We have a super exciting theme for you this round at As You See It #300 - adventure! Also, to celebrate our BIG 300, we will have SIX winners for this challenge, one for each design team member, and every winner will be eligible for a prize from either Stampin' Up! or Clarity, depending on your market! Woo hoo! Show us what you got! I totally knew I wanted to combine two sets for this one - the perfect sentiment is from our new Fun On Wheels set, and I HAD to create the setting with elements from our just-retired Greatest Journey suite! I still love this DSP so much, and I am prepared for a long hoarding life on this one, lol. Anyway, I thought at first I'd do something with the fun skateboard from the set, but I wanted to go all extreme for our brief! I'd say this hot pink biker is going over the top! I can't wait to see where YOU head on your adventure - meet you at the challenge! Fun On Wheels Stamp Set; Enjoy the Journey DSP (retired); Basic White & Melon Mambo CS; Melon Mambo Ink; Greatest Journey Dies (retired); Melon Mambo Glossy Dots; #AYSI300. Man Cards 2023 on June 10!

Love it! Shopping Our Stash #497 is called "You're So Sweet!" and they want us to feature something sweet on our cards! Since we've already broken 100 degrees here in AZ (sigh) when I think of something sweet, I tend to lean towards ice cream, lol. And my favorite popsicle stamp is STILL from the April 2021 Paper Pumpkin, So Cool! And my favorite place to stamp it is also STILL on the Ice Cream Corner DSP - LOVE those color washes! I did 3 of them today, in yummy colors, and floated everything over the pretty popsicle sheet, too. I used the Pumpkin sentiment as well, but I couldn't resist adding the little "hope it's sweet" line from the actual stamp set that goes with this paper, lol, Sweet Ice Cream. A few Glossy Dots finishes us off! So Cool Paper Pumpkin (April 2021) & Sweet Ice Cream (retired 2022) Stamp Sets; Ice Cream Corner DSP (retired); Basic White, Blackberry Bliss & Purple Posy (retired) CS; Memento Tuxedo Black & Black Berry Bliss Inks; Crumb Cake Blends Marker; Stylish Shapes Dies; Gorgeous Grapes Glossy Dots; #SOS497. So excited - it' my turn to host the sketch at Sunday Stamps #310 this week! I decided to try a little stretch (for me, lol) and go for a square layout! The timing for this one is perfect - I have a dear friend who has a pen pal (remember those?) who is turning 96! Wow! She asked if I could make a special card for a special lady, and she had lots of details she wanted included. Purples, roses, textures, pearls, those are all by request, and they gave me a chance to finally try out the gorgeous Happiness Abounds set. I'm REALLY late coming to this one - I was letting it pass me by, when I realized, I somehow have no rose sets! Not sure how that happened, but this is a beautiful choice for that! There's also a very personalized inside panel, that really speaks to their loving correspondence. Such a privilege to create! I can't wait to see YOUR creations for this one, too - meet you at the challenge! Happiness Abounds Stamp Set; Basic White, Purple Posy (retired), Blackberry Bliss, Fresh Freesia (retired) & Rich Razzleberry CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Fresh Freesia (retired), Blackberry Bliss, Rich Razzleberry, Old Olive & Daffodil Delight Blends Markers; Blossoming Happiness & Harvest Dies; Basics EF Collection; Gold Pearls; #SSC310. In celebration of their 9th birthday, AAA #240 is looking for a pink birthday card - no problem! I knew the lovely dies in our new Cheerful Daisies would be just right - so pretty to layer! I combined Bubble Bath & Melon Mambo for these - and I love the effect, lol. I kept my background white for the CAS brief, popped up my birthday sentiment, and finished with a few Melon Mambo dots - I think CAS is starting to grow on me. Just a tiny bit. Lol. Happy birthday, AAA! Cheerful Daisies Stamp Set; Basic White, Bubble Bath & Melon Mambo CS; Melon Mambo & Bubble Bath Inks; Cheerful Daisies Dies; Melon Mambo Glossy Dots; #AAA240.

We want to see something masculine this round at Make My Monday #201! This seemed like the perfect chance to break in my new Level Complete stamp set - chock full of gamer gear and arcade fonts, lol. I also added in this bright orange sheet from the Stargazing DSP pack - so many cool cosmic patterns! Did anyone else hang out in Time Out to play games, with an Orange Julius from next door? Those were the days, lol. We always had some quarters or tokens in our pockets! We sure didn't have these cool controllers back then, lol.

Lol, a new catalog is the PERFECT time to play at NBUS #50 - LOTS to choose from! I think today I'll debut our So Refreshing stamp set - perfect for summer! And of course, it has a set of awesome dies, too - with extras, too, do you like my picnic blanket? Anyway, I put together our new Lemon Lolly with Daffodil Delight today, to see what would happen. Looks like it's working out pretty good! I also deliberately played with all the two- and three-step stamping - I could always use more practice at that, lol. I think this fresh pitcher and tall cool drink are just right together - ahhhhh! So Refreshing Stamp Set; Lemon Lolly DSP; Basic White, Daffodil Delight & Pool Party CS; Memento Tuxedo Black, Pool Party, Lemon Lolly, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green & Lemon Lime Twist Inks; So Refreshing & Layering Circles Dies; Glossy Dots in Daffodil Delight; #NBUS50. Oh, good one! Balloons are the perfect birthday element to include for AAA Birthday #49! And of course, we have our new Beautiful Balloons suite we can celebrate with! I wanted to pull in some colors from outside the glorious DSP this time - I think I'm really digging Bubble Bath with Blackberry Bliss and Melon Mambo - what do you think?? I kept the background simple, but played with added strings instead of streamers this time, and the pretty curved sentiment to crown the big balloon, too. I finished with a few Pastel Sequins for some extra sparkle! Beautiful Balloons Stamp Set; Basic White, Blackberry Bliss & Bubble Bath CS; Bubble Bath, Blackberry Bliss & Melon Mambo Inks; Beautiful Balloons Dies; Pastel Adhesive-Backed Sequins; #AAAB49.

Class is on for Saturday, May 13 at 2 pm - RSVP today to save your spot! What a fun way to think of color - AAA #239 would like us to pick a "hot" or a "cold" color scheme - AND keep it CAS! I think I'll my new guy Chuck show off his hotness today, lol. This is my first dabble with our new Hey Chuck set (goes with our Hey Chick sets, remember them?) and he is definitely one hot dude! He's showing off his skate-boarding skills today, and having a blast doing it! The dies that go with this set are perfect, and there are even a couple extras, like this sunburst I put together for his backdrop. Go get 'em, Chuck!

After a few false starts, I settled on Birthday-Punch-Pens, and I pulled out my ill-fated Carry On hostess set from 2012! I've always been so grateful I managed to snag one before it got pulled - the "carry on" tag line is one my grandmother used a lot, as an English war bride - she even worked in Churchill's Underground! I think she would laugh at all the funny takes there are on this deeply meaningful campaign slogan, though I never lose sight of its origin! I can't wait to see YOUR tic-tac-toe winner, too - meet you at the challenge!

Class is on for Saturday, May 13 at 2 pm - RSVP today to save your spot! I'm so excited to make my debut on Make My Monday #200 as a new design team member! Eee! This round, we want to see it CAS, with a base and no more than one layer! I almost hate to do it for a CAS card, but I can't hold out any longer on debuting my Zany Zoo set, lol. This SO does not do justice to the many fun goodies that are in this suite! Even so, this little raccoon was getting quite bent that they've been waiting so long, so it had to be done! Since I was keeping to one layer over my base, I opted for a bold birthday color for my base - Berry Burst! I was so happy to see this color return, yum! I even still have a few first-round extras too, like the pretty DSP I used on the envelope! I added a narrow strip to my inside layer as well, and dressed up my balloons with some Wink of Stella! I can't wait to see YOUR CAS creations for us, too - meet you at the challenge!
