SoSS #159 - M is for Magic


Greetings & salutations snarky pals.

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

Hope all is well & safe in your socially isolated corner of the world.
It's been a long 7 weeks of working at home and social isolation.
We are staying home and staying safe.
Hoping for all of us that we can return to some degree of normalcy in the not too distant future.

Tell the truth, I am not feeling very magical...or snarky...sigh...

But like to good little troopers we are, we keep on keepin' on...

I think my yearning to be close to the ocean is starting to kick in...happens every spring, only this year, not sure if we are going to be able to make that happen.

So, in deference to my love of the ocean (and a stretch of something magical???)...a mermaid!


Shite I used to make this card:

  • White cardstock (Recollections)
  • Mermaid Dreams 6x6 paper pack (Echo Park)
  • Mermaid Dreams element stickers (Echo Park)
  • Die cut mermaid (Recollections)
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!

Happy Little Stampers - Bling ATC


Greetings friends!

I don't know about you, but I have made hundreds of holiday cards over the past few months! I am soooooooooo beyond ready to be crafty with anything that is NOT Christmas related.

That and I must be tired of the cold, freezing rain and snow here in Southern Ontario as I am wishin' I was on a beach somewhere or swimming with the mermaids!

I made this ATC for the Happy Little Stampers December ATC Challenge. 

Their theme is bling, which I reflected on my mermaid ATC in the sparkly seaweed glitter and the shiny heart brads.


Shite I used to make this ATC:

  • Cardboard ATC base
  • 2 1/2" circle punch
  • Mermaid Dreams 6x6 paper pad (Echo Park)
  • Mermaid Dreams ephemera (Echo Park)
  • Green glittler glue (Dollarama)
  • Gold heart brads (from my stash)
Keep on swimmin' and thinkin' happy and warm thoughts!

Happy Little Stampers ATC Challenge - Ocean / Sea


I was super excited to see the new Happy Little Stampers ATC Challenge for September.

The theme is Ocean / Sea and maybe I just got a whole mermaid themed paper kit!!

Some things are just meant to be!

ATC's for the challenge could be cards or coins, so I made one of each.

OK, really I made 4 cards and 1 coin, but these 2 are my favourites of the bunch.






Shite I used to make these ATCs:

  • Cardboard ATC bases from a frozen pizza box (re-purpose!!!)
  • Mermaid Dreams 6x6 paper pad (Echo Park)
  • Mermaid Dreams Ephemera (Echo Park)
  • Pearl stickers (Recollections)
  • Jute String (Tim Holtz)
  • Bling stickers (Recollections)
  • Small Talk Snarky stickers (Tim Holtz)
As mentioned above, I would like to enter these into the Happy Little Stampers ATC Challenge for September - Ocean / Sea

OK changed my mind (LOL), here are the other three mermaid ATC's I made:
