Are you ready for a new Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers challenge? Traditionally in October, the sistahs acknowledge Breast Cancer Awareness Month with a Pink Halloween challenge, but just to be snarky, we're breaking with that and saying that P is for EVERYTHING PINK! Some people are big fans of pink, me... not so much. But here I am, rising to the challenge with a Christmas card!
I was actually halfway through another card when this one popped into my head. I cut some snowflake masks with dies, arranged them on my card panel, and blended two shades of distress ink over them. Since the thought of snow can drive one to drink :D, I thought my sentiment worked.
The main reason I chose a holiday theme for my card... Jingle Belles is NOT messing with tradition and their annual Pink Christmas challenge is on now.
We have a retired sister returning as this week's Queen of Snark and guest designer... Jane! She and my teammates have swathed the Snarky blog in shades of pink - go take a look and then join us!
Supplies: Neenah white & Memory Box Berry Red cardstock, Riley & Co Weather Outside is Frightful stamp, Versamark, Memento Rose Bud & spun sugar & picked raspberry distress ink, Wow clear gloss embossing powder, Sizzix/Tim Holtz mini paper snowflakes & MFT blueprints 24 stitched rectangle dies
I just l9ove this card, Lindsey! I nay have to invest in that sentiment! Jo x
