Pass The Geria-TRIX Cereal Please

Hi guys! I am having way too much fun with the new Crafty Pantry Box die set by Trinity Stamps. This little set is packed with creative possibilities, and I have already made three different cards with it. I’ll be sharing the other two soon, so stay tuned! And while I would love to claim full credit for the “Geria-TRIX” brand on the box, that bit of brilliance came from my youngest son. He is definitely my muse—always ready with a funny idea when I need one.

I was inspired to make this card by the sentiment on the Pantry Box Branding Basics Stamp Set.  To complete the theme of this box, I used some specialty cardstock which is actually very thin burlap.  I also included a little "fiber guy" using the die from the Fro-Yo Friends Die Set that makes the face on the cherry.  

The supplies that I used for this card are:

• Retro Diamond Pattern Layered Stencil
• Crafty Pantry Box Die Sets
• Pantry Box Branding Basics Stamp Set
• Fro-Yo Friends Die Set
• Tiny Bowl Buddy Die Set
• Simply Sentimental: Happy Stamp Set
• Simply Sentimental: Birthday Stamp Set

Thank you so much for stopping by.  I hope you have been inspired to make a Crafty Pantry Box of your own!

Just Add Sprinkles - Baker Bear

Hello and Happy Release Day!  Today I have a card on the hop that is featuring a few of the new products from the current Trinity Stamps Release.  

I fell in love with these little bears thought it would be fun to put the little bear on a wobbler to tie in the "sprinkles" theme.

For the background on this card, I used the new Sprinkles Letterpress plate with purple glimmer foil on a lilac-colored cardstock.  Once it was foiled, I cut it down to 5.25" x 4.0" and glued a piece of light brown woodgrain cardstock cut to .75" x 5.25" to the bottom.  Before I glued the woodgrain piece to the bottom of the card, I dusted up the edges of the lilac cardstock with a little Villainous Potion Distress Oxide Ink and dusted the woodgrain cardstock with Vintage Photo Oxide Ink. Next, I glued it piece of white cardstock that I cut with the Dainty Scallops Rectangles (A2) Die Set.  I glued those two pieces to a piece of pink cardstock cut to 5.5" x 4.25". 

My little friend and cupcake were stamped and cut from the new Just Add Sprinkles Stamp Set and Coordinating Die Set.

I used the following Copic markers to color them in:

• E50, E21, E23, E25, E29
• R11, R20
• RV21, RV04
• B0000, B000
• V04, V06, V17
• Y02, Y08, Y19

For the sentiment on the outside of my card, I used the new Simply Sentimental: Sprinkles Stamp Set and Coordinating Die set.  For the inside sentiment, I used the sentiment that came with the stamps set.

To put this card together, I popped up the cupcake on foam dots and added a wobbler to the back of my little bear.  The stamp set also has some tiny sprinkles to color in and die cut, so I added a few to the floor around my friend and his cupcake.  Such a messy little fellow!

This is such a sweet little set and while I had it out on my worksurface, I made another card that I will share at a future date!

Flutterbys and Blooms

Hello!  Today I have a card that I created with the new July Crafty Crew Kit by Crafty Stamp Co.  This is such a sweet little set of "flutterbys" and flowers.  While this kit has some really great patterned paper, I decided to use the included stencil to ink blend my own background.

A new thing in the kit is a Crafty Color Recipe, which lists suggested Copic Marker combinations.  I really like this idea because it is not only helpful for the newer maker, but there are times that I just want to color and I can just follow the color blends.

For the background, I used the Daisy Stencil with Distress Oxide Inks to ink two different pieces of white cardstock.  I then used an oval die to cut an opening so I could swap out the different colors.

The Copic Markers used are:

• E50, E51, E53, R20 - butterfly body
• BG11, BG13, BG15 - aqua wings
• RV00, RV10, RV13 - pink wings
• BV00, BV02 - lavender wings
• Y11, Y15 - yellow wings
• YG17, G21 - stems and leaves
• * the same color combinations were used for the flowers

I have a process video up on my YouTube channel if you would like follow along.  I have the link down below.

This colorful card would be perfect for a number of different occasions.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have an amazing day!
