Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers Challenge #35: V is for Vellum



Edna looks a little blurry today.  Maybe she needs new glasses...or they could just need cleaning.  Well although that still could be true, she's actually sporting vellum today.  The Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers Challenge #35 is V is for Vellum!  Well after searching throughout a paper store (the one in my spare bedroom) I didn't find any vellum.  So I went to my local stamp store, Crackerbox Palace, and found a variety...thanks Vicky!  I should have just gone to you first!




I disassembled a tiny paper bag and used it to cut and score the green polka dot vellum.  I used a stamp I bought a long time ago.  It's Rocks from River City Rubber Works.  I had to have it being the rock hound I am.  The bag is filled with rocks...I had to strengthen the bottom of the bag!  These are only a few rocks in my ever-growing collection.  I have always collected rocks...everyone should collect some.  There is a great children's book called Everybody Needs a Rock.  It doesn't talk about collecting rocks, but about you finding your perfect rock.  Check it out!

Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers Challenge #34 ~ C is for Cake!

Hi All!

Welcome to the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers Challenge #34 ~ C is for Cake!  Look at all the cute Edna candles...such a fun cake for her.  I think everyone loves cake, except me.   The only cake I love is cheesecake...I know, I'm weird.  Well, you don't see many stamps of cheesecakes so I decided to use this yummy-looking cake.  If I liked cake, I would be thrilled with this one.  Now get going and bake make a cake project for Edna and link it to the SoSS site!


Other than using my Copics, all the products are from Fun Stampers Journey.  I fussy cut the cake and popped it out, partially overhanging the curve of the Note Pocket.  I stamped Whoo Hoo! on the insert because I think this might be said when the gift card attached to the back is seen!  The flower was stamped and die cut.  Then I curved the petals, adding dimension. and a Sparkle Dot.  I covered the heart and dotted the stars with Journey Glaze and the sprinkled Journey Sparkle Dust over them.

You can find the following products used on my Fun Stampers Journey site.

Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers Challenge #33 ~ M is for Monochromatic Mama

Hello Everybody!

Welcome to the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers Challenge #33 ~ M is for Monochromatic Mama.  We're looking for Monochromatic Mother's Day cards or projects.  I used a number of shades of orange to create my card. 

I decided to use the "You mean the world to me" stamp on the front of my card, rather than"Happy Mother's Day".  I use this stamp often...I really like the thought.  All products are from Fun Stampers Journey.

You can order any of these items on my Fun Stampers Journey site:

Stamps: AT-0025~Rose Garden, SS-0137~Ampersand Notes
Patterned Paper: PP-0003~Journey Basics (Retiring~On sale for $12.50)
