Theme Week | Christmas In July: Day 1 with Svitlana

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, Theme Week, Winter Holidays

Hi friends!

Svitlana is here.  The theme of this week here at Studio Katia is Christmas in July and our Design Team will be sharing Christmas cards. It’s time to slowly start making holiday cards, isn’t it? Especially if you send a lot.

I’m a big lover of everything Christmas related and of course i love making holiday cards. And now, in July, when it’s so hot  – holiday cardmaking help me to survive the summer, given the hope that winter is coming.

Today I want to share a fun flamingos card today.

SUPPLIES:

Pink Winter Stamp Set

Dotted Pattern Sets 1 Die Set

I cut a stitched panel out of white cardstock using a die from Dotted Pattern Sets 1 Die Set and stamped three flamingos from Pink Winter Stamp Set onto it.

I added accessories to them and tangles them together with light strings.  Then they were colored with COPICs. With white gel pen I colored some lights. And stamped the sentiment in the bottom.

After that I foam mounted the panel onto a white card base.

Have a wonderful week!

Svitlana.

Merry Christmas – by Kristina

/ CATEGORIES - CAS, Winter Holidays

Hi Everyone Kristina here and I wanted to share another card I made using Origami Winter Clear Stamp Set.

This weekend we celebrate Orthodox Christmas and I wanted to share this card with you.

I used Ink Smooshing technique and distress ink. I stamped imaged on watercolor paper and used white embossing powder. To create a background I put ink onto clear acetate and sprayed it with water, then carefully applied it to the paper. Sprinkled a little bit of water and added Crystal Clear sequins.

Thank You all.

Let It Snow – by Kristina

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, Winter Holidays

Hi Everyone, Kristina here

I wanted to create a wintery scene because it’s been snowing non stop. I used a Happy Snowflake Stamp Set  On a watercolor paper I’ve stamped snowflakes and heat embossed with WoW White Pearl. Colored the snowflakes with brush using sparkling Lindy’s Stamp Gang. Added Winter Fusion and Crystal Clear Fusion.

Here’s a close up.

Thank You All for stopping by and have a wonderful weekend.

Holiday Cards by Olga

/ CATEGORIES - Shaker Cards, Winter Holidays

Hello, friends! Olga is here today. This is my first post on this blog and I can’t wait to show you three Holidays cards using Origami Winter Clear Stamp Set.

For my first card I used die cut Dotted Shaker Tag, filled shaker with Classic Christmas sequins fusion and seed beads.
On the side I stamped and emboss the tree. Colored it with Zig markers and cut it out. Adhered it all together and for the finishing touch I’ve added a tiny golden bell.

I’ve also made matching tags.

For my next card I die cut Dotted Frame and embossed with snowflakes. Blended it with distress inks.


And for the final touch added some sequins from Summer Fusion and Pink Winter Fusion.

For my last card I’ve stamped, colored and cut random images from the set. Blended the background with red Distress ink and added a few sequins from Majestic Fusion.

Another close up.

Thank You and Happy New Year!

Olga

Merry Christmas with Guest Designer Maria

/ CATEGORIES - New Release, Winter Holidays

Hi peeps!

This is Maria from Krumspring – I am so honored to be here, guest designing for sweet Katia. Her products pretty much rock, right?
I have 2 christmas cards to share with you.

I looooove this little reading fox from the brand new stamp set Foxes. I have put him on top of this pile of presents and then I wrote “jul” in the little subject space on the book. Jul means Christmas in danish. I imagine him sitting there reading Christmas stories or singing jingle bells.

I used the Christmas tree from Origami Winter and topped the card off with some snowflakes embellishments, lipstick red sequins and majestic sequins.

A little closeup so you can see the colouring and details a bit better.



For my second card I used the new Elongated Dotted Hexagondie and again the Origami Winter Christmas tree (I love that tree, lol). I also used the snowflake for that set, embossed it white and did some inkblending for the background. It’s very strong coloured ha ha..

As with the first card I also added some sparkles in the shape of Majestic sequins, snowflake embellishments and some clear heart drops.

Well that is it from me today – thank you for having me Katia !

Merry Christmas everybody.

Hugs

Maria
