Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps - 2020

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 had some fun with my Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps.


So far 2020 has been quite something and Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps expressed that quite accurately with this custom 2020 stamp that you can get in the store. I think it captures the essence of this year. I used the COVID-19 virus as cornerstones and created a frame, filling it with the dot splatter stamp  and grey sponging. I also used the technique of the month - using stamps as frame for this card. 
In case you are wondering about that feisty little dog - it's from a different stamp company (Cats on Appletrees) and not available in the US. I am aware that I shouldn't mix stamp companies, but I simply could not resist ;)




Here are the 20% off stamp sale categories: 
The August card technique is USE STAMPS FOR A FRAME .

Think your choice of this dog says it all, as does this fabulous image, 2020 has sucked and your card depicts it perfectly.

Tee hee, Cornelia ... such a cutie ... you put your feelings about this year so succinctly! Playing catch up ... and enjoyed seeing all the inspiration you've shared over the last couple of weeks ... so many brilliant (as ever!) ideas! Hugs, Anita :)

Du bringst es auf den Punkt und ich befürchte, die Karte kannst Du nächstes Jahr noch mal machen, mit geänderter Zahl.
Und warum soll man keine Stempel mischen? Ich mache das ständig!!

This is by far, bar none, my favorite card for 2020 by anyone anywhere, Cornelia! The 2020 is a fabulous says-it-all image all by itself, but having the dog pee on it is just brilliant!!!

What do you mean you shouldn't mix stamp companies? I think it's wonderful to show the love to as many as possible. Unless you mean if you are spose to be showcasing one company's product? I get that, I guess, but I still call this The Best Card of 2020!! I hope you're keeping well! Hugs, Darnell

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!
