Hello and welcome snarky peeps!
First off, I want to say that Sister Lynne has made the difficult decision to step down from
the Sisterhood in order to concentrate on her art career. We wish you all the best and will miss you Lynne,
but you know you are welcome back whenever you want. I will still stalk your blog!
Secondly, that being said, we wish to welcome
to the Sisterhood! Woo Hoo! Toni has been a regular player in
our challenges and we are thrilled to have her on board!
You'll be seeing her amazing creations starting in March!
We have a fun challenge starting today at the
T is for Tissue!
That's right, we challenge you to use tissue paper in some way
on your project. You can also use a paper napkin for your
tissue element, as I've done here:
I've had these cocktail napkins for years, and I only just took off the packaging
to make this card. But it gave me the idea for this card I made for our
snarky card swap 4 years ago!
I first separated the design part from the other layer, and adhered it
to some card stock. I carefully brushed clear gesso over that and let it dry.
I used my finger to smudge black ink around the edges, matted it onto some
black card stock, and used foam squares to adhere to my card base.
I had so much fun with using napkins that I made 4 more cards using
one napkin! I had another package of pretty cocktail napkins and decided to
quarter it and make four more cards:
OK, so now it's your turn to use tissue (or a paper napkin) in some way
on your project and link up at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers!
We'd love to see what you come up with. For more ideas, just check out what
my Sisters and our newest Guest Designer, Karola, have created to inspire you!
Thanks for visiting and I hope you have a great day!
What a great collection of cards - I can see I'm going to have to start hovering in the "party supplies" aisles in search of stash
