stamped the sentiment from my very own stamp set: Hot Mess

snarky challenge at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers!

Christmas Kickstart Challenge #29 + the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers = Christmas Cheer!




Hello and welcome snarky peeps!
Guess what? The Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers are Guest Elves

The theme for this challenge is near and dear to us Sistahs,
Christmas Cheer! (a.k.a. Alcohol!)

My card was my mass produced holiday card last year. Jo pointed out to me that this
would work well for our co-challenge, so I held back from blogging about it 
until now.



I have cocktail napkins with this sentiment on them, so I knew I wanted to make
a card with it. I stamped the people image and only colored the drinks. The sentiment
was computer generated, and I used up a bunch of hoarded Christmas
 paper for the back panel. Very easy for a massed produced card!

I hope that you'll find some time this month to play along at Jo's
Christmas Kickstart Challenge! She always has a fun prize up
for grabs so why not play along, and get a head start on your
holiday cards? For more fun holiday cheer, please visit
the blogs of my Snarky Sisters to see their makes!

Thanks for visiting, have a great day!

SISTERHOOD OF SNARKY STAMPERS #148 - Q is for Quip


Hello and welcome!
It's time again for the next challenge at the
 This time around it's Q is for Quip!
According to the dictionary, a quip is a clever or witty remark or comment.
Could this challenge BE more perfect for the Sisterhood?!! LOL!

 Here's what I came up with:


...and the zinger on the inside:
 

When you visit the main blog, you'll notice that a few of the Sisters
used similar stamps on their cards, me among them.
Sister Donna loaded her card first. Apparently Sister Barbara had plans to
use the same stamps, so she commented that she guessed she wouldn't be
using it. Donna came back to say to go ahead and use it. I piped in saying it
would be funny if we all used the same stamps. Donna gave a big thumbs up,
so....challenge accepted! LOL!

Since I had enough paper for a second card, I made another one:


Now it's your turn to break out those witty, sarcastic sentiment stamps and
create something with them! We'd love to see what you made linked up
at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers blog. For more cheeky projects,
do check out what my Sistahs, and our reigning Queen, Lauren, have made
for your viewing pleasure. You may not want to be drinking or eating

SISTERHOOD OF SNARKY STAMPERS #129 - D is for Diet


Hello snarky peeps!
their newest challenge: D is for Diet!

This was kind of hard for me at first, since I don't really own any
diet themed stamps. But there is this thing call a meme, so I Googled 
memes about diets and came up with these two cards: 



I love to pair snarky sentiments with these retro gals from
Riley & Co. I simply printed the sentiments out
with the help of my computer and printer. 
I thought they needed a bit more something, so I used a couple
grungy border stamps around the edges, and done!




Now it's your turn to dazzle the Sisters with your projects about diets! We'd 
love to see your take on it. Just link up at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers so
we can admire it! Need more ideas? Simply check out what my Sisters, and our
newest Queen & GD Tenia, have created for your viewing pleasure.
Have fun and thanks for popping by!

SHOPPING OUR STASH #374 - Inspiration Quote



Hello and happy Tuesday crafty peeps!
This week Mimi is your Hostess at 
and she's chosen a gorgeous quote to inspire you:


For my card, I went with an elegant silhouette and die cut frames, then
added pearls and a snarky sentiment, because, why not?!
(You'll see Donna and I had the same idea! GMTA!)



The pearls I used are Frankensteined from a Fleur de Lis made 
of pearls. No, really!


Here's a close up:

SISTERHOOD OF SNARKY STAMPERS #101 - T is for Technique



Hello hello!
The next two weeks are brought to you by the letter T-
as in T for Technique!

We want you to try a technique, any technique. Either one that you love to do,
or perhaps one that you've yet to try. Easy peasy!

For my technique, I tried using a Gelli plate for the first time.
I'm not gonna lie, it won't be the last time.
I had a blast pulling prints! I was lucky to have won a 
starter kit last summer, and never got up the nerve to try it out, until now.
My plate is only 5" x 5", but for now, I'm happy to play with that. I made
12 prints so far, and made a couple cards out of them.

Here's the first one:

 and the inside:

Here's the print I used. 

All the prints. This is the first print.

 the second print:

 the last print. Some I like, some not so much. But I'm still learning.
(sorry for the crappy pictures. I was using my phone camera, and yes,
these are drying on my treadmill. What else do you use a treadmill for?)

I forgot to take a close up of the next print, but here's the second card I made:

I've used a variety of stencils, bubble wrap, and even the cap from a deodorant stick! HA!
Of course, there HAD to be some snark on these babies!

So, now it's your turn to play. Use a favorite technique, or try something new. Just
link up at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers so we can see what you made!
Looking for some inspiration? Simply visit the blogs of my Sisters, and this year's
first Guest Designer, Toni, to see what they came up with!
Thanks for visiting, and I hope you have a great day!
