 We sure have some fresh colors for you this round at Sunday Stamps #360! These gorgeous colors really made me want to go nautical, but then I got to thinking - how about a refreshing cocktail or two?? Our Cheers & Sips Stamp Set had just the thing! I floated my drinks over a Crushed Curry background, and I used our tasty Celebratory Sips DSP for a little boost, lol. I added some Lemon Lolly twine (since we have TWO yellows!) and even finished with some Balmy Blue Glossy Dots - I'm so happy with how it all came out! I can't wait to see YOUR takes on our lovely colors - meet you at the challenge!

 Who's ready for some fun with a fun fold at this round of Make My Monday #251! I started by looking over my papers this time - and I haven't used the gorgeous Nests of Winter in a minute! I went for a quick z-fold for this one, and there was already a decorated envelope in there, too, so I used papers that included that one! I love these little willow buds! I also picked a few of the tiny birds on ANOTHER sheet, and added those as well to my feature panel - they look so sweet! And one of the sentiments fits PERFECTLY on this tag from the Cheerful Daisies dies! So happy with how this came out! I can't wait to see YOUR fancy fun folds this round, too - meet you at the challenge! Winterly Tree Tops Stamp Set; Nests of Winter DSP; Basic White & Basic Black CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Cheerful Daisies Dies; Clear Ribboned Dots; #MMM251.   Oo, I love this pretty landscape sketch from Inspire Create Challenge #191! I decided I wanted another crack at the bright and cheery paper in our Cheers & Sips suite - so fun! I also wanted to try mu hand at the cut-glass pattern die that goes with one of the glasses - looks pretty fancy! I did this refreshing all-over background sheet, and then highlighted two fancy glasses on a Cloud Cover circle. I had already put on some old purple heavy-Baker's Twine I found in a drawer, so I tucked in some mint leaves to satisfy the sketch! Rather than use the stamp set for the sentiment, I remembered my old Greetings dies from 2020 had the "cheers" word in it - perfect! Now I want to sit back and sip grape koolaid, lol. Cheers & Sips Stamp Set & Dies; Celebratory Sips DSP; Basic White & Blackberry Bliss CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Old Olive Blend Marker; Stylish Shapes & Greetings (retired) Dies; Blackberry Bliss Heavy Baker's Twine; Holographic Resin Dots; #ICC191.   Wow, Festive Friday #182 has an awesome inspo list for Earth Day! So many great elements here - I went around and picked up a bunch of stuff from the list - then whittled down to this beauty! And I couldn't resist using my Country Woods DSP, either, lol. I finally settled on my old Sheltering Tree set from 2019 - and I still love it! This was one of our earlier photopolymer sets, and the possibilities for easily building a scene were thrilling, lol. I found this "frame" and rectangle tucked in my Deckled Rectangles sleeve, and decided to use these for my stamping surface! So cool to pop up the center once I was done - I had a fun time playing with layers today! And the sentiment - just right for Earth Day, too! I think I got Earthy Colors, Wooden Elements & Trees from the list! Sheltering Tree Stamp Set (retired 2019); Country Woods DSP; Basic White & Crumb Cake CS; Early Espresso, Crushed Curry & Cajun Craze Inks; Deckled Rectangles Dies; Textural Elements; #FF0182.

I couldn't pass up another chance to show off another upcoming set - and this one is a cutie-patootie! Here's a sneak peek at Poppin' By - a popcorn set! It has such cute little popcorn characters, and a striped bucket, too! And with the adorable dies - you can make shoes and shades for everyone, lol - adorable! There's also some punny popcorn sentiments, too, but we could make so many more, don't you think? I never would have thought I'd do a monochrome in yellows, but I guess I have the munchies, lol... Poppin' By Stamp Set; So Saffron DSP (retired); Basic White & Crushed Curry CS; Crushed Curry, Memento Tuxedo Black & So Saffron (retired) Inks; Poppin' By & Nested Essentials Dies; Lemon Lolly Rainbow Dots; #ICC190.   LOVE this rich color combo at this round of Hand Stamped Sentiments #460! AND, I've been neglecting Summer Splash - now's my chance to show it some love! This was perfect timing to show off another upcoming bundle, too - take a peek at Paper Tags, with comes bundled with some fabulous tag dies - that even LAYER! Wheee! I have to say, I am in LOVE with this color combo, and it made picking this particular tag a cinch, so that I could float on that little banner in a contrasting color, too! I found my woodgrain Pecan Pie in the To Market DSP pack, and had some fun playing with my two blues to go with - beautiful! It's also funny to me that Summer Splash is the only In Color ribbon I got from this family - very unlike me! Paper Tags Stamp Set; To Market DSP; Basic White, Pretty Peacock & Summer Splash CS; Pretty Peacock & Summer Splash Inks; Paper Tags Dies; Summer Splash Bordered Ribbon; Summer Splash Resin Dots; #HSS460.

We have an excellent banner sketch for you this round at Retro Rubber #252! I had a great time browsing through my retired shelves today - so many sets that haven't had ink in a while! 2016's A Nice Cuppa won today, but I have so many more in mind again now! I knew I wanted to put this long teacup stack with sentiment onto my banner - what else to do? I finally remembered that I still have an almost full pack of Tea Boutique DSP, and there are some wonderful bright tea sheets to play with in there! I wound up with this combo of Parakeet Party behind these sweet teapots! The teapots reminded me that I ALSO still have a lot of little silver pots from A Little Cuppa Embellishments - perfect! I made sure I hit the sketch elements, then tucked on a lemon wedge and a little teapot trinket - super sweet! Now I only need some biscuits! I can't wait to see what YOU do with our fun sketch - don't forget to make it Retro!

We have some yummy fresh colors for you this round at As You See It #345! I was really itching to ink up another new set, so I pulled out my upcoming Notes & Totes bundle - so fun! I managed the purples on the tote, with a retired Fresh Freesia DSP and Gorgeous Grape trimmings. I even slipped on a Garden Green bandanna - so many cool details in the dies! I did some Peach Pie speckle for the bottom of the card, to look like sand, and added a couple peachy shells, too, to reinforce the image, lol. This warm wishes sentiment seemed like the right one for my beachy scene, and I finished with some Garden Green embellies, too. So cute! I can't wait to see what YOU make of our colors this round, too - meet you at the challenge!

So fun to update these! For some reason my eye caught on my Adventure Together set today - could I make this fit in the sketch? I couldn't help but transform the layered pieces to a little banner, but I did manage a triple of smaller elements below the camper - maybe sort of similar?? Anyway, I went where the images (and the dies, lol) led me! I colored my camper in a combo of Soft Sea Foam and Lost Lagoon - I'm loving them together, too! I made the camp chair and fire pit go with the camper as well - you know I love matchy-matchy, lol. I did a quick tie-round with some Beige Twine from our Essentials pack, too!

Soft Sea Foam, Lost Lagoon & Shaded Spruce Blends Markers; Adventure Together Dies; Pretty Peacock Foiled Gems; #SS772.   We're headed to the vineyard with our colors this round at Sunday Stamps #357! Yum! So, purples and green are my FAVORITE color combo, lol. What else could I do with these besides grapes? How about some cacti?? I quickly realized I wanted to pull out my old Flowering Desert set from 2019 - I love building my own crazy cactus with this cutie - we see some WILD ones here in Arizona! I started by laying on a purple combo of Blackberry Bliss with Highland Heather for the back cactus, then I did an Old Olive one on some scrap to fussy cut - I even added some Crushed Curry flowers! I added a cheery sentiment, and finished with a few Faux Glass Dots - clean and simple, baby! I can't wait to see what YOU come up with for our juicy colors - meet you at the challenge!
