Baby Celebrations (& Butterflies Galore Class April 11 & 13!)

4/3/2019

Aww, CAS on Friday #154 has a sweet baby challenge for us this week! I don't get to make these too often!
You know, I actually have a few sets to go for the babies these days, but I couldn't help go for A Little Wild for this one - I just love putting an elephant butt on the envelope, I guess, lol! I tried to stay true to the CAS mandate, I think I might actually be getting better at it! I still couldn't resist a few tiny sparklies, though...
A Little Wild & Special Celebrations Stamp Sets; Twinkle Twinkle DSP; Whisper White & Soft Sea Foam CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Smoky Slate & Flirty Flamingo Blends Markers; Stitched Shapes & Little Loves Framelits; Green Glitter Dots; #CASOF154.

Butterflies Galore Class April 11 & 13!
We have a couple gorgeous new butterfly sets this Spring and I think we should get out ALL the toys to do them up right! Let's hear it for wings everywhere! This class will highlight 6 all-occasion cards all featuring different elements of our amazing collections, even pulling in a few Sale-A-Bration items I saved just for this! Class includes all supplies needed (bring your own snips and fave adhesive!), drinks, snacks and a special gift from me, all for $25! This class can also be FREE with your order of $30 or more! Class is on for Thursday, April 11 at 630 pm or Saturday, April 13 at 3 pm! RSVP today to save your spot - hope you can flutter on by!

Vellum Dreams (& Man Cards 2019 Class!)

3/6/2019

Lovely - CAS on Friday #152 has a fun vellum challenge for us this week - yay!
For some reason, I really was stuck on wanting to use my Dragonfly Dreams for this one today - by hook or by crook! I though originally that I'd do something with the pretty little "spray" of dragonflies in the thinlit set, but it just didn't look how I'd envisioned, sigh. Then I realized that I could make an embossed vellum background for a larger one - I LOVE embossing vellum, and the bonus is that you can usually hide the adhesive pretty well somewhere in all that texture! I settled on my beloved Layered Leaves folder, over Pear Pizzazz, and stamped a lovely detailed dragonfly to go on top. Hopefully this is CAS enough!
Dragonfly Dreams Stamp Set; Whisper White, Pear Pizzazz & Vellum CS; Memento Tuxedo Black & Soft Sea Foam Inks; Layered Leaves DEF; Detailed Dragonfly Thinlits; Faceted Dots; #CASOF152.

Man Cards 2019
Yay! It's finally time for THE class for the men in our life! Sometimes it can be a little tough to "go manly" for our guys, but this class guarantees something for all our dudes! This class will feature 6 all-occasion "man" cards, without a doily or a butterfly in sight, lol. You'll have your choice of sentiments that most suit your needs, too! Class is $25, and provides all supplies (bring your own snips and fave adhesive!), drinks, snacks and a special gift from me! You can also take this class for FREE with your order of $30 or more! RSVP today! Class is on for Thursday, March 14 at 630 pm, or Saturday, March 16 at 3 pm. See you there!

Check out this fun tiled sketch we have for you at Try Stampin' on Tuesday #393!
So, even though we didn't SAY the squares could be any shape, I'm just going to act like we did, lol - gotta go off trail sometimes, right? I decided I wanted to do 8 of something, and I realized that the pretty X and O heart in our sorely missed Takeout Treats would be perfect - there's even a sweet sentiment to go with! And of course, the Takeout Thinlits have the heart shape included, along with that cute little 3D banner - I love it when a plan comes together!
So, what will YOU create?? Can't wait to check it out over at the challenge!

Time for another lovely landscape card at this week's Try Stampin' on Tuesday #387!
I knew I wanted to bring on some gorgeous DSP for this one, and of course that means my Frosted Floral pack! This woodsy colored sheet with just a touch of shimmer is another fave from this set, and I love the watercolor look, too. The delicate images made me think of another scripture collection, and this one from 1 Peter from Our Daily Bread's Scripture Series 3 was just right. So many great reminders in these collections!
So, what did YOU come up with? I can't wait to see over at the challenge!

I decided this layout gave me just the chance I needed to show off another new set that I've been wanting to get inky - Seize the Day. This set is from a new line of stamp styles for SU! - that they call DistINKtive - the stamps show different opacities in a single image, creating incredible detail! I had some fun layering a couple images from this fun new set, and adding some additional embellishments for the sketch - love it!
Can't wait to see what YOU come up with - see you at the challenge!

Shalom (& Christmas Cards Part 2 Oct 11 & 13!)

I'm really digging this "sunrise" sketch from Retro Rubber #96!
With the sketch in mind, I went and perused the Shelves of Retirement - such a fun past-time to walk down Memory Lane! I love the chance Retro Rubber gives me to, um, justify, hanging on to some oldies but goodies, lol. Anyway, the nice round shape on the sketch kept drawing me back to 2012's Jewish Celebrations - LOVE the artwork in this one! I wish we could get a really robust new Judaic set, though even if we did, I'm pretty sure I'd still hang on to this beauty, lol. Shalom, my friends!
Jewish Celebrations (retired-2012); Perfectly Artistic DSP (retired); Whisper White CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Lt & Med Bermuda Bay & Dk Mint Macaron Blends Markers; Layering Circles Framelits; Silver Sequins; #RR96.

It's time for another fun technique challenge here at Try Stampin' on Tuesday - fun folds! We have all different versions to inspire you, too!
For my fun fold, I browsed on line for ideas for a bit, and decided I wanted to try my hand at the "zig-zag panel card" - I love the way the layers come together on this style! Also a great way to show off BOTH sides of our gorgeous DSP, and today I get to feature the exclusive Dashing Along pack! Here are the deets on how to get it for yourself! Anyway, I floated several oval panels over each other, and added beautiful holiday details from Mistletoe Season. I love that there are facing stamps in this set!
Anyway, I can't wait to see what YOU come up with - lets have some fun-fold fun! See you at the challenge!
Mistletoe Season Stamp Set; Dashing Along DSP; Cherry Cobbler, Garden Green & Whisper White CS; Cherry Cobbler, Garden Green & Memento Tuxedo Black Inks; Layering Ovals Framelits; Red & White Pearls (salvaged from an old Paper Pumpkin, lol); #TSOTSepTech.

Painted Pastels (& All About the Stamparatus Class Aug 9 & 11!)

Another fun challenge from Back to Basics #8 - use an embossing folder! Yay!
One of my favorite and most used embossing folders this year is the lovely Layered Leaves - it just goes with so much! I decided to pull out our Painted Harvest set to go with - I've been seeing so many pretty flowers in different colors with it this week - gotta get in on that! I stuck with my subtles collection for my flower pairings - so soft! I went a little nuts and made three combos - I think I covered up too much of my embossing - eek! Still, lots of fun, I even got some fussy cutting time - yay!
PS. August 1 marks the start of some great new holiday promotions - Bonus Days are back, and there's a gorgeous new suite, Color Your Season, available, with NEW watercolor pencils!

Succulent Thanks (& Catch Up Classes 7-21!)

Love our combo at this week's Fusion "Cactus Door" challenge - perfect for AZ!
I knew as soon as I saw the inspiration pic I would be pulling out my retired Succulent Garden DSP. What's funny is, I never did get the stamp set and framelits that are part of this suite, I just wanted that gorgeous paper! With the return of Mint Macaron to our color lineup, I have a feeling you might be seeing more of it, lol. Anyway, this card is also maybe the second time EVER that I have fussy cut a DSP element to feature (no stamp set, remember??) and I love how easy it was and how cool it came out! A touch of woodgrain to make a nod to the door, and I am DONE!
