Love this - Time Out Challenges #247 has a wonderful camping inspiration pic for us this round! I so love this pretty lakeside scene, and it triggered a memory for me of something I have with a rowboat - a quick search and out came 2021's By The Dock! I had to really dig to build this scene so that I could fit in all the elements I wanted, and I actually had to rethink it twice, lol - not something I do too often! Eventually I landed on this water scene, with the dock, of course, and our little boat tied up, and a bit of soggy shoreline, too. I think this is the one!

We have a lovely banner sketch for you this round at Sunday Stamps #318! The first thing I saw was the "any shape" opportunity, lol, so I knew immediately I needed to do a leaf! So of course I had to trot out my Autumn Leaves suite for this one! I just finished designing a suit focus set for this one, so this sketch was ALSO perfect for diving into a few scraps I still have left! I had to hunt through all the class boxes for the stamps I wanted, but it was SO worth it! I think Moody Mauve is turning into my favorite new In Color! I can't wait to see YOUR creations for our fun sketch - meet you at the challenge! Autumn Leaves Stamp Set; All About Autumn DSP; Very Vanilla, Moody Mauve & Crumb Cake CS; Moody Mauve Ink; Autumn Leaves Dies; Distressed Tile EF; Speckled Dots in Moody Mauve; #SSC318. Wow, the September challenge for If You Give a Crafter a Cookie #184 looks super YUM! Look at all that chocolate! I really did almost make a box of chocolates, lol, but I went instead for Wildlife Wonder - I haven't used it in a bit, and I LOVE this bear, lol. I was also psyched to see I stuck a mask for his feet inside the case, so I could stamp his ground image without any overlap - yes! I did up my bear in Pecan Pie, and added lots of Early Espresso details, except for my Pecan Pie Solid Gems - pie and a coffee, mmm, now I need a snack! Wildlife Wonder Stamp Set; Early Espresso DSP (retired); Crumb Cake & Very Vanilla CS; Early Espresso & Pecan Pie Inks; Deckled Rectangles & Radiating Stitches Dies; Faux Suede Trim; Pecan Pie Solid Gems; #Cookie184. So glad to have a new round at NBUS #54 - always fun to play with something new! I don't think I could get a better straight line to finally break in my new Abundant Beauty Decorative Masks! The layered sunflower images have really been calling me, so that's what I'm trying first - so easy to use! The layering stencils themselves are notched to make them easier to align, but I'm not sure you even need that, they're so well designed! Love how nice and heavy the stencil material is! After I blended on my flowers, which I tried to keep a little on the brighter side, I finished with this cute "thank you" from Something Fancy - just right! So happy with how this came out! Something Fancy Stamp Set; Basic White & Granny Apple Green CS; Abundant Beauty Decorative Masks; Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie, Pecan Pie, Granny Apple Green & Versamark Inks; White EP; Something Fancy Dies; Linen Thread, Rustic Metallic Dots; #NBUS54.

I pulled out my Vertical Blooms set for this one - love that big vertical "thanks to you" sentiment! I'm still working on building the stacked flowers - the one you see is my second attempt, lol. I do like the little trick of adding that tiny bloom trio to the top to finish it, though - closure is so good! Checking over the inspo list, I made my flowers in Daffodil Delight, and added some pretty Lemon Lime Twist ribbon, too! So I managed to hit yellow, ribbon, flowers and thank you for this one - not too bad! I finished with a few Parakeet Party Matte Dots, that match the ribbon spot on! Anyone else loving Lemon Lime Twist & Granny Apple Green together?? Yum! Vertical Blooms Stamp Set; Basic White & Lemon Lime Twist CS; Granny Apple Green, Lemon Lime Twist & Daffodil Delight Inks; Lemon Lime Twist Ribbon (from the Ribbon Duo Pack); Parakeet Party Matte Dots; #FF0142.

As I went hunting for good scene setting sets, Grassy Grove caught my eye. I think I've only stamped with it once, and even worse, I don't think I've EVER used the gorgeous dies I actually got the bundle for, lol. Today's the day! It struck me that I could do an amazing silhouette scene, against the right background. Rather than ink blending my own fiery sunset sheet, I cheated (a little, lol) and cut this panel from my beloved Enjoy The Journey pack! I have found so many ways to use this paper, I hope I never run out, lol. Anyway, I finally used the cool tree die to create my landscape, and I tucked these two deer in there, too. Love it! Grassy Grove Stamp Set; Enjoy The Journey DSP (retired); Basic White & Basic Black CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Grove Does; Large Oval Punch (retired); Iridescent Pearls; #TSOCScene. Don't you just love our vertically layered sketch this round at Retro Rubber #214?? I sure do! Browsing through the Shelves of Retirement, my old Press On set from 2020 caught my eye - love this one! Though it doesn't have dies, it's a fun one to color and simple to fussy cut - lots of straight lines! I even tried my hand at the curvy steam image, so I could cover my card front in yummy coffee DSP, lol. I finished with some Cherry Cobbler punched hearts for a pop of color, and some Classic Matte Dots - super cute! I can't wait to see where you take our Retro sketch this round - meet you at the challenge! Press On Stamp Set (retired 2020); Crumb Cake & Early Espresso DSP; Basic White, Pool Party, Crumb Cake & Cherry Cobbler CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Pool Party & Crumb Cake Blends Markers; Heart to Heart Punch (retired); Stylish Shapes Dies; Classic Matte Dots; #RRCB214. Such a gorgeous combo at this round's In{k}spire Me #512! Love the colors, and the sketch is so versatile! Our stunning Gorgeously Made suite is a natural fit for these challenges, and that's right where I headed! I started by pulling this delicate botanical sheet in Fresh Freesia from the DSP pack, Masterfully Made. I cut my panel triplets, and did a little stamped off background stamping with the text block image, and then added these sprigs from the dies. A little more stamped off filler on my sentiment banner, and I just repeated the "thank you" down the line. I finished with a few Berry Burst Tinsel Gems - my go to these days, lol. I just love how this came out! Gorgeously Made Stamp Set; Masterfully Made DSP; Basic White, Starry Sky, Berry Burst & Boho Blue CS; Fresh Freesia, Boho Blue, Berry Burst & Starry Sky Inks; Gorgeously Made Dies; Berry Burst Tinsel Gems; #IMC512.

Such a wonderful recipe card we have this round at As You See It #305! Love it! Gotta make sure to get in ALL the ingredients! This challenge is giving me a chance to show off several new and upcoming items - yay! I'm not sure why, but this super cute thermos set, Warmest Heart, really grabbed me! And since it has a little sun icon for your favorite flask, I knew I wanted to try it out here! I set up a background of our new Deckled Circles (eee!) in different retired DSPs, then planned out my thermos. I knew I wanted the sun, but I also wanted to try one of the print patterns for it, so I die-cut all that, and colored in my lid with a Blend. I'm so tickled with how cute this came out! I can't wait to see YOUR sunny cards for this one - meet you at the challenge!

It was fun to pull out and play with my Sweet Citrus bundle - I didn't even fire up the hybrid embossing folder, lol. I did some citrus outlines in Crushed Curry, and filled in with Lemon Lolly, with details and leaves in Granny Apple Green - yum! I also played with the little blossoms for the first time - so sweet! I floated it all over our old Layered Leaves EF from 2020 - just right! I can't wait to see what YOU come up with for our fresh inspiration board this round - meet you at the challenge!
