Rocket Raccoon With Attitude

Hey crafty friends!  Today, I'm sharing another card featuring the new release from Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps.  I colored Rocket, that cute raccoon from the Guardians of the Galaxy movie series, last week and shared the coloring process on my YouTube channel.  If you missed, it, I'll share it at the end of this post.  Rocket has a little attitude, as you've probably noticed.  With the Halloween challenge in full swing on the Crackerbox/Suzy blog, this card pays homage to Halloween yet lends it's ear to the snarky side as well.

I pulled a colored background that I had in my stash.  I had previously colored it with Ranger Oxide and distress inks and thought it was perfect for the season.

My sentiments are Good Witch or Bad Witch and Filthy Animal.  I'll be masking part of my 2nd sentiment as seen below.  I'm also inking my Raccoon and sentiments with Catherine Pooler Ink which is new to the online store.  Love these inks!  

If you haven't tried masking, it's simply covering up part of your sentiment and inking only part of your stamp.  I used washi tape to mask the wording that I did not want stamped.

I love the coverage that the Catherine Pooler Inks offers.  I stamped my image twice with these inks, using my mini Misti.

I hope you enjoyed this project.  I colored Rocket with a variety of brush markers and accented his fur with a white gel pen.  There's more on the coloring process in my 8 minute video below.   I hope you will subscribe to my YouTube channel.  Thanks so much!

Before you go let me remind you of a few things.

Don't forget to link up to the Halloween challenge.  It's so much fun and you have a change to win a gift certificate to shop at the online store.

Animal stamps are on sale this month as well.

We now carry Catherine Pooler Inks!  Yay!  You will love them, trust me.

Don't miss out on all the stamps in the new release including Harry Potter, Halloween, Guardians of the Galaxy, Sympathy and more!  Shop the new arrivals, here.  Be sure and visit the Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps blog for more design team inspiration!  See you next time...

New Release at Crackerbox and Suzy Stamps! Harry Potter, Gnomes, Halloween and More!

You heard it right, there's a whole lot of excitement with the Fall release here at Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps!  Several of our designers have created fun new stamps for your stamping pleasure but the buzz is all about Harry!  My teamie Tracy McLennon designed some fabulous Harry Potter stamps and Guardians of the Galaxy stamps, and everyone is gaga for them.  Olesya Andreyeva, fellow teammate, designed the Halloween stamps which work very nicely with the HP stamps.  I designed the small gnome stamps which work well with card making and also as planner stamps.  In addition, you will see new Pet Sympathy stamps and regular Sympathy stamps.  Whew!  That's a whole lot of awesome!  

Of course, we're having a blog hop so you can maybe win some shopping moolah!  I'll have the link and hop order below.  I'll be sharing several Harry Potter cards over the next week or so but today, I'm starting with the gnome stamps that I designed. (All the new release can be found, here)  

I jokingly refer to my gnomes as "Gnorman" and "Gnorma".  This comes as a 4 piece set called Gnome Family that also includes the small mushroom garden and gnome house.  I actually colored directly onto my mushroom garden stamp to get the single mushroom that you see below.

The sentiment I designed is called Gnome Sweet Gnome and I just think it is so sweet.  All my coloring is done with Zig Real Clean Color brushes today.  You'll find shopping links below.

I also used some of my dies to layer this hillside scene.

Please note, there is free shipping to USA addresses all weekend Aug. 11-12, 2018 until 11:50 pm on Aug. 12.  

There is also a free stamp of the month, so be sure and add it to your cart and type freestamp in the coupon code section at checkout.  This is free with your purchased order.

Animal stamps are 15% off all month.  Bonus!

Lastly (and we are REAL excited about this), we now have Catherine Pooler Inks!

I hope you will add these sweet gnomes to your collection.  They're so tiny and precious and would be fun to play with in your planners as well.  This is an A2 sized card and they worked wonderfully for this size.   I appreciate if you shop through my affiliate links below!  Now, on to the rest of the hop.......you'll find all the new stamps, here.
