Hello, my friends! Toni here with you today sharing an interactive birthday card for beer-lovers.
I started my card with the brick background using a random combination of Distress Oxide Rusty Hinge and Fired Brick spattered with Black Soot as well as Copic Opaque White.
For the whirling mechanism I split up the Birthday 1 sentiment so when you turn it, you reveal the second half of the sentiment along with confetti from Birthday 2.

Once dry, I embossed Stars Swirl on the sheet. I divided the sheet up and adhered the pieces to black cardstock which I then embossed with According to Astonomy (left card) and The Universe (right). I also added more Stars Swirl to the righthand card.

Hello stampers! Everyone dreams of fishing during the lazy days of summer. These cute cards would please young and old alike.
I stamped the boy and dog in the boat first with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. Next I stamped the water ripple. On the second card I stamped the boy on the pier. Then I stamped a small fish in the water. I colored both cards with copic markers. I used a stipple brush and blue ink to color the sky background. The last stamps used were the Birthday Wishes and It's your Birthday with VersaFine Black Ink
Thanks for looking at my cards

Hi Everybody! Cornelia here today. Father's Day is coming up and Crackerbox Stamps has wonderful stamps for this occasion!
I started with placing the Washi tape first (an old one from my stash). I stamped the car, overlapping it a bit with the Washi tape. Stamped the bumper again onto scrap paer and cut it out. Added it to the car. Colored it with alcohol ink markers. Stamped the sentiment. Added some enamel dots.
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:
 |
| 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 |
Hi Everybody!
Cornelia back today with my Crackerbox Stamps post for this week. I made this card using a combination of the new clear stamps with the old red rubber stamps.
Some of the products I have used have been provided to me from various companies I design for. Affiliate links may be used in the links provided below. 
Hello and welcome!! This is Shanna today with a couple new cards featuring Crackerbox Stamps!
Did you hear?? Crackerbox Stamps has POLYMER STAMPS now!! They just had the inaugural release on March 1st and oh my goodness they did NOT disappoint! There are three brand new sets full of the snarky humor we all love from Crackerbox Stamps.
You can take a peek at all three sets *HERE*
Today's projects feature the fabulous Birthday 1 polymer stamp set. This set includes three large sentiments with 3 coordinating images that mix and match together for endless possibilities!
I decided to add a few masculine cards to my stash and used the "Cheers, Beers and many more years!" sentiment paired with the duo of beer mugs image! I grabbed a few of my Zig watercolor markers and stamped the mugs all over a piece of mixed media paper using a waterproof black ink. I colored them all and then trimmed my panel to 4" x 5.25". I set aside the leftover scrap--which ended up turning into a second card!
For this card I ink blended a pennant shape in Distress Oxide inks--pulling from the same colors I had colored the background in. Those colors were Black Soot, Rusty Hinge , and Antique Linen. Then I used a black ink and my MISTI to stamp the mugs and sentiment onto the pennant shape. this was mounted flat onto my card panel and then matted onto another piece of cardstock I swiped Rusty Hinge ink along the sides of to coordinate--lastly adding the panel to a white A2 card base.
The second card pushed me out of my normal box for sure. I knew the scrap was on the smaller end--but I loved the white space still left uncolored. The sentiment was stamped directly onto the scrap in black ink and then I pulled out my prized (maybe hoarded--hardly used) embossing folders and found a masculine friendly neutral pattern that I used on black cardstock to pair with the smaller focal piece. I did a small trim of rusty hinge-colored cardstock and black cardstock to divide them a little. I still wanted to add a little more interest to the card--especially those mugs!! I grabbed my Glossy Accents and added it to all of the mugs. After that was dry, I layered the panels onto a white card base. Finishing touches were a few iridescent enamel dots from my stash.
