snarky ATCs

 hello stampers!

The awesome sisters at snarkystampers have put out their latest challenge which is #207 A is for ATC. I do like the idea of smaller card space and I certainly have lots of little stamps so it's a win-win for me! lol


I couldn’t resist making more than one - they are soooo cute. I think I could have ended up with a whole box if I’d kept going! And of course I had to make it a red-back spider - a morning's gardening here is not complete without coming across at least one of those little buggers!

I decided to showcase little blueprint stamps from Tim Holtz - bunny and web. For bunny, the background had Altenew Color Block Triangle stencil inked with salvaged patina distress oxide ink, dried then Scrapmatts 5080 stencil inked along the side. Kaisercraft Script stamp and several small random stamps were also stamped in the same colours and water splatters were added. For web, the background was an offcut from a gel print, inked over the top with Scrapmatts 5080 stencil. 

Bunny and web were stamped in black on a scrap of card and clear heat embossed, then watercolored. They were cut into a tight rectangle, edges inked and adhered to the card panel. The Tim Holtz small talk sticker sentiments were edged in ink and adhered. The cards were then mounted onto black card base 3.5” x 2.5” in size. Here’s closeups of each card.

best friends

 hello lovely stampers!

Today I have been playing along with just us girls challenge word week #618: friends.

I decided to go full Tim Holtz with this one and used one of my favourite sentiments.

The background is ink blended using distress oxide inks, then stamped with Darkroom Door Flourish texture stamp, and various little stamps from unknown sets that I just keep separately. The heart stamp was stamped and heat embossed using Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Happy Everything Blueprints and the sentiment is a Tim Holtz Small Talk sticker, edged in ink and popped up on foam.

Thanks for stopping by!
