So Suzy Stamps Snarky Christmas Blog Hop


Are you ready for something different? Welcome to the So Suzy Stamps Snarky Blog Hop where funny and humorous Christmas cards take over! 
I am hopping along with Justine's 12 Days of Christmas Series. If you haven’t checked it out yet, click here: Justine has been busy creating a dozen Christmas Card video tutorials to inspire you this holiday, and best of all there are prizes to be won every day. 
Let's see what I create for this hop: I'm not a super-sarcastic person, but I love irony and make people smile. When I saw this funny hyena from "The Lion King" as well as this snarky sentiment, I knew they would be perfect together.


Siete pronti per qualcosa di diverso? Per cominciare questo mese di novità, vi do il benvenuto all'Irreverente Blog Hop di So Suzy Stamps, dove troverete un sacco di card natalizie ricche di humour e divertimento.
L'evento, a cui partecipo anch'io con questo post, è stato organizzato da Justine e fa parte del suo Justine's 12 Days of Christmas Series. Se non l'avete ancora visto, date un'occhiata qui: Justine sta continuando a creare dozzine di tutorial per card natalizie, così da darvi ispirazione... e ci sono anche premi giornalieri!
Vediamo cosa ho creato io per questa hop: non sono una persona particolarmente sarcastica, ma amo avere la battuta pronta e far sorridere le persone. Quando ho visto questa simpatica iena da "Il Re Leone" nonché questo ironico augurio, ho subito capito che avrebbero lavorato benissimo insieme.


First I stamped the hyena with Memento Black, fussy cut and coloured it with promakers. I also stamped a little Santa hat that I had in my stash and that fits perfectly. I picked a red tiny bell too.

Prima di tutto ho timbrato la iena con del Memento, ritagliandola e colorandola con i promarkers. Ho timbrato anche un piccolo cappellino di Natale che si adattava alla perfezione. Ho anche preso un piccolo sonaglino rosso.


Next I did my own background with the embossing resists technique: I stamped the medium and the large snowflakes from So Suzy Stamps with some Versamark ink, then I heat embossed in white. At this point I grabbed a bunch of Distress Inks (Peacock Feathers, Salty Ocean, Chipped Sapphire and Black Soot), I blended them out and I sprinkled some water drops on top.

Poi ho creato il mio sfondo con la tecnica dell'embossing resists: ho timbrato i fiocchi di neve (medium e large) di So Suzy Stamps con del Versamark, embossandoli in bianco. A questo punto ho scelto una serie di Distress Inks (Peacock Feathers, Salty Ocean, Chipped Sapphire and Black Soot) e li ho sfumati dal più chiaro al più scuro, spruzzando dell'acqua alla fine.


Finally I die cut an hill from white cardstock and I stamped the first part of the snarky sentiment. I glued down all the pieces and I added some twine all around the neck of the hyena.

Infine ho fustellato una collina da del cartoncino bianco, dove ho timbrato la prima parte della scritta. Ho incollato tutte le varie parti e ho aggiunto del twine intorno al collo della iena.


I popped up the funny animal with a bit of foam tape. The bell make it even more strange!
I stamped the second part of the sentiment inside, adding a part of the Merry Christmas brush sentiment:

Ho dato tridimensionalità al bizzarro animale con un poco di nastro gommato. Il sonaglino lo rende ancora più strano! Ho timbrato la seconda parte della scritta all'interno, aggiungendo un pezzo dell'augurio Merry Christmas brush:
