Strawberry Roll

Mornin' y'all, and happy Saturday!  And it should be a fun morning, Missy's mom is coming over in a bit and we're going to the craft fair at the local high school and then she wants to talk about making Christmas cards.

In the meantime, I have a sweet card:

The inspo list from Festive Friday immediately brought to mind the (retired) Super Cool stamp set and the (long-retired) Bella Rose DSP.  I think what took the longest was figuring out how to use the scraps I had on hand because I didn't want to cut another sheet of paper ; )  Here's the inspo list:

I used pink, brown, ribbon, and desserts (the strawberry roll stamped image *and* Chocolate Chip ink, cardstock, and DSP, that counts as a dessert, right?).  I need to ink up my Riding Hood Red ink pad, that might be my favorite-ever SU! red.  I didn't want to do it when I was already in progress on this card so I just stamped the strawberry roll two or three times to get a good image.

Anyway, I'd better go get ready for my fun morning.  Have a great day, peeps!

SUO Challenges: Food Fiesta

Hey hey stampy friends!  We've got a super-fun challenge heading your way from SUO Challenges!  Check it out:

Yep, we've got the munchies at SUO Challenges!  Which is perfect timing with Thanksgiving coming up!  Did you ever count up how many SU! color names involve food?  There's a lot!  Cindy has a nice graphic with the food-related colors on her blog post for today, or just look through your ink pads and see what makes you hungry.  And if you have retired SU! colors, you have even more choices!  (Side note: I was hungry yesterday when the kiddo and I had to go run an errand, so he thought it would be funny to keep saying names of foods I really like to make me even hungrier.  Kids!  And it worked too, I was starving by the time we got back to the house!)

So here's my card:

I used FIVE colors related to food on this card:  Sweet Sorbet, Cherry Cobbler, Lemon Lolly, Old Olive, and Pecan Pie.  Not too shabby!  (Side note:  my favorite drink to get at Sonic is a Coke with cherry and vanilla in it.  Yum!)  Also, I CASE'd this card by Mary Fish, the layout caught my eye and I just had to CASE it.

So let's get ready for the biggest food-related holiday of the year by making a project with food-related colors : )  Don't forget to upload your card at the SUO Challenges blog.  Have fun!
