A Little Stinky Piercing

Its TCP Tuesday... on Wednesday!

I'm a day late to the game, but today I've got a sample for this week's TCP Tuesday challenge, hostessed by Amy. She's challenged us to put that paper piercer to work this week.

I'll admit, I tend to use mine to open back up a sealed bottle of Diamond Glaze, or to apply glue dots to my project, or to poke little paper pieced pieces into place, or to roll paper upon for my little curlie-queues that I like to make for flowers. They're also handy for faux stitching (but lately I tend to just zipity zap things right through my machine...)

As I was sifting through my stamp sets, and deciding which one I'd use for piercing I ran across Happy Camper, and this sweet little skunk. And I laughed... and then I reached for my piercer.

"Just Sitting Here Stinking....."

Hope its not too crass, this little skunkie sitting in a foul smelling little cloud, but really, it is cracking me up!! I guess I've been on my own with small boys for too long eh? Their "boy humor" is rubbing off. I shared this card with them this morning, and yes, they cracked up!

This swirl pattern is from "Kitty Christmas" I stamped it to velum, then placed that over my paper and used it as a piercing guide.

I hope you'll all play along with us this week, please add your creation to the Guestbook on Alma's blog found HERE!

Have a great day!
