SoSS #145 - Z is for Zaphod Beeblebrox

Greetings snarky pals!!

Thanks for stopping by for a visit with Edna and the sisterhood of snarky stampers!

Our new challenge theme is Z is for Zaphod Beeblebrox.

This is the second SoSS challenge in a row that I had NO idea what we were talking about!

LOL

Neverfear, I am the queen of a quick google and I soon discovered this:

Zaphod Beeblebrox is a fictional character in the various versions of the humorous science fiction story The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams. He is from a planet in the vicinity of Betelgeuse, and is a "semi-half-cousin" of Ford Prefect, with whom he "shares three of the same mothers"

Clearly this is a book I need to read!

I should also note that I am also sporting an eye patch as I type this...but that's a story for another day...

For the challenge, I went with an alien theme with a quote from the book (keeping in mind I have never read the book...)

Shite I used to make this card:

• White cardstock (Paper Studio)
• Pink & purple cardstock (SU)
• Green cardstock (Recollections)
• Stay Magical design paper (Craft Smith)
• Owl punch (SU)
• Googly eyes
• Sentiment made with my trusty ole P-touch 1290 label maker

As always, we would love for you to join the sisterhood and play along.
