Emu Adele & Alfred Slimline Card

Hi there, Martha Lucia here sharing a snarky slimline stamped card featuring stamps recently released by Crackerbox and Suzy Stamps. This card is featuring the Be Yourself sentiment and the Emu Adele and Emu Alfred. These two stamps are also available as a bundle, as Emu Adele & Alfred.

I stamped all the images at the same time using the Misti onto white smooth card stock. I stamped the Emu Alfred on top, the sentiment Be Yourself on the middle, and the Emu Adele on the lower part, all with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink.

I colored the images with Sparkle Glimmer Pens from Spectrum Noir. The colors of Sparkle Glimmer Pens that I used were Cotton Candy, Macroom, Pink Lemonade, Firefly, Emerald Green, and Blue Topaz. Additionally, I resized the layer with one of the Layering Rectangle Slimline Dies. It lets me show the fabulous design of the mat that I die cut with the Double Roped  Rectangle Slimline Dies.

Finally, I pasted the entire decorated layer over the basic black card base with crafty foam tape and added a few colored bubbles from my old stash. As a final touch, just sponged a soft blue ink around to the images to make them more interesting.

Candy Package for Halloween

Hello crafty friends, Martha Lucia is here to share an easy candy package for Halloween. I used the Card Kit #14 released this month to create my package.

I stamped the house onto black card stock using white pigment ink and let the ink dry naturally. Then with Wilted Violet and Wild Honey Distress Oxide Ink, I inked the sides of the house. Additionally, I resized the layer to use it as the front of the package and decorated it with some Halloween Party Sequin Mix and EEK Sequin Mix.  I have all the details about these in my blog or HERE.

 

For the backside of the package, I just inked the entire layer of it with four different colors of distress ink. The colors that I used were Wilted Violet, Wild Honey, Dusty Concord, and Ground Espresso. Additionally, I stamped on the center the sentiment included in Card Kit #14. As a final touch, I embellished with some sprinkles from the collections All Hallows'Eve Sequin Mix and Spiderweb sequins.

The Witch That You Are Halloween Card

Hello crafty friends, Martha Lucia here! Today, I want to share the new Halloween Card Kits from Crackerbox and Suzy Stamps. These are designed to make small packages for candies and little things! I am featuring the Card Kit #13.

The Card Kit #13 includes 10 Peek a Book Pouch Kits and 10 Closable bags, plus 2 different stamps that in my sample I used in both faces of the pouch.

You can decide which is the front or the back of your pouch. For me, the front is the most decorated part that I showed you in the above photo. To make it, I just covered the entire layer with a piece of designer paper. Then, I repeated the process with the little flap with a different designer paper. But this time I added one of my favorite dies for Halloween season, a net from the Halloween border Dies.

I die cut two different Nested Labels Dies, one from designer paper and the other from white smooth card stock. I pasted both over the covered face with crafty foam tape. Additionally, I used them to keep the flap close.

In a separate piece of white smooth card stock, I stamped the witch legs and the sentiment included on the Card Kit #13. I colored the legs with Illustrator Markers from Spectrum Noir. And die cut the sentiment with a Nested Label Dies.

I covered the back of the pouch with the same designer paper that I used for the front. Then, I pasted the sentiment, and finally, I decorated with some batts that I cut from the other border that is included on the Halloween Borders Dies.

Details about the Card Kit #13 and Card Kit #14

Summer or Fall Card by Martha Lucia

Hello crafty friends, Martha Lucia is here to share a seasonal stamped card featuring the Daisy Outline and Solid Set of 2 Stamps from Crackerbox and Suzy Stamps. Summer is ending and fall is around the corner and this card is in between these fabulous seasons.

First, I stamped the Solid Daisy Flower onto white smooth cardstock. I used two different colors of Catherine Pooler Ink. The colors that I used were Limoncello and Sauna.

I continue the process with the Outline Daisy Flower. I stamped it over the solid daisy flower but little moved using Catherine Pooler Ink Mandarin Spice. Additionally, I resized the layer with a Layering Rectangle Slimline Die because I want to frame it with another special die.

ADDITIONAL CARD DETAILS

To frame the stamped layer, I used the large size of the Loopy Rectangle Slimline Dies. I die cut it onto one sheet of Festive Fall Slimline Designer Paper. Then, I pasted both pieces with 3D Foam Tape Squares to a white smooth card base.

I stamped the sentiment Have You Ever and the Witch's Broom onto white smooth card stock. First, I die cut the sentiment with a Stitched Sentiment Strip Die and colored it with the same tones of Catherine Pooler Inks. In addition, I colored the broom with Illustrator Markers from Spectrum Noir and fussy cut it with scissors. Finally, I arrange all the pieces over the decorated card to add a snarky touch.

See you soon with more inspiration and happy shopping!

Card Kit 11: Semi Funky Fold Accordion Card by Martha Lucia

Hello crafty friends, Martha Lucia is here with one of the most beautiful kits of the season! I just pop up to share the Card Kit 11of Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps. This is a Semi Funky Fold Accordion Card. For me, it is a really long name for a beautiful card kit. Let's take a look at my card:

With the Card Kit 11 you have many options to create a decoration. I preferred to keep my clean and colorful style and this time I opted for a Foliage Die Cut frame. 

I cut the die-cut frame twice in two different colors. I pasted one entire over the inside part of the card and stamped the sentiment on the center of it. Then, I distributed the second over the card front. I pasted it directly over the card base using E-Z Adhesive Runner and leaving the leaves with free movement.

I continue the creation of the card, stamping twice the fabulous Giraffe included on the Card Kit 11 onto White Smooth Card Stock. For it, I used Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. Additionally, I colored each Giraffe with Illustrator Markers from Spectrum Noir. And fussy cut the Giraffes with scissors.

I arranged the giraffes on the folding parts of the Semi Funky Fold Accordion Card and pasted them with E-Z Runner Adhesive. Then, I decorated with some leaves that I die from the Grand Cinch and Go Flowers Etched Dies by Spellbinders. As a final touch, I just splattered the entire card with a few drops of Fireworks Dandelion.

Christmas in July Cards by Martha Lucia

Hi friends, Martha Lucia here. Today I have two Mini Slimline Christmas Cards featuring the Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps.

This card is featuring the recently released Lady with Holding Hand. I really like this rubber stamp and it is a perfect size for the Mini Slimline Cards. First, I stamped it onto White Smooth Card Stock and then colored it with a combination of Illustrator Markers and TriBlend Markers. I used the TriBlend for the skin, the market that I used was the Fair Skin Blend. It is a set of 3 markers the FS6 + FS7 + FS8. The Illustrator colors were LG1, LG3, GY4, and DR2. After colored the Lady with Holding Hand, I fussy cut the image with scissors and let it aside for a while.

I continue the process of creating the layers of my card. First, I made the card base using green card stock, Then, I die cut a second layer using the large size of the Delighted Lace Rectangle Mini Slimline Die onto Red Card stock. I love how this delicate border looks over the card bases. I pasted it directly over the card. Additionally, I die-cut a third layer using designer paper. But this time, I used the second size of the Big & Little Chain Rectangle Mini Slimline Dies. With this, I enhance the dots and details of all the dies that I used.

Over the third layer, I stamped the sentiments Joy and Peace with VersaFine Pigment Onix. Then, I pasted the colored Lady over this layer with crafty foam tape and finalized the card pasting the entire decorated layer over the card with 3D foam tape.

MORE INSPIRATION

My second card keeps the same sketch, I just turned the layout to vertical and stamped the sentiment on the lower part. This time, I used the Santa and Reindeer Dancing Stamp and the Make a Rum Cake as sentiment. Additionally, I used the large size of the Scalloped Stitched Rectangle Mini Slimline Die as a mat for the decorated layer.

I colored the Santa and Reindeer Dancing Stamp with Classique Markers and fussy cut it with scissors. The colors of Classique Markers were DR1, DR3, GB3, GB6, FS2, FS9, CR3, and Blender. Additionally, I changed the color of the card base to create a different contrast.

Honestly, this is the same layout applied to two different cards.. It is a great way to create mass cards specialty when you have to make Christmas cards.

This weekend Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps is having their Christmas in July Promotion and all the Christmas stamps are 15%OFF.  You don’t need to use any code, just add them to your cart and the price will be automatically reduced.

Card with Movement by Martha Lucia

Hello crafty friend, Martha Lucia here to share with you a card with movement! I am featuring the Card Kit 10 of Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps. One of the two kits released this month. These Card Kits are Z Fold Cards that include card bases and stamps.

First, I cut a strip of basic black card stock to paste behind the three square panels. Then, I stamped each of the three caterpillars included on the Card Kit 10  with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. In addition, I colored each image with Illustrator Markers from Spectrum Noir and fussy cut them with scissors.

To make the front of the card, I die cut a piece of designer paper with the second size of the Scalloped Stitched Rectangle Mini Slimline Die. I pasted it directly over the card base with E-Z Runner Tape. Additionally, I partially stamped the sentiment or edited the sentiment, included it on the Card Kit 10, and die-cut it with a Scalloped Circle.

TIP: To give more dimension and make the card more attractive, I paste the small images with crafty foam tape.

Like this is a stamped card with movement, a Z Fold Card; I just stamped the second part or lower part of sentiment included on the Card Kit 10.

Remember that if you buy both kits of the month, you get 25% OFF on the second kit. You can find all the details HERE.

Floral Z Fold Stamped Card

Hi there, Martha Lucia here! I just pop up to share the Card Kit 9 . This is one of the two released this month. Both kits are Z Fold Cards with Stamps.

 I cut a strip of designer paper to paste behind of the three square panels. Then, I stamped each word included on the sentiment stamp with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink using the masking technique.

I inked the front of the card with two different tones of distress ink. Like the card stock of the card bases included on the kit are a great weight this is a perfect one layer card.

In a separate piece of white smooth card stock, I stamped twice of the bunch of flowers included on the Card Kit 9. I colored them with Illustrator Markers from Spectrum Noir. The colors that I used were AG1, AG3, AG5, YG2, DR1, CR2, FS2, CT2 and HB1. In addition, after coloring I fussy cut the images with scissors and pasted over the decorated card base with crafty foam tape.

Mini Slimline Card with Beer Stamps

Hi friends, Martha Lucia here! Today I have a mini slimline card with the Beer stamps recently released to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps.

I am featuring the new Drunk and Disorderly Sentiment with the Beer Can Large and the Beer Mug Large. These stamps are part of the most recent release and the 20th Anniversary Release.

I stamped the images with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink onto White Smooth Card Stock and colored them Illustrator Markers from Spectrum Noir. Additionally, I resized the layer with the large size of the Tribal Stitched Rectangle Mini Slimline Dies.

Slimline cards are really trending but now the mini slimline size is taking the heart of a lot of crafters. The size of these cards is 6-1/4 x 3-1/2 closed. You can easily make it with regular card stock or designer paper.

After resizing the layer, I think the background was too white; so with a slimline stencil, I just inked free areas with distressed oxide ink. Additionally, I added an easy texture over the stamped image of the Beer Mug Large. For that, I just apply a few lines of White Radiant Neon Amplify from Imagine and heat with the heat tool. It gives dimension to the mug and a look of foam.

In the store, there are also three different sizes of Mystery Boxes full of rubber stamps and surprise products with great promotional prices.

Thanks for stopping by and you can find the complete details and the list and links of all the products that I used on my card HERE in my Stampartpapel blog.

See you soon with more inspiration!
