Adventurous Birthday (& Pumpkin Club May 28!)

5/19/2022

We have a fun theme at this month's The Male Room #162 - SPORT!
I'm so excited for this challenge, because it gives me a chance to ink up my new Adventurous Journey stamp set - this kayaker is SO COOL! I couldn't resist pulling in my retired Old World Paper EF to add some watery texture, and pop up a diorama layer for my boater to skim on top of - so many great layout opportunities with this one!

Sailing Home (& Pumpkin Club April 30!)

Aw, our gorgeous blue collection this week at As You See It #273 is making me miss Maui even more, lol. It went too fast!
It does give me a chance to do a farewell feature to the beautiful Sailing Home bundle, though. I couldn't resist adding in some of the oh-so-yummy DSP from Waves of the Ocean - the colors are perfect! I chose the sentiment that I have often reflected on, and couldn't resist a little splash of my fave seaweed die that in this this set, too - so cute with all our fishy sets! I had to add a few Waves Rhinestones, too - you know the ocean sparkles!
I can't wait to see YOUR projects in our luscious blues this round - meet you there!

Let's Mix It Up (& Pumpkin Club March 26!)

Hm, The Sisterhood of Crafters is running an "old, rejected" stamps challenge this fortnight. Now I love me some old stamps, for sure, but I don't know about the rejected part, lol. This might take some digging!
So, it turns out, on the back of a bottom shelf, I have a little bin stash of non-SU stamp sets. That I totally forgot was there, and never dig through, so I think that qualifies as old and rejected, right?? I found 3 little sachets of stamp sets (bizarro!) and one of them was Cocktail Party from Unity Stamps. A quick search on Splitcoast shows cards as far back as 2009 using this set - wow! I have no idea how this came to me, I think someone must have given these to me, and since I'm a diehard SU! fan and demo, I don't think I ever gave them a thought, lol. But this cocktail dress is a cutie, so I matched it up with the Sunshine & Rainbows DSP still out on my desk from yesterday. I like it! No one report me to the SU police, please, lol.

CAS Penguin (& Pumpkin Club Feb 26!)

This will be fun - CAS Christmas wants us to create a winter scene this month!
I started by browsing my Christmas sets - and just how long has it been since I stamped my penguin?? Decision made! At first I had all kinds of grand plans - I still have some of the sweet DSP that goes with this set, too - but then I remembered - gotta keep it CAS! I've been seeing some gorgeous cards out there in blog-land this week that have beautifully masked backgrounds, so I decided to try it myself, and made this simple background circle from Pool Party and a Blending Brush. I added my "scene" elements directly over this, and then slid in my penguin - I love him so much! I went a little overboard with the snowflakes, so I broke them up a bit with a few last minute trees - all just part of the scene, lol.

Dang, look at these adorable snow-people cupcakes at this week's Cupcake Inspirations #534! Love them!
I decided I couldn't resist re-creating this little gang, and I went straight to my Snow Place set from 2015 to do it! I love this set for a the little snowman wardrobe pieces in it, and of course the dies for each and every piece, lol. It was a snap to set up three snowman in the cute colors on the cupcakes. I guess mine are a little less portly, lol! I even added a Real Red layer to pick up those cupcake wrappers!

Lovely - Retro Rubber #171 is asking us to bring the Fall colors this week! Gladly!
I so enjoy checking my retired shelves for old faves - I really do have a system for letting go, but some of them, well, they're just keepers, lol. Like Vintage Leaves from 2018. We've had so many pretty leaf sets, but something about this one has just stayed with me. The sketchy quality of the leaves takes on color perfectly, and well, there's DIES, too. Even without any sentiments, usually a cardinal no-no for me, I still love this one! I was happy to add this perfect sentiment from last year's Painted Harvest - just right!

Such a lovely layered landscape sketch we have for you this week at Try Stampin' on Tuesday #529!
When I saw this lovely open space on our sketch, I knew right away I wanted to feature some pretty DSP, and I knew just what sheet, too, lol. I have been avoiding cutting my sheets of this stylized berry paper from Painted Christmas for a while now - not sure why it makes my heart so happy! All the happy circles? The fun berry-like shapes? The cheery red-painted colors? Who can say, but this was my chance, lol. I even got to play with shortening this fancy sentiment banner from the Seasonal Layers dies - worked like a charm!
I can't wait to see YOUR takes on our sketch this week - meet you at the challenge!

I couldn't resist this intriguing color combo over at Hand Stamped Sentiments #372 - gorgeous!
I'm especially delighted to see Merry Merlot in this mix - I think this is one of our most under-served colors, lol. And it's beautiful! So I featured that for my "detail" picture - my background layer and the sentiment, plus my fussy-cut set of leaves from Little Delights. This set was made for making your own DSP! I chose the Autumnal leaves for this color combo, and the sentiment that went with, but then I found my remaining Gold Holly Leaves to throw on there, too - oops! I think the gold goes great with these colors, anyway!

Such a cute inspiration pic at this week's Cupcake Inspirations #525 - love those colors!
I went back and forth and finally settled on the Measure of Love stamp set - I really couldn't help it for this challenge, lol! I know we don't have have cupcakes on our cards, but sometimes, well, it just works out that way! This is actually the first time I've used this little pyramid of cupcakes, and I decided to color with Blends, rather than use the little fill-in stamps - tasty! I kept things really simple, added some layering, and finally finished with some leftover Paper Pumpkin sequins - perfect color match!

What a great landscape sketch we have this week at As You See It #254!
And what a great chance to play with new Christmas toys, lol! Today I'm showing off the new Sweet Little Stockings suite, a stamp collection of various stockings and critters (yay!), along with the cutest DSP ever! I chose this pretty light string sheet for my background today, but there are so many sweet choices to choose from! I had to start off with the puppy today, because, well, I DO have 3 dogs snoring away under every table in my craft room right now, soooo... Not that any of them would fit in a stocking!
