Hand Stamped Succulents (& Critter Class Feb 13!)

2/5/2021

Oo, there's a very elegant sketch for us this week at Hand Stamped Sentiments #356!
As usual, I got my proportions all out of whack, but I did manage to get all the elements there, lol.  For whatever reason, once I hit on Simply Succulents, I just couldn't let go!  I do have fun coloring these cuties, so many variations out there in the succulent world for me to try my hand at, but I almost always land on some version of greens with an edge of purple - so pretty!  I carried the color theme through with my papers, too - look at me, all buttoned up!
Simply Succulents Stamp Set; Soft Sea Foam DSP; Whisper White, Highland Heather & Purple Posy CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Smoky Slate, Old Olive, Soft Sea Foam & Rich Razzleberry Blends Markers; Potted Succulents Dies; Iridescent Sequins; #HSS356.

Wow, this is a cool theme:  Time Out Challenges # 179 is calling us out to be "you" - awesome!
I had to spend some time thinking about this one - there's just so much ME these days, lol.  All this enforced at-home time is really setting me up to explore all my old faves, and dabble in a few new ones, too!  Then, my latest order arrived - and it was all over!  I went ahead and picked up our Handmade For You set - I'm always up for new "angel policy" sets, but this one also had a sentiment that pretty much says it all for me!  I paired it up with some fun colored DSP, because I'm SUCH a color junkie, too!  So here I am, in card form, but much more buttoned up than in real life, lol.

Friends Are Like Seashells

Ah ha - I've found another new-to-me challenge!  Today I'm at Addicted to CAS #188, and we get to emboss for this one!  I always find clean and simple to be a challenge - let's see how I do fitting in embossing, too, lol.
I decided to stick with heat embossing, so I could create one focal image.  Friends Are Like Seashells is burning up my desk, lol, so I had to pull it out!  I really wanted to use the gorgeous new embossing folder that goes with this suite, but I was worried it was too much of an all-over design, so I picked one shell to emboss in gold - so pretty!  There are color wash stamps for behind most of the elaborate shells, and I couldn't resist a few Opal Rounds to touch things up.  I even did my stamping on our new Pearlescent Specialty Paper - it has such a beautiful sheen!

I'm so super excited to be guest designing today at this week's Less Is More #434 - the theme is clothing or fashion!  So cool!
I have to admit, I ran straight to our Dressed To Impress set for something fun, lol.  But then I thought, what else do I have?  A quick search pulled up 2005's Fashion Statements, too, and hey, I forgot all about this image of all these shelves of shoes - how perfect!  I did a quick combo of sets, had some fun coloring shoes in improbable colors, then decided to add a background layer and some texture.  Hopefully still CAS enough! 
I can't wait to see YOUR work for this fun theme - see you at the challenge!
Dressed To Impress & Fashion Statements (retired 2005) Stamp Sets; Whisper White & Real Red CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Crumb Cake, Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Granny Apple Green, Night of Navy, Balmy Blue, Flirty Flamingo, Rich Razzleberry & Mango Melody Blends Markers; Rectangle Stitched Dies; Ruffled EF; #LIM434.

Sending Pals Sunshine

Excellent - I found another new-to-me challenge to try - I love this time of year!  Today's is a lovely color challenge from Stamping Pals #11 - let's do it!
I always have a tough time with these subtle colors, and I really wanted to try to stay away from Easter, which they always remind me of, lol.  So I got to looking at my Sending Sunshine set, which I really haven't used enough, and figured I could fit the colors in here!  It's a pretty simple layout, but I went off-center with my image, and hand-cut the irregular shaped of the sentiment.  A few sunny sequins to finish, and I think I like it!

We're going all evergreen on you this week at Sunday Stamps #247!
I was so excited when I saw our colors, because I JUST got our In The Pines bundle, and it's perfect for them!  I had originally passed this one up, I have SO many trees, but I do love them, and THEN, the dies went on sale, lol.  That was it folks - I broke one of my "rules" and bought a retiring set on sale for those darn dies, lol.  But, really, I'm glad I did - this bundle is SO my style, lol.  It even has some curvy pieces of its own, so I could put my curvy dies away finally, lol.
I can't wait to see what YOU have for us this week - meet you at the challenge!

We have some end of year fun over at The Library Challenge #74 - "anthology" time!  We get to pick any cover from previous years to go for!  I went all the way back to 2018 for The Hobbit!
This is one of my hubby's favorite books, and series, really, so I couldn't resist taking a crack, with my Mountain Air set.  I think my card follows the same general idea, and I tried to pick a fun font for the sentiment, though I also couldn't resist the one Tolkien quote I have, that came in my old Glamper Greetings set, lol.  I kinda see Middle Earth, here!

I am LOVING our cool Fall colors at this week's Fab Friday #202!
And how about that, I an make it work for another super sneaky-peek!  Have a quick look at the upcoming Sale-A-Bration set Darling Donkeys!  Isn't he the cutest?  He just wants to be your friend, lol.  I was able to slip in another cutie on the envelope, too!  Anyway, Cinnamon Cider is the perfect color for a sweet donkey, and that pretty flower he wants you to have is just room enough to slip in my Mint Macaron and Bumblebee - a perfect fit!  I'm so looking forward to chronicling the antics these guys get up to - keep your eyes peeled!
Now show us what you got for our yummy colors this week - see you at the challenge!

Oh good deal, The Sisterhood of Crafters has an embossing challenge for us this week - any style!
I couldn't help but show off a new set from our upcoming Spring Mini catty today!  We just had our big (online) convention at SU! and it was amazing and awesome, AND I got to pre-pre-order from a selection of super sneaky-peeky products that were featured during presentations.  Today's set shows off the lovely Art Gallery set, its dies and the gorgeous Fine Art Floral DSP that goes with, too.  There's even an embossing folder, too, but I wanted to show the DSP more, lol.  I don't usually go for the floral sets these days, but the brush-stroke quality and layering choices for this one really grabbed me - love it! I snuck in a little gold heat embossing here!

What a cool challenge this week at Time Out Challenges #174 - Festivals!  I suspect that means very different things to different people!
I decided to look on Google for famous American festivals - we DO have them here, lol.  LOTS of music festivals, and boy howdy, the EATING festivals!  Anyway, I read that Coachella Valley Music Festival in Miami, Florida is the largest US festival these days, and when you look at pictures, they all feature this giant Ferris Wheel, and palm trees.  Lucky for me, I have JUST the thing for that!  I recently came across a few leftovers from my July 2020 Summer Nights Paper Pumpkin - perfect!  I added a few palm trees using the Nativity Dies, and well, as you can see, See A Silhouette DSP is still out on my desk, lol.  It just all came together, lol...  I loved this sentiment, too, even though Coachella is in April, shhh...
