Spiderweb Halloween Shaker Card with Ilda

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, Halloween, Shaker Cards

Happy Thursday Friends, Ilda here!

This week the Studio Katia Design Team has been showcasing Halloween Inspiration Cards. If you missed them click here to see more fun projects shared by our creative team.

For my card, I started off by laying the SPIDER-WEB STENCIL onto the background panel and then used a watermark ink to stamp over the entire area. I then removed the stencil and sprinkled it using black embossing powder to heat set the background.

Next, I die cut the center of the panel using the SPIDER WEB SHAKER die and then used a piece of an ACETATE SHEET to create the window for the shaker.

For the Happy Halloween that is die-cut on the inside of the shaker, I used the HALLOWEEN TRIMMINGS DIES and did some partial die cutting onto a piece of white cardstock that I then later blended out some distress oxide colors onto using the new INK BLENDER BRUSHES.

I then glued a few RIPE PERSIMMON PEARLS onto the shaker area and then added some SPOOKY SATIN CONFETTI to the center before gluing on the top panel to close in the shaker area.

To finish off the card, I stamped out the pumpkins from the MEOWY HALLOWEEN set, colored them in with Copics and then fussy cut them as I didn’t have the coordinating dies. I then added some cute  GOOGLY EYES to them and then glued them to the card front. I also added a few more RIPE PERSIMMON PEARLS to embellish this fun card.

I hope this fun Spiderweb Halloween Shaker Card in”spider”ed you today!

Thank you for stopping by and until next time… Happy Crafting!

Hugs, Ilda

Pumpkin card with Galina

/ CATEGORIES - Autumn/Fall Cards, Cards, Halloween, Hello Cards, New Release

Hello everyone! It’s Galina here. What do you think about alternative ways of using die sets? Sometimes I have crazy ideas like this one. I used

SIMPLE ROUND TAG and HALLOWEEN TRIMMINGS DIES to create a pumpkin face on my card 🙂
At first I made a “body”, I cut a card panel from watercolor paper and apply orange watercolor paint all over it, I add a lot of water to get nice orange gradient. After background is dry I add dark orange and brown stripes with a dry brush. Next I cut out a “smile” using order sentiment die and adhere a black stripe on a cardstock on the back of my card panel.
To create eyes I used two smaller dies from tag die set. I simply cut them from a brown cardstock and add a bit of shading with brown distress inks and blending brush.
To finish my pumpkin face I decided to add few leaves and swirls from another die set – SHAKER PUMPKIN DIES.
At last I attached the card panel on the green card base and my card is done.
Hope you like this idea 🙂
Have a great day!

Studio Katia STAMPtember 2019 Exclusive Stamp Set

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, News

Hello Everyone!

This month our friends at Simon Says Stamp and the whole crafting community are celebrating STAMPtember with many brands and Studio Katia is very proud to be part of this celebration as well with a brand new Studio Katia Floral Frame Stamptember 2019 Exclusive Stamp Set. Even though the stamp and die set has sold out quickly, the stamp set itself is still available at Simon Says Stamp! Don’t miss your opportunity to grab it while it’s still available, as it is a limited edition set.

Our DT Ladies created some amazing projects with this set, showcasing it’s versatility and beauty!

Ilda transformed this set into an amazing 3D bouquet, and by turning it with flower up she used the circle frame from the set as a vase. What a genius idea!

Kaja created fabulous card by colouring the stamp and adding bold lines in the background to make those intricate lines of the floral image and her beautiful colouring pop.

Emily turned this image into a super fun shaker card. And we all love those! Her fabulously coloured flowers look even more beautiful with that smooth ink blending and Studio Katia sequins in the background.

Laura added beautiful details to the floral image to make those flowers really pop on the white background. And what a lovely touch she added with Studio Katia dotted frame die and Arctic Breeze pearls.

Liliya also created a shaker card. You will like what she did here, especially if you don’t like to spend time on colouring or like to have different options. Since this image is very beautiful on its own, simply choose a bold colour of card stock and emboss it.

And don’t forget to watch great video tutorial from Crystal Thompson showcasing this beautiful stamp set:

Thank you so much for stopping by today! Make sure to not miss this stamp set while it is still available!

Have a lovely weekend!

You’re So Wonderful

Hi there! Emily Midgett here with you today! I have been itching to pull out my watercolors the last few weeks, but haven’t had much of a chance to play. I thought it was the perfect opportunity to pair some of the new dies with the lovely Blooming Bunch.

To start, I heat embossed the lovely floral bouquet from Blooming Bunch using silver embossing powder on some watercolor paper. I then used my Daniel Smith watercolors to add color in a pretty magenta, coral, and fuchsia color scheme. I fussy cut the image using my detail scissors.

Next, I cut an olive green frame using the Fancy Scallop Circle Dies. I adhered it to a deep fuchsia card base using foam tape, adding the floral bouquet over the top, also using foam tape.

I heat embossed a sentiment from Blooming Bunch on a rectangle of plum cardstock and added it to the card front. The final touch was to add some Arctic Breeze Pearls and Ripe Persimmon Pearls.

Well, that’s all for me today!

Shark-tastic Christmas with Kaja

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, Winter Holidays

Hi there,

It’s Kaja from Kajcyika crafts and today I decided to make a fun Shark-tastic Christmas card!

Take a look:

First, I did the background for which I used distress oxides in three colors: Tumbled glass, Broken China and Chipped saphire. Once the ink blending was done I used some clean water and sprinkle it on it to get some cool splatters. Then, I used white ink and the Underwater sun rays stencil to add even more depth to the bacground.

Next, I used Scallop oblong die on the ink blended panel to give it a nice finnished look.

I wanted to make a fun holiday card, so I decided to combine images from Jawsome and Winter Kobi stamp sets. I went with masking technique, so it looks like the lady shark is wearing Santa’s hat and the boy shark in bringing a Christmas tree. I added some other images from Under the sea stamp set as a scene builder and color everything in using Alcohol markers.

Then, I stamped ‘Holiday wishes’ saying from Holiday village stamp set on a piece of gray cardstock. For some extra texture and detail I added some Clear drops around the Ocean background that look as air bubbles.

The last thing I did was glueing everything together using Studio Katia glue and some double sided tape.

Thanks for joining me,

Kaja

Autumn Card by Dana

/ CATEGORIES - Cards

Hello, Studio Katia friends!

It’s Dana here and I’m back with a fall card today.

To start, I stamped Autumn Borders onto cold pressed watercolor card stock in black. I die cut it using Autumn Borders Dies at first and then trimmed it down as shown in the picture using paper trimmer.

I simply colored the images with watercolor paints and waterbrush and splattered some colors to watercolor panel.

After it dried, I stamped sentiment from Autumn Borders in brown.

I mounted woodgrain paper onto A2 sized white card base. Then, I popped up watercolor panel using foam tape. To finish off, I embellished this card with Gold Foil Pearls and Ripe Persimmon Pearls using Glue.

 

Hope you enjoyed this card. Happy crafting!

Spooky spell card

/ CATEGORIES - Autumn/Fall Cards, Cards, Halloween, Hello Cards

Hello everyone! Galina is here and here is my first spooky card with new pumpkin stamp set. For my card I used a part of large border image.

Now we have true autumn weather and it was little bit hard to capture beautiful green glow on the card.

I started with cutting a sentiment right on a card base and I colored letters with black pen. On the inner side of the card base I placed a piece of the orange cardstock.

Next I apply light and dark distress inks on the card base. I tried to make a spell swirl 🙂 You can draw a swirl with a pencil and then add inks.

I stamped few pumpkins, eyes and tiny candies, which IS colored with pencils. I fussy cut all images and adhere them on the card base. At last I add a lot of green Nuvo drops on the green swirl.

Hope you like this card! Have a great day!

Trick or Treat Trimmings Card by Ilda

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, Halloween

Hello, my friends and Happy Monday, Ilda here!

Have you seen all the inspiration from the Studio Katia Fall Release? If you haven’t click HERE and join the Hop! Make sure you also comment by the 20th to qualify for the Giveaways! Alright, let’s get on with this fa-BOO-lous Trick or Treat card today!

So the first thing I did was stamp out the image from the SPOOKY PUMPKINS TRIMMINGS set using Versafine Black Onyx ink and then heat set it with Crystal Clear Ultra  Powder. I then colored the pumpkin scene in with Zig Clean Color Brushes. Once the coloring was dry, I used the Trick or Treat die from the HALLOWEEN TRIMMINGS DIE set to cut out the letters. I then snipped off the connected top piece of paper with precision scissors.

To create the background I began by blending out the Mustard Seed Oxide ink in the center, then the Wilted Violet and finished the edges with Black Soot Oxide inks. To give it the stary sky look I splattered white pigment ink all over it.

To the background panel, I also glued a couple of webs that I die cut using the SPIDER WEB SHAKER dies and then used some Liquid Pixie Dust to add some sparkle to the black webs.

To finish off this card I foam mounted the Halloween Pumpkins along the bottom edge of the card and then added some glossy accents for some shiny details. For more bling, I also added some EXOTIC ONYX PEARLS from the new release.

I hope this card SPOOKY trick or treat card inspired you today. Thank you for stopping by and until next time… Happy Crafting!

Hugs, Ilda
