The Joke is on...............at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers

J is for Joke at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers for this fortnight, I'm a day late getting my card done, there were many roadblocks along the way, and it didn't help when I left my memento ink pad at home this weekend, fortunately I had a waterbased marker in my bag.  It took me a long while to come up with a "joke" but here it is.

I finally had a chance to use my Tim Holtz Hipsters again, due to not knowing if alcohol markers and the waterbased black marker would work together I made it in shades of grey and black.

Thanks for stopping by today and hope you get your "joke" on and join us at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers. Don't forget to check out the rest of the design team offerings.

M is for Mink......

M is for Mink is the challenge at the Sisterhood of Snarky stampers  which translates to Furry Critters!!! We want to see project with animals that have FUR.  I am sure you thought I would use a house mouse but surprise I didn't!!! (it was a thought) But since I acquired Stampers Anonymous Hipsters I just had to use one of them.

I'm so happy to be able to take pictures at the lake they look much more interesting than a plain background. I had to go to the break wall as the sun wasn't in the right place to take it on the deck. 

Not much to say about the card except I darkened the glasses and put wink of stella on his eyes.

As you see I used an Avery label maker for the sentiment, I bought it Saturday at a yardsale here is what came with it.

three sizes, 1/4" 1/2" and 3/8" along with lots of label cartridges. Now all I have to figure out is how to change from one to another. It came with the box all for $1.00.....SCORE!!!

Up Yer Kilt!!!

Well we can never say there are boring challenges at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers  ~~ challenge #89 is U is for Up Yer Kilt. We want to see plaid on your card.  I use plaid a lot but usually for Christmas cards so I had to stretch my mind on this one.  I was pleased to acquire TH hipster stamps of course these stamps as well as the crazy birds are WAY out of my crafting technique but I used that age old spot on the computer called Google and found some inspiration.

I always think when in doubt Black and White is always vogue. .
