Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps - Minions for Fathers Day

    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.  You may be familiar with the new card kits that  Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps  carries in the store. They are fabulous!  For this card I only used the slider die cut card from the new May  Card Kits . Below you can see the details on the two May kits.  I decided to make a Fathers Day card with my favorite Minions. I used Minion Phil and Minion Stuart . For the inside sentiment I went with a simple Thank You . I sponged teh slider card with yellow and blue distress oxide inks. I stamped the minions on a piece of scrap paper and colored them with water brush pens and markers. Fuzzy cut them. Marked the inside of the card to stamp the sentiment. Added some Washi tape and assembled everything.  Here are the new May card kits: Card Kit 5

Topflight Stamps - Indigo Blu

        Hi Everyone, It's  Topflight Stamps   day!  this week we are featuring Indigo Blu Stamps I sponged the background with distress oxide inks. I dabbed a fresh foam pad on my blending tool into bleach and squeezed out the excess and lightly dabbed it onto the fossilized ammonite stamp and stamped it. Perhaps plain water would work as well, but I didn't want to take a chance. I stamped the fish onto a piece of scrap paper and cut it out. Added it onto my card base with foam tape. (I had actually heat embossed the fish first on the card base and had colored it, but didn't like the way it looked.....so the extra added fish, LOL!). I also heat embossed the sentiment. Trimmed the card and added some Washi tape (Funky Fossil Designs). Lastly I added the dew drops and a googly eye for more interest. I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting.  See you next week with more  Topflight Stamps  inspiration. Here are the stamp supplies I used: Use code  F UNSTAMPING   to get 12% di

Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps - Slider Birthday card

  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 am now trying for the 4th time to publish that. Somehow my post offended Blogger/Google and they kept deleting it.....I now changed the header, after I got an email from them that this goes against their values....I wonder what was offensive about it. Can't figure it out....Maybe now it will stick around, we'll see....  You may be familiar with the new card kits that  Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps  carries in the store. They are fabulous!  For this card I used the sentiment from the new  Card Kit 5  and the stamp from the new    Card Kit 6 . Below you can see the details on the two new kits.  I used the big gingham background stamp to decorate the front of my card.  I stamped the alien on a piece of scrap paper and colored it with markers.

They are fabulous!  For this card I used the sentiment from the new Card Kit 5 and the stamp from the new    Card Kit 6 .

Used a stitched die to cut it and a regular die to cut a mat for it in pink.  The inside sentiment when you pull the tab is from the kit. But I also stamped on the tab. I did not use the tab that came with the kit, but cut one in pink and rounded the corners. The sentiment I used for the tab you can find   HERE .  Here are both new May card kits: Card Kit 5
