Believe In Magic And Fairies

 Hello Stampes. Vicky here today with a magical fairy.

Do you believe in magic and fairies? Long ago, it was said that fairies could be found wherever imagination thrived. This card features a beautiful fairy, captured in a rare, mesmerizing instant. There is power in her magic, a sense that she belongs to a world just out of reach. Perhaps she’s not truly captured at all—perhaps she’s simply allowing herself to be seen.

I started with a dark blue card.

I used the Bowl & Cork without the cork, upside down. I did some shading with a blue Copic marker.

I stamped the saying, Believe In Magic with VersaFine.

I added the Dancing Fairy in the bowl. I colored her wings with blue and yellow Copic markers.

The Star Swirl was added at the tip of her fingers. I used yellow and blue markers and glitter glue.

Stamps Used:

Bowl

Saying

Star Swirl

Dancing Fairy

Believe in magic!

When Die Cuts Meet Stamps Magic Happens

  Hi Everyone, Dalis HERE!

Sometimes stamps are the perfect way to spruce up a die cut. I got this balloon cover plate as a gift from a friend, and I LOVE it… but how many times can I really use patterned paper for the balloons before it starts feeling a little “been there, done that”?
Today I switched it up and stamped my own balloon designs instead! Now I can make them elegant, bold, or totally custom, depending on who the card is for.
My sister’s birthday is coming up, and even though pink is definitely not her favorite color, I know she’s going to love this card because it’s unique… just like she is. 
I used the Single Bloom stamp from Crackerbox Stamps to give the balloons a more elevated, almost grand feel, and finished it off with my favorite Birthday sentiment.

Supply List:

Single Bloom

Birthday 1

Additional Supplies: Brown Ink, Balloon Coverplate, pearls, blue ink, cloud stencil, and blender brush.

Until next time— Stay colorful, stay crafty! -- Dalis

The Best Things In Life

I started with a teal card base. I stamped the Best Things sentiment stamp on the same teal paper and cut around the words. I added a background layer with pattern paper and then attached three fishtail banners on top. Next I stamped and colored the Lady Yelling stamp and cut her out leaving a slight white border. I cut out a stitched circle from vellum paper and glued the image on top of it. Thanks so much for stopping by.

Since it's finally Spring, the weather is perfect for going fishing. The sun is shining, the birds are singing, and the fish are biting. Here is a boy, all geared up and ready to catch some fish. He's got his rod, reel, and bait, and is excited to reel in a big one.

The base card is black. I stamped Boy Going Fishing on the lower left.

Cattails & Grass are stamped on the bottom.

I used markers to make the path out to the water, and the water.

The horizon was sponged.

Stamps Used:

Boy Going Fishing

Enjoy the sunshine of Spring!

Spring is in the air!

                     Hello, Janet here with a s spring card. The yellow flowers are blowing in the air.

I stamped the flowers with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink on 3 small squares of cardstock. They are colored with copic markers and then layered onto slightly larger black cardstock squares. They are randomly placed on a 3 x 4 1/2 piece of white cardstock. Layer that on a slightly larger piece of black cardstock. Set that aside. Cut another piece of black to cover the front of the card. I layered a smaller piece of yellow-and-white striped paper on top of that. Then attach the top part at an angle to the card. I tied a black and white checked bow and added a few black embellishments. Inside, I stamped the Friends Are Like Flowers verse with VersaFine Clair Nocturne Ink.

Happy Mother's Day!

They are colored with Copic markers. I added a piece of purple, designed paper to the bottom to match the wave. A ribbon divides the two papers. That is all layered onto a light purple embossed cardstock. Attached that to the white card. Happy Mother's Day is stamped with VersaFine Nocturne Ink and die cut.

Stenciled and Embossed Floral Sympathy Card

Hello, friends!  Toni here, and I'm so very excited about the 25% off sale.  Be sure to check it out and stock up on your favorite cling, summer, flower and Mother's Day stamps!

For my sale-inspired card, I used the Hydrangea Lg image but rather than coloring it up, I created my own stencil and sponged it.

I decided to make it into a sympathy card, keeping the colors muted with additional stenciling.

To finish up, I embossed the Love, Joy, Friendship sentiment on vellum using Ranger Copper embossing powder.

I Love You Beary Much Mom

I saw a video on YouTube for a Center Step card, so I thought I would give it a try. Once it was cut and scored, I added some pattern paper to each panel. I stamped the Bear With Heart stamp on a textured tan piece of cardstock and colored it using alcohol markers. I die cut two M's and colored them with the same colors I used for the heart. I stamped two sentiments from the Mother stamp set and added those to the center panel. Thanks so much for stopping by and have a great day.

Low Key Spring, WHAT?!?!?

   Hi Everyone, Dalis HERE!

Chocolate is my first love… snarky, sassy stamps are a very close second. So when I spotted the Bunny Butt & Ear stamp, I went from giggling to “add to cart” in record time. No hesitation. No regrets. 

I colored the bunnies like classic chocolate treats because obviously… priorities. From there, the card basically made itself, just a simple sketch paired with some playful spring papers. Light, cheerful, and just the right amount of sass.
The sentiment brings it all together, a little nod to gardens and friendships, because this one is heading straight to my sweet friend Sylvia.

Supply List:
Bunny Butt & Ear

Additional Supplies: Pattern paper, ribbon, stapler, and blender brush.

Love, Peace. And Harmony

 Hi everyone, Monica here, welcome back to Crackerbox's blog.

I am sharing something I could really use right now: Love, Peace, and most of all Harmony.

Harmony was stamped in the center of the card and colored.

I made a mask and put it over her.

The clouds were made in the background.

I used the Birdhouse And Flowers for the background twice.

I masked the birdhouse so it didn't stamp on the card.

Love, Peace And Harmony was stamped last.

Stamps Used:

Love, Peace, Harmony

Birdhouse And Flowers

Products Used:

Tombow Glue

Memento Black Ink

I wish all of you love, peace, and harmony.
