T is for Tags at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers.

 Another two weeks has flown by and the weather has gone from Winter to summer and now we are having spring, so nice to have comfortable temperatures. 

Here is Edna to announce our newest challenge at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers.


Wow so many tags Edna is sporting on her dress. 

Here is what I finally came up with for the challenge. sadly it is a "snarkless" project. 


I am not sure why I went this route for my tag, it never occured to look up one of my AI beauties or a Stella digi from my computer but I did take myself way out of my comfort zone. Yellow/orange combo is not a favourite and I really don't do mixed media but I blended the oxide inks, added a few bubble from a stencil flicked water on it before I added the wild flower die cuts and the Smile die cut which I cut 3 times to pop it up.


closer look at the sentiment and you can see the stencil bubbles. 


I used my TH tag sizzix die to make the tag. 

I'm adding this to:

It's Ornamental, My Dear Watson....

It's a new challenge at the Jingle Belles and since my hair appointment was rescheduled I had s bit of free time to make a card for the challenge and get it done before the linky closed, well surprise I'm early, wow, it doesn't end until next Wednesday. 


I was inspired by a teamie's sunset scene you will find it HERE although I think I was a little more heavy handed when blending. I uses Gently Falling embossing folder for the background on navy stardream cardstock the ornament is silver and I layered it with two heavy cardstock layers, The Merry also cut out of Silver posterboard and 3 additional layers were cut to elevate it .


Since I kput Merry on the front with no room for Christmas I added "and bright" ancient rub on from Stampin'up and a sentiment from Stampendous.

I'm adding this to:

Jingle Belles Rock ~~ Ornamental My Dear Watson

Just Us Girls ~~ #609 Word Week Merry

Thanks for stopping by today and there is still time to make more ornament cards.

Pink Christmas is the Challenge at the Jingle Belles.

 So much to do so little time. It's turned pretty cool here in SWO but at least the sun is out now, I am so tired of the rain and damp weather. Although I have heat at cottage but it's just not fun when it's raining. A couple more trips to bring things home for the season and of course to drain the water and winterize it. I had an idea for my card but then
realized some of my Christmas things are not home and neither is my embossing equipment. I have doubles of a lot of things but a heat gun isn't one of them.  


After many months of looking I found some metallic poster board at Len's Mills there are 5 colouts but unlide the ones I have bought at Dollar Tree one of the colours is deep pink not red.  I used Elizabeth Craft Designs Entwined Circles and the snowflake die from the sset as well. added a few rhinestones and a die cut JOY, the background was embossed with a Stampin'up sequin embossing folder


Finished the inside with an embossed strip and some leftover snowflakes. And a holiday sentiment from Stampendous. 


A closer look so you can see the metallic die cuts are very pink.

Yellow ~~ Not my Favourite Colour!!


Look at Edna all dressed up for the prom and all that YELLOW.

Hello peeps it's time for a new challenge at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers and it's Y is for YELLOW, as I said not my favourite colour but I took my self out of the pink phase and made a yellow card, actually it's a Crushed Curry card.


When thinking of snark my go to stamps are Art Impressions and Bugaboo so for this challenge I decided to go with "girlfriends" As you see she has a glass of wine and of course my favourite is Pino Gregio as it went better with yellow. The die cut is an ancient one from Stampin'up and I rarely use it but it went well with the Elizabeth craft designs stitched circle die I quite often paper piece the couch on this image but decided to just do grey stripes (just like the packaging) much easier than paper piecing. The patterned paper and the crushed curry cardstock are also years old so I'm digging to the bottom of the pile. 


The sentiment is from a Creative Impressions Wine Not 20 piece set of clear stamps and was die cut with a EC designs stitched circle, a wink of stella on the wineand paper glaze on her glasses.


Finished the inside with the off cut from the front die and a few scraps of patterned paper and a Studio G sentment. and looking at this I realized I forgot to stamp Happy Birthday. 

I would like to add this to:

Happy Birthday!!!

At Shopping Our Stash we are going to be helping you get that stash of Birthday cards done. Challenge #416 is Happy Birthday, that is self explanatory. I am always needing birthday cards, I quickly had to make one for my Great Grandson on Saturday, that's what happens if you don't have a stash.


Talk about shopping my stash, I found this super cute computer generated image already coloured in my "parts" box so just added some co-ordinating paper and voila' a birthday card for a little one.


Finished the inside with some scraps left over from the front and a very old long retired Birthday sentiment set from Stampin'up. 

I'm entering this in:
Seize the Birthday ~~ #185 A Touch of Green.

Time Out Challenges ~~ #157 Birthday


Thanks for stopping by and I hope you find time to join in the Birthday fun at Shopping Our Stash.
