SOSS #252 - L for Lindsey


At the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers we're paying homage to our former teamie, Lindsey, lover of cats and all things purple.


As a fellow cat lover, I always think of cats when I think of Lindsey so featured a bunch of cats on my card.  Of course, it's snarky too.  Duh!

ATCAS #262 - Summer


Whee!  It's time for another Addicted to CAS Challenge.  This time the code word is summer.
 

What says summer more than a playground?  Now if this were my childhood all the slides were made of metal and summer was a time of burning your ass if you weren't careful--LOL.

CAS on Friday #287 - Watercoloring


For the latest CAS on Friday Challenge #287 we're asking for watercoloring.  

I haven't done much watercoloring lately but love it because it's so quick to color something.  I love the dreamy look too, don't you?

Tri Window Hugs


While I had the supplies out for my latest Addicted to Stamps & More card, I went ahead and made another tri-window card using Lawn Fawn Simply Celebrate sets.


As you can see I used the hugs portion of the tri-window die on the second card.  Eventually I'll use the stripey hugs too.  Waste not!

ATSM #471 - Make Your Mark


It's Make Your Mark time at the Addicted to Stamps & More Challenge #471.  If you use a coloring medium of any sort, you can join in the fun!


I realized the Lawn Fawn Simply Celebrate sets would fit very well with the Mama Elephant Tri Window Cover Die so did a holiday mashup.


I stamped and colored up the Lawn Fawn images, then used a candy cane stripe paper with the Tri Window.  I sponged just a tiny bit of Salvaged Patina in the bottom two windows.  I used Red Stickles on Rudolph's nose to tie in with the Lawn Fawn Big Scripty Be Merry.

ATCAS #261 - Critter


Don't these little alpacas look cozy warm and ever so ready for the Addicted to CAS #261 Critter challenge?


I created a simple scene using the Sunny Studio Alpaca Holiday set, coloring them up with Copics that had more of a muted gray tone than my usual.  


I used WOW! White Puff Twinkle Embossing Powder on the snowcaps to add some glamorous texture.  So sparkly!

CAS on Friday #286 - Nature


Nature is the topic for the latest CAS on Friday Challenge this fortnight.  

I live in the Pacific Northwest and thought of the mountains naturally but also how we're known as the Evergreen State for a very good reason.  A bit less green with the increasing housing density unfortunately but still lovely to see outside the city.


I used the diecut negative to create another holiday card using up a watercolor panel where I dabbed a bit of Catherine Poolers inks at the top then spritzed with water and let it drip down. Cool!
