 Now THIS is something to celebrate - Festive Friday #0142 is featuring World Gratitude Day! Let's play! 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! Anyone else loving Lemon Lime Twist & Granny Apple Green together?? Yum! Vertical Blooms Stamp Set; Basic White & Lemon Lime Twist CS; Granny Apple Green, Lemon Lime Twist & Daffodil Delight Inks; Lemon Lime Twist Ribbon (from the Ribbon Duo Pack); Parakeet Party Matte Dots; #FF0142.

 Ahoy! This is a theme I've seen a couple times before - but now Cardz 4 Guyz #327 is having an "on the water" theme! I had to pull out my On The Ocean set again, so many fun shapes in this one! 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. I added some clouds and seagulls, and finished with a few Lost Lagoon Tinsel Gems - lots of blues today, lol. I'm also excited that this card can double as my team sketch challenge inspiration - woo!

Excellent - Cardz 4 Guyz #325 would like something clean and simple! I'm slowly getting better at these, lol. This time of year around here, we have serious ice cream on the brain pretty much ALL the time, lol. So I couldn't get past my Share a Milkshake set today! For the CAS brief, I decided to make the stamping all one layer, though I did have to try that corner detail idea from yesterday again. Since I was keeping it all one layer, I knew I needed to be strategic about my colors, though I still wanted it summery! So I hit on a combo of Lemon Lime Twist, Pecan Pie and some details in Cherry Cobbler. Hey, these would ALL make great shake flavors, too! I did quite a bit of stamping off to get the shading right, and I'm really happy with the result! Share a Milkshake Stamp Set; Basic White & Pecan Pie CS; Lemon Lime Twist, Pecan Pie & Cherry Cobbler Inks; Parakeet Party Matte Decorative Dots; #C4G325.   Critters Class 2023

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!

I felt like this sketch called for some drama, and since the lovely tree in our Treasured Kindness set JUST arrived, I ran with that! I guessed, correctly I think, that the tree would be perfect as a large circle element, and to bump it up even more, I went rogue with colors so I could pull in the gorgeous Sun Prints DSP. I've really been playing with stamping things in non-realistic colors lately, it's growing on me! I can't wait to see YOUR takes on our fun sketch - meet you at the challenge! Treasured Kindness Stamp Set; Sun Prints DSP; Basic White & Sahara Sand CS; Night of Navy, Sahara Sand & So Saffron Inks; Stylish Shapes Dies; Basics EF; Enamel Dot Essentials in Night of Navy; #AYSI296.

I decided to go with my Adventurous Journey set for this one - kayaking is a GREAT sport! I love to color this guy in, and float him over a cool puddle cut with our Diorama Dies, lol. So fun! I should add a fishing pole somehow!

I happen to have a new EF burning a hole on my desk right now - I HAVE to use my new Legendary Ride suite today! I decided to do a layered "border" for this one, and left a nice wide margin for my new Metal Plate EF. I did that layer in our retired Galvanized Metallic paper - love the look with my nice "chopper," lol. I added a panel of the very cool DSP, with a band of the reverse side that I also used on the envelope. I popped up my bike and sentiment, and threw on some flames at the end - I even squeezed on some "stud" embellies. Very manly, indeed, lol.

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 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.
