Telling it Like It Is!

 
     Here is hoping that the word A$$ does not offend anyone.  I have been seeing these cute alligators all over Pinterest, and just had to give one a try!

     The alligator is created with the banner punch from SU!  I also used their small circle punches for his eyes.  This is one of those sentiments that I have had for years, and you have to admit, we all have friends that could use this reminder!  Yes, I altered it into dollar signs.  It is unmounted, so I am clueless to maker.  I used a scrap from my stash for the bottom half.  I sponged to create my sky and used Soft Sky ink from SU!.  The cattails are from Stampscapes, and the rocks and grass are from Stamps by Judith.

     Since the sentiment has been in my lost bucket of rubber for so many years, I thought it was fitting to enter this over at the SOSS Challenge #2 which is U is for Unused. 

     However did it get to be Thursday, already?  Whatever you are up to, enjoy!  Just think, we get to lose an hour this weekend by changing the clocks, but that extra daylight is going to be heavenly!

Not offended at all. This is just precious and I really do love it. Is it Thursday already? I hadn't noticed. LOL I do hope you have a good weekend coming up. Our temps are suppose to hit almost 50, we'll see about that.

Not offended one bit because I'm usually up to my a$$ in alligators all the time!
Cute little guy and I've never seen one done with punches before so this is a real treat for me. He's adorable and love the card - and of course the sentiment too!

This is such a fun card, and we all have an a$$ so why would anyone be offended? LOL You should enter this into the sisterhood of snarky stampers with that funny sentiment!

This is one of my husb's favourite quotes! Perfect with this fun alligator, and your backdrop with the sponged sky and cattails is gorgeous! So glad you joined us for the U is for Unused challenge at the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers.
