I stamped and then colored the Crackerbox Stamps Fisherman with Copic Markers. Then I die-cut him out with an oval die, matted him with some blue cardstock, and adhered him to the front of my card. Then I stamped the Crackerbox Stamps Fishing Worm On Hook and colored him in with Copic Markers, and fussy cut him out. Then adhered the worm so he looked like he was hanging from the fishing pole of the Fisherman. I used a black marker to draw the fishing line so there was no gap between the hook line and the pole line. For the sentiment, I used Crackerbox Stamps Fishing Problem, and for the inside of my card, I used Crackerbox Stamps Father's Day Freehand.

I used the Creative Embellishments 2023 Chipboard Shaker Set and painted all the chipboard pieces. I used blue acrylic paint, but you can paint them any color to match your graduates school colors. Once all pieces were painted, I adhered two layers of the chipboard shaker pieces together and adhered them to the solid back chipboard piece. Then I added some black and gold shaker pieces, and then adhered the acetate piece, and then adhered the final chipboard of the shaker over the acetate piece. I used some gold thread, made a mini tassel, and tied it to the shaker. On my card base, I added some Rinea Gold Foiled Paper and then adhered the shaker to the front of my card. To finish it off, I add a few Gold Confetti Sequins.

To create my card, I first stamped the Crackerbox Stamps Grinch Hand, and even though this is the hand of the Grinch, coloring it black and white transformed it into The Cat in the Hat hand. I then used some masking paper to mask off the fingers of the hand and then stamped the Crackerbox Stamps Stacked Coffee Cups. Next, I masked off the top of the cups and stamped the Crackerbox Stamps Fish Snooper so he looked like he was in the top cup.
I stamped the Crackerbox Stamps Too Much Morning sentiment stamp. Then colored in all the images with Copic Markers and airbrushed some blue using my Copic Markers along one side of the card.

Happy Day 420 Card

 Happy 420 Day! Since today is 4-20, I decided to create a slimline card for the occasion. This is not my normal type of card, but since I had the stamps, I figured why not.

However, I will earn a small commission when you click on my link and purchase from them. Thank you, and I appreciate your support!

I first created my background by randomly stamping the Crackerbox Stamps Pot Leaves. There is a Small Pot Leaf and a Large Pot Leaf, or you can get them as a set with both Pot Leaves. I used VersaFine Clair in Green Oasis to stamp the leaves. Then using my computer, I made a large 420 and then printed it out in green on some white cardstock.
Next, I stamped the Crackerbox Stamps Happy Day stamp using VersaFine Clair in Nocturne in the middle of the 420. I cut the 420 down and matted it with some yellow cardstock, adhered it to the pot leaf background I made, and then matted that with yellow cardstock and adhered it to my card base.

All of Crackerbox Stamps Remember the 60's stamps are 20% OFF until April 23rd.

Flag Banner Shaped Graduation Card

  Hello! Today I am sharing a flag banner shaped graduation card. The card can be customized to whatever the graduate's school colors are. The school colors for the card I made are blue and gold, so that is what I used.

Some of the products I have used in this post have been provided to me by various companies. The opinions I share are solely my own. Affiliate links may be used where possible at no cost to you. However, I will earn a small commission when you click on my link and purchase from them. Thank you, and I appreciate your support!

I used a jumbo Nested Flag Banner Die Set with navy blue cardstock folded in half to create the card base. I left the top edge of the die hanging over the folded area of the card so it did not cut there and left a hinge for the card to open. I then die-cut out some smaller flag banners, one in gold foiled paper and two in white cardstock. I stamped the Crackerbox Stamps Your Future Is Golden sentiment on one of the white pieces. Then stamped the Crackerbox Stamps Graduation Cap and Crackerbox Stamps Diploma Scroll on some scrap pieces of white cardstock, colored them in with Copic Markers, and fussy cut them out. I used some glitter markers in gold and blue to color the tassel on the cap and ribbon in the scroll. Then flicked some of the glitter ink onto the front of the card front with the sentiment on it. Matted the card front with the gold foiled paper banner, adhered it to the navy blue card base, and added some confetti sequins.

I adhered the other white flag banner I cut out to the inside of the card and stamped the Crackerbox Stamps Congratulations Snarky sentiment on it. My card fits perfectly into an A2 size envelope.
