All Bundled Up

 The challenge at the Jingle Belles is "All Bundled Up" which interprets to Lots of Layers. Layers are not a problem for me unless it's for a challenge then I have a problem, Not as many layers as I had planned but it's only my second trip to the cottage and my "gathering" wasn't as good as I thought,  Note to self organize a whole card including the inside sentiment. 

Isn't he the gumpiest of gumpys? I made a 5 1/4 inch square card, I have a base and two layers and the image and 3 layers. plus the sentiment popped up. The patterned paper is Carta Bells Cabin Fever.

As I said my gathering skills were not good last Sunday when I packed I only brought a couple of inside sentiments none were really worthy of the grumpy snow bear. 

I am adding this to:

Jingle Belles ~~ All Bundled Up

U is for Upcycle at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers.

It's Saturday and time for a new challenge at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers, U is for Upcycle, April 22, 2020 is Earth day so in it's honour we present an upcycle challenge. It's nice to reuse, repurpose, an upcycle an item. For my card I used a Christmas card I had received maybe last year or the year, I save all my cards for verses, ideas and of course the usual challenges that ask you to upcycle.

This was the back of the card, I just thought the plaid was too great to throw away, the banner is covering up the company name. I used a snarky Dolly Mama Christmas stamp.

Finally the ordeal of doing my blog post is over, I'm not sure if it is me, Windows 10, Blogger or the Photo program but it has taken way too long to do this.  The last update of Windows `10 has messed more things up than it has fixed, (can you tell I detest Windows 10) 

Rant is over.

Thanks for visiting me today and head over to the Main Blog check out the rest of the upcycle projects that the design team had made (they are much more creative with their upcycle product)

It's Christmas Cheer at Christmas Kickstart Challenge (aka alcohol)

The Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers are Guest Elves at Christmas Kickstart Challenge.  All the elves are making there snarkiest alcohol laden projects and I am no exception. I scrolled through all my Bugaboo images on the computer and picked JJ for my card.

I colouored JJ up in sparkle and used an ancient spellbinders die set I have used for eons. The sentiment was found and was computer generated. 

Computer generated sentiment I found on "google"

Finished the inside with a holiday sentiment and when it was finished I found a better one, oh well.

Head over to the main Christmas Kickstart Blog to see what the rest of the "elves" have made.

I'm a Christmas Kickstart Elf for Challenge 29. 

Thanks for visiting today and lets keep making those Holiday cards 

C is for Cats

It's a new challenge at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers....C is for Cats and as you know cats are known to have  Cattitude and that might just translate to "Snarky".  I used a grumpy cat digital image from Bugaboo Stamps and fitted him/her out for a snarky Christmas.

Bugaboo Design image,  didn't pay attention to which 6 X 6 paper pad I used (had three I was leafing through) ribbon was on my table so added it. Sentiment computer generated.

Couldn't resist a close up of Grumpy Christmas Cat.

The Punchline 

Since the challenge is cats I'm entering this in:

Christmas Kickstart Challenge ~~ #10 S is for Snarky Christmas

I'm a day late with my post for guest designing with Christmas Kickstart along with the rest of the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers, I really thought it was next week, I guess I should NOT rely on my memory.  I had the Bugaboo Grumpy Christmas Cat all printed out waiting to find some time to squeeze it in to my schedule but Wednesday was my "free" day this week.

I love this grumpy cat from Bugaboo Designs, I had printed it a bit larger than usual so made it into a 5 1/4 inch square card. I flat attached it to the "lumberjack plaid" paper and popped the computer generated sentiment up.

Close up of the sentiment.

The snarky sentiment was found on "google" 

Not sure who will be the recipient of this card but I'm positive there are a lot of "bah humbugs" around.

Thanks for visiting today and don't forget to join the fun at Christmas Kickstart, head over and see what the rest of the "sisters" have made.
