Let’s start Day 2 of our Blog Hop with this super card from our talented Rowena

To start I stamped my images on a Neenah solar white cardstock using a copic friendly ink. My images are then colored with copic markers and die cut using it’s coordinating die.

The background is created by blending a combination of picked raspberry and squeezed lemonade distress inks. I sprinkled some watered down squeezed lemonade and a bit of black ink to add interest.

To finish my card I added a sentiment from the same stamp set and added some star sequins to complete my card.

Here’s a fabulous project created by our designer Rowe na.

For today’s project I created a fun and simple watery background using one of the latest stamp from the new release ‘Mermaid For Each Other’ and coordinating die.

For my background I blended peacock feathers and blueprint sketch distress inks (its my go to colours when creating anything watery background) onto a watercolor paper. I spritzed some clean water to move the colour around, to create a loose watercolor look. Then dried it immediately using a heat tool. I did this a couple of times and drying it in between. I also splattered some clean water and with a paper towel picked up some of the excess water(after 30 seconds) to create a distress look. I also added some white paint and perfect pearls for added details to my watery background. I trimmed my background using the largest rectangle from the ‘Darling Ribbon & Dotted Frames‘ creative die. I coloured my images with copic markers and die cut them using its coordinating dies. I also die cut some hearts using red cardstock and added some glossy accent to the die cut hearts. I stamped my sentiment in black and that finishes my card for today.

Floral card | Galina Filippenko

May 11, 2018 / CATEGORIES - Cards, Floral Cards, New Release

Hello everyone! Galina here and today I want to show you a card with beautiful Japanese Peony Stamp Set.

I started by heat embossing a flower with white embossing powder on white cardstock and colored it using peach and mint colors of my Copic markers. I cut a rectangular panel out of ivory cardstock and die cut a window in it using the biggest die from Dotted Patterns: Set 2 to make a frame.

I die cut peony flower using coordinating die and foam mounted it onto a card base inside my frame. I let one of the flowers overlap the frame. I stamped a sentiment with brown archival ink and cut it using coordinating die. I afhered it to the biggest flower using glue dots.

Hope you like this card! Have a great day.

Glittery Starry Sky with Olga

April 28, 2018 / CATEGORIES - Hello Cards, New Release, Theme Week

Hello Studio Katia friends! Today I am sharing a card I made using Studio Katia Sparkling Stars Confetti Glitter. Don’t you love those tiny iridescent stars glitter? I am in complete awe with it! It can embellish anything with these stars!

I was inspired to make a starry sky background for the images from Whimsical Town Stamp Set. And I absolutely love the result I got. You can see every single star in the background which makes this town scene just magical.

I started working on my card by stamping three houses, a tree, a bush, a trash can, a mailbox and three clouds onto white paper. I colored all these images with alcohol markers and die cut them with Coordinating Dies.

To create glitery background for my card I wanted to do something special, something magical. First I ink blended a panel with pink and purple shades and die cut an oval out of it using Dotted Ovals Creative Dies. I wanted to make it look like a window, so I cut off a bit at the bottom.

Now time to do some magic! I covered oval panel with water-based glue and sprinkled it with star glitter. I let it dry and cleaned off the excess. So simple to make, but what an impressive look it created!

Next I foam mounted all of the images to create a town scene.
