SISTERHOOD OF SNARKY STAMPERS #201 - I is for Ink

 

Hello and welcome snarky peeps! Holy Crap, it's 2022!

It's also time for the new challenges to start up at the

SISTERHOOD OF SNARKY STAMPERS!

For this first challenge of the new year, we want to see

your inky creations! Speaking of inky, Sister Lee has

done it yet again with this glorious colorful graphic!

For my card, I used Dylusions ink sprays on the background

panel, plus alcohol ink markers to color the cake image:

This was a labor of love. In the below picture, the original

cake image is shown, along with a bunch of stamped and fussy cut

candles that I added. Once I had everything stuck down, I gave

the flames a coating of Crystal Stickles for a bit of sparkle.

I continued the snark on the inside of my card:

Guess what? I decided to make TWO cards! Yay me!

I hope that you'll join Edna and the Sisters and play along in our

Ink challenge at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers!

Need more ideas? Just visit the blogs of my Sisters and our

reigning Queen, Stephanie, to see their amazing projects!

Thanks for visiting, have a great day!

SHOPPING OUR STASH #411 Gnome Sweet Gnome

Hello and welcome!

It's time for our first challenge of the new year at

SHOPPING OUR STASH!

The SOS Crew is rested from their holiday break and 

raring to go. For this challenge, Gnome Sweet Gnome, 

we want to see a gnome on your projects. It doesn't necessarily

need to be holiday themed, as there are garden gnomes too!

I used a rather newish gnome die that I got last month.

(Hey, it was last year, and also last decade, so I'm gonna 

say this die is pretty old. That's my story and I'm 

sticking with it. LOL!)

Here's the inside:

My card design is based off of the sketch from Inspire Create #59, 

The background paper came with the kit as did the stamps.

I used some of the snowflake stamps to create the gray oval

panel behind the gnome.

Since I made a few gnomes, I was determined to make more cards:

 

and the inside:

 

This one is based from Freshly Made Sketch #416.

On the inside sentiment, I used a red marker to

color in the word Christmas.

Here's the last one:

 

..the inside:

 

I love a good pun!

 

This card is based from Sketch Saturday #290. Again, I colored the

word Christmas with a red marker. I adore this wee little gnome. I think

I want to try making him into a garden gnome and create some birthday

cards with him. 

So now it's your turn to play along! We hope to see your gnome projects

linked up in the Shopping Our Stash gallery. For more ideas, do

check out what my teammies created for your viewing pleasure!

Thanks for visiting. Have a wonderful day!

SHOPPING OUR STASH #391 - Best Friends Day

Hello and welcome crafty friends!

This fortnight at SHOPPING OUR STASH we are

celebrating our best friends!

I really shopped my stash, and uncovered this stamp set

that had never seen ink! It's got to be at least 7 years old.

(***cough hoarder cough***)

Here's my take:

She is so cute! And bonus, that sentiment came with the set. I had that bit

of butterfly paper left so I based my coloring from it, using Spectrum Noir

markers. She's fussy cut and popped up on foam squares, as is the sentiment.

It's hard to see in this photo, but the barrette, beads, belt, bow and shoes have all been 

winked by Stella. A few rhinestones and done!

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

at Shopping Our Stash! We'd love to see your projects.

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