A Tiny Craft (ATC) Challenge #9 - Flowers

 Hello and welcome back!

Today is the start of the May challenge at

A Tiny Craft (ATC) Challenge!

This month's prompt is FLOWERS!

ATC cards or coins are welcome.

Here's what I came up with:

Here are some close ups:

These were pretty easy to put together. My ATC bases are from

the Mixed Media Spring ATC Ephemera pack.

I die cut a bunch of flowers from white card stock using

the trendy spring blooms dies. Once I had them glued down,

I grabbed some scrap card stock and adhered sentiments

from the Shine Bright clear stickers, trimmed and adhered

with foam squares. I added some enamel dots to

finish my ATCs.

I hope that you'll join us this month for our flower

challenge at A Tiny Craft (ATC) Challenge! For more inspiration,

do check out what my teammates created to WOW you!

SISTERHOOD OF SNARKY STAMPERS #210 - F is for F Words

 

Hello snarky peeps and welcome!

It's time for one of our favorite challenges

at the SISTERHOOD OF SNARKY STAMPERS:

F is for F Words!

Felines, fire, fabric, etc. The possibilities are endless.

Me? You guessed it. I went for my favorite cuss word:

You've been warned.

Yes, I do realize that only after I stamped all those words, that

I probably should have placed them lower on the panel so

that they'd look like they were coming out of her mouth

instead of her forehead. LOL!

Even though the lady stamp is called Banksy Wall Singer, to me she sort of

looks like Frida Kahlo screaming, so I'm adding that to my F list!

I hope that you'll join us for our F Word challenge this fortnight at the

Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers! Go ahead and let your

freak flag fly! As always, snark is never mandatory to play along.

(But you know we love it!) Need more inspiration? Simply check

out what my Sisters have created for your viewing pleasure!

Thanks for visiting. Have a fantastic day!

SISTERHOOD OF SNARKY STAMPERS #209 - U is for Underwater

Hello and welcome back snarky peeps!

It's time for the new challenge at the

SISTERHOOD OF SNARKY STAMPERS!

For the next two weeks, we'd like to see your

underwater creations!

Here's what I came up with:

I used a new (to me) die cut plate that cuts an underwater

scene. Some blue ink blended DP serves as my watery backdrop.

The three fish cut outs I glued in the middle. I gave my

mermaid silhouettes some glam with gilding flakes, then added some

second generation bubble stamps at the top, and a few 

shells to finish the front.

 A simple sentiment finishes the inside.

I hope that you'll join my Sisters and our reigning Queen,

Monika, for our Underwater challenge at the

Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers!

Greetings and welcome snarky peeps!

It's time again for the next challenge at the

SISTERHOOD OF SNARKY STAMPERS!

This fortnight we want to see LAYERS on your projects.

Here's what I came up with:

I was using the colors from The Paper Players #586,

but after I finished my card, I realized that the challenge

ended yesterday. (Facepalm)

I let the G45 paper do all the work, well, all but the

heat embossed sentiment from one of my

stamp sets, Hot Mess.

I can totally see the lady in the middle saying this out the side of her

mouth to the lady wearing yellow. LOL!

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

at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers! For more inspiration, do check out

SISTERHOOD OF SNARKY STAMPERS #207 - A is for ATC

 

Hello and welcome snarky peeps! It's time again for the

new challenge starting at the

SISTERHOOD OF SNARKY STAMPERS!

This fortnight, we bring you the letter A for ATC!

We love Artist Trading Cards/Coins, so that's

what we want to see this time around.

Here's what I created:

I dug deep into my older MFT stamps, and decided to use a couple

WTG (who's that girl) stamps. I colored them with Spectrum Noir markers,

and was delighted to find some paper snippets that paired perfectly with

the images. I added some rhinestones for a bit of bling and

these were done!

Here are some close-ups:

Now it's your turn to create an ATC (card or coin, your choice) and

link it up to our ATC challenge at the

Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers!

When is a snarky sentiment not snarky?

 When you can make a non-snarky card!

Hi there, and welcome.

Yes, I've used a sentiment from one of my new

STAMPlorations stamp sets, Some Snark,

and created this:

(This post contains affiliate links, at no additional cost to you!)

I even made a one layer card! Who am I!?

I started by stamping the sandcastle from the

Beach Vibes stamp set and masking it. I blended the beach, water and

sky with a few inks. After removing the mask, I colored

the sandcastle with Spectrum Noir markers. Waves were added with a 

white Gelly Roll pen, the sentiment was stamped, and this 

card was done!

I'm so ready to head to the beach. How about you?

Underwater birthday

 Hello and welcome!

Just popping in with a card I made for

the current AAA Birthday #35 - Under the Sea challenge:

Here's the inside:

The background was made by blending kraft and a couple blue inks onto

white card stock. I ripped some scrap paper to use as masks for where the sandy bottom

and the ocean meet. This was matted using a much-neglected wave punch, then

adhered to a pale blue card base. I stamped multiples of all the undersea critters 

and foliage, colored and die cut. Once everything was glued in place, 

I stamped the sentiment and another one on the inside.

I feel like it's been forever since I've colored anything, so it was

good to use my markers again. 💗

That's it for now. Thanks for visiting, and I hope you have a good day!

A dude card

 Hello and welcome!

I've managed to finally make a masculine card, something

of which I need more of. Why are they so hard to make?!

Anyway, here it is:

and the inside:

I've used a bunch of dies from various companies to put this together,

and I like how well it came out. I even did some clever die cutting with

the grass die to extend it to fit my slimline card. (it's an A2 sized die)

Well, that's all for today. I wish you a happy first day of Spring!
