You're my Favorite Muggle Card
Hello and Welcome! This is Shanna today, and I am excited to share a fun project featuring Crackerbox Stamps!
Today's card features one of my favorite magical stamps in the entire Crackerbox Stamps collection! I have used this stamp a multitude of times on different cards--both in the background and as a featured image. I absolutely adore the Castle of Hogwarts stamp THAT much! I paired it with the Favorite Muggle sentiment for the perfect pair!
Now, let's talk a little about the card. I love taking basic shape dies--a staple in most cardmakers' craft room-- and altering them to suit my needs. For this card, I used a nested circle die set and cut 2 circles--a white one that I intended to stamp and color on, and a larger black one to mat my focal piece. After stamping, I decided I wanted to "ground" my image some and cut off part of the bottom of the circle. This made what in my head is easiest to call a "snow globe shape"! They make dies that look like this - but why purchase another die set if I don't have to?? I would much rather buy more stamps!! haha. To match the cut with the black circle, I glued the smaller one to the black circle - lining up the top edges for reference, and then used my paper trimmer to snip off the straight edge of the black circle! Do you like to alter dies at all?? What shape do you reach for most when card making?
My castle is colored completely in Copic markers, with a freehanded moon and night sky that were fun additions to the magical scene. The Favorite Muggle sentiment was heat embossed in white embossing powder on black cardstock.
Thanks so much for joining me today! I will see you all again soon, Shanna.

Dobby Harry Potter Card
Hello and welcome!! This is Shanna today with a new magical card featuring fantastic red rubber stamps from Crackerbox Stamps.
Dobby
Dobby Likes Socks
Dobby & Socks Saying (both stamps together)
Today’s card is a fun CAS card that uses a scrap of pattern paper to elevate the design a bit! The card starts with a mini slimline base measuring 3”x 6”. I stamped the Dobby image using Copic safe ink in the lower left corner of the panel and then colored it in using my Copic markers. Next, I grabbed a scrap of starry patterned paper and trimmed it down to 3”x 5” and then cut a diagonal angle across about two-thirds down. I aligned it onto the card base over the Dobby image and positioned it so I had enough room to stamp the Dobby Likes Socks sentiment! I adhered to the pattern paper and then added a thin strip of black cardstock along the same angle to create a bit of border between the two “halves” of the design to finish off the card.I love how simple this design is to create and how versatile it is with all sorts of images! What stamps would you like paired with this design??
Thanks so much for stopping by, and I will be back soon again with another project!

Funny Skeleton Halloween Card
Hello! Nadine here today with a funny skeleton Halloween card.
Using some black cardstock, I stamped the Skeleton Crazy Dancing and the Funny Bone sentiment using VersaMark. Then I used some super fine white embossing powder and heat embossed the sentiment and image. Before I stamped the images, I used an embossing magic powder so the embossing powder didn't stick to the cardstock anywhere I didn't want it to.
Then I matted the stamped card front with orange and yellow cardstock so it looked like candy corn.
STAMPS USED:
Skeleton Crazy Dancing
Funny Bone

Easter With Bunny & Chick Card
Hello friends! Ericka here, and today I have an Easter card I made for my nephews using the Bunny and Chick stamps.
I love these cute little critters; they are so fun to color up. I started with a background I made using some shimmer spray. I masked a portion of my card to create a darker section. I stamped these cute critters and colored them up with watercolor pens. I cut them out with my Brother Scan and Cut and attached the Bunny and Chick to my backgrounds. I finished my card with the Happy Easter sentiment, and it's ready to send off.
Thanks for stopping by!
