Friends Are Therapists

Welcome back snarky friends!

Tracy here and today I have a fun little snarky card that I created using some of my favourite Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps. Here are all of the details.

Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps Used:

Minion Kevin          Friends Are Therapists        Stars- Open             Minion Stuart


Other Products Used:

Stickles- Diamond
Cardstock- White
Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L- 3D Foam Squares, Crafty Foam Tape, E-Z Runner Petite
Distress Oxide Ink- Lucky Clover, Twisted Citron, Squeezed Lemonade

I created a simple blended background with my Distress Oxide Inks and then stamped a star border around the whole edge of the card front. Using my trusty MISTI, I added the sentiment to the middle of the card.
Mat the card front in white cardstock and adhere to the card base using crafty foam tape.

I stamped the minions using Catherine Pooler Ink and then added color to them using Chameleon Pens. I added the fussy cut minions to the card front using foam squares.

Finally I added Diamond Stickles to all of the stamped stars around the border of the card for a little extra sparkle.

No Good Count Phil

Hello Crackerbox & Suzy Stamp fans. Ericka here with a fun minion card featuring Count Phil. I love this little guy and his mischievous look.

These minions are so darn fun to color up and there are so many fantastic sentiments to pair with them.

 

This just happens to be one of my favorite to use with them lol.

I started out stamping Count Phil on Bristol Smooth paper with Versafine ink and clear heat embossing him.  I then colored him up with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers and cut him out.

While he was drying I worked on the background. I used Bristol Smooth paper and blended Distress Oxide Inks in Brushed Corduroy, Vintage Photo, and Black Soot. I let it dry and then took the Tim Holtz Skull stencil and blended white ink on top. I love the eerie look it gave the card.

I used Versamark ink and white heat embossing for the fun sentiment. To finish off my card, I used foam tape to adhere Count Phil to the card. For more information on how I created my card stop by my blog Strangely Creative.

Thanks for stopping by and don't forget about the Halloween Sale going on until the end of September.

Minion Count Phil Trick or Treat

Hello everyone!

Here is how I created my card:

My card is an A2 size card, I used distress inks to create the background, I masked off the moon, after I created the background I added distress ink to create the moon.   I stamped the Trick or Treat Circle onto the moon with black ink and added the Crackerbox & Suzy Stamp Bats Flying By to the card using black ink.  I stamped the Crackerbox & Suzy Stamp Minion Count Phil colored him with copics and cut him out using the Scan and Cut.  I die cut a small hill to mount the Minion on, I added Minion Count Phil with foam squares and adhered him to the card.  To finish off the card I added some shimmer spray.

Closer look at the card.

Up to No Good

Happy weekend Crackerbox fans! Ericka here with a fun minion card from the latest release! I love these little guys and there are so many great sentiments to pair with them.

I used Copics to color up the Minion Stuart Playing. I love his little smirk that could be mischievous.

For my background, I used a stencil I had die cut out of clear plastic and blended a combination of Distress Oxides. I love ink blending and actually made these two different versions to see which one I would be the best background.

I decided that the purple one would help my minion stand out more. I blended Antique Linen, Victorian Velvet, Seedless Grape, and Chipped Sapphire. I stamped the sentiment with Versafine ink and clear heat embossed it. Again another fun sentiment for any type of card.

I finished my card by fussy cutting my little minion out and attached him to the card with foam tape. 

Thanks for stopping by and for more information on how I created my card, feel free to stop by my blog, Strangely Creative. Have a wonderful weekend! Don't forget about the sale this month and free shipping on $45 US or $65 International!

MInions Card by Martha Lucia

Hello Crafty friends! Today I am up featuring the Minios & Adults stamps. These images are part of the most recently release and they are simply adorable. Take a look at my card:

The base of my card is basic black and I used a whisper white second layer to create my design. I stamped the Minion Bob Golfing and the Minion Kevin Golfing with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored with Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers. With three different green colors of Memento Ink I stamped the images from the stamp set Grass Set of 2.

For the sentiment I used the Adults stamp. It is part of the fabulous snarky collection of Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps. To make more attractive my design, I inked some clouds on top of the Minions and added a rectangle frame to mark the funny situation.

This month the sale on Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps is a big collection. All the Western Stamps are 20% OFF. You don't need to use any code because the price is marked down and also you will receive FREE Shipping in orders over $45 nationally or $65 internationally without include taxes.
