The House That Stamps Built: Funny or Snarky

 It's time for another Wednesday challenge at The House That Stamps Built. This
weeks theme is funny or snarky.

I do not normally do funny or snarky cards, this is about as close as
I get:
 
 
 I had bought a new pad of fun paper by Honey Bee and thought this
sheet made a perfect background for Repeat Impressions: Wine for Two
and 9511-H, Chocolate Alone gold embossed on vellum and layered on
the patterned paper.  A couple brads to match my card stock, isn't 
it pretty!

Join the fun and you might be the lucky winner of the monthly drawing
 for the  $25 Repeat Impression's  gift certificate. You don't have
 to use Repeat Impression stamps but an extra chance if you do.  
Drawing is the first Wednesday every month.

Pinwheel tower card

 


 
I made another pinwheel tower card, so fun to make and much easier than  they look.
Its also fun to have so many areas to decorate.  I used a pattern paper pack from
Stamp In Up, a stencil from Echo Park, Amuse dies and a punch in my stash.
Excited for my grand daughters party today!

The House That Stamps Built: Treat Holder

 Time for another challenge at The House That Stamps Built! This week Wendy is
looking for No tricks, just treats.  A Halloween card or treat holder for any occasion.

My treat holders:
 


I went with some little Christmas treat holders that I could give out randomly
to various people as a little thank you (bank tellers, grocery clerks etc) that I
do not normally thank. This is a 6x6 folded double sided paper.  I will fill
these with Christmas candies.

Repeat Impression Stamps:

Other supplies:
Snowflake punch
Twine from my stash
Scraps of colored card stock, die cut

 for the  $25 Repeat Impression's  gift certificate. You don't have
 to use Repeat Impression stamps but an extra chance if you do.

Blogs I Follow Help

 Several blogs I follow have disappeared from my list on my sidebar and I can
 not reenter them.  Has this happened to anyone else and does anyone have 
a solution?

The House That Stamps Built: Feature a Creature

This is my second post for today, please scroll down for my first post.
 
 It's Wednesday, time for another challenge at Repeat Impressions, this week
we would like to see a creature on your card, scrap book page, journal
page etc.


I've not inked this sweet dog up for a bit and thought he would be good for 
this week and for a special need.  I used Repeat Impressions Golden Retriever
(isn't he cute) and two of the squares from Pets Quartet.  The dog is
stamped on the inside.  This card was a bit of a challenge, but accomplished
the idea I had in my mind.

JDS-Santa's Jalopy

 Jan's Digital Stamps is sharing inspiration on two of her new designs this week.


 This is Santa's Jalopy from Jan's Digi Stamps. I made a simple gatefold card
using some patterned paper from my stash, 
coloring the image with Copics, die cutting the image and sentiments. I
thought this made a cute Christmas card.
 
Check out what some of my team mates have made here.
