 Goodness, how could I not participate in something called National Wine Day! Thank goodness Festive Friday #184 is keeping me informed, lol! Rather than focus on wine, though, I decided to pull my Bubble Over set from 2019 - love these bottles, and I think I can hit a few items on the inspo list with it for sure! I stamped up a couple of pop bottles, one in Cherry Cobbler and one in Real Red, and I swapped out the colors for the extra details, too - I'm thinking cherry sodas and sarsaparillas here! I added some cute bubbles, and some Cherry Cobbler berries, and some (shiny!) silver bottle caps to each bottle, too, of course, lol. I'm pretty sure this is a "drink themed sentiment," too, so I'm counting that item as well, lol, giving me 5 hits! Yes! Bubble Over Stamp Set (retired); Cherry Cobbler DSP; Basic White & Cherry Cobbler CS; Cherry Cobbler & Real Red Inks; Bottles & Bubbles Dies (retired); Cherry Cobbler Berries; #FF0184.

 Oh, darling! Check out this sweet basket of flower cookies at this round of If You Give a Crafter a Cookie #204! Just beautiful! These gorgeous cookies reminded me SO MUCH of the fabulous dies in our old In Bloom bundle, I headed straight for the set to start cranking out some flowers! I did a background in Crumb Cake, sort of like the basket, but I remembered to use my Stitched Greenery die on it, at least. Did the envelope flap with it, too - so cool! Next up some flowers in all those sweet colors - I pulled in Pool Party, Calypso Coral and So Saffron, with a couple small White ones - not quite too cute to eat like the inspiration, but very pretty all the same! In Bloom Stamp Set (retired 2022); Basic White, Crumb Cake, Pool Party, So Saffron & Calypso Coral CS; Calypso Coral Ink; Stitched Greenery & Pierced Blooms (retired) Dies; Calypso Coral Iridescent Gems; #Cookie204.   Critter Class 2025!

Since I have a golfer in the house, lol, I didn't shy away from the golf celebration! I pulled out my ancient Fore! stamp set from 1997 for this awesome bag of clubs, and built my sentiment from 2020's Clubhouse set - such a riot! I pulled some Mossy Meadow to float this pretty plaid over from the Timeless Plaid DSP pack, and added some Linen Thread for my twine. I even finished with a few Crumb Cake Enamel Dot Essentials - that's pretty coordinated for my guy, lol... Fore!

Time to get cookin' again with us at As You See It #347! Check out our delicious recipe, too! As soon as I saw that "animal" suggestion, I KNEW I was pulling out my Turtle-y Awesome suite! These guys are so cute - and super fun to color, too, so that knocks out another ingredient! Since dies and an embossing folder are also part of this suite, that was a cinch to add as well, so all I had to come up with was this Garden Green twine - it almost disappears in all those stripes, lol. I was so excited to try out some of the wardrobe accessories for my turtle - his apron and chef hat are so spiffy! I can't wait to see what YOU cook up for this round - meet you at the challenge! Turtle-y Awesome Stamps & Dies; Turtle-y Cute DSP; Basic White & Garden Green CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Granny Apple Green, Soft Sea Foam, Shaded Spruce, Flirty Flamingo, Daffodil Delight, Gray Granite & Pecan Pie Blends Markers; Turtle Textures EF; Garden Green Twine; Earth Tone Shimmer Gems; #AYSI347.   Such a pretty combo at this round of In{k}spire Me #560! I played around with the proposed colors for a bit before regretfully deciding not to use them. I'm a little pastel-ed out, lol. I love the sketch, though! After so much time on the colors, I quickly jumped to this fast and elegant design! I have been stewing over how to use this big bunch of balloons from the die-cut sheets in the Wildflower Birthday DSP pack, and I think today is the day! I set up this pretty gold-foiled background sheet, and cut a Deckled Circle to fit the balloons in White. I thought at first the balloons would be TOO big, then I realized tilting them for an action shot would be just right! I simple Birthday sentiment from Simply Said makes the perfect banner below. So quick and easy! Simply Said Stamp Set; Wildflower Birthday DSP; Basic White & Blueberry Bushel CS; Blueberry Bushel Ink; Deckled Circle Dies; Blueberry Bushel Foiled Gems; #IMC560.   Such an honor to guest design for Time Out Challenges #287 this round! Check out this party picture! I found this one to be a real stumper! I don't have many (or any?) fancy dress stamps, OR masks, which actually surprised me! So I went with the colors, and pulled in our delightful Turtle-y Awesome Suite again. This shell sheet in Shaded Spruce is such a great match for the greens, I couldn't resist! I made up a scrappy background for this handsome drummer, and tucked on the birthday sentiment to go with. I finished with a few Loose Daisy Embellishments to go with the flowers in the inspiration pic - maybe I should have done more! I hope you have a chance to join in on this fun inspiration at Time Out Challenges this round - see you there!

So excited to play the new round at NBUS #73! I have lots of new goodies to break in! Today's sneak peek winner is the Party Piggy bundle! This little cutie will be available soon from our upcoming Online Exclusives - and he's a major ham! The sweet set also has a little set of dies to go with it, AND, he has little shaker cups for his tum-tum, too! a shaker pig! The world is a great place indeed! I went for a simple and quick version today to give him a go: starting with stamping him directly on Petal Pink, and adding some tone detail with Blends Markers. I added the party hat and flags, too, and stuck with the birthday sentiment. I was so pleased to realize that I had this dotty Petal Pink sheet in my retired Sale-a-Bration Fruit Salad DSP! I finished with a few Petal Pink Foiled Gems, too!

Oo, love this - FarmQuest #70 wants to see ladybugs! I decided to go back to 2020's Little Ladybug for this one - so many cuties there! I decided to do the big flower in the set to give my shy little bug somewhere to perch - see how she peeks over her shoulder? So sweet! Anyway, this "cute as a bug" sentiment has always been my favorite in this set, so of course I had to use that, too, though I stamped Happy Birthday inside! It all really pops against this pretty Real Red background from our just-retired Fruit Salad DSP! Love it!

Such a cute landscape sketch at this round of Sketch Saturday #773! Once again, the words "any shape" started the wheels turning in my head, lol, and I thought, hey, a turtle makes a great any shape, lol. That was it! I came up with my layers of greens and DSPs, and even tried my hand at fussy cutting the sentiment, after I picked my horn-blowing turtle to come out to play, too! This sketch also gave me a chance to finally try this Bordered Ribbon - so soft and flexible, I love it! I added some texture and a few Green Hexagons, and I'm all set! So fun! Turtle-y Awesome Stamp Set; Turtle-y Cute DSP; Basic White, Soft Sea Foam & Granny Apple Green CS; Granny Apple Green Ink; Turtle Textures EF; Bordered Ribbon; Shades of Green Hexagons; #SS773.   We are working the fold this round at Sunday Stamps #358! This kind of folded design is PERFECT for showing off both sides of our gorgeous DSP! And what better time to roll out another sneak peek at an upcoming suite?? Today's card features our new Cheers & Sips suite, which will be available as an online exclusive - and this is one that I just got the whole suite, it's so cute! You get to see the cute DSP, stamps and embellishments today, but there's also ribbon and embossing folders that I couldn't squeeze in, lol. Just all so cute, and so refreshing in time for summer! I'm pretty sure I'll be using a lot of our returning Strawberry Slush for this suite, too, lol. My cute drinks are fussy cut from another one of the DSP sheets, too! I can't wait to see YOUR pretty folds, too - meet you at the challenge!
