SOSS #234 - Y for Yo Mama


Ready for another Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers Challenge?  Bet yo' mama I am!


My inner science geek loves this card! Flourine is extremely reactive so, yeah, yo' mama is just that ugly that even flourine won't touch her. Oh, snap!

HLS Christmas - Trim the Tree

This fortnight's Happy Little Stampers Christmas Challenge is anything goes as always with the optional topic of "trim the tree." 


I used a Stamptember set I'm not sure I've used before--yeah, hoard much?  I paired it with a falling hearts as snowflakes background and kept the colorway really soft. What? Not bright? Check me for fever!

I used the Concord & 9th Garden Grown stencils and stamps for my card, pairing them with the Lawn Fawn Giant Sending Big Hugs.


I really enjoyed choosing the colors for the fruits and vegs. Yum!

HLS Watercolour - Flowers


Are you ready for another HLS Watercolour Challenge? This month the optional topic is flowers. Perfect for spring although, yes, I made a holiday card. LOL. Any excuse to build my holiday card stash is welcome.


I sponged the card base and the Honey Bee diecuts with Distress Oxide, DO Spray, and water.

While those were drying, I stamped the sentiment in a bright Catherine Pooler Grass Skirt green and cut it out. 

Once I had everything assembled, I spattered the lot with Copic Opaque White then added the gold elements. I love, love, love this fresh color combo and the layout. Just something different for me. Okay, the pink isn't different but the layout is!

SOSS #233 - F for Flowers


F is for Flowers at the latest Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers Challenge.  Come join in the fun!


I used Pinkfresh Studio on my card which as a cardmaker made my card even snarkier in my eyes.  Pretty Pinkfresh Studio AND the word "fuck"--LOL.

For my sentiment which I created on my computer, I used Kaushan Script and Arial fonts.
