Day 4 of 31 Days of Halloween

Here is the last of my Halloween Crazy Birds.  I've saved my favorite for last, my Zombird.  I really like that dangling rotting eyeball. I hope you have enjoyed my birds. If you are here for Smeared Ink's 31 Days Days of Halloween, my name is Lee and you can continue your hopping through the sidebar.  Thanks for stopping by!

Edna says O is for One!

It's that time again!  Time for the next challenge at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers.  Edna challenges you to use one color, making a monochrome card.  

Here is what I put together for this challenge.  I found a piece of light blue cardstock that matched Tumbled Glass Distress ink.  The card stock became my foundation for the card.  I then used the Tim Holtz Sizzx die and embossing folder to make this dragonfly.  May I insert my pet peeve here?  Of course I may.  It's my blog.  This die and embossing folder set does not match.  The embossing folder has the antennae of the dragon fly while the die does not.  Even though I had the die, I still wound up fussy cutting the embossed dragonfly so it could have antennae!

Rant over.

I used Tumbled Glass and Broken China Distress inks on the dragonfly and its shadow.  Then I found the piece of blue fiber in my ribbon stash.  I had just enough fiber to edge the card with.  It's only taken me seven years to use that fiber up!  

Show us your one color card.  You have two weeks to complete this mission if you choose to accept it.  Link up your entry here.  And please, stop by and visit my fellow snarky stamping sisters to see what they have put together for this challenge.

B is for Buttons or Brads

It's time for challenge number 12 at the Snarky Sisterhood.  We want to see your buttons or brads.  Edna prefers Brads.  I think she has pretty good taste!

I went with the brad option myself.  

The image is from Rubber Dance, which I cut apart so I could reattach the limbs with brads.  Both backgrounds are made with Tim Holtz products.  I have used a layering stencil, Distress Paint and Distress Ink on this card.

Please check out what my Snarky Sisters have made for this challenge.  Thanks for stopping by.  If you want to be the Queen of Snark, you have until July 25 at 2355 PDT to enter your project.
