Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers - #174 - E is for Elves

 Good morning all my snarky pals! 

Today, Edna's challenge at Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers is a good one... 

E is for Elves




For this challenge, I made a card for a friend.. she will definitely appreciate this one! I used some scrapbook paper for the background, stamped the tree and presents, and found these images on Pinterest! And of course, my snarky sentiment is mine! LOL!!  

My boys were too old for Elf on a Shelf, but if they were younger, I would definitely find some good ways to hide him! LOL!! I wonder if I could sneak into the shop every morning to hid one now... hmmmm????

Anyhow, I do hope you will check out what the amazing Sistahs have come up with for this challenge from Edna! 

Stay safe, and have a fantastic week!

Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers - #169 "S is for Slider"

 Good morning all my snarky friends!

Well... Edna has quite the challenge today at Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers ...



"S is for Slider"

I tried really, really, really hard to come up with a slider card.. 

but I just couldn't resist this little guy instead!

 (He can slide, so it works for this challenge!)   LOL!!

I know, I have a really warped sense of humor.... LOL!!! My boys just think I am weird! Regardless, this little guy works, and the stars and the explosion he is sitting on are all stamped and embossed!


I do hope you will share your "Sliders" with us today! The challenge is open for 2 weeks, so get busy! And do take a moment to check out what the Sistahs have come up with!

Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers - #168: F is for Friends

 Good Morning all my snarky pals! 

Edna has a great new challenge this week at Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers ...

"F is for Friends"




For this challenge I made a 6" x 6'" art journal page using some Golden Iridescent Copper which I painted over the page, and then used a stencil The Crafter's Workshop .. TCW461 Rosetta to wipe away some of the paint from the base.  I added some circles using a stamp and Archival Sepia ink. I then spritzed on some Tattered Angles Burlap mist, added my image, some washi tape and my sentiment! Easy Peasy!



I do hope you will join Edna and the Sistahs for this fun challenge! 

Happy Creating!

Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers - #158 - U is for Upcycle

Good morning all you snarky fans! Edna has a new challenge up at


U is for Upcycle


For this challenge I decided to make a canvas piece that I am going to adhere to the front of a cardboard card... one day! I upcycled a little of different bits and bobs, but the best piece was the old rusty nail! This nail, and a whole pail full, came from a 150 year old beam that my son de-nailed to use in some furniture he was building. 
I just HAD to keep these... one never knows when one wants to get nailed!!! 


Not such a snarky piece, but it is upcycled for you! 

Thanks for taking a peek and I do hope you will join Edna and the Sistahs this challenge!!!You have 2 weeks to upcycle and share!

SOSS #156 - K is for KIDS

Hello all! Join Edna and the Sisters for another awesome challenge at Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers!



This challenge is a fun one and I had so many ideas running through my brain, but I settled for this fun art journal piece!! Kids come in all shapes and sizes, but I do find them a bit snarky at times... hence my use of images of them! LOL! (And thank God mine are older and out of the house!!).

For this piece, I played with colors, smashing them down on some black cardstock, embossing my circles with white embossing powder, stamping with some background stamps, and of course my photo and snarky saying!


Thanks for taking a peek and do join us at SOSS!!!

((HUGS))
