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.

Birthday Cowboy

Vicky here today. I have a yippee yahoo birthday card to share.

It is pretty straight forward card. I stamped the barbwire in the background on a light tan piece of card stock. The cowboy was stamped on X-Press paper and colored with Copic markers.

I stamped Happy Birthday in the barbwire frame. The frame is big enough to stamp a lot of saying in it.

 

Hope you enjoyed the man card.

Father's Day Grill

Vicky here today. What does your husband like to do on Father's Day?

John likes to grill out. He does the grilling since he doesn't trust me, and I am not sure why since he has never let me, but I haven't really argued to do it either. But he likes to grill and have the kids over.

The apron and the stamp on it are two different stamps. We have 4 stamps for the apron.

These are copied from the wood blocks but you can get them in cling foam here.

Dad Sail Boat

This is another card that Currie made. She colored it with markers and added brads on the top of the sails. The black cardstock is distressed with Tim Holtz tool. Currie also used Distress ink around the edges of the image.

Hope you enjoy the idea.

Thanks for stopping by.

Happy Father's Day Jeep

Vicky here today. But Currie Churchill did the Father's Day card.

She stamped the tires and spark plugs with Distress ink. The background was inked with Distress ink also. Currie colored the brad. I like that the cardstock the image is stamped on is not square, I think it adds interest. Currie also used Distress ink around the edges on the green cardstock with the sentiment.

Birthday Card With The Road Master Car

Hi Stampers, Vicky here this week.

The card today is a birthday card for some special guy. I stamped the Road Master on Ex-Press card stock and colored it with Copic markers. I did color the chrome on the car with a silver pen. The image was cut out with Spellbinders, and then I sponged the edges with Distress Ink. I cut a dark red cardstock to back the image. I added the silver Nail Heads in the corners to accent the silver from the car.

I stamped the Birthday Banner, cut it out, and sponged the Distress ink on the edges of that, too. 

 

Smiles, Vicky

On The Way Train

This card I made for my husband for Father's Day.

I used  Crackerbox Palace stamps, I stamped it with VersaFine black ink. 

The train and background card stock is cut out from Spellbinder.

  I used Duster Brushes and Memento

brown ink to dust around the train. 

 I took the black Copic marker and colored around the

edge of the background card stock.

There are silver stickers on the edges but they are kind of hard to see.

Hope the Father's in your life have a great Father's Day.

Happy Father's Day in water

Here is the other one I forgot to post so it is also late, sorry.

The blue background card stock was embossed with the Cuttlebug embossing folder that is suppose to be branches.  I put VersaMark over the embossed areas and then clear embossing powder.

The image and saying are some of the new stamps from Crackerbox. I colored the image with Copic markers and cut it out.

The saying is cut out with Spellbinders and inked around the edges.

Happy Father's Day

I am so sorry this is a little late, I thought I scheduled it to post.

Well, if this gives you any ideas, just change the Happy Father's Day to Happy Birthday or Thinking of You.

These are some of our new stamps from Crackerbox Palace. I made something quick and a little on the plain side since that's what my dad said he prefers so I thought someone might also like a quick card.  The watch and knife were stamped, colored with Copic and cut out. I tried a punch at the bottom in hopes it wouldn't make it look to 'girly' and then used the silver dots.

I hope everyone had a great Father's Day!!!

Risky Bunny

Have you ever felt daring?

A little humor this morning.

Currie made this card 8X11 and the fold is at the top of the card.

The image is stamped on light green card stock 63/4 x 41/2. She stamped the grass in the background.

The truck and bunny was stamped and colored with Copic then cut out.

Currie also cut a strip of card stock for the road, inked it and distressed the edges with Tim Holtz tool.
Stamp the saying on the upper right hand corner.

Men especially find this card humorous, it would make a great birthday card for a guy.

Happy Father's Day King of the Grill

We have some new stamps for a fun BBQ summer at the Crackerbox Palace and I made this card from a couple of them.  We have a few sayings that you can use for the apron.  The one I used for the apron I also used with VersaMark for the back ground. The BBQ utinsiles were stamped and cut out to put in the pockets. I used Copic markers to color the hot dog and pop dots for behind the hotdog.
