A Tiny Craft (ATC) Challenge ~~ September

 How can it be the 15th of September already? Wasn't labour day just a few days ago? Fall has been beautiful but sadly by the time the October challenge arrives I will have closed the cottage and all my time can be spent in my craft space.  My new to me desk i
working out great, it needs organizing but when I make a card I put it on the top shelf (keeps it safe from "paws")  Since it is the 15th of the month it's a new challenge at A Tiny Craft (ATC) Challenge and the theme is SNARKY!!  I paired stamps from Riley & Company with Chris's sentiments from Stamplorations, added cardstock layers an embellishment and voila they are done.


Since these are retro stamps I went totally retro with Black and White. The "enamel" dots are the last of my homemade black ones. layered the images on black then on a white base added the sentiment and called them done. 

Here is the close up of the individual ATCs.


This is Coffee Lady


This stamp is called Coffee Carl


This Retro stamp is Wondering Midge 


Lastly this one is called Ethel

There are many many more Retro Funny bone stamps in their store. 

Thanks for stopping by today and check out the main blog to see what the rest of the design team have made.

S is for Sister Chris!!!

 


Edna is very proud of our Sister Chris she is a celebrity!!
Chris is a designer of not one but two sets of snarky stamps at STAMPlorations so the rest of the sisters are honouring her by showing off some of her Snarky Sentiments. Here is my tribute.


Of course when thinking snarky the first thing that comes to mind is Art Impressions, and a friend sent me a cute set a while ago and I used one of the images on the card 2 weeks ago, well the set was still out and I realized it paired perfectly with one of the Chris Dring Designs stamps from STAMPlorations. I saw the  current Tuesday Morning Sketch and it was perfect for my image although putting that square off-set was almost a deal breaker, it's been a while since I've played along with them.


Closer look at the super cute image.


And a closer look at the sentiment.
