Quirky Gone Fishing

Vicky here today to tell you about the challenge over at Quirky Crafts.
I think the design team did a GREAT job with all of their cards!!!
We are sponsoring the challenge and have prizes for 3 winners.
Their challenge is Quirky's Gone Fishing. Doesn't that sound fun!
 I hope you hop over and take a look and share your ideas of fishing.
If you want to check out the designer's blog, the links are there.
Here is what Cazzy says:
Hi it's Cazzy here and I am challenging you to Go Fishing with us at Quirky Crafts.
  I would like to see anything with fish, swimming fish or cooked, or someone fishing. You may also use pet fish, in ponds or bowls or anything that swims in the sea or ponds, or boats. I think that is a lot of creative possibilities.
Crackerbox Palace is so pleased with our examples she has put all of the fishing stamps used by the team on sale at 20% off - so go grab a bargain now!
Prizes:
1st place:  3 digital images of choice
2nd place:  2 digital images of choice
3rd place:  1 digital images of choice

Happy Anniversary to the King and Queen

Hi Stampers, Vicky here today. I have another new(ish) stamp in our collection today. We had a few female stamps that we made bigger. We wanted our women to stand out and they do. Here is the Queen Of Everything and her King Louie.
I stamped the purple card stock and then embossed it.
When we made this stamp, we separated the words~ Happy Anniversary and the words~ To a Wonderful Couple so you could easily ink them separately to stamp them where you want them.

Hope you enjoyed the card.
Friendly hugs, Vicky

It's Good To Be The King

Hi Friends, Vicky here today. With Father's Day coming up I did a CAS card.
We have some 40+ new stamps. John just pressed one of the plates and I had to share 2 of the stamps with you today.
King Louie talked (demanded, as kings do) to me and said he wanted to be the first to be stamped. Do you hear your stamps talking to you too? LOL. Well, he was inked and so was his saying. I made him into a Father's Day card here. He was so happy to be inked, I made 2 others that I will share later. Oh, our new Queen Of Everything is on one of the cards (she also was demanding  that she wanted to be inked too).
He is not on the web site, he is that new. You will need to email me.

St. Pat's Beer

Hi, Vicky here today. Well on to St. Pat's Day.
Valentine's Day is over so on to another fun occasion. Do you wear one of those buttons: Kiss Me I'm Irish? Or pinch someone who is wearing orange? OH I remember green beer many, many years ago.
Well, to the card. I sponged the background with brown ink on tan card stock. The saying is on our Poster. I did stamp it on darker tan c/s and then again on light c/s. I cut out the light and put it on the darker c/s so it looks like paper on the board. And sponged a little brown around the edges.
Colored the happy leprechaun with Copic markers, (but I didn't make the beer green).  
 
Friendly Crackerbox Hugs, Vicky

Kitty Cat Birthday


Happy Monday morning, friends. 
 Did you get some snow yesterday? We got a few inches here in WI. so I was able to go down to my stamping area and got some inky fingers.
This is one of the projects I got done. I used our Kitty Cat Birthday and our Sleeping Cat. I used Copic markers to color our cat.
I also used Elizabeth Craft 951-Tags, I cut more than one tag. I have dark green behind the lighter top layer of the tag.
 
  Thanks for stopping by and hoped you enjoyed the birthday tag.
Friendly hugs, Vicky

Crazy In Love

Hi friends, Vicky here today.  Are you crazy in love???
This card was made a couple of years ago. I posted this because it is a throw back from the days we used slide frames. This frame is an extra large one. I stamped the hearts on it and popped it up with pop dots.
Our Mad In Love stamp is colored with Copic.
If you notice, the couple are in straight jackets because they are 'Crazy in Love'.
 
Click on the image to go see the stamps.

Valentine's Day card with Crackerbox stamps

Hi, Vicky here today. I got back from CHA on Wednesday and will get the pictures straighten out and blog those this weekend. I saw a lot of new and exciting things so stop back and check it out.

But for today, I am posting a Valentine's Card.
I started the card with paper pieces I had on my desk just sitting there wanting to be used. I found the dotted piece big enough to cut a frame with a Spellbinder die and embossed it. The white piece is Ex-press paper and also cut with Spellbinder and embossed. I stamped our lady and colored her with Copic markers.
The heart was cut from Spellbinder heart die and embossed in both sizes. The LOVE is and embellishment I found in my stash.
The pearls were put on the front and back of the saying. I also added the pearls at the bottom of the image. When I bought the string of pearls, they were all connected together at one end. I cut 5 strings off of the bunch and they are attached to the bottom pearl, free to move.
Thank you for stopping by.
Crackerbox hugs, Vicky
