show us your snark!

this week's challenge at shopping our stash (SOS213) is extra special, because it's a cross-over event with the lovely and irreverent sisterhood of snarky stampers (SOSS)* with whom our design team shares a few members. so OF COURSE we want to see your snarkiest, sassiest, silliest, most sarcastic stamps and sentiments... feel free to get as wild as you want!

patterned paper: bam pop (birds, speech bubbles, scallops) basic grey (circles + blue) ki memories (numerals); labels: dymo: ink: colorbox; adhesives: elmers brand gluetape, 3m foam tape, sewing machine 

to me the funniest part of this is that the bigger bird is agreeing with the little bird's snark. i don't know why that cracks me up, but it does, so i'm just going with it. possibly nobody else will find it remotely amusing, not even my brother, whose birthday card this is going to be. something i honestly didn't realize until right now when i uploaded the photo onto my blog, is that i subconsciously used all the colors from our JINGLE BELLES "cookies for santa" inspiration picture again! but really, it was based on the fact that the ancient bam pop birds and speech bubbles happen to be aqua and red, so it just made sense.

and now why not hop over to SOS or SOSS and see all the other gorgeous, hilarious, awesome, snark-filled cards that have been made especially to inspire ♥YOU♥ to join us!

*when SOS teams up with SOSS you get SSOOSSS, which sounds like the noise my garden hose was making last week when it hadn't been shut off properly. unless you have one of those fancy keyboards that does footnote or exponential numbering; then it'd be S2 O2 S-to-the-power-of-3 which i'm pretty sure is one of the ingredients in plutonium. so just *be careful* you guys, that's all i'm sayin'... :) :) :)

  5. Ha! I noticed the colors right off the bat. I love that crimson and teal color scheme going on here. And also, I hate you a little bit in my heart because I now have B-B-B-Bird Bird Bird, Bird is the Word stuck in my head. ;)

  7. Word! Love it Lauren and the colour palette works perfectly with your fun birds, loving the funky numbers behind them and the groovy circles around the edge. Think I'm mixing my decades in my comment here! And now that I've read Becca's comment, I have that song stuck in my head, thanks alot Becca!! (and love your footnote, you are too hilarious Miss Lauren, kaboom!!)
