Snarky Pop-Tarts Card

It's time for another Crackerbox and Suzy stamps project!  I've had this idea bouncing around in my head for awhile, and it's so super duper easy.  I love easy!  I bet you do too.  You could make a ton of these lickity split.  For this card, I'm featuring the Pop-Tarts stamp.  It's also part of the Food and Drink sale going on this month.  Add it to your shopping cart before Aug. 1st to get an additional 15% off.

If you have some wonky nesting frame dies, they would work great for this.  However, I chose to simply use some DCWV papers and just cut my own wonky shape, to look like the shape of a pop-tart.  These are sized to layer onto an A2 sized card.  My kraft paper is adhered with my EZ Grand Runner and my purple layer is popped up with foam circles, as is my sentiment.

Grab some white acrylic paint and just dab lots of dots with a small paintbrush.  I sprinkled a touch of crystal glitter while it was still wet, but you can't really see the sparkle in these photos.  For my sentiment, I used my Misti to stamp and masked my center wording, going in later with a purple brush marker and directly coloring the ink onto the stamp.  Easy and colorful!

My girlfriends would totally "get" the sarcasm behind this sentiment!  Give this card a try.  You really can't mess this one up and you are going to love how easy and quick this comes together.  Don't forget the Christmas in July challenge that is currently going on.  I hope you'll enter!  There's a $25 GC up for grabs and you have until Aug. 14th.

Summer Coffee Love with Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps

Hey crafty guys and gals, I'm sharing this fun summer and coffee themed card today for 

Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps.  This month, food and drink themed stamps are on sale, so of course I had to come up with a project featuring my favorite beverage.  You guessed it, coffee!  I'm featuring the sentiment stamp, I Mean Coffee , and the Coffee Cup Heart stamp designed by my talented teammate, Tracy McLennon.

Before I talk about the stamps, let me share a couple of creative details about this card.

First, I hand drew a pair of clouds, fussy cut them and used as a mask on my card while blending my background.  I tore some paper and used the edge to blend waves onto my watercolor paper.

For my cup, I tore the bottom edge and used the edge to create a dark shadow and have my cup appear as if it's been embedded into the sand.  The ink colors I'm using today are Ranger Ink Distress Ink in Twisted Citron, Mermaid Lagoon, Fossilized Amber, Hickory Smoke (for shading my clouds), and Distress Oxide Ink in Vintage Photo for the sand.

This was such a fun card to create and surprisingly easy!  Give it a try!

The July freebie stamp, below, "Birthday Friendship", is yours free with any purchase.  Just be sure to add it to your cart before checkout.

As I mentioned at the top of this post, Food and Drinks stamps are on sale.  That means coffee stamps are on sale.  Woo hoo!  Check out the selection, here.

If you're interested in the stamps I've used today, you'll find the links below, in addition to the other items used to create today's card.  Be sure and visit the Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps blog for more inspiration.  Thanks so much for stopping by today.  Hope you're having a fun summer!  Terri

Card For Dad Featuring The Hedgehog Hollow June Kit

 Here's my first project for The Hedgehog Hollow design team and I'm featuring mostly products from the June card subscription kit.  This includes cardstock, dies and stamps included in the kit.  Let me share a few key tips on how this A2 sized card came together.

(FTC Disclosure: as an affiliate for various companies in the craft industry, I will receive a small commission for purchases made through my convenient affiliate links.  This does not affect your purchase price.)

First, I used my stamp positioner and positioned my black cardstock in the corner.  After stamping my steel cut background stamp with grey pigment ink, I picked up my cardstock, turned it clockwise 180 degrees and re-stamping the same image.  It gave a 3D effect that I really like.  Since it was pigment ink, I misted with my water mister to fade the color even more, blotted dry then heat with my craft heat tool to dry.

For my "Dad" sentiment, I cut the word 3 times with the white cardstock included in the kit, using my manual die cut machine.  Next, I glued all my layers together to give more dimension and popped up with thin strips of foam tape.  I also trimmed a piece of the heavyweight kraft paper include in the kit and cut with the pocket die, then embossed with a wood plank embossing folder.  The pocket die is larger than I wanted on this A2 card, so I simply moved the bottom edge of the die about an inch below the cardstock, to allow for a shorter die cut.   Or you can just trim as you like for your card dimensions.

My smaller sentiment was stamped with the LDRS Creative Raven hybrid ink that was included in the March subscription.  Next, I popped it up with foam circles onto a larger piece of white cardstock.  Ribbon trim and silver foiled black foam circles finish off the embellishments.  The foiled circles remind me of nails hammered into that kraft, woodplank die cut.  What do you think?

This is such a fun kit this month.  Alexandra designed all the stamps and dies for this kit which makes it extra special.  They are exclusive products, only to subscription kit members.  Don't forget, regular subscribers get a free bonus item each month.  The bonus item in the June kit is from the new Arabian Nights collection from Tonic (Copper Blush/embossing powder).

Did you miss my un-boxing video?  Check it out below to see all the contents included in this month's kit with over an $80 value!  It would really make my day if you subscribed to my YouTube channel and gave a "thumbs up" on the video.  Thanks!

Hop on over to The Hedgehog Hollow and check out the shop with details on becoming a kit subscriber.  Each month typically includes stamps and dies from top industry stamp companies, along with video tutorials and exclusive coupon codes.  I'm super excited about what's coming next month!  Don't miss out, join today!
