The Abominable Snow Bear...

Oh come on. I would NEVER use a word like abominable to describe a BEAR. But I cleaned my office this weekend and found something on my desk that is extremely hilarious and I need to share it with you all.

I used to grade an essay test with some other teachers, and let me tell you - many of the essays were indeed abominable. There was a little board with excerpts of some of the most spectacular sentences, and here are a few:
"I believe that I have matured in abominable proportions since being hired for this position."

Mmm hmmm - your supervisor probably says the same thing. 

"We talked and distinguished between our seven senses." 

Wow - is one of those the spidey sense?

"One day this giant hand reached out of the sky and slapped me. The impression on my face is still apparent today."

Are you sure that wasn't your momma?

Thought you'd enjoy a laugh in the face of an impending Monday. :)

But since it's still Sunday, I'm still on time for today's Featured Stamper Challenge on Splitcoast. The Featured Stamper today is Korin Sutherland, the owner of Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps - our newest Member Company! She is a giant sweetie head, and I adore her. I promise, Korin, it's NOT just because you show me pictures of your kittens!! She is sweet and fun and full of grace, so it was a joy to create a card in her honor today.

The Featured Stamper challenge lets you peruse a gallery - this is Korin's gallery - and choose one of the cards to CASE. I chose this sweet, sweet little bear card for my tribute:

I loved the colors, and the white space, and the simplicity. Did I say I loved the colors?

I busted out my new Pool Party ruffled ribbon for the occasion, some matching Domestic Goddess DSP, the polar bear from Zoo Review, white twine, It's Your Day and some Pool Party Ink.

Now that is no abominable bear.

I hope you had a great weekend and are ready for your week! You should clean your desk too, you know - Virtual Stamp Night is next weekend! Squee! :) I'm hosting a challenge too, so it would be really abominable if you didn't play along :).

Loveyameanitbye.

  1. Ooh! I love the "nolvahse" look of this - haha spam! - but really, with it being so hot outside today, it cools me off because it is a COOL card!

  2. What a cool aura that polar bear has... Great color combo... And let me be the first to say "Happy Birthday." (Hey, if it's on Facebook, it's gonna get out...hee hee.) Hope it's happy!
