SOSS #132 - K is for Karma


Time for a new Sisterhood of Snarky Sisters challenge.  Can you guess what it is?


Oh, duh, it's in my post title but hopefully you would have gotten karma from my card. LOL.


I've been wanting to use this sentiment for the longest time. I stamped it and the dog in Versafine and watercolored with Zigs. As simple as that!

The Details:  Tim Holtz Crazy Dogs, Riley & Co sentiment, Zig Watercolor Markers (041, 044, 062, 063, 092 222, 260), Strathmore Bristol Paper, Versafine Onyx Black

Whimsy - Bunny Sunshine


Are you fans of Winnie the Pooh? That is what I was reminded of with the illustration style of the new Whimsy Bunny Buddies set. So precious!  I decided to create a soft scene inspired by that style.


I used Zig watercolor markers and free-handed most of the background except for the clouds. It occurred to me I could use the Up in the Clouds dies to act as masks. Worked a treat! It was so helpful in creating cloud layers, let me tell ya.

Whimsy - Ruff Day


Woof! Woof!  The April Whimsy release is here and I'm here to shout it out to the world! Except I'm wearing a cone and it's all your fault. :(

LOL.  I love this pup from the Cone of Shame set. Just look at his face! Enough said!



I stamped the Cone of Shame image and sentiment with VersaFine Onyx Black onto Strathmore Bristol Smooth paper.  Everything is colored with Zig Realbrush Markers.  I was really hesitant about adding the freehand tree as I really liked how the dog & house image turned out but decided to just bite the bullet. Whew!  Turned out better than I was hoping!


That red is so swoon-worthy! But still, my favorite part of the card is the dog's expression!

BRI - Wonderland
