Stamp Image For 3D Floral Card

 


Hi everyone today I am here sharing a fun 3D floral card that is perfect for any occasion 🥰 I simply stamped the flowers and fussy cut them out.  Once I was done I cupped the petals so that would pop off the page for an 3d look.  

Next I stamped and cut 3 leaves using green ink and cupped them as well and then aligned them along the lower half of the card.  Next I used some foam tape to give certain flowers added height so it has more dimension.  Love how it came out ❤️

Miss Daisy  Stamp set

I knew when I saw the new Daisy set that she would need to meet her sisters! BerniceBridgette, and Bella all joined the party to create my background for this card! I used my MISTI stamp positioner and black ink and stamped each cow multiple times until I had filled the panel.  Daisy was stamped in the same black ink and then die cut. I added a pop of color using Copic markers for the Glasses and a few grays for shadows. 

I am absolutely in love with this card!! Thank you so much for dropping by, I will be back soon with another Crackerbox Stamps surprise!

Watercolored Butterfly Birthday Card

Hello, friends! Toni here with you. Today I'm sharing a watercolored and gold embossed birthday card in celebration of warmer weather. 


I embossed a black card front with the Fancy Butterfly and Birthday 1 rubber stamps and gold embossing powder.  Did I remember to use anti-static powder?  No, I did not.  LOL.


I used watercolor paint with shimmer which really pops on the black and shows off the amazing detail on the butterfly.  I used a striped gold washi on the card sides for added interest too.

Sheetload of Father's Day Cards | 12 Sketches, 24 Cards Series

Hello and welcome!  This is Shanna today with the next installment in my 12 Sketches | 24 Cards series!  This is a series in which I select a card sketch off the internet and create TWO (well-at least two!) versions of it using Crackerbox Stamps! If this is your first time reading about this--be sure to read all the way to the end for a recap of the series so far!  

*Warning* I might have gotten a bit carried away this month, and the following post is very photo-heavy!!

This month's sketch was sourced from a YouTube creator named CraftyAl.  She creates a monthly sketch that utilizes 12x12 paper to mass produce a set of cards!  I chose to use the April 2024 sketch to play along with my challenge this month! I was inspired to use the sketch and pair it with the brand new Father clear polymer stamp set--using the majority of the seed to create a fun set of cards!

The way the sketch is designed makes it create 8 cards--which was a perfect way to showcase a new sentiment stamp set!  I loved going through my collection and pulling out stamps to match the sentiments!  I grabbed stamps I haven't used in a while and was so happy to pull back out again.  I kept the techniques simple with these--a little heat embossing and some tone on tone stamping.  

Here are some of my tips when mass producing cards:

  • Pick a color way--that means if you are using pattern paper, stick within those colors and have a stack nearby of inks and solid papers to choose from when designing the card.
  • Don't be afraid to turn the card!  Some of these sentiments or images just did not work for a portrait designed layout--so I turned it into a landscape layout instead!
  • White pigment ink is your friend!  White is neutral, and will pull into nearly ANY design--I was stuck on a card or two until I pulled my trusty white ink pad out to play!
Ok--that pretty much sums up the key points--time to show you the cards!

Super Guy with Father sentiment

Frame Rectangle with Father sentiment

When I Dunk (masked) , Alien Funny Face with Father  sentiment

Outhouse with Father  sentiment

Stars/Pixie Dust with Father sentiment

Pocket with Father sentiment

Snapdragon  with Father sentiment

Fireworks with Father sentiment

Aren't those fun!!!  I hope you enjoyed them as much as I did!!  
Thank you so much for stopping by today!  I hope you are enjoying the series so far!

See you all again soon! ~Shanna

Nope Not Today | Quick and Easy Cardmaking

 Hello and Welcome! This is Shanna today with a quick and easy card featuring some fun stamps from Crackerbox Stamps!



Today's card features the following stamps:

Nope Not Today

Magnolia Stellata


The card features the Magnolia Stellata stamped in teal ink repeatedly onto a white die cut doily shape to create a background pattern.  Next I used white pigment ink on teal cardstock with the Nope Not Today sentiment.  I chose an off-centered focal point for added interest, and the card was assembled and completed!  See?!?  I told you it was quick and easy!
