Week 4 of our Anniversary Month

Hello Stamper!
So happy you are hopping our 4th week hop! I want to thank you for taking a look at the all of our designer's cards, they have worked hard this month to provide extra inspiration for you! We sure hope you have enjoyed this month.
Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps is giving away a $25 dollars gift card to each Blog Hop. You only need to hop along with us and comment in each blog. Hoppers must comment in all stops along the way!

Here is my first card, just a simple one because sometimes that all the time you have.

I did stamp the bench on white card stock and colored with Copic markers and cut it out. I thought it would take me more time to cut out than it did, actually it was very quick.

I almost made this into a birthday card with a rest, relax and enjoy your day saying.

I have 3 girls in Health Care and worry about them all the time. So decided to make some stamps for other stampers to say Thank You to any Health Care workers or any workers that you know that have to work at this time.

Here is a quick card with some of the stamps.

You can find them HERE. The Free Shipping applies until April 30th!

Feeling a little snarky today so these are my cards, you get 2 today.

I used Start With Men stamp. I masked the second half and stamped the first half on the upper part of my card.

Then I stamped Big Ed Head. I think this guy is so funny, I have used him a lot.

Stenciled the 2 corners with Catherine Pooler Ink.

To get some color in my background card, I used the same colors that are on my card for the edges. I didn't want the color smooth looking so I got messy.

Now for the second snarky card.

I love this crown! I think you might be seeing it on a few of our ladies.

This Throw on a crown saying could be used with many of our stamps.

This week, my card is pretty simple. Instead of masking the Minion, I stamped the crown and cut it out since it was an easy cut.

Hello!

I have 3 daughters in the health care world, a Nurse, Lab Tech and a Nurse Practitioner. So I am making cards for each of them. This is my first one.

I had John (Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps) make me a couple of custom stamps.

He made the scrub stamp and the heart stamp to fit on the scrub shirt.

This is the foam side of the stamp.

This is the rubber side of the stamps. The Laser rubber is gray.

I stamped the it scrub top on blue card stock and added some flowers.

I added the saying but needed to mask it.

I used this stamp.

But masked the word Moms! off the top

I added the heart last.

Hope you enjoyed stopping by! Take care, stay safe, healthy and happy!!

This week I have 2 cards to show you since you are taking your time to look.

The One Life to Live and our Lady with Coffee are 2 of our new stamps.

What I did with the saying is cut it to fit on the card this way.

The Happy Birthday Vertical stamp is about 4.25 and fits a card the long way just fine.

I cut it into a V.

With cutting it into a V, I can put it back together if I want to use it together.

To get the card stock to match the cup, I inked around the edges of the card with the same marker.

Happy Birthday Vertical

One Life to Live

Lady with Coffee

This card is nothing special, just fun. Bees always remind me of a nice summer day. Used corner punch and colored the leaves and Copic Markers to color it.

This is my Snarky Box Card for our first hop.

I am using some of our new release stamps. The first one is Birthday Fairy, and Background Swirl Set of 3. The other stamps that I used are Fairy Godmother, Fairy Dust and Wand. The two stamps on the side flaps are May Your Dreams Come True and Abry...Fricken...Cadabra.

I used a Card Box Kit from The Paper Cut.

The layout for the Box Card.

This is the stamp, Birthday Fairy.

This stamp will be stamped to on the front flap. I masked the Happy Birthday that will go on the back of the back flap.

I masked off the saying to stamp the Happy Birthday on the long card stock for the back of the box.

I put the Post-It-Note straight across the saying then butted up the card stock to the edge of the mask to I know that the saying would be straight.

I used just the Medium Background Swirl and the Small Background Swirl. These panels will be put on the bottom of the box.

OK, now we are ready to put it together!

Here is the box with the front flap up to see the bottom of the box.

All you need to add is the 3 strips to hold the cutouts.

I guess you need to get some Apple Fritters or some other sweet treats to get the box!

I cut 1/4 inch strips to hold the cutouts.

Stamp, color and cutout your images and then adhere them to your strips.

And HERE is the Box Card!

On side of the box.

The other side.

It did not take me very long to make this. All of the flaps are the same size and just lay them out and stamp. Glue the box together and put in your strips and add your cutout!

Many, many thanks for stopping by, I really appreciate it!
