Long Time No See (& June 28 Pumpkin Club Cancelled!)

6/18/2025

So excited to see a fun folds challenge at this round of The Male Room #199!
I decided today to try out an idea I had for one of Online Exclusive preview sets: Long Time No See!  The set has a little dachshund, AND a llama, along with a striped insert to use as an even longer neck or dog body, lol.  How could I resist??  I tried out the dog first, and made this funky double-z fold!  I had to get a little creative on the second "Z" so I could make the dog line up pretty good even when flat, lol.  What a riot!  Can't wait to try the llama!

We have a very classic sketch this round at Hand Stamped Sentiments #464 to play with!
When I went hunting for a likely set for this one, I kept in mind that it would need a good DSP to set off all those layers, too - and when I spotted this "cute" long sentiment in Otterly Amazing, I knew I had found my prize, lol.  I took my time setting up all my layers - I wanted everything to have a tiny Pretty Peacock border!  I also fussy cut this playful pair of otters from another sheet - just right for that sentiment!  I'm so happy with how this one came out - otters always remind me of our Labradors - I always called our Sophie my otter-dog, lol.  So many happy memories!

Such a great sketch this round at Try a Sketch on Tuesday #670!  I can't wait!
After a little thought, I realized I could fit in our pre-order set for our Creativity Now event next month!  We were offered the upcoming Peaceful Garden suite to go along with the event, and it will be released to all in the Holiday Mini this year.  It's gorgeous, all soft blues and neutrals, with a mix of sentiments, and lovely dies, too.  There's DSP, ribbon, embellishments and a coordinating embossing folder as well - and I almost forgot the glimmer paper mix!  A lot to keep track of, lol.  Anyway, I loved this floral sheet, and picked out the torn edge with the delicate wines and leaves in the dies.  Instead of the ribbon, I went with some Night of Navy Linen Thread, and I finished with some Hues of Blue Flowers, but the white ones, lol.  I think it all looks gorgeous over the Basic Beige, too!

Aw, a really great challenge idea at this round of FarmQuest #71 - a dogs or cats theme!
I decided to go with dogs - how not with a puppy in the house??  I couldn't resist breaking into my hoarded Playful Pets DSP for it, too - so many cute doggoes on those sheets!  I layered some squares for my card design - so dramatic with the black, white and red, BUT, I also pulled in a sentiment from a set I won on a blog challenge - Say Woof from Newton's Nook!  Really, the best doggy sentiments, lol.  I added a few more details, but really, I let the paper do the work today!

Oo, we have a doozy for you at this round of As You See It #346!  What retired crafting tool would you NEVER let go of??
For me, that tool is the Stamp-A-Ma-Jig!  I even have multiple ones, in case anything happens to one, lol.  I just love this little sucker!  Once I got the knack of how to hold everything, it's the fastest way I know to quickly stamp something in a specific place, or on a little scrap, or whatever, and it works especially awesome on wood-mounted stamps, or red rubber!  They can't all be photopolymer, lol.  To show it off, I did today's tiled bunny layout using my SAMJ and 2010's Chocolate Bunny stamp - a single wood-mount that I can never let go, lol.  Now, don't get me wrong, my Stamp-a-ratus and marker spritzer are firmly clutched in my OTHER hand, but I reach for my SAMJ all the time!
I can't wait to see YOUR answers to this thorny question, lol - meet you at the challenge!

Simplest Things (+Sympathy & Scripture Class Mar 15!)

Lol, Shopping Our Stash #542 is running a "one is the loneliest number" challenge this round - what a great name for a one layer card!
I quickly settled on our Seaside Wishes stamp set for my stamping - I have beach on the brain as we get closer to our trip to Maui!  I started with the smaller sand dollar, and knew I wanted to do some masking so I could beef up the depth a little.  After I stamped it on the card front, I stamped again on a post-it note and closely fussy cut it for my mask.  Next came the larger dollar, followed by the sentiment, some sandy texture and  a couple tiny starfish.  I love these elements!  At the last second, I added a Stitched With Whimsy border - I'm so sad these fun dies are retired, though I guess it makes no never-mind, since I keep using them anyway, lol...  One layer cards are SO growing on me!

Woo, this is a tall order!  Shopping Our Stash #541 is called "thrice as nice," and they want us to use at least THREE different DSPs on our card!  Yikes!
At first I was all in a tizzy - is that even possible??  Then I remembered the cute Fruit Salad card I did with the Everyday Arches Dies - now THERE'S a way to show off some DSP!  How about a crisp and cheery version for Christmas??  I dug out my old Let It Snow Specialty DSP pack to choose some perfect patterns - love these sheets with the glitter detail on them!  Then I stamped a nice big Christmas sentiment from Peaceful Season for the center seam - perfect!  A few Glitter Sequins is just the right finishing touch!  And if you count the envelope, I got SEVEN patterns on there!  Woo!

So cute!  Cupcake Inspirations #610 would like us to add a tag this round!
In furtherance of my ongoing Christmas Card readiness resolution, I went straight for the Greetings of the Season bundle, which has a HUGE set of tag dies to go with it!  I used an older retired paper for this one, but one that is so festive and cheerful to me - love the sketchy look of the designs in our retired Joy of Christmas pack!  I stamped the sentiment on the largest tag, and added some fancy ribbon, along with these Holly Gems & Sequins - cute and quick!

Very fun - Inspire Create Challenge #184 is back with a fancy fold challenge!
A fun fold always gives such a good chance to show off some fun DSP in new ways - even the simplest of them let you play with shapes and layers!  I pulled out a simple z-fold card today, and decided to go with the bright happy colors in Friends of the Ocean DSP pack!  I hadn't stamped the lobster yet, so he got to come out to play as well!  I went right for one of the color combos suggested in the catty - Summer Sky and Pool Party - looks so good!  I really haven't been using Summer Sky as much as I thought I would - so nice to have some paper inspiration for it finally!

Woo hoo!  The Male Room #194 is starting the New Year off with a clean and simple challenge!  Yes!
I have just the thing from the upcoming Online Exclusive preorder, too, lol.  Here's a peek at Detailed Succulent, a lovely multi-step set!  It's so pretty, and being from Arizona, I really can't lay off anything cactus or succulent themed, lol.  The shoe fits!  Anyway, I also couldn't resist featuring this with some retired Soft Succulent details - made for each other!  I started with a background of Soft Succulent for my beauty, then added a stamped-off layer of Highland Heather - it looks like so many of the plantings I see in the yards around here!  I added a spray of speckles for some texture, and finished with my last 5 Soft Succulent Opal Rounds.  Love it!
