The Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers - Y is for Yuck

 

The Sisterhood are playing Y is for Yuck for the next two weeks and all our cards are heavy on the ewww factor. What a fabulously sick and twisted bunch we all are - I'm so proud!

Here's my card for the challenge. I just love this Katzelkraft Kitty's expression. 

We have a brilliant guest queen with us and I know you'll love her card, so please come over and join the fun...

Christmas Kickstart Challenge #72 - Reminder Post

I'm so happy to have Monika from Tinker Cards as our elf for this month over at Christmas Kickstart. 

Inspired by Monika's knitting skills, we're playing:

Challenge #72 - Wrapped up for Christmas

We'd love to see a scarf or scarves on your cards, please.

This is Monika's sweet card...

You can find all the details of how Monika made her card by visiting her blog. 

I inked-up yet another sweet little MFT set for my inspired by card and CASE'd Monika's lovely background and the way she 'hangs' her characters over the edge of the masked area. Thanks for the inspiration, Monika!

I also sneaked in the cute pup from Snow Buddies as I felt the scene needed something extra. The sentiment is from this set by Mama Elephant. 

Rudolph has a great Random Raffle prize on offer for this challenge. 

So, please join Monika and me for our fun challenge... and don't forget we want to see a scarf or scarves on your Christmas Cards!

Christmas Kickstart Challenge #72 - Wrapped up for Christmas!

 

I'm delighted to welcome the very lovely Monika from Tinker Cards as our elf for this month over at Christmas Kickstart.

Turns out that Monika is a knitter as well as a cardmaker, so the following theme seemed like a real must for our time together:

Challenge #72 - Wrapped up for Christmas

We'd like to see a scarf or scarves on your cards for this month, please. I broke out a sweet little MFT set for my card. 

I do miss the Birdie Brown images and have been trying to add to my collection of Torico's sets whenever I spot some stamps I like and haven't got.

Rudolph is onboard as usual with a prize for his Random Raffle. 

  

So, please join Monika and me for our fun challenge... and don't forget we want to see a scarf or scarves on your Christmas Cards!

The Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers Challenge #229 - I is for Ink

 

Hi there, we've got a great challenge on offer for the next two weeks at The Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers as we play I is for Ink. As you can see our very own Edna is way ahead of us all with the inkiness. 

I'm currently having waaaay too much fun with my VLVS images and couldn't resist inking-up this fab gal and this sentiment for the challenge. The background was made with a Funky Fossil stencil (such good value and quality) and a selection of Distress Inks. 

If you'd like to get inky with the sistahs why not come on over and join the fun!

 Yes, it's time for yet another lovely Reveal over at The Card Chain Challenge.

We had 33 awesome participants who exchanged cards across the globe during February, giving us a total number of cards exchanged thus far of 3,911. 

 

All the cards exchanged this month used at least one of the following options:

Colour Palette Option

(Exact matching is not required.)

 

Sketch Option

(Orient as desired.)

Theme Options: Hearts / Tags / Friendship

Product / Technique Options: Burlap or Gauze / Layers

 

Just look what Viv in UK sent to me...

The photograph seriously does not do justice to Viv's card as her design and stamping is amazing.

I sent this to Dee in Kenya...

I was in the mood for some die cutting as I really like this new hugs die from Jane's Doodles.

As always, I'm blown away by the talent and the variety of ways in which the links in our chain have used the themes on offer, so why not head on over and take a look. 

Playing in Snippets Playground Challenge #448

 

After a very busy few weeks I've suddenly found myself with time to craft and what a tonic it has been. 

I made this crazy little card with the intention of playing along with Di and the Snippets gang over here. Sometimes a card idea jumps 'fully formed' into your mind, and this is what happened after I saw this crazy fake quote:

Can you spot my Snippet? It's quite subtle, but fun. The background is one of my gel prints, which may also count as a Snippet.  

Di's challenge is still open until the weekend, so why not go and play along... she has such cute prizes on offer AND you can follow the links for a Dudley update!
