Such a cool theme this round at Cupcake Inspirations #557 - owls!
I was super stoked to realize that I actually have a CURRENT owl, lol, in the Happier Than Happy set! Once I settled on that, I knew I wanted to pull in the sweet DSP, too - Happy Forest Friends. Finally my chance to use this pretty scenery sheet - I would want to hang out there! I stamped my fluffy owl, and gave him a tree stump to perch on. A welcome sentiment seemed just right!

We have such a fun sketch this week at Fab Friday #167 - hope you can join us! I think I'll add in this pretty color challenge from Hand Stamped Sentiments #318, too - I have an idea!
One of the very few flower sets I've gotten so far is the lovely Soft Spring hostess set - I love all the two-step options in this one! I kept this one clean and simple yet again, with just a few tiny Calypso sequins to add some pops of color, and did a 3-layer sentiment with the Well Written dies - one of my favorite ways to add dimension! I thought these colors would be just right for these pretty stems, and I really like how it came out!
So, what will YOU create?? I can't wait to see, over at the challenge!

Do you like our FABulous sketch at this week's Fab Friday #137?? I sure do, and it'll be fun to use it for the "speedy grays" challenge over at As You See It #175, too!
So, I knew pretty quickly what set I wanted to use to fill in the "band" shape on our sketch - In The City is so fun! I pulled out my "stuff" and started the clock. I quickly realized I had more shades of gray in my older Blendabilities 3-shade set of Smoky Slate, so I started to sweat about hand-coloring instead of two-step stamping, lol. Then I really started stressing when I realized how much cooler the card would look if I flipped the sketch upside down and fussy-cut my skyline - what a nail biter! I quick colored up a few pearls and threw those on too, and finished my timer at 8 minutes 35 seconds. Blazing in gray! See you over at the challenge - can't wait to see YOUR creations! (No rushing there, lol...)

I love this bold mix of colors from this week's Color Throwdown #461! I think they'll be great for this unusual interlaced layout from Match the Sketch #195!
Looking at the little boxes along the bottom edge of the sketch, I couldn't help but think of the super-fun new Hostess set (my other fave!) In The City. The set is absolutely gi-NOR-mous - little line drawings of everything, and then a collections of "fill-ins" - no coloring required! It's a blast to play with especially for color challenges, lol - imagine your neighborhood in all your fave SU! colors - woo hoo! Threw this card together quick for a new next-door neighbor - off to make them cookies now...

I love the offset focus of Case This Sketch #225! It's going to be so cute in these fresh colors from In{k}spire Me #304!
Hm, what would be a good way to finagle all these colors? How about a bunch of little buildings? In The City to the rescue! This set was SO FUN to play with! I love line art for coloring in, but the bonus of this set is that pretty much everything has a "fill-in" stamp, too! 60 STAMPS in this one, boys and girls! Don't be overwhelmed, lol, just make your own Cracker Jack box neighborhood (or neighbourhood, yes, really!) Fun times...
