Let's do the Snark Off!

I've made no secret of my long-standing admiration of The Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers. When I was recently lucky enough to win a GDT gig with them I was giddy as a proverbial kipper! 

Now Edna and the girls are inviting us good crafty folk to try out for a six month design team slot and guess who can't resist throwing her hat into the great, fiery 'Ring of Snark'!



After that big build-up I'll bet you were expecting a sizzlingly-snarkladen offering... Well, let's just hope this glamour puss from Art Impressions at least gives the Snarkettes a giggle!


I always enjoy paper-piecing the sofa on this AI stamp as it gives a great effect for very little effort. I coloured and fussy-cut and then spent ages trying to fit the speech bubble!


 Here's the inside of the card...


I couldn't resist sneaking in a MFT cat!

So there we are, I'm off to view the Snark Off and then to make my card for SoSS Challenge #56 which is J is for Joke!

Happy crafting everyone!
