I’m thrilled to be taking part today in the 2017 Snarktoberfest blog hop. You should have arrived here from the Strawberry Jude Stamps blog. If not, don’t worry. I’ll have a list with links to all the participants in the blog hop at the end of this post. Be sure to hop along with us to not only see all the awesome snarky cards we’ve all created, but for a chance to win some awesome prizes from the hop sponsors.
For my card, I used this amazing Days Like This stamp set from Strawberry Jude Stamps, one of the hop sponsors. I stamped it on a piece of Neenah Solar White cardstock using Jet Black ink from Lawn Fawn. I then colored the image in using a variety of Copic markers. I then created the floor and background wall, also using Copic markers.
To complete the focal panel, I stamped two of the sentiments from the same stamp set using the Jet Black ink. I matted the focal panel using a piece of Cherry Cobbler cardstock from Stampin’ Up. I adhered the matted panel to a tent fold card base from Catherine Pooler Designs and that completed the card.
As I mentioned earlier, we have five amazing sponsors for this blog hop. Each of them have provided a prize for the hop, so be sure to visit all the participating blogs and leave a comment on each one. Everyone who leaves a comment on each blog by 9pm PT on October 5, 2017 will be entered to win one. Here’s the list of prizes up for grabs:
