Snowman Slide by Tracey

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, Other, Winter Holidays

Hi there, it’s Tracey here today and I have a Christmas card with the Studio Katia Slider Tag Die built right into the front of the card.

I blended a panel of Bristol Smooth cardstock with Distress Oxide inks using the Studio Katia Blending Brushes. I used Spun Sugar, Picked Raspberry and Seedless Preserves. I placed the Studio Katia Snow-Fetti Creative Stencil over the panel and applied a layer of Nuvo Moonshine Glimmer Paste. I lifted the stencil and sprayed Tsukineko Sparkle Sheer Shimmer Spritz all over the stenciled panel and set it aside to dry.

I used the Studio Katia Slider Tag Dies to create the slider mechanism on the front of my card. The snowman will pop up when you slide the tag up. The die comes in three pieces–the large slider which I cut from the stenciled card front, the slider message panel that I ink blended with Seedless Preserves Distress Oxide ink and the tag back which I lightly blended some Spun Sugar Distress Oxide around the edges of.

I stamped and Copic coloured some images from the Studio Katia Happy Snowman stamp set that I adhered to the slider panel so they will pop up when you slide the tag. Then I white embossed Merry Christmas from the Studio Katia Gift Tag Greetings: Winter set to the top of the purple tag so it will show when you slide the tag up. Then finally I stamped and Copic coloured a few of the snowman’s tiny treasures directly to the tag back, which I have facing forward, so they will display when you slide the tag up. Isn’t that so cute?

I added clear Wink of Stella to all of the Copic coloured images. Wink of Stella doesn’t photograph well but the recipient will definitely get to enjoy it.

Thank you so much for joining me today. I am really starting to get into the Christmas spirit and had so much fun creating this interactive card. I hope I’ve inspired you to do the same.

Slimline slider card. Video

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, Other, Winners, Winter Holidays

Hello everyone. Today I’m going to show how to create a super fun slimline card with a slider on it.

How to make this card you can watch here or on Studio Katia’s youtube channel.

I start by cutting out three card panels. I cut out a red and white panels using  DOTTED SLIMLINE SET 2 and the smallest, black panel I cut out using my trimmer, I cut it just a little bit smaller, so that tiny embossed dots are visible

I stamped a snowflakes on a black panel using white pigment ink. I stamped a bunch of images using Kobi’s Ice day and Winter Kobi stamp sets. I colored them with Copic markers and cut out with coordinating dies. I foam mount all the elements on the card panel.

To create a sentiment I used a pretty die from HAPPY PAWLIDAYS DIE set. I cut out 4 sentiments from a red cardstock and I adhered them together to get a nice dimensional sentiment.

Thank for stopping by!

Merry Christmas with Isha

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, Winter Holidays

Hello everyone! Isha here with you today with a Christmas card. I used the Rectangular Dots cover plate to add more texture to the card.

I started by stamping the Poinsettia border using antique linen distress ink onto neenah white cardstock and color using copic markers. I then stamped over the image again using versamark ink and sprinkled WOW! Gold Embossing powder. Heat set the image. Add some color to the outline of the image using blue pencil color.

Now, I used the Rectangular Dots cover plate and ran it through the die cutting machine. Cut the edges a bit of the panel. Flick some gold ink to the panel.

Stamp and emboss the sentiment onto the vellum stripe. Adhere to the panel. Stamp the word Christmas onto a stripe and adhere to the panel.

Adhere this to a red cardbase.

Thank you for stopping by!

Merry Christmas card with Olga

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, Winter Holidays

Hello crafters! Olga Moss is here. I made a Christmas card to share with you today. I played with three stamp sets: HAPPY PAWLIDAYS, SNOWFLAKES and POINSETTIA BORDER. When I saw these sets I thought it would be perfect to combine them together.

I stamped the super fun pet gang with gifts from the HAPPY PAWLIDAYS stamp set twice: on a piece of cardstock and the masking paper to cover my image while I work on the background. I ink blended the background with red, pink, green and yellow shades of inks. I also stamped a lot of snowflakes from the SNOWFLAKES stamp set. To add more texture I splattered the background with gouache.

Next, I removed the masking paper from the image and colored the animals. I also added heat embossed sentiments from the POINSETTIA BORDER in gold. I love these large holiday sentiments. I think they create a special festive mood on the card.

Next, I die cut out a slimline card panel using large rectangle die from the DOTTED SLIMLINE SET 1 and foam mounted the panel onto the light grey card base. To embellish the card I used SCARLET RED CRYSTALS.

 

Thank you so much for joining me!

Happy Birthday with Emily

/ CATEGORIES - Birthday Cards, Cards, CAS

Hello, crafty friends! I hope you all had a lovely weekend! Mine was super packed and busy but it was nice to have plans and get things done. Alas, weekends are never long enough. I’m sure you will agree! Plus, it snowed last night so I thought I’d make something bright and cheery.

I used the Party Balloons Stencil and Ink Blender Brushes with distress inks on watercolour cardstock to create the balloons. Then I splattered the panel with shimmer spritz for a beautiful shimmery confetti effect. I dried the panel with my heat tool before heat embossing the balloon strings in gold and the sentiment with sparkle embossing powder. Both the balloon strings and sentiment are from the It’s Your Birthday mini stamp set.
To finish the card, I cut a strip of gold glitter cardstock, adhering it to the left side of the card base. Then I attached the panel and embellished the card with Gold Sparkle Crystals.

Please visit me on my blog, Instagram and YouTube channel for more inspiration. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Gometric birthday card

/ CATEGORIES - Birthday Cards, Cards, CAS

Hello everyone, it’s Galina. Today I want to share with you a fun idea of making a simple geometric card using basic supplies. To create this pattern I used HALFTONE DOTS CIRCLE DIE set.

How to make this card you can watch here or on Studio Katia Youtube channel.

I have cut out a white card panel using a slimline die. You can work with regular a2 card panel. But I love to have more space to play with this technique and a size of slimline panel is a perfect to create a full geometric pattern. Next, I’m going to create my pattern with circles using HALFTONE DOTS CIRCLE DIES. At first, I m going to cut out a biggest circle on the top and the bottom of my panel.

On a white cardstock I applied different colros of distress oxide inks. I cut out thsoe patterns using coordinating circle dies from the same set. I foam mount them behund the panel.

I stamped a sentiment with black ink and using a beautiful birthday stamp set from SK Cardmaking kit. I cut it out with an oval die from SCALLOP OBLONG die set.

To embelish my card I add a few clear crystals.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Have A Super Day Card with Dana

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, Other

Happy Fri-YAY, everyone!

It’s Dana here and I’m sharing a galaxy background card today. Here is what I came up with.

I started by stamping Kobi from KOBI THE SUPER BEAR in black. I colored him in with Copic markers and gave some highlight with white gel pen. I die cut Kobi and other pieces for stars and speech bubble using KOBI THE SUPER BEAR DIES.

Then, I created galaxy background by watercoloring. At first, I lightly painted cold pressed watercolor paper with pink, yellow and purple colors. Then, I layered galaxy colors like navy and black from light to dark colors. After it dried, I splattered white pigment ink using paint brush here and there.

I took a speech bubble from first step and softly ink blended it with distress inks. I then heat embossed a sentiment from KOBI THE SUPER BEAR in sparkling silver.

I mounted galaxy background onto A2 sized white card base. Then, I trimmed down two rectangle strips from white card stock and popped them up using foam tape. I foam taped other pieces as well and finished off this card.

Hope you enjoyed this card. Thank you so much for stopping by and happy crafting!

xoxo,
Dana

Kobi says ‘Congratulations’ with Kaja

/ CATEGORIES - Birthday Cards, Cards, CAS

Hi there,

It’s Kaja from Kajcyika crafts and today I will show you a cute card featuring the one and only Kobi the bear!

Take a look:

I knew I wanted to use Kobi on my cards for a long time, so today I finally decided to use one and show you that you can easily use stamps all over the year even though the stamp sets is mostly Valentine’s day themed. I stared making this card by stamping out a bear from the Kobi’s hugs & kisses stamp set which is as said a valentine’s day themed stamp set, but can be used any time of the year! I colored the image in using alcohol markers and this time I went with gray colored bear.

I didn’t want my bear to hold a normal bouquet, so I stamped a pot flower from Potted plants and colored it in using alcohol makrers. Then, I die cut both images and the great thing is that the Kobi’s die cuts it’s hands out as well, so you can easily put the pot in his hands!

Next I made the background for which I used the Rectengular dots cover on a white piece of paper. I didn’t want to have just a plain white backdrop, so I used Studio Katia ink blending brushes and added soft pink ink over the dotted rectangles in the center. To make sure everything connects nicely, I also added the same ink over the actual card base to get a soft pink edge.

Then, I added a white oval from the Dotted ovals to the center of the card to ensure that my bear will be seen nicely and won’t get lost in the background.

The last think that I added was a sentiment that reads ‘Congratulations’ and can be found in the Peony trimming stamp set. I used a white card stock and black ink, so the sentiment can be read easily and has a bold look to it.

All the elements were done in no time, so the only thing left to do was to glue everything together using double sided foam tape and the liquid glue.

Thank you so much for joining me!
