Very cool - Shopping Our Stash #520 is called "mamma mia!" We need a card for Mother's Day or another special woman! I'm so thrilled that I have a super sweet step-mother that I get to send cards to, now, lol, and I was just tickled thinking about her while I made this card! Welcoming Window is definitely an under-used set in my collection, but I still love it! So many fun things we can set in the cutest window, and so I have lots of flowers for Karen! Pretty greens and yellow, with Boho Blue trim on the cool window - love it! A few butterflies add just the right finishing touch! I can't wait to send this to her!

So cute - The Sisterhood of Crafters has a theme of bunnies or chicks this round! How about one of each?? As soon as I saw this challenge, I knew I wanted to pull out the February 2024 Paper Pumpkin - Sweet Springtime! Such cute images in this one, and the sweetest Easter sentiment, too. I even have the add-on dies, The Love of Spring, that has this gorgeous daffodil die in it! I did all my coloring in Blends markers this time - though I also love to do these with Water Painters - another great look! And of course, I couldn't resist floating everything over this glorious Gingham Gala DSP sheet in Lemon Lime Twist - my little hoard is dwindling! Sweet Springtime Paper Pumpkin (Feb 2024) Stamp Set; Gingham Gala DSP; Basic White & Daffodil Delight CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Crumb Cake, Bubble Bath, Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie & Lemon Lime Twist Blends Markers; #The Love of Spring Dies; Bumblebee Matte Dots; #TSOCBunnies&Chicks.

Such a sweet sketch this week at In{k}spire Me #528 - I'm letting the color challenge that goes with it slide, lol. I feel like I'm doing terrible at color challenges these days! In an effort to play other stamp sets besides my current favorite coffee set, lol, I turned to Bright Skies - those beautiful clouds are perfect for the sketch! I even still have a bit of the SAB paper still for it, so I fussy cut two particular fancy clouds I wanted for my card front! I really liked this encouraging sentiment, too, and then I finished with a few bright gems. Quick and pretty! Bright Skies Stamp Set; Sunny Days DSP; Basic White, Basic Gray & Pool Party CS; Basic Gray Ink; Banner Triple Punch; Iridescent Pastel Gems; #IMC528. Thank You Cards 2024 Class March 9!

Lol, we have such an awesome fill-in-the-blank challenge for you this round at As You See It #316! What was YOUR latest crafting purchase?? My latest stamp set is the Quiet Reflection set, which I got for an upcoming class. I sometimes find the DistINKtive style of stamps a little challenging to work with, but this one went more smoothly than for me! After a couple experiments, I opted for this "stamped off" version, as a little softer in my chosen colors, and then I layered everything up to the max using my Rectangle Stitched dies. I was able to sneak in a couple SAB goodies, too - love that! I can't wait to get a peek at YOUR new toys! Meet you at the challenge! Quiet Reflection Stamp Set; Softly Stippled DSP; Basic White, Pebbled Path & Calypso Coral CS; Calypso Coral & Pebbled Path Inks; Rectangle Stitched Dies; Calypso Coral Opague Faceted Gems; Calypso Coral Baker's Twine; #AYSI316.

We're kicking off our stampin' year with this wonderful sketch at As You See It #314! Ahhhh, my two favorite words, "any shape!" Challenge accepted, lol! What a perfect chance to break in the super cute Planted Paradise set - we were given this set for free as part of a recent event, and it had me stumped for a while! There are no sentiments with it, so I matched it with the now-available Heartfelt Hellos, a set you can earn FREE with a $50 purchase during Sale-a-Bration! When a stamp set bogs me down, my first instinct is to go crazy with the color - I think that fixes everything, lol, so I have a colorful array of pretty pots arranged around my bold sentiment. So fun! I can't wait to see YOUR creations with our pretty sketch - meet you at the challenge! Planted Paradise & Heartfelt Hellos Stamp Sets; Basic White & Pool Party CS; Azure Afternoon, Berry Burst, Pumpkin Pie, Lemon Lime Twist & Granny Apple Green Inks; Basics 2 EF; Lemon Lime Twist Tinsel Gems; #AYSI314.

I'm so excited about the theme at this round's Cardz 4 Guyz #336 - "festive creatures!" I LOVE critters! We have some awesome festive critters in our lineup this year, but I decided to dip back into the shelves of retirement for this one, lol. My cute Scottie dog needed to stretch his legs! I set up his background with this manly plaid sheet from my old Plaid Tidings pack - there's really something for every season in there!

I chose two like sheets, that had some good contrast - I just love this foxy sheet! I pulled in my recently acquired Season of Chic bundle again, too - today we have the big "thanks" and this pretty blossom detail - just right for the sketch!

Mmm, lovely snuggly colors we have this round at As You See It #309! I hope they make this sympathy card feel like a warm hug - I kept the design simple and sincere. The stamp and punch is from our new pre-release, called Heartfelt Hexagon. We get to take a sneak peek for tomorrow's World Card Making Day! I wanted to play with the set a tiny bit ahead of time, and this is where I landed. This gorgeous Copper Clay sheet is from the O Holy Night pack - I love the pattern sides almost as much as the scenery sides! I added some simple Misty Moonlight cotton ribbon, and a few first run Misty dots - I couldn't believe my eyes when I found these in a drawer, lol.

I pulled out my Vertical Blooms set for this one - love that big vertical "thanks to you" sentiment! I'm still working on building the stacked flowers - the one you see is my second attempt, lol. I do like the little trick of adding that tiny bloom trio to the top to finish it, though - closure is so good! Checking over the inspo list, I made my flowers in Daffodil Delight, and added some pretty Lemon Lime Twist ribbon, too! So I managed to hit yellow, ribbon, flowers and thank you for this one - not too bad! I finished with a few Parakeet Party Matte Dots, that match the ribbon spot on!

I started from an all-over background in the stunning-but-retired Waves of the Ocean DSP - love the look of this paper still! From there I set up a nice block to set off my lovely tall ship, and I tried my hand at fussy cutting some foamy waters for some scene setting.
