Christmas with Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps

Hi Everybody,

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.

I hope you don't mind me showing you a Christmas card at this time....However I got inspired by the Library challenge and immediately know that Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps has the perfect selection of stamps for it.



And here are all those stamps:


As you can see, I used a blue background and stamped with Versamark. Heat embossed in gold. Added the grid with a Versamark pen. Heat embossed. The Noel is stamped on a rusty orange background paper. I also did some sponging in the upper left and lower right corner.




Here are the 20% off stamp sale categories: 
The card technique is STENCIL.


No photo description available.


You can get $5.00 store credit once a week. Each month we will have several categories on sale for 20% OFF and a technique for that month. All you have to do is make a card with at least one stamp from the sales category and use the technique (in June its "stencil") and 
Vicky will put $5.00 on your store account and leave you a comment that it is done. We can't wait to see your creative work!

LOVE how you interpretted the inspiration. A Christmas card seems to be the perfect method. Love the gold embossing on blue and the shading enhances it beautifully.

Oh I LOVE the blue with that orangey-red you used. The shading on this is fabulous and your use of the gold really makes the card shine. GORGEOUS design!

I think you did an amazing job drawing that grid! I love the shine of the gold embossing - a lovely Christmas card and a perfect take on the book cover. Thanks for joining The Library.

Easter Egg and Bunny

Hi Everyone, I made a bunch of Easter cards, after all its little more than one month and I need to send them out in time... You see, they are all similar - using both the die cut and the negative, that I cut from a die cut egg. The cute bunnies got their yearly appearance - they are from Impression Obsession. the egg is by Lifestyle Crafts. The sentiment is by Papertrey. And here are bigger photos from this set: Linking up with Creative with Stamps - Easter The Paper Players - die cutting Die Cut Divas - animals Happy Little Stampers - anything goes with dies

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it.

Mirror Image Stamping with So Suzy and the MISTI

Hi Everyone, I am so happy to be part of this wonderful event - the collaboration between So Suzy and the MISTI from My Sweet Petunia doing mirror image stamping.  This event is going on for the ENTIRE  MONTH! We are demonstrating the  Mirror Image Stamp    which coordinates with the Misti Stamping Tool! All month long, different bloggers will post a card using the  Mirror Image Stamp .  In my tutorial today, I will show you how use the  Mirror Image Stamp  on your cards. You can basically double your stamp supplies that way! The  mirror image stamp  is  a 4.25" x 5.5" piece of red rubber with no foam backing. So much larger than the other mirror image stamps out there and therefore much more useful!
