TGIF Challenge #600 - WAHOO!! Can you believe it??? 600 weeks of challenges - that’s a LOT!
And we’re here to CELERATE!!
Check out the blog challenge here - TGIF Challenge Blog if you’d like to play along.
I knew that the Shining Stars Dies (BEST Product of the Month EVER!) we’re going to have to be center stage for this week’s celebration-themed challenge!!
I ended up putting some of the Mosaic Garden DSP AND some Old Olive Mulberry paper as the backdrops for the stars … with a little touch of gold foil behind the sentiment panel!
Swirls of Magic - this embossing folder was the most excellent pairing for the Shining Stars!
The little dots and gold embossed sentiment were just the right touches to complete this creation!
Stamps: Timeless Celebrations Paper: Basic White, Mosaic Garden DSP, Old Olive Mulberry, Gold Foil Ink: Versamark Accessories: Shining Star Dies, Extraordinary life Dies, Swirls of Magic Embossing Folder, Mosaic Adhesive Backed Dots, Gold Embossing Powder, Mossy Meadow Sparkle Ribbon (retired)

Happy Monday! The Monday Montage Crew is back again! Soooo much good to share today!
What do you think? I am obsessed with the Time to Unwind stamps … what is it about cute little balls of yarn that just gets to me??
I used the Tile Garden Dies to created a little splattered backdrop for each of the knitty images. The new Timeless Herringbone embossing folder is the perfect companion for the yarn … it kind of looks like a blanket, don’t you think?
I used some blending brushes to add a bit of color to the Timeless Herringbone embossed backdrop … it needed just a little more ooomph! Paper: Basic White, Blueberry Bushel, Azure Afternoon, Berry Burst Ink: Night of Navy, Azure Afternoon, Berry Burst Accessories: Tile Garden Dies, Timeless Herringbone Embossing Folder, Antique Pearls
Do any of you knit, crochet or cross stitch (I have been known to do a little of each from time to time). My grandmother used to crochet me things when I was a little girl … they were so beautiful and personal.
Our Monday Montage Hop has gone exclusively to Instagram! You can check it out by finding me @tinkermom85. From there you will be able to find all of my Monday Montage Friends, too!

I pulled out a couple of colors that I LOVE but seem to neglect … Secret Sea and Cloud Cover (and accented with some Cajun Craze!).
I chose to highlight this one little cutie patootie terrier … he just makes me smile.
The new Sunray embossing folder is going to see a LOT of use from me … and of course I had to sponge and splatter!!

Oooooo!! Aaaaaaaaah! Isn’t this just the prettiest thing EVER??!??
I created this using the soon-to-be-released Timeless Celebrations Bundle … it comes with stamps, dies AND a coordinating embossing folder! Woot!! Woot!!!
The beautiful textures and layers you can create with this bundle are WONDERFUL!!
I used a little bit of Crumb Cake ink to sponge the edge of the oval in the middle to add even more depth … the flowers are stamped in Blackberry Bliss ink and accented them with a little bit of Peaceful Pine with the leaves.
