CAS, too! I decided to use some pretty DSP - and I still have a lot of my Countryside Inn pack to get through! Good thing it's carrying over this year, lol. Anyway, I also wanted to use a cute sentiment from Perennial Postage - I was a bit shocked to see that this set is on the retiring list, though the dies are staying at least, whew. So many pretty sentiments in this one, and almost all mixed fonts! The card came together pretty quick, and I added some dimension, just because, and finished with a few Navy Enamel Dots - simple and pretty!

It felt like a retro critter day today, so I went browsing and heard a little braying, lol. These guys haven't been out in a donkey's age! I floated this party animal over these happy dots from the Lighter Than Air DSP pack, and picked out the darker blue - Azure Afternoon - for my big diagonal band. I even have some Azure Afternoon dots from my Rainbow Pack - woo! I can't wait to see what YOU come up with for our fun sketch - make it Retro (older than one year!) and meet you there!

We're celebrating National Picture of a Bird Day here at Make My Monday #223! Who knew? Turns out, all the Chucks wanted to mug a bit for the camera today! I was sad to see this set on the retiring list, not that I'll be really letting it go, lol. These guys are always good for a smile and a pick-me-up! I did a kinda inchie card, with all four of the feathered gents posing for a pic, and kept them all in manly farm colors, too - so fun!

I love the inspo list at this round's Festive Friday #156 - for Earth Day! I looked over the list to get an idea, and then went tree hunting! When I spotted Plant Hope from 2010, I knew this was the one - such a perfect sentiment for Earth Day! I ended up choosing the little bonsai tree for my image as more fun to color, and I pulled this gorgeous woodgrain sheet from my Country Woods DSP pack. A bit of Linen Thread adds a touch of twine, and I still have these Opaque Faceted Dots in Pecan Pie! So that gives me neutrals, woodgrain, twine and trees - not too shabby! Plant Hope Stamp Set (retired 2010); Country Woods DSP; Basic White & Crumb Cake CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Cajun Craze, Crumb Cake & Mossy Meadow Blends Markers; Stylish Shapes Dies; Linen Thread; Pecan Pie Opaque Faceted Dots; #FF0156.
