Funny Caterpillar Butterfly Card

Toni here with you today from under my cozy blankets. All this cool weather has got me wanting to hibernate.  You too? 
I had gotten the Caterpillars and Saying stamps with the intention of creating a summer card, but that slipped by way too fast. A bit of mental gymnastics, and I turned it into an autumnal card instead.

To begin, I stamped the Fancy Butterfly with a melange of Catherine Pooler inks. The sentiment is stamped with Versafine Clair Nocturne.  I then die-cut some circles from the panel and popped them up to create the look of thought bubbles.

Next, I stamped the caterpillar and colored him up with Copics, adding a die-cut hill cut from scraps.

Autumn Trees

 Hi, Janet here with a card full of fall colors.
On a white cardstock circle, I stamped some leaves with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored it with copic markers. It is layered on a larger, rust color, scalloped-edge circle. Next, I stamped the word  Autumn with Clair  VersaFine Nocturne Ink on a die-cut piece of light brown paper. I punched a hole and tied a thin brown string through it. Then I attached it to the circle. Three brads are added for dimension.
For the base, I used a rust color block design. I cut a slightly smaller piece of fall paper with trees. I placed it on the left side with a small border. Then I attached the circle to the card.

Have a bushel of fun!

 Hello, Janet here with a fall card. Picking apples is one of my favorite fall activities.

I stamped the basket of apples on white cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with copic markers. Next I stamped the word, Autumn across the top with Clair VersaFine Nocturne Ink. I layered it on black cardstock, and then on black checkered paper. A black ribbon is wrapped around and tied on the left side. The last layered is red with outlines of apples.

Falling Leaves

 Hello, Janet here with a colorful fall card. I think anyone would enjoy receiving this.
Using an oval die, I cut a piece of white cardstock. I stamped the sentiment, "A fallen leaf is nothing more than Summer's wave goodbye," with Clair VersaFine Nocturne Ink. Using copper foil cardstock, I cut a larger oval to layer the sentiment on. The next two layers are printed with fall paper and matching copper foil. I centered the sentiment and attached it. The finishing touch is the thin copper string.

Sassy Cows and Snarky Laughs

      Hi Everyone, Dalis here!

I’m joining the Just for Giggles hop on Instagram again, and ever since discovering Crackerbox Stamps, it feels like that’s all I ever reach for during this hop—and honestly, can you blame me? Their stamps have the perfect mix of funny and snarky that makes me laugh every single time.

This round, I’m featuring one of my all-time favorite cows, Miss Daisy. 🐮 I tried to branch out and use one of the other hilarious sentiments from the set, but somehow I always end up circling back to my trusty “KISS MY DAIRY-ERRE”—because really, it just says it all! 😄

I started with a cream-colored tag, stamping Miss Daisy front and center. To give her a little scene to stand on, I used a bit of washi tape to mask a line—it’s one of those simple tricks that always makes a big difference. Then I went to town with my mini blending brushes, blending Bahama Blue, Rose Bud, and Dandelion inks from Memento. The mix of those colors gave the background such a cheerful, lighthearted feel—perfect for Miss Daisy’s personality!

Once the ink was dry, I added a few doodles to ground the tag and started pulling together some pattern papers and older backgrounds from my stash. It’s always fun to give those leftover bits new life, especially when they tie everything together so perfectly.

Supply List:
Memento Bahama Blue
Memento Tuxedo Black
Memento Dandelion

Additional Supplies: Alcohol Markers, white gel pen, pattern paper, and black bling.


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

Snarky Cowboy Costume Picture Card

 Hello, pilgrims! Today I'm sharing a snarky kind of Halloween card with you.
I noticed the Cowboy was actually wearing a horse costume and not riding an actual horse so, of course, I thought of Halloween.

I decided to go vintage, so I colored the image with Polychromos colored pencils and created a Polaroid photo, combining that with the farm-themed papers and the hilarious Banister of Life sentiment.

This reminds me of Jack Palance's character in City Slickers.  LOL.

If Aliens Are Smart sentiment stamp. I layered the sentiment on green cardstock. I added three purple glitter stars to finish the card. Thanks for stopping by.

Believe In Yourself

Hi, Timothy here sharing a little reminder to Believe In Yourself.
I started with a yellow cardstock base. I layered it with some plaid paper
leaving a border between each piece.
I colored and cut out the Harry image and his broom from the 
Harry P set 1 stamp set. I cut around his hand and glued his
broom underneath to look as though he's holding it.
I stamped the Believing In Yourself sentiment stamp on yellow cardstock
and cut it into a rectangle. Lastly I added a few stars around 
the sentiment.
Thank you for stopping by and have a good day!

Dance As Though No One Is Watching Card

Hello Stampers. Vicky here today with an inspirational card.
I used our little hippie girl dancing through the flowers.
The card base is pink cardstock. The next layer is white cardstock, and then green printed paper with little hearts.
I used a die-cut for the main focus of the card, and then stamped the saying, Dance Sing Love.
Harmony Small was stamped in the lower corner and colored.
Since Harmony has daisies, I put silk flowers on the card. Pink pearls are put in the center of each flower.
Harmony comes in 2 sizes, Large Harmony and Small Harmony.

I hope you like our little hippie and her saying.

Retro Gossip Girl Card

Are you a fan of retro/vintage artwork?  I love it.  There's just something about the 1940s-60s--at least as portrayed through the media. The old ads and Hollywood movies with their sassy characters are so fun.


I took inspiration from Graphic 45 paper that I had forgotten I had (what a surprise!).  Those dots and cherries were perfect to pair with Betty with Question Variations.

I embossed her on a sturdy vellum and fussy cut her out.  Then, I adhered her to the dotty red paper using liquid glue but shouldn't have put any glue under her fingertip. 

The dots on cherry paper aren't white white but a bit gray so I chose a coordinating paper from my stash, stamping the Don't Repeat Gossip sentiment onto the banner and adding a contrasting banner beneath.

Aye Matey Pirate Card

 Hello Stampers! Vicky is here today with a card for anyone who likes pirates or Jack Sparrow.
I started with white cardstock for my card, then mounted it on blue cardstock. As I was placing the white cardstock on the blue, my cat jumped onto my table and knocked my card crooked.
I stamped J. Sparrow and colored him with Copic markers.
Next, I stamped the Treasure Chest and colored that with Copic markers.
I added glitter dots for the gems in the treasure chest (the glitter doesn't show on the pic).
The sand is made by markers. Water and sky were sponged with ink.
I stamped the saying, You're A Treasure on tan cardstock.
Before I took the die off, I outlined it with Copic Glitter Pen.

Arrr Matey, I hope you enjoyed the card.

A Minion's Greeting

Bello! Timothy here today sharing a fun Minion card.

I started with a white card base. Next I layered a piece of navy cardstock to the base.
I cut a piece of white paper and used that as a guide to layer the corner pieces 
of pattern paper that I added on top.
I glued down the banana paper and cut off the excess. I added the lighter blue piece next, then the yellow piece and lastly the darker blue piece and cut off the excess from the previous pieces of pattern paper. To cover the seams, I added strips of yellow cardstock.
I wrote the sentiment Bello in my own handwriting and cut around it leaving a small 
border. I colored and cut out the Minion and his hat from the Minion 1 stamp set 
and added him to the card. Have a fun day.

FORE!

 Hello, Janet here with a card for the golfer in your life.
Using a small piece of white cardstock, I stamped the word golf and the tee with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the tee and embossed the cardstock to look like golf ball dimples. I die cut a strip of grass and attached it to the lower edge of the stamped cardstock. That cardstock is layered on burgundy paper. Then  I layered that onto printed design paper. The last layer is matching the burgundy paper before attaching it to the card.

Sweet Friendship Card

Hi, everyone!  Today's card was really simple to make but still packs a lot of detail (and cute details at that).

I first stamped and colored the Bee Girl image on a piece of Copic-friendly cardstock. Then, I masked the image and used a honeycomb stencil with a purple Catherine Pooler ink.

Originally, I had planned to place the white panel on a plain black card front, but decided it needed something more. I used a Lawn Fawn scalloped die to fancy it up and adhered the lot to a bright yellow cardstock. 

This was a great move, as now I had a colorful way forward with the sentiment die. So so cute!

You'll Always Bee My Sunshine

Hello, Timothy here today sharing a sweet bee card.

I started with a light purple card base. I layered it with a piece of
yellow plaid paper. I stamped the sentiment You Are My Sunshine
directly on the pattern paper. I used a photo frame and backed it with
some flower pattern paper. I colored the Girl Bee On Swing and
glued her to the center of the frame. I used a white gel pen to 
add some sparkle to her wings. Lastly, as usual, I added enamel dots.

Thanks for swinging by and have a sweet day.

Memories Card

 Hello Stamper. I am here to share another idea using our spiral stamp.
You could use some pictures with this.
I stamped the Spiral Side stamp twice.
Next, the Memories was stamped.
I trimmed it to fit on the card.
The edges were sponged in Ocure ink.
I used the same ink for the Design 2 stamp.
If you need a little extra to put on your card, we have plenty of elements.
With light blue ink to match the card, I used the Stipple Texture Brush.

Let's Misbehave!

Salutations, Timothy here today to see who's ready to Misbehave!

I started with a wheat color card base, which I also used as mat layers 
for the 2 inch pattern paper squares. 
I stamped the Newt's Initials stamp on the blue-green layer, using the 
same color ink for a tone on tone look.
I stamped the In The Mood To Misbehave stamp
and cut out each line in the sentiment to
show off more of the background.
I stamped and colored the Newt Scamander image and added him
to the bottom of my card.
Lastly, as usual, I added a few enamel dots to finish the card.
