Christine's Easter Bunny Card

Vicky here today. Christine made this card over at Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers for their Easter challenge. I think this is a great card. It is bright and cheerful with one of our funny bunny stamps.

Here is her blog, hope you hop on over and check it out. http://www.chrispyscreations.blogspot.com/

This is what Christine writes:

Love this bunny stamp! It just speaks to my snarky heart! LOL! I hope that you get a chance to play along with the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers for the Easter challenge.

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.

 

   Thanks for stopping by!

Crackerbox hugs, Vicky

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
