SISTERHOOD OF SNARKY STAMPERS #154 - E is for Evil

Good Saturday Morning to you, snarky peeps!

It's time for the next challenge at the

SISTERHOOD OF SNARKY STAMPERS! 

First off, let's give a major shout out to Sister Lee, our

Graphics Goddess! (If you haven't figured it out,

she superimposed Edna's face over the orange

clown sitting in the Oval Office. LOL!)

 Which brings us to the new challenge theme: E is for Evil.

I already had the perfect sentiment to use, just needed an image.

Behold:

I had so much fun coloring up this image. The wee

she-devil looks like she's already thought up at least

a dozen ways to make your life, er, hell.

I hope that you find some time to play along in our Evil challenge

at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers! For more incredible 

ideas, do check out what my Sisters, and our newest Queen,

 Rina, have in store for you!

Thanks for visiting, have a great day!

Using those tiny stamps

Hello and happy Fri-Yay!!

I've got a fun card I want to share with you:

Here is the inside, using a couple more of the stamps:

The main panel is all one layer. After die cutting it, I masked off where I wanted

the stamps to be. Once positioned where I wanted them, I stamped then colored

the images. Keeping the mask in place, I used a gray marker to color around

everything. I used a fine tip marker to add random dots to fill up more space.

All the colored images have a coating of Wink of Stella on them, but with my

crack photography skillz, you can't see it at all. (grin!)

Aannndddd that's another birthday card made. Go me! LOL!

 That's all for now. Thanks for visiting.

 Have a great rest of your day!

SHOPPING OUR STASH #414 - The Great Outdoors

Hello and happy Tuesday to you!

We have a new challenge starting today at

SHOPPING OUR STASH -  The Great Outdoors!

Anything outdoors or nature inspired is good.

I focused on being outdoors, hiking! One of my favorite

things to do when the weather cooperates. LOL!

I've had this hiking boot sticker in my stash for years, and finally decided

to use it. I had to dig around, but I knew I had a stamp set that had boot tracks on it.

Luckily I found it. Some ink blending around the edges, and a simple 

sentiment finishes my card.

What does the great outdoors mean to you? Flowers? Birds? Inner tubing

down the local river? We'd love to see your take on it in the

Shopping Our Stash gallery. For more inspiration, do check out

what my teammies created and leave them some bloggy love while visiting!

Thanks for stopping by!

Big Birthday Fishes

Hey all, just popping in with another quick card:

Here's the inside:

 

A very CAS card. I know, right?! Where are my beloved layers? LOL!

Sometimes I like to challenge myself with the occasional bare minimum card.

This is based off the current Freshly Made Sketch #421, the stenciled 

watery background being the square element of the sketch. (Just trying

to think outside the, er, box, so to speak) ☺

The dolphin and sentiment circle are popped up with foam squares,

and I added some liquid glass 'bubbles' to complete the look.

 Thanks for visiting, and I hope that you have a fabulous day!

SISTERHOOD OF SNARKY STAMPERS #153 - C is for Cats

Hello and welcome snarky peeps!

I'm the hostess this time around at the

SISTERHOOD OF SNARKY STAMPERS,

and wouldn't you know, it's a CAT challenge!

How ironic is that, being I'm very pro-doggies. 

Sometimes though, I think I was a cat in another

lifetime, as, like they tolerate humans, I 

tolerate them. LOL!

Anyway, here's the card I made:

I think the sentiment and this kitty's action pretty much says it all, don't you?

I'm hoping that the DP I used makes you think of wallpaper, 

because that's the look I was going for here.

I hope that you find some time to play along in our Cats challenge

at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers. Need more ideas? Do check out

what my Sistahs created for your viewing pleasure. You won't be

disappointed. Thanks for visiting. Have a great day!

 I'z gets all the attentionz! Got it?!!

SHOPPING OUR STASH #413 - My Heart Is On Fire

Good Morning and welcome crafty friends!

This fortnight at SHOPPING OUR STASH,  

as our theme suggests, we are

celebrating all things hearts. 

For my card, I took it a bit literally and created

a grungy, heart afire card:

Sometime last year, I made a bunch of panels using different Nuance powder

dyes. I die cut my heart from one of them. For the flames, I sponged a couple

colors of Distress Inks onto some white card stock, spritzed some Granite 

Glimmer Mist over it then die cut. The white panel was splattered with

black spray ink, then I stamped around the edges with my favorite

grunge stamp. A heat embossed sentiment on the banner

die completes my card.

 

I hope that you get a chance to play along at Shopping Our Stash!

We'd love to see how you interpret our challenge. Need more inspiration?

Simply check out the amazing projects that my teammies made!

Thanks for stopping by. Have a great day!
