So Fancy Now

3/21/2021

Yum! We're going tropical at this week's Sunday Stamps #253!
I couldn't resist pulling out my trusty In Bloom set again for this one - I love these happy flower dies so much! All those little stitching details really add to the cuteness, and look how fresh and vibrant they look in our colors! So fun! I even found a few brown sequins in the back of a drawer (I think from an old Paper Pumpkin) to add to my tiny little flowers for centers, too - yay!
So where will our colors take YOU?? I can't wait to see, over at the challenge!

Berry Best Fold

Oh, here's a fun challenge! Stamping Pals Challenge #13 is a "fab" fold challenge!
I decided to show off some more yummy DSP, and I'm just not done with the gorgeous Berry Delightful paper from Sale-A-Bration! Since I was already pulling in the DSP, I decided to add in the stamp set, too - Berry Blessings. I ended up with a modified "flap-fold," landscape. Don't laugh, I really fret over what to call things, lol. But basically, I just wanted to play around with moving the fold-over flap around, so I slid it down to the bottom, and it just worked out perfect that I could add my sentiment along the bottom left to help hold it closed. What a fun time!

Outstanding Flamingo

So cute - Addicted to CAS #192 has an "animal" challenge for us this week!
One of the sets that didn't make the cut into critter class is Friendly Flamingo. I love the images in this set, and the dies are awesome! I've been having trouble with the shading, though, so I just couldn't get it into class, and I'm still struggling a bit. Today I tried stamping this fine bird in Basic Gray, and then adding the color with Blends, I like this better than when I've stamped in Black - that was too muted. I might be getting closer! Another thing I love about this set is the perfect sentiments - like today's!

Seeing Goats

We have some lovely crisp colors to play with at this week's As You See It #243!
I'm not sure what it says about me, but when I saw these colors, the first thing I thought of was our Way To Goat set, lol. Definitely goat and goat accessory colors, in my mind! Now, I thought I was going to sneak the little can in there so that could be my Poppy Parade elements, but then I decided I wanted this one wit the cute flower instead - he looks very meditative, I think! So, lots of Sahara Sand for me, with touches of the rest of the colors, but I love how simple and fun this card was!

Bring on the shapes with us this week at Try Stampin' on Tuesday #491!
Ah, so nice to see my two favorite little words - "any shape!" I went all out and did some snail shapes, lol, from our new Snailed It suite! These guys are the cutest (and gals, I suppose, check out those eyelashes!) and there's even some great ones to fussy cut from the DSP that goes with, like these two on today's card! I went with a nice bold contrast in my colors, and even finally used my Double Oval punch - woo hoo! I can't wait to see what YOU come up with - meet you at the challenge!

I'm really liking the look of this cute landscape challenge at this week's Paper Craft Crew #407!
And what a great chance it is to showcase a new bundle, along with it's Sale-A-Bration DSP! I'll just put right out there that this paper is the whole reason I got the set, lol, even though I get very few new flower sets these days. It's just so cheery and bubbly, perfect colors, and the dies are super interesting and fun - a win all around! Can't wait for you to play with this set!

LOVE the travel theme at this month's The Male Room #142 - but how to narrow down all the places I want to go these days??
The short answer is, I can't, lol. Camping? Maui? Banff Springs? Nova Scotia? London? I have a different dream pretty much every night of all the places I'm missing, lol, so I decided to just go with the gorgeous globe in Beautiful World - I think I can even see Hawaii on here! I added some beautiful map paper from the World of Good DSP pack, and kept it simple and quick - just right for a guy, lol. One day, we'll be back to all our fave places, and it'll be great, I know!

We have a banner landscape for you here at Fab Friday #193 this week!
I can't resist playing up some more new goodies today, lol - have you seen the GORGEOUS In Good Taste DSP yet? All photo papers, just amazing designer elements, AND it's a double pack - so much to choose from! I figured it would make a frosting-esque background for the delicate Many Medallions diecut, and this simple Many Mates congrats over all - I even put in my touch of lace, and didn't go blind! Woo hoo!
I can't see what YOU do with this week's sketch - meet you at the challenge!

This'll be fun - The Sisterhood of Crafters has a stenciling challenge for us this week!
I'm glad to have this chance - I never use my decorative masks enough - like this cool quasar-like pattern from the Pattern Party collection. I mixed in three colors with sponge daubers, another technique I love, and just let the pattern speak for itself, floating a happy sentiment right in the middle. This another great one from Best Year - the inside says, "you did it!" to go with. Simple, quick and cheery - my perfect trio!

Can you bring in the torn edge at this week's Try Stampin' on Tuesday #459? I hope so! And what a great time to have a designer's choice theme at SU Only #250!
I think this aligns all the stars for me to premier another preview set - say hello to Beautiful World! This set has some beautiful globe-themed images and sentiments, and is part of a "super suite" - that is, it has DSP, dies, ribbon, embellies, even an embossing folder - wait'll you see! I kept things fairly simple for debut day here, but I can tell already I'll be coming back again and again to this gorgeous suite!
So, what will YOU create for us? I can't wait to see you, over at the challenges!
