Crackerbox/Suzy Stamps & Imagine Cross Promotion
Today I’m here with two cards for this fantastic Cross Promotion between Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps with Imagine.
I have been Design Team member of these two companies for several years and you know about my passion for both products and companies. If you are here from the blog of mega talented Steph Ackerman you are on the right way, if you lost – please check the hop list below.
The first card is made using two stamps, the Whimsy Tree and the sentiment Thankful, both available in Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps Store.
To create this card I used a combination of three types of Ink. For the Whimsy Tree and Thankful sentiment I used three colors of VersaFine Clair: Acorn for the Whimsy Tree, Fallen Leaves for the word Thankful and Pinecone for the word Blessed. Then I covered all the images with Clear Embossing Powder and activate the powder with the heat tool.
To create the background I used VersaMagic Ink on the lower part in two different tones Sahara Sand and Mango Madness and then I added Brilliance Ink in two different tones, Sunflower Yellow and Pearlescent Rust. All available in Imagine Store.
As final touch, I added three loops of Thick Backers Twine, natural and gold and tied a wood button and splatter with irRESISTible Pico Embellisher Gold. The card stock used on this layer was Whisper White card stock and I pasted the complete layer with dimensional or double sided foam tape over an Elegant Eggplant card base.
My second card is a Christmas Card. On this I also combined several stamps and another types of inks.
On this card I combined several of the Christmas stamps from Crackerbox & Suzy Stamps. I used the Pine Branch, the small Pinecone, the Dot Splatter and the sentiment Merry Christmas Brush.
I used Kaleidacolor Inks Fresh Greens to stamp the branches and then I stamped the pinecone in different parts of the branches using Delicata Ink Dark Brown and colored the Pinecones with Delicata Ink Celestial Cooper and a Fantastix.
For the Merry Christmas Brush Sentiment I used Delicata Ink Rose Gold and covered it with Clear Embossing Powder. It give me an additional idea that I will share with you at the end of this post.
I was satisfied with the result of my decorated layer for the card but to add a little more Christmas look I decided to use the Dot Splatter Stamp in some parts with Delicata Ink Ruby Red and splatter all the surface with irRESISTible Pico Embellisher Gold.
And here is my last step that I announced before. Using Memento Desert Sand with a Jumbo Dauber I added a vintage look and framed the sentiment just sponging the ink. I pasted the decorated layer over a card base Crumb Cake. Easy and quick when you work with the products that you love!
