The Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers Challenge ##270 - N is for New or Never

The Sisterhood are starting the New Year in great form as we invite you to play N is for New or Never!

I'm playing with two NEVER stamps as I've not inked-up Dorothy and Alice before. 

The girl's are from Visible Image, and you can find Alice here and Dorothy here. I enjoyed adding embossing powder to Dorothy shoes for that essential ruby slipper sparkle. 

I've had idea this in my head for a while after seeing a fun meme of this pair, but needed a little push from the sistahs to bring it to fruition. I'm glad I did as it's quite fun and I think I'll keep it on my desk to give me a chuckle from time-to-time. 

I'm linking this project over at a totally-new-to-me Challenge Heart's Quest Fantasy Challenge Quest. 

I'm not 100% sure if Alice and Dorothy are quite what the Heart's Quest gals have in mind, but it's an Anything Goes Challenge for this month so I'll keep my fingers crossed. This looks like such a fun place to play and the DT inspiration is great! 

Our Queen for our challenge at SoSS is Michelle, and she's created a super-fun card to help us launch a new theme and a new year of snarky fun. I hope you'll come and play along! 

Now where's my cake?

 Another day, another card...I know, it surprised me too. 

Just look at this little cross-patch from Visible Image - so cute! I paired him with a sentiment from Purrfect Sentiments by Waffle Flower plus a stenciled and splattered background so I could play a few different challenges. 

AAA Birthday are playing Background Focus for Game #65.

Time Out Challenges are getting Snarky! 

And the lovely folk over at The Lost Coast Portal to Creativity would like to see Animals.

BTW, there are some fabulous new Animal images at Lost Coast - you can find them here.

Here's hoping your Thursday is going well and like mine, includes some crafting time.
 

Let's Squash It! Challenge #16 - Under the Sea

 

Challenge #16 is now open over at Let's Squash It! and Gail and I are joined by another lovely for this one. Our theme is 'Under the Sea' and we'd like to see your fishy, salty, watery wonders for this challenge. 

I went good 'n' grungy as I need a few masculine cards in the next few weeks. I don't have a sea related embossing folder (yet!), so I created a watery background with some spray inks and stamped and clear embossed this fabulous sea horse from Visible Image.

The embossing folder is Alpha from Kaisercraft and I love how it adds fabulous texture to the card. 

We very much hope you'll head on over and join the fun for this challenge! 

The Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers Challenge #161 - I is for Inks

We have a gorgeously inky Edna as our inspiration graphic for this challenge!

I do love playing with my inks and had a fabulous time with a new Visible Image stencil and this gorgeously fuchsia Distress Ink. The new toys didn't end there as I couldn't resist a little Lockdown treat of a cute set of girlies from Kraftin' Kimmie. I paired the skater girl with a nice snarky sentiment and then layered her onto an inky layer created with a beautiful Hero Arts flower and Parrot coloured ink from Altenew.

I have to say that I really enjoyed making this card! My sisters have inked-up some fabulousness and we have a new Queen - so come along and join the fun!
