SoSS #235 - S is for Steampunk

Greetings and salutations snarky pals!

Thanks for stopping by to check out the latest challenge from Edna and the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers.

It's the most wonderful time of the year!!

Yep, unlike the majority of the sisterhood, I am all about the S is for Steampunk challenge...it's a great excuse to make a big old inky mess (who doesn't love THAT??)

Also a great excuse to break out some of my fave Tim Holtz stuff...ok let's be honest...ALL of his stuff is my fave stuff!

It's been forever since I made a tag and believe it or not, I did start with a manilla tag - but then I added ink, ink, and more ink, stencil, stencil and more stencil, stamp, stamp and more stamp, maybe a few of my own fingerprints...and this is what I ended up with:

Shite I used to make this tag:

• Manilla craft tag (Ranger)
• Tumbled Glass, Spiced Marmalade, Squeezed Lemonade, Frayed Burlap, Faded Jeans, Fired Brick distress oxide inks (Tim Holtz)
• Markings stencil (Tim Holtz)
• Observations stencil and stamp set (Tim Holtz)
• Inquisitive stamp set (Tim Holtz)
• Coffee Stains stencil (AALL & Create)
• Blending brushes (gifted from Sister Chelle)
• Mini stapler (Dollarama)

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

You can find all the details for the challenge on the SoSS BLOG.

While you are there, please share some crafty love and comments with our reigning Queen of Snark and the rest of the sisterhood.

SoSS #234 - Y is for Yo Mama

Greetings and salutations snarky pals!

Thanks for stopping by to check out the latest challenge from Edna and the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers.

Mother's Day is just around the corner for those of us in North America, so we are celebrating all things Yo Mama (interpret how you will).

My card morphed over a few hours, I was very displeased with it and it almost ended up (several times) in the recycling bin (it's only paper right??)

I kept adding to it, adding more ink, more stenciled layers, more watercolouring - meh, I am still not sure it won't end up in the bin...

Shite I used to make this card:

• White cardstock (Recollections)
• Weathered Wood, Peacock Feathers, Twisted Citron, Spiced Marmalade, Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxide inks (Tim Hotlz)
• Title stencil (AALL &Create)
• Coffee Stains stencil (AALL &Create)
• Nocturine Versafine Clair ink (Tsukineko)
• Winged Things stamp (Tim Holtz)
• Sarcastic Superpower stamp set (Rubber Dance)
• Paper piercer and mat (SU)
• Fine tip Sharpie
• Mini ink blending tool (Tim Holtz)
• Watercolour brushes (Tim Holtz)
• Bling (Michaels)
• Sentiment sticker (Krissyanne Designs)

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