Christmas cards part 2

 Hello, me again.

Here's the November set of cards I made

for Kendra's Card Challenge #12:

I stamped two of these panels and colored them with

Spectrum Noir markers. I used almost all of them

on this batch of cards!

Here are close ups of the cards:

That's set 2! One more to post about, coming up. See you soon! LOL!

Supplies: (some - too much to type!)

Stamps: Lawn Fawn - Ho Ho Holidays, Winter Wavy Sayings; Stampers Anonymous - Tiny Text Christmas; Sunny Studio - Season's Greetings

Some Christmas cards I made recently

 Hello and welcome, friends.

I have some cards to share that I

recently made using the

Kendra's Card Challenge #12.

This group of cards were my October set:

Here are close ups of the cards:

I usually make Christmas cards all year long, but I had no mojo for

most of the year. These sketch challenges that Kendra does

really came in handy!

Well, more posts to come. This was the first set in the quarterly challenge.

Thanks for visiting. Have a great day!

Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers #245 - J is for Jessi

Hello and welcome friends!

Edna and my sisters are back from the Funny Farm,

I mean, an extended break, and

are gearing up for some snarky shenanigans in 2024!

(Not to mention our 10th year!)

Our last challenge of 2023 is a very special one,

as we pay tribute to our beloved sister and friend, Jessi,

who lost her heroic battle with gastroparesis on December 27, 2018.

My "Evil Double Mint Twin", she shared my intensely 

sarcastic sense of humor, as well as a love of swearing! 😉

She was a fellow design team member at Drunken Stampers as

well as Shopping Our Stash. 

We'd love to see your Jessi inspired projects in our gallery. If you knew

her, let us know what about your project reminded you of her. If you

didn't know her, you can visit her blog for inspiration.

I've CASED one of Jessi's cards, for my inspiration.

It took a while to whittle it down, as she had sooooo many

fantabulous cards!

I even had doilies in my stash!

Here's the finished inside:

I hope that you'll join Edna and my sisters in

celebrating our dear sister, Jessi. While we won't have a

Queen or Princesses for this special challenge, there

may be a special prize to be had!

(nudge, nudge, wink, wink, know what I mean?!)

Thanks for visiting. 💖

Forever in our hearts and in our thoughts. Love and miss you Sistah.

Holiday Greetings

 Hello and happy Fri-Yay!

I've been having fun playing

with more poinsettia dies

and created another card with them:

In a challenge to myself to use older papers in my stash,

I grabbed a paper pad that's at least 11 years old,

and has a distressed, grungy look to it.

I die cut the main panel from kraft cardstock, then

decided to splatter it with black and white acrylic paints.

It reminded me of burlap after I did that!

I decided that the flowers and leaves needed to be

distressed also. I used a blending brush with whatever

brown ink was on it already and went over the petal tips and leaves.

Here's the finished inside:

I'm taking advantage while Mr. Mojo is in town and

am trying to make a card a day. 😁

That's it for now. Thanks for visiting.

I hope that you have a great day!

Merry Christmas!

Three birds

Hello there and welcome!

I'm really trying to replenish my 

stash of birthday cards.

Here's another card I'd like to share: 

I had this (in hindsight, not so) brilliant idea to use the

negative of a die cut for my focal image, and let the

paper behind it show through. I forgot about the few itty bitty

pieces that had to be put back. Trying to glue a tiny bit

of cardstock that's smaller than a pin head made me

feel stabby, but I did it. (I'm never doing that again)

I did first try using a white marker to fill in the 

two tiny spots, but it wasn't opaque enough.

Here's the finished inside:

Now I have yet another birthday card done! Yay!

That's all for now. Thank you for visiting.

I hope that you have a great day!
