We're mixing it up again at this week's Try Stampin' on Tuesday #440 - come join us!
I really wanted to try for both sides of the challenge this week - but what could I do with that "wet" cue word??  Something ocean?  Maybe fish?  Then I remembered the "umbrella kiss" from yesterday's Silhouette Scenes - perfect!  And I even have a (very) few sheets of the gorgeous See A Silhouette paper!  I picked this lovely swirly one in blues to be most like water for my background, and heat embossed my sweet couple in shimmer black to really stand out.  Love it!
So, what will YOU create for our Mix-It-Up?  I can't wait to see your creations, over at the challenge!
Silhouette Scenes Stamp Set; See A Silhouette DSP; Whisper White, Basic Black & Pacific Point CS; Versamark Ink; Shimmer Black EP; Circles Collection Dies (retired); Dapper Denim Glimmer Dots (retired-shhh!); #TSOT440.

Aw, Hand Stamped Sentiments #326 has a wonderful trio of layered shapes for us this week!
I've been doing quite a bit of Christmas lately, how about a color break?  These rainbow balloons ought to do just the trick, lol, especially since we've had a tiny cold snap here in Arizona this week.  We actually had to turn on the heat the other day!! {GASP!}  Lol, we all have thin skin here these days!  Anyway, these balloons take me back to warmer summer days, and will be the perfect congrats for someone I know - good times!

 Yum - check out our cool sketch at this week's Try Stampin' on Tuesday #429!  We have an optional purple-green-orange color challenge, too - hmmm...
I don't know why, but I decided to go for a pastel version of our colors, today - I thionk I thought I'd go in a baby card direction, but then wound up with some coloring time on Above the Clouds - I haven't used it in a bit, so I figured it needed to come play!  I did our basic layout, though I've just noticed I'm missong the "circle" at the inside corner - sigh.  Oh well - this is how it goes today!  I'm still pleased with my pastels!
So, what will YOU create?  I can't wait to see, over at the challenge!
Above the Clouds Stamp Set; Purple Posy, Soft Sea Foam, Grapefruit Grove & Whisper White CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Purple Posy & Soft Sea Foam Blends Markers; Grapefruit Grove Stamp-n-Write Marker; Polka Dot Basics EF; Rectangle Stitched Dies; Hot Air Balloon Punch; Green Faceted Dots; #TSOT429.

Check out the lovely landscape sketch we have for you this week over at Try Stampin' on Tuesday #421!  We have an additional theme, too - flying things!
I usually don't even catch the suggested theme, but when I saw this one, I immediately went to my sweet This Little Piggy set, because, of course, there's a pig with wings in there, lol!  Perfect!  I stayed pretty much right on the sketch, kept the colors fresh and light, and just had some fun fussy cutting my little flying pig - so much less coloring when I stamp them on the color I want, lol.  Love her!
So, what will YOU create?  I can't wait to get a look, over at the challenge!
This Little Piggy Stamp Set; Gingham Gala & Wood Textures DSP (both retired); Whisper White & Petal Pink CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Petal Pink Blend; Stitched Shapes Dies; Iridescent Sequins; #TSOT421.

Summer is in full swing over at the Sisterhood of Crafters "play ball" challenge!
So, I keep the venerable Have a Ball set around for all my sporting needs - I think this baby is from 2007!  I'd update it if something close to how awesome this set is came along, but I'm still waiting!  I've gone with a baseball theme today, since we just finished All Stars not too far back, and my hubby is faithfully following his beloved Cubbies for the season, lol.  I did a mixed background panel, and then matched it with Praiseworthy Prose - this sentiment seems perfectly sporty to me!  I'll drop it in the kids section of my cards for sale, I think.  So fun to give this oldie and goodie some field time again!
Have a Ball (retired 2007) & Praiseworthy Prose Stamp Sets; Whisper White, Real Red & Soft Suede CS; Soft Suede, Real Red & Crumb Cake Inks; Rectangle Stitched & Hand Lettered Prose Dies; #TSOCPlayBall.

Well, wouldn't you know it, SU Only #224 is having a masculine challenge!  The timing is perfect to pair up with The Male Room #112's computers or gaming challenge, too!
So, my idea for this one might be a little tenuous, lol - I have NO computer or gaming stamps!  I finally hit on our fun Tabs For Everything set - I actually bought this bundle for the punch, and I can't say for sure I've even USED the stamp set before - go figure!  I spotted this little thumb's up symbol, and hey, that's from computers, right??  So I made a quick and simple man congrats card, in one of my fave color combos - it's all about the keyboarding here, lol...
Tabs For Everything (retired 2019); Crumb Cake, Whisper White, Pacific Point, Lemon Lime Twist (retired); & Pool Party CS; Pacific Point, Lemon Lime Twist & Pool Party Inks; Stitched Shapes Dies; Maps Etc EF; Pacific Point Sequins; #SUO224; #TMR112.

OooOOOooo - check out this cool Agatha Christie cover for The Library Challenge #33 - Death on the Nile!
This cover was a stumper for me - I didn't seem to have any stamps that went with it, except for some Christmas camels, lol.  Then I remembered my retired Custom Tee set - there's a tuxedo shirt front in that!  Perfect!  I pieced together a snazzy top, and then pieced together a punny sentiment for it using my Labeler Alphabet set.  I love doing this - I'm so sad that this one is retiring!  It was so versatile - not a girlie font at all!  Anyway, there's no pistol stamp in my collection either, so we're leaving the spy games on the Nile, lol...

Eek!  I am loving the sketch and fish combo at this week's Fusion Tropical Fish!
So, even though they might not quite qualify as "tropical," I couldn't resist pulling out my beloved (and retiring, SOB!) Jar of Love set and doing a few bettas for this card.   I really wanted to do the jars, too, so I had to turn the sketch sideways so they could all fit.  It turned out to be a pretty simple and understated little card, lol.  Watch out, these guys are giving us the fishy eyeball!

Back to Basics #20 is pulling out another oldie but goodie - salt technique!
It's so funny, my main experience with salt techniques is actually with silk painting - such cool effects come from the distortion of color you get when you add it to a wet area - and it works just as well on paper, too!  I decided to go for a bright sunshine-y card today - I see so much snow in the news elsewhere in the country, maybe we could all use a bit of Arizona out there!  I started with a panel of watercolor paper, so I could get it nice and water-saturated.  I sprinkled on some Yellow Brusho Crystals, along with a few touches of Orange, and then quick hit it with some coarse salt.  I went and had a snack while I waited for it to dry, lol.  I'm happy with the result!  I finished with a "dazzling" sentiment and some cool Mango shades - bring on the rays!
