Shacks Papercrafts

My friends all love the snarky and sassy sentiments so I’m trying to make a few of them. This was primarily for the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers L is for Lindsey challenge this week. I’m also entering it in the Cardz 4 Galz gingham/plaid challenge, the It’s all about me challenge on the Cut It Up challenge blog, and the Simon Says Stamp stencil challenge.

This sentiment seriously cracks me up … I decided to add it to an otherwise elegant card just for giggles 😉 This is officially my very first card using my hot foiling machine and a hot foil cover plate and matching stencils from Pinkfresh Studios 💙 The photo doesn’t do it justice. This is perfect for the Just Us Girls challenge to use a stencil.

Midnight isn’t a good time to decide to start colouring and it’s very rushed – but I’m happy with the overall layout for this weeks My Favorite Things sketch challenge. I’m also entering it for the As You Like It challenge – I chose a koala because it was my first animal encounter of a cuddly nature in Australia, and I had a stuffed koala toy growing up.

This card evolved gradually in my brain and it’s a different twist for me for the TGIF sketch challenge. I’m so freaking happy with this one! As a Stephen King fan for decades, it was a fun one to come up with!

I’m also entering this for this week’s Just Add Ink challenge.

A last minute decision to join the sketch challenge this week over at Try Stampin on Tuesday.

I made this card to enter for two challenges – a sketch design by Sketch Saturday, and a colour challenge by TGIF Challenges. Then I realised it also works for this week’s Tic Tac Toe challenge, the Make the Cards challenge – win/win! 😀

I have to say I always loved visiting my old family home to see my parents – almost every visit saw an encounter with a monarch butterfly flitting around the garden … and my heart lifted every single time. I just love to see them.

The first card is for this week’s sketch challenge at CAS Colours and Sketches.

The second card is for the Less is More CAS challenge. It’s also being entered for the Just Us Girls challenge too.

I combined a bit of masking, ink blending, and a tiny touch of copic colouring for this nautical card. Just in time to enter it for the Addicted to CAS nautical challenge. I’m also entering it in the Simon Says Stamp Monday happy birthday challenge.
