Sweet Citrus Thanks (& Birthday Cards Jan 14!)

So excited that I get a chance to play at the Alphabet Blog Challenge - this round, T is for Thank You!
What a perfect straight line to break out my new Sweet Citrus bundle, too, lol.  Another fun new hybrid set to play with!  I didn't do any of the hybrid embossing today, I'm too fascinated by the gorgeous and easy two-step stamping for the citrus, and super easy to cut out with the dies!  I did my fruits all in Mango Melody today, full strength on the peels, and then stamped off for the centers.  There's even two dies for the leaves, so I don't have to run everything through multiple times, lol.  I foresee a lot of juicing in my future!

I am SO Excited that the first round of the Christmas Specials at In{k}spire Me #492 is gift tags!  Love them!
I decided to pull out my Decorated With Happiness set AGAIN, lol.  Really, it's just so versatile!  I cut a tag trio using my beloved Tailor Made Tags Dies, along with the hole protectors, and had some fun doing some single ornament arrangements.  For a final touch of sparkle, I added some tiny Iridescent Rhinestones.  Even with using the dies for the ornaments and tags, this little project was quick!  They're so adorable, and the timing is perfect, since I have a pile of boxes from Amazon to get going on, lol.

I always have to laugh when I see this graphic - Cupcake Inspirations #556 is "anything goes," and it's brilliant!
I'm going off the reservation a bit again today with another non-SU set, lol.  A few weeks ago, I won top pick for a prize at Time Out Challenge #223 - wow!  The prize was a $25 certificate to Newton's Nook, so I did a little shopping on them, lol.  OF COURSE I found a new chicken set to play with - adorable!  What totally caught my eye was this hilarious sentiment - I just couldn't resist!  Thanks TOC!  Such a fun prize!  I think "chicken butt" is just right for anything goes, lol...

Fall Fern (& Christmas Cards Part 2 Oct 15!)

Shopping Our Stash #480 is running a "leaf me alone" challenge this round - so cute!
I've been really wanting to try Forever Fern in Fall colors for a while now - today is the day!  I stamped three different stems in Cajun Craze, Pumpkin Pie and Crushed Curry.  I tried to make them all radiate from a focal point, where I popped up my sentiment in Espresso.  I thought some gold accents would go well, too, so I tousled some Metallic Gold Thread behind that as well, and added a few Brushed Gold Dots.  I still needed a little something, so I threw on three tiny springs I cut with the matching dies, too.  Time to stop!

I hope you like my spooky colors this round at As You See It #285!
I decided to go back to 2018's Sweet Home bundle to pull this one off!  I had a good time building my haunted home in all our colors, lol.  I was even able to use one of our tiny Matte Dots for the door knob!  The Starry Sky bats almost broke me, but I pushed through it, lol.  All oldies here, in new colors!  So fun!
I can't wait to see what YOU come up with for these crazy colors - meet you there!

Pink Birthday Piggy (& Fall Cards Class Sep 10!)

Lol, so many fun possibilities for this week's Addicted to CAS #227 "pink" challenge - woo!
For me, when I looked over my possible "pink" sets, the one that jumped out was This Birthday Piggy!  Of COURSE a little piggy would be perfect in pink!  I went with this little sleepyhead and made sure to bring on the pink - I don't think I've stamped this one before!  What's even cuter about this one is the inside sentiment:  "Go to your happy place and stay there all day!"  Adorable!   I snuck in a few Polished Pink Opal Rounds to finish things off - hopefully I have enough white space left to still qualify as CAS!
This Birthday Piggy Stamp Set; Basic White & Polished Pink CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Flirty Flamingo, Polished Pink, Crumb Cake, Old Olive & So Saffron Blends Markers; Polished Pink Opal Rounds; #ATCAS227.

Making Waves (& Annual Catty Roundup Aug 13!)

Very cool theme this round at Can You Handle the Pressure - "Beach!"
Digging through my folder stash, I came across the retired "Ruffled" - I've always felt like this one was a great one for stylized waves and water!  I did my embossed panel in Pool Party, over some Crumb Cake for "sand," and went to look for a likely stamp set to add.  I almost pulled the new lighthouse set (love it!) but in the end I wanted to do some curvy swimsuits from Sunny Splash.  These are such vintage bathing beauties, lol, and they're fun to match up with our vibrant new In Colors!  I even doctored up a label strip to order for the sentiment!

Perfect timing - Cardz 4 Guyz #299 is running a "summer" theme this round!  Yay!
One of our favorite summer activities is ROAD TRIPS, lol!  There's nothing like a cooler full of yummy snacks, a full gas tank, a car load of happy dogs, and an open road, lol.  We have spent so many lazy summer days this way, and I was happy to make a little card celebrating it!  I found some fun diecuts in the He's the Man DSP, and added this "adventure" sentiment to go with - good times ahead!

Wow, here's a pretty combo - check out those colorful plates at Fusion's Rainbow Plates challenge!
I had to pull out some cute paper for this one - I wanted to make my BACKGROUND be rainbow-esque, and save the calm solids for the details.  This is a little backwards to my usual style!  Anyway, I've also been wanting to use this "your way" sentiment for a while - this is the one I got this set for, of course, lol.  I was bummed to see Happy & Heartfelt is retiring - I will definitely be keeping it around a while!

Time for another "fill in the blank" challenge this week at As You See It #274 - for the best thing about mothers!
This one was a bit of a stumper for me, lol.  The BEST thing?  Sheesh, that's a tall order!  I spent some time calling up some happy mom memories of my own, and finally decided what really came to mind for me was PRESENCE.  The best thing about mothers is "being there," and being part of their children's lives, in a supportive, loving way.  In my life, my happiest memories of times with my own mom are always over a teacup, lol, which was how we celebrated being together.  Good times, and yummy ones, too, lol.  How lucky that we have a new stamp suite just for tea!  Yay!
I can't wait to see YOUR answers to this one, AND your projects!  Meet you there!
