Sharkcuterie Board


 

Hello, crafty friends! Skip the snackle box—today we’re serving up a deliciously fun Sharkcuterie Board! I created this clever card with the new Sharkcuterie Board Stamp Set by Pajama Crafter Stamps. I’m not sure how these treats would taste, but they sure look fintastic!

To set the scene, I paired woodgrain paper with nautical-themed patterns and added a bit of jute beside the sentiment for the perfect seaside touch.

Take Me To Your.....Donut?


Oh my stars—could this be any cuter? Aliens cruising around in donut spaceships? Yes, please! This adorable new stamp collection from Pajama Crafter Stamps is called I Come In Piece, and it is serving up pure cosmic sweetness. These little extraterrestrial cuties look like they’re off to explore the Milky Way—or maybe making a quick pit stop to share an out-of-this-world sundae.

This background has been ink blended using Distress Oxide Inks in Squeezed Lemonade., Picked Raspberries, Carved Pumpkin, Tumbled Glass, Salty Ocean, Lost Shadow, Hickory Smoke and Black Soot.  Phew!  That is a lot of colors!  I also used two stencils by Trinity Stamps called Crater Layers Stencil Set and Moon Layers.  

My outer space pals have been colored with the following colors:

  • RV02, RV04, RV06
  • V04, V15, V17
  • B01, B02, B04
  • B0000, B000, B00
  • Y00, Y08, Y19
  • Y00, Y17, YR16
  • E31, E23, E57
I popped up each of the colored images on foam squares, to add dimension to the card.  It would also be really cute if the "spaceships" were on wobblers.  Can you imagine?

I do receive a small commission at no cost to you when you purchase from the above links.  I am very thankful and grateful for any purchases that help me to continue to create content for this blog.

I created this adorably spooky Summerween card with the Whimsy Stamps Limited Edition Summerween Collection.

I used the following Copic marker colors to bring these boo-tiful little beachy haunts to life:

  •  C1, C3, C5
  • E000, E00, E11
  • BVO1-ghost shading
  • B63, B66, B79
  • RV21, RV13, RV14
  • YG23, YG05, G05
  • BG10, BG23, BG45
  • YR31, Y38, YR16
  • Y00, Y04, Y08

Thanks so much for floating by today! I hope you were able to snag this limited edition collection before it vanished, because it is bursting with frightfully fun, sun-soaked Summerween magic!

Adventure Awaits

 


Ahoy, matey! Today I’m sharing an encouragement card I made with Adventure Awaits, a newer stamp set from Pajama Crafters Stamps. I love the ship with its pirate flag—it suggests strength and resilience. I chose sentiments that encourage the recipient to stay strong and keep going.

I wanted some dimension for this card, but I didn't want to just pop up the ship on foam dots and the image seam appropriate for a shake card, so I decided to frame the ship and sentiment.  I used an older die by My Favorite Things that cut two openings with the larger square opening up top.  

To keep the construction of this card "clean", I used the die to cut out 8 layers of 110lb cardstock.  I glued the layers together to create "wells".  I used the die to cut the patterned paper for the front and inner areas.


I used Copic markers to color the ship.  I matched to colors to the patterned paper as best as I could.  Once it was colored, I cut it out, applied 1mm foam squares to the back and centered it in the square openings.

This is a very quick and easy card to make.  I have a video up on my YouTube Channel if you would like to follow along:

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful day!
