Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps

Welcome back snarky card loving friends!

I love a good snarky card and so do my close girlfriends. So of course I just loved these new stamps from this week's release. I paired them with Phil the Minion of course, because he can say anything and get away with it. Here are all of the details.

Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps Used:

The Older You Get Banana Minion Phil

Other Products Used:

Cardstock- White, Brown

First I created a blended background with all the tones of a bananas life in Distress Oxide Inks using a blending tool. Then with Wild Honey I stencilled on the diamond pattern onto the background as well as stamped bananas around the border of the card.

Add the sentiment to the middle of the card using an embossing pad and black embossing powder.

Stamp the banana and the minion image onto white cardstock using black ink. Then add colour to the images using Chameleon Pens. Fussy cut them out and add to the card using foam squares. Mat the card front in brown cardstock and then add to the white cardstock card base.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Hello crafty friends, Martha Lucia with you because the celebration is here! This is a fabulous month to Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps and I am so honored to stay here because I have been designer for this brand during last 5 years.

Today's project is a celebration card. I decided to use the Beautiful Amazing Friend stamp.

I created the background using a Balloon stencil with two different colors of ink. I applied Party Dress, Catherine Pooler Ink for the balloons and London Fog Memento Ink for the lower part of the ballons.

In a separate piece of white card stock, I stamped the Beautiful Amazing Friend stamp using VersaFine Clair Charming Pink and Clear Embossing Powder.

I made a mat for this stamped piece using a Zig Zag Stitched Rectangle.

Thank you for stopping by and remember that April is the month of Celebrations and of course prizes and promotions!!!

Happy shopping!!!

3. I used some distress ink to color the layer, I then die cut the center,

4. I put a piece of acetate in the back of the layer, added some foam tape and added the 3mm sequins onto the sequin and added another sheet of paper with the glitter paper to the back, and added this to the base of the card,

5. I stamped the swans and added some stickles to give the swans some dimension and added them to the card,

6. I stamped the sentiment "Birthday 7" and die cut it with a circle and added it to my card.

Hello friends!! Happy end of March! This has been a crazy month around the WORLD, and I hope this finds you safe and well amidst all the craziness... This is Shanna here today from Caffeinated Craftiness, showing you another fun card using Crackerbox and Suzy Stamps! I played around with a couple stamps for this card, and couldn't be happier with the outcome! Snarky stamps speak to my soul, and this one just makes me giggle!

I used:
Pill Bottle and Pills set
Good News Bad News

I thought about coloring the pill bottles, but decided to channel my inner grandma's medicine cabinet and paper piece them using solid orange cardstock for the bottle. I
layered a few of them and scattered some pills at the bases to complete my "scene"

The fun and snarky sentiment was added using black ink from Versafine Clair--Nocturne. I kept it simple and added the sentiment directly to my card base.

My background was ink blended using a Blending Buddy brush and some Inkon3 Yellow ink. Love the vibrant contrast of the the yellow and orange! I mounted my card panel onto an orange card base, and the card was complete!

What is your favorite stamping technique?? Do you like to paper piece, or prefer to color?? Let me know below in the comments :)

Also!! Check out this month's Crackerbox and Suzy Stamps SPECIAL!!

Hi Everybody,

Some of the products I have used have been provided to me from various companies I design for. Affiliate links may be used in the links provided below.

I just felt like making another Easter card - no too much longer anymore, but thankfully I don't need as many for Easter as I need for Christmas.....

I love that chicken named Henrietta from Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps. She looks like she already bred too many chicks in her life.....

I colored her with markers. Added some stitched die cuts. The paper is ancient and from my stash. Added the Happy Easter sentiment.

March - DIE CUT

Hello crafty friends,

It's Melinda today and I am happy to share this very pretty card I created.

The finished card size is a 5.5 x 5.5 square. It is a top folding card. The base is white cardstock.

Here's a closer look at the beautiful Monarch Butterfly stamp. I colored it with some soft pink Copic Markers and then some Spectrum Noir sparkle. You really can't see the sparkle in the photo. You can also see the background mat. I used the Flower Flourish stamp to create the background imagery.

Here's a closer look at the pretty Daisy Bunch stamp. I colored the daisies with some yellow and then some red orange. I added some stickles to the centers for a little extra pizzazz.

Here's a closer look at the Live Simply pretty sentiment. I stamped it onto the white square mat next to the daisies. I mounted that onto the pink scallop stitched square mat. I added some foam tape underneath and mounted it onto the background mat.

This shot shows the pretty Olesya's Butterfly stamp. I colored it in shades of yellow and then added a little Spectrum Noir sparkle but it doesn't show up on the photo. You can also see some of the background that I created with the Flower Flourish stamp. You can also see the stitching on the Scalloped square pink mat. I created the mat and cut it out with my electronic die cut machine.

SUPPLIES USED

Monarch Butterfly

Olesya's Butterfly

Live Simply Sentiment

Daisy Bunch

Flower Flourish (For Background)

Be sure to head over to the store and pick your stamps up. They have such a fantastic selection. Be sure to visit often to see what the rest of the designers are creating. You will find some great inspiration! Until the next time, have a wonderfully crafty day!

Hello there, Martha Lucia here featuring the Grateful for Crazy snarky stamp. This month I have been working with die cuts and snarky stamps and today's card is another of my favorites.

This is a very easy card to make and recreate. I used a Mandala Lace Background to add more interest to the background and stamped my Grateful for Crazy sentiment over a negative part that was a leftover from a previous project. I stamped it with VersaFine Onix.

To finalize the card, I just pasted over the sentiment some Butterfly Frame from Spellbinders. My main idea is give the focus to this fabulous snarky sentiment, Grateful for Crazy.

You have a few days to take advantage of this month promotion of Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps because it couldn't be better. The categories Easter, Snarky, Sweet Sentiments and Get Well are 20% OFF. Just click over each of these and enjoy your shopping!

See you soon and don't believe that I am not a good person. This month I just was a little snarky and .... I love it!
