Popcorn Wrap for Christmas

Would you like an idea for a small gift for a co-worker or friend? Ruth came up with a great idea to show someone you are thinking of them. It is quick and easy.
Ruth used red and white stripe card stock for the wrap. The pine greens are a punch.
The popcorn has white applique on it to look like popcorn.
 
 The saying is under the flap.

 
Thanks for stopping by.

Get Well Hen

Hi Crackerbox friends,
Thanks for stopping by! Here in WI. we will be getting some nasty weather this week so I thought I would post a get well idea. I hope you and your friends and family stay healthy but if you need a get well card, here is a sample.
 
Betty Hen and the saying is on sale for 25% off until Sunday, Nov. 16th.
So the price for Betty on cling is only $6.20 or if you like just rubber that is down to $4.55!
The price for the saying on cling is down to $3.60 and just rubber is down to $2.70. WHOOOHOOO
How great is that?!?
 
Don't let the size of the card startle you. She does fit onto a A2 card. I made this card to fit into a legal size envelope.
Betty was stamped and colored with Copic markers. The straw looking stuff is raffia. Not to much more to say, it's a simple card but hope you liked it.

Mad about you Valentine

Vicky here today. I thought I would do a Valentine's card for a guy. Since it was for a guy, I didn't want to add anything frilly. I try to stay with colors guys might like, and no frills.
As you can see the 'Mad about You' fits since this couple are in straight jackets, a little humor. I also used clear lacquer on their eyes and teeth to make them a little shinny. They were colored with Copic markers.
This is the wood mount stamp, I didn't use the hearts on the stamp, I cut out the image without them.
I used the Cuttlebug die from years ago for the heart.
This is the inside of the card. I used more of the hearts from the die cut. And a little more humor...'main squeeze', (in the straight jacket).

Marriage card from stamper

Vicky here today. We received a card from a stamper who used a couple of our stamps. I have to apologize for not posting this as soon as I got it, I took the picture and brought it into CorelDraw to get it ready to post but never got it on the blog. So here it is today!
I want to thank the stamper for sending us the card, we appreciate it. She used our chicken and saying on the inside of the card.
I have to guess on the technique. So I am guessing that the chicken image is stamped on a glossy piece of card stock that a marbled technique was used. The marbled technique is sponging alcohol inks on the glossy card stock. The background looks like the chicken wire was embossed with a embossing folder and sponged ink over the embossed area. I am not sure about the words, if she stamped each letter or if it is a stamp, but I like it.
The inside looks like the same marbled technique. I like that she added a feather, it adds to the humor.
I want to thank the stamper again for sending us the card.
I hope you have enjoyed the card as much as we do.

Fun cards from Suzy

I have some card to share with you.
Suzanne is a stamper I met when we were in Mesa, AZ. Since then she has shared some cards with me that she has made. It has been so much fun, Suzy has such a good sense of humor. I remember her smiling and laughing when she was at our booth and she likes to share the smiles by the cards that she makes.  Her line of cards are 'So Suzy' and she calls them 'snarky' which I think is a great description for them.
I wanted to share this one first since it is so bright. (I hope she doesn't mind I am sharing this) Suzy wrote to me:  I figured having some bright and cheeriness in December would be a good thing.
And isn't she right? This is just one card she will be doing in her class tomorrow.
To check out her fb page go here.
The stamps she used on the outside of her cards are not Crackerbox's stamps, but the saying she used on the inside is.
 Here are some more cards that she has made.
To check out how she made the background with Liquid Pears, check out her fb page.
The inside of the card. All of these images are Crackerbox Palace stamps.
Here is another great card. We have the fisherman, but the single fish are not ours. I think any guy would like getting this card.
I hope you have enjoyed the card Suzy made, I certainly  have.
