The first Sunday of the month means new challenges at We Love Stamping and Stamping Sensations and it happens to be the 1st as well which also means a new challenge at Tag-Along (and ATC's) as well, so a real bumper post.
There is as always an Anything Goes theme along with the option, at WLS the theme chosen by me is Nature, at SS Anesha has selected Our Furry Friends and at Tag-Along (and ATC's) Lynn has selected Drinks. We have prizes from Buddly Crafts and AALL and Create.
Starting with my WLS share, I found this shadow box hidden in a filing cabinet in the office, goodness know how it ever got there. So I decided on a mixture of Stampers Anonymous stamps along with some TH ephemera. Lots of fiddly stamping and cutting out to fill each little section. I would like to enter this in the AG Card Free Zone and Dragonfly Dreams who would like More than one Butterfly.
I was somewhat stumped for the Drinks theme so decided to buy this Spellbinders set from Amazon (best price), when it arrived two small dies were missing, called Amazon, immediate refund and don't bother so sent it back. What a result! Die cut the glass, stamped the Lavinia Fairy and cut out, popped her on the edge of the glass and a computer generated sentiment. And yes, Strawberry Daiquiri is my all time favourite drink.......the best I've ever had are at Hard Rock Cafe's, no matter which Country they still seem to use real Strawberries, most bars use syrup. I make them mostly in the Summer so hopefully it will be accepted at Four Seasons Anything Goes Summer
My Lemonade ATC used a very cheap set of stamps, also Amazon, stamped onto a piece of MCS DP and some colouring. I would like to enter my ATC at the new ATC's around the World challenge with their theme Dots/Stripes (little dots of lemonade bubbles!!)
Probably one of my very first Penny Black stamps, stamped and coloured, some stencilling and a PB sentiment which was released at the same time as the image.

Wow the shadow box is amazing! They look like little trinkets instead of stamped images, wonderful work. I of course love the martini glass and to make a daiquiri fairy too! A lovely zingy ATC and your final card is so very sweet and a lovely CAS design.
A lovely shadow box with so much delightful detail. Your drink related projects are great and should inspire plenty of entries into the challenge.
Love your detailed shadow box the intricate elements are beautiful, great drinks tag and ATC and gorgeous Penny Black card
Wow your shadow box is stunning Brenda!! I love the sparkle and cute fairy on your fabulous tag. Red and black works beautifully and your lemonade ATC has my mouth watering!!

A fabulous collection of little bits in your shadow box - what a find! And your great little citrusy drink looks delicious. CarolG
This is a bumper display. Love that little house display. I am glad you found it and have made it into something special. I have never had a strawberry daiquiri, but I have been to several Hard Rock Cafes, not for a few year now though. I am glad you had a good result from Amazon xx
This post really showcases your versatility and creativity such a range of styles! The shadow box looks wonderful, I had to look twice to see that the contents were stamps. Love how you added the fairy to the strawberry daiquiri tag, made me smile, imagining the little fairies queuing up for that job! Fabulous zesty colours on the ATC and an adorable card.

ALL your projects are so beautifully creative!!

Incredible shadow box, Brenda - so many great details - just WOW!! Love your cards too - that fairy on the edge of the daiquiri glass made me smile!!
So many wonderful creations with a great variety of themes. All beautiful but I am in awe of that gorgeous shadow box filled with all those beautiful nature things!
And thank you for sharing the Strawberry Daiquiri tag at Four Seasons challenge. So great to see you there!
Such beautiful and different projects! Love the shadowbox and all the different techniques you show here! Very inspiring! Hugs, Gerrina
So many makes, so many different styles! The shadow box is a great decoration piece with lots of interest. Love the drinks tag and ATC, I have never tried a proper Daiquiri, so added it to my bucket list... x
What a fabulous collection of creations, Brenda!!! They are all so pretty, and I love the addition of background stencilling. The addition of the fairy to the cocktail glass is a genius idea, too. However, this time, the shadow box takes the prize for me. You must have so much patience to create those tiny beauties, but it is so worth it. I hope you are feeling better by now.
Take care,
Hugs

Brenda, your nature-inspired shadow box is absolutely captivating—each carefully stamped and layered element creates such a rich, intricate display. The delicate butterflies add a lovely sense of movement, making the whole piece feel alive. Your card is a wonderful balance of classic charm and vibrant detail, and the Penny Black stamp brings such warmth and personality to the design. The Lemonade ATC is a delightful burst of energy—the tiny bubbles and fresh, citrusy tones make it such a playful and refreshing piece. Your ability to craft across different formats while maintaining such attention to detail is inspiring!
What a fabulous variety of wonderful projects! The shadow box made my jaw drop! Love the drink tag and of course the old style Penny Black image which I love and still have at least one!
