Funny Skelton Birthday Card

 Hello Stamper. Vicky is here with Congratulations on a birthday card.

I stamped the image, Birthday Skeleton. I love this image. My dad laughed pretty hard when he saw it. I made the tablecloth by dashing the marker to make a pattern.

The Congratulations Snarky was stamped next with blue ink. I like the font used on this stamp. It can be used for many different occasions.

To go along with the skeleton is the saying, You Survived sentiment.

Grannie Should Know Better Card

Hello and welcome! This is Shanna today, and I have a hilariously snarky card featuring products from Crackerbox Stamps to share with you today!

Stamps Used:

Clara with Cocktail Lg.

So When Is This

Buffalo Background

With the newest release from Crackerbox Stamps happening a few weeks ago--I knew I needed to pair these two up! I love Clara and all her glory! I am pretty sure this sentiment is something she would say!

To start my card, I grabbed a pastel ombre patterned paper from my stash and then stamped the Buffalo Background directly onto it using pale pink ink. I love how it added subtle interest to the background! I stamped and colored Clara with Copic markers and fussy cut her out--I even tried to give her a little bit of a sunburn!!. My sentiment was stamped in pink ink onto a light pink cardstock and then cut down to a strip that was as wide as my card (4.25"). I adhered the sentiment strip directly onto the background, and then I added Clara with a bit of foam tape for dimension to finish off the card!

Thanks so much for dropping by. I will see you all again soon!

Snarky Marriage Card

Hi Everybody! Cornelia here today. I am back with my Crackerbox Stamps post for this week. Crackerbox Stamps recently had a new release with hilariously snarky sentiments. One of which I used here.

For the background, I used patterned paper. I stamped the cards twice on scrap paper and colored them with alcohol ink markers, and cut them out. Added them to the paper and stamped half of the sentiment (I cut the stamp apart, but you can mask it if you don't want to do that). Stamped the heart and diamond and cut them out, and added them as well. Stamped the rest of the sentiment into the inside of my card.

The stamps I used (different options):

Cards suits solid and Marriage is Like

Card suits open and Marriage is like

Card Suits Hand and Card Suits open

Witch's Hat Tent Fold Card

 Hello! Nadine here today with a witches hat tent fold card.
It's not too early for Halloween cards, is it? Nah!!

This was a fun card to make. I first made my card base by cutting a black piece of cardstock at 4¼" x 11" and folding it in half. Then using green cardstock, I cut it at 10" x 4" and scored and folded it at 5¼" x 7⅝". Then I attached the 5¼" section of the green cardstock to half of the black cardstock piece.

On some white cardstock, I stamped the Witch's Boots and Spider Spooky and colored the boots and leggings with Copic Markers. Attached it to some spider web patterned paper and then attached it to the card base. On the front fold, I cut a piece of the patterned paper to fit it and then stamped the Somedays sentiment on white cardstock and cut it to fit into the middle of the front fold piece. Then I stamped the Witch's Hat, colored it with Copic Markers and fussy cut it out, and attached it to the top of the front fold.

When the card is folded up, it fits perfectly into an A2-size envelope.

Happiness is Chasing Sunsets Cards

Hello and welcome! This is Shanna here today, and I am excited to be kicking off a super fun card series featuring some of the stamps from the Happiness Is Collection from Crackerbox Stamps! This collection has a TON of different sentiment choices, and I am really looking forward to sharing some of them with all of you over the coming months.

I stamped the Truck Side View image directly onto a landscape A2 card panel and then drew in my sunset scene with Copic markers. I don't do a lot of hand-drawn scene cards, but this one was a lot of fun! The mountains are just staggered triangles, and the shading was pretty easy to accomplish as well. I stamped my sentiment directly onto the "road" to finish off the card. Then I used the Happiness Is Stamp and the Open Road Stamp to create my sentiment.

This series will be a monthly series that publishes each month on the 3rd of the month. I will be using a different sentiment each month paired with the title's sentiment from the collection, Happiness Is. If you'd like to view the entire collection together, you can also view that HERE. There is also something *special* happening alongside this series--so be sure to read all the way until the end to find out!

This month I even have a bonus card using the focal stamp because I just couldn't resist!! Let me know in the comments which one you like best.

For my second card, I was still having a lot of fun coloring sunsets, so I stuck with the same sky colors but chose instead to make a portrait orientation of the card. I used a posit note to mask the top edge of the truck bed, so I could stamp the Pile of Snow or Dirt image to where it looked like it was in the truck bed. I colored everything with Copic markers again. I love how the Truck Side View image fills the card from side to side!! I didn't draw a large scene with this, just adding the road for a horizon line for my sunset. I heat embossed the Annoy Me sentiment onto black cardstock and attached it below the truck to finish off the card.

ALL STAMPS USED:

Happiness Is

Open Road

Truck Side View

Pile of Snow or Dirt

Annoy Me

I had a lot of fun making these cards---and am really excited to keep moving forward in this series. Take a peek at the Happiness Is collection for yourself and see if you are inspired as well!

Here are the previous cards in the series:

Happiness is...Cocktails

Happiness is...Coffee

Crackerbox Fans, BONUS!!

During this series, a special discount code has been created just for all of YOU!

A Fairy Funny Snarky Card

Hello Stampers. Vicky is here today with a funny fairy card using some of our new release stamps! 

I stamped the Skeleton Dancing and the Don't Make Me saying.

I masked the skeleton's top part and Olesya's Butterfly's middle. Once I got the butterfly inked, I removed the mask and stamped it over the skeleton.

Did you get to the last stamp and almost mess up the card? I stamped the Wand Star Circle in yellow ink because of the stars. It was so light I could hardly see it. So I put Yellow Glitter Glue, and I couldn't see it. After the Glitter Glue dried, I used my Stamp-A-Ma-Jig and stamped the Wand in black.

Stamps Used:

Skeleton

Olesya's Butterfly

Wand Star Circle

Don't Make Me

or

Both Stamps Set: Don't Make Me and Wand Circle
