Snark to the rescue!

 

 Can you believe this milestone? The 200th challenge at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers!

 Here is my project-

 


I was actually going to use this as my Queen card, and changed my mind. Now, recent events have happened to rethink that decision, so I'm entering this at the Sisterhood! I gave this card to my father-in-law, as he has the perfect humor for it (And he knows that I'm poking fun at the Thanksgiving dinner disaster!). He laughed so hard! So, I printed the picture off the internet, computer generated the sentiment, and added it to patterned cardstock. 

I hope you had a very Merry Christmas, and let's hope a better New Year!

S is for Snark!

 

 Can you believe this milestone? The 200th challenge at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers! And the challenge theme is Y is for Yuletide!

 Here is my project-


and on the inside-




This kinda sums up my Yuletide Spirit! As I age, I don't decorate, no tree, etc. Too much work just for me and the hubby! The stamp I used is from Artistic Impressions called Cheers to You, colored with Copics. Christmas paper is from Michaels (a long time ago), and the sentiments are computer generated. 

I hope you have lots of Christmas cheer and a happier New Year!

N is for Naughty

SoSS #198 N is for Naughty

 Another fun challenge with the Sisterhood! Here is my project-



Love Vintage images, and this one I found somewhere on the internet (I can't remember where, too long ago!). I have folders in my desktop I put them in, and use when the mood strikes me! Sentiment is computer generated, and all of it is mounted on some gorgeous red flocked scraps I had. I may add pearls or sequins if I get to it!

Thanks to the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers for a wonderful challenge!

Pinkfresh Wreath Challenge

 November 2021 Challenge

 Soooo...I have never owned Pinkfresh products before I got a Glimmer machine. I was watching Jennifer McGuire foil, and use Pinkfresh coordination stencils. Then I watched a Pinkfresh Studio video about the Solid Foil Plate-and ordered a bunch of stuff during the video! Here is my first attempt at foiling and stenciling with Pinkfresh! I am entering the challenge, btw.

 


 This was put together with:

Pinkfresh Studio Diamond Plaid Stencil

Pinkfresh Studio Daisy Wreath Hot Foiling Plate 

Pinkfresh Studio Daisy Wreath Layered Stencil Set

Pinkfresh Studio Daisy Wreath Die

Spellbinders More Sentiments 

 This was so much fun to make!

R is for Rude

 SOSS Challenge #197 - R for Rude


Wow, I finally get to participate in another great challenge from the Sisterhood! I can definitely do rude!

Here is my project-

 
The only flaw in the card is who I can give it to, that respects the snarky aspect of it! Too bad that most people would be insulted to get this card-I think I'll give it to my sister. Or not.

The stamps set is called "Old Bag" and is from Unity Stamp Co. I used a portion of a real brown paper brown bag and stamped it with Gathered Twigs Distress Oxide. The cardstock is from a 6 x 6 pad that I fussy cut around the frame, and the dots are paper punched from the left over paper.

Thank you Sisterhood, for letting me get my rude on.

Kat Scrappiness Fall Challenge

 Hello! Today I'm joining the Kat Scrappiness Challenge, and the theme is fall. Here is my project-



On this card I used the Forest for the Trees Die and the deer from Crafters Essentials Winter Dies, both by Kat Scrappiness. The sentiment is from Lawn Fawn's You Autumn Know. The background is made with watercolor paper sprinkled with Brusho's. I think it gave a really pretty effect.

Thanks for joining me.

F is for...

At the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers, the challenge is-

SoSS Challenge #191: F is for F Words


And I decided to make my card to fit two F words! Here is my project-


And then the Snark!


This was inspired by a Jennifer McGuire Video of Swing Cards. I needed a card to thank a friend of ours for taking my husband to the Knoxville Nationals (The biggest sprint car race in the world!). And since he's an Indian chief, what was more natural than feathers? Here are the materials I used to make this card-

  1. Die: Detailed Feather (Kaisercraft), circle dies (My Favorite Things).
  2. Sentiment: Unity Stamp Co., Versamark Ink, Zing Silver Embossing Powder.
  3. Paper: wood patterned cardstock, silver and copper shimmer cardstock.
  4. Other: twine, foam dot.

I think he'll like it.

No being sentimental!

 

SoSS #178 - N is for No

Another great challenge from the Sisterhood!

Here is my project-


 So, this does fit the "NO" theme. No sentimental crap. An anti-Valentine for my brother. He likes it! Very simple to create, computer generated sentiments and Unity Stamps poop emoji's. I think smiling poop counteracts the negativity, don't you?

G is for glitter!

 

 Today I am a guest designer at Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers, and the theme is-

G is for Glitter!


And here is my project-

Front


Inside


I love to make anti-Valentines for my brother, niece, and friends. Since the theme is Glitter, I used glitter cardstock scraps to make the hearts (Poppy Stamps Heart Hillside-retired). The sentiment is a sticker I found in my NBUS stash, and the inside sentiment is computer generated with a Unity Stamp "poop" symbol! That is stamped onto white glitter paper and colored with a brown Copic. Glitter poop...who'd have thunk it?

Now get busy and get your glitter on and enter over at Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers!
