 hello snarky stampers!

I'm thrilled to have been chosen as the sisterhood's Queen of Snark with this card! Queen gets to enjoy the absolute privilege of being guest designer for the next challenge.  Woo hoo! The theme for this challenge is L is for Layers.

I began by creating 3 base layers for my card: stencilled chipped sapphire distress oxide using Paper Rose Striped stencil, stamped the fish with peacock feathers distress oxide using Darkroom Door Under the Sea stamp set, and stencilled tumbled glass distress oxide using Paper Rose Small Drops. These panels were then cut to size and arranged on the card base. I die cut using Paper Rose Arrows die set from ink blended card many many arrows and arranged them onto a fourth layer, then trimmed and mounted that onto an ink blended card for the fifth layer.

Using MFT Cool Day I die cut the ice bergs, inked the edges and the details, then stamped and die cut the ice floe. The bear was stamped using Colorado Craft Company Sweater Bears stamp set and fussy cut. These were all mounted on foam squares. The sentiment from Tim Holtz small talk stickers was adhered onto ink blended card and mounted on foam squares. Whew!

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

 hello crafty stampers!

I'm playing along with the lovely sisters at snarky stampers where the theme this fortnight is Q is for Quirky. I'm taking my colour cue from the ever-fashionable Edna!

The background is ink blended with distress oxide inks, then the edges blended in a darker blue shade and subtle little snowflakes stamped around the top. The bears are stamped using Colorado Craft Company Sweater Bears stamp set, fussy cut and mounted on foam squares and the ice block is stamped from MFT Cool Day on ink blended card and fussy cut. The sentiment is a Tim Holtz Small Talk sticker, edged in ink and mounted on foam squares. The card panel is mounted on a dark blue card base.

Thanks for stopping by!
