...to our Featured Stamper761 'Give Her a Whirl' shirlb19! Thank you, Nancy for bringing Shirley to the spotlight this week. I had such a fun time perusing her gallery and realized I had quite a few of her cards in my favorites (especially Fall ones). It was Frosty Wishes that sparked my card. I used a mug, embossing folder, and bit of trim. Shirley's card is all frosty and glittery and kool.
This week's TLC863 was brought to us by Cook22 (Sabrina). We were to Cut Away a Corner. I chose to use an large oval to show a bit of the fab Basic Gray 'Life of the Party' orange woodgrain paper and the beautiful collage mug from York's Little Art Studio. Thank you, Sabrina...I can see lots of shapes will work for your TLC.
This week's CAS654 is 'Coffee Time', hosted by LuvLee (Lee) I used this collaged coffee/tea mug as my main image and topped it off with the Greetery sentiment: let's get together for a cup, fussing cutting. I confess to drinking much coffee. Thank you, Lee...can't wait to peruse the gallery!
Last, but not least, this card fits into Penny627 (Jeanne) Color Challenge860. 4 very hip and retro colors! I must confess I was excited to try to work with this combination. My cosmos flowers on the cup should be a bit more curry, that is my heavy handed coloring skills! The cup was stamped with 'Fallen Leaves' a pretty brown, though it looks a bit more black.
Thank you hostesses for your continued inspiration. And to Shirley...so excited for you to be in the SCS spotlight this week. You SO deserve this recognition.

Instant love (not to be confused with instant coffee)…the Basic Gray paper is to die for and the darling vintage cup in your corner spotlight is perfect to spotlight our FS. That’s a lot of challenges for one card…

Oh my gosh, Susan! Polly is right that dp is to die for and embossing it really takes it to another level. (making a note!, lol). I keep going back up for another gaze at how awesome this looks. All the challenges you have combined are so creative and look amazing. I adore this card! Thank you for your sweet thoughts and words and for honoring me with this beauty!

This is so cool! I love the texture in the background with the pattern, for one thing, but the cup and all that is there is amazing! Way to combine! Thank you for joining in the Color Challenge this week!

I love how you did this, gallery neighbor, so cool that the cut-out is part of the opening. Love the mug and would love to have a cup with you - mine would have to be tea though! And love the embossed dsp.
The Ducks will be here ... good luck!! GO BUCKS!
