Hello crafty friends! Ericka here, and today I'm playing with a fun and snarky sentiment stamp, You're Drunk, and a mixed media background.
I stamped the Betty with Questions stamp and the You're Drunk sentiment on white card stock. I then cut them out and added them to some kraft card stock to help the image and sentiment stand out from my busy background.
Happy Friday! Ericka here, and I hope you are all doing well. Today I have a quick and fun card using the Stuart with a Cupcake stamp and a new sentiment, I Mean It's Sorta Exciting.
I started by stamping both the image and sentiment on Bristol Smooth paper and coloring it up with my Zig Clean Color Brush pens. I love this fun image; it goes so well with so many Crackerbox sentiments, including this one. After all, who hasn't eaten a cupcake for breakfast, especially around a birthday lol.
I used a foam blending brush and lightly added some Uncharted Mariner Distress Ink to the corners of my panel. I then attached it to a pattern paper I had in my stash.
And there you have it, a quick and fun card that can be used for various occasions. Thank you for stopping by, and I hope you have a wonderful weekend.
Happy Monday, friends! Ericka here, and today I am playing with alcohol inks and a gel press to make a bright background for my card.
Hello crafty friends! Ericka here and today I have a thank you card featuring Phil the Minion. I love these fun minion stamps at Crackerbox and there are so many ways to use them.
I stamped and colored Phil with watercolor markers and cut him out to add him to my card base. I finished my card with the Thanks a Minion sentiment, and clear heat embossed it. I lined it up a little sideways to match Phil's waving hand. Thank you for stopping by, and I hope you have a wonderful week.
Hello crafty friends! Ericka here with a blue fairy card I made using distress inks and this pretty Fairy With Flower stamp. I love this pretty fairy and thought it went perfectly with the sentiment The Future Belongs.
Hello crafty friends! Ericka here and I hope you are having a great summer! Today I created a colorful card to celebrate the summery heat. And boy do I know a little about the heat here in Houston, TX. All I can say is ugh and boy do I wish I could make this yummy drink in real life.
I started by stamping my Cocktail Summer Fun and coloring it up with my colored pencils. I wanted to make it a yummy fun drink and so decided to use a variety of colors.
I then found this fun background I had in my stash. I had made it with Color Burst Pigment Powders and smooshed them on plastic onto my paper. I love the brightly colorful and random look. I then cut out my drink and added it to my background with foam tape.
Hello crafty friends! Ericka here and today I have a funny card using the new release available here. Today I'm playing with the Some People Say sentiment and the Toilet Roll on a Holder.
I then stamped and fussy cut the Toilet Roll on a Holder and attached it to my card with foam tape. I used my Stabilo pencil to add some shading and lines around my card.
Hello crafty friends! Ericka here and today I am creating a card using distress ink blending and pairing it with this great snarky set called Ever Notice. I love this snarky sentiment and to make things better, the lady is attached to the sentiment so it makes stamping super simple.
Hello crafty friend! Ericka here and I have a simple Distress Oxide Blending Father's Day card using the Bear Fun Orson stamp. I love ink blending and how quick you can make a pretty card using a variety of colors.
I started by masking off the top portion of my card case. I then used Distress Oxide in Tumbled Glass, Faded Jeans, and Ground Espresso. I then spritzed a little water in my hand, flicked it on the base, and used a paper towel to lift off the water droplets.
Once my background was dry, I stamped the Bear Fun Orson and watercolored him with the Ground Espresso ink. I then stamped the World's Greatest and Dad sentiment and white heat embossed it. There you have it, a quick and easy Father's Day card using some Distress Oxide Ink blending. Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful rest of your week!
I stamped the Daisy Bunch and the Thank You All You Do sentiment in black Versa Claire ink and clear heat embossed them. I then took out my watercolor markers and lightly colored up these pretty daisies.
I finished my card by adding some light purple Nuvo drops. And there you have it, a quick and simple thank you card that is easy to make a bunch lol. You can even get your kids involved and have them color up the flowers for their teachers. I hope you have a wonderful rest of the week!
I hope you are all doing well and Happy Mother's Day. As with most holidays, there is lots of happiness but also a sense of loss and remembrance for those who have passed. Today I have a sympathy card I made for my sister-in-law whose mother recently passed away.
Once my background was dry, I used Versamark ink and clear heat embossed the Those We Love sentiment. I then stamped and gold heat embossed the Blowing Butterfly Tree. I love this tree and added a little gray shading to the tree to help it stand out.
Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have a great week.

Hello crafty friends! Ericka here and today I have a quick and fun card using some of the new stamps from Crackerbox. I love this fun Duck Grin and thought he would go perfectly with the Be Like A Duck sentiment.
I then colored up my duck and sky with watercolor markers. To finish my card, I stamped the Be Like A Duck sentiment in Summertime Versa Clair ink and heat embossed it. There you have it a quick and easy card for a friend with a good sense of humor.

I hope you had a wonderful Easter and had the chance to spend some quality time with family and/or friends. Ericka here and today I have a super simple Mother's Day card using the new Mother Definitions stamp. I love and can relate to most of these especially the first one and the caffeine fueled part lol.
To create my card, I used some Bristol Smooth paper and stamped the Mother Definitions stamp first since it is rather long (as it should be!). I then stamped the Betty with Questions although there are plenty of other mother images that would go along with this sentiment. I clear heat embossed them both.
I found a fun vintage pattern paper that I thought would make a nice card base and glued it down to my card. I trimmed my image so that more of the flowers would show and then used some Antique Linen Distress Ink to shade the white paper.
I hope you are all doing well. Ericka here and today I am playing with some of the new stamps in April as well as Mirror Image stamping. First of all, I love this Don't Have Duck in Row sentiment as it totally relates to my life now. lol
Hello crafty friends! Ericka here and I hope you are all doing well. Today I have a fun Easter card using the Butt & Ear stamp along with the Hoppy Easter Every Bunny sentiment. I love this fun image and it makes me laugh every time I use it.
I used the Distress Oxides in Saltwater Taffy and Abandoned Coral and blended them onto my card base. I lightly spritzed the paper and lifted off some of the ink.
I then stamped the Butt & Ear stamp in Versafine Sepia and clear heat embossed it. I used the Versafine Black in for the Hoppy Easter Every Bunny sentiment. This was such a fun and quick card to make and I can't wait to send it to my friend.
