Winter Wishes with Kristina

November 23, 2018 / CATEGORIES - Cards, Winter Holidays

Hello everyone! Kristina here and today I want to share with you Holiday card with cute Holiday Village stamp set.

First, I blended some distress inks onto white piece of cardstock. I used Cracked Pistachio, Peacock Feathers and Scattered Straw. After ink blending I splattered my panel with water and silver paint.

Next, I stamped the images from Holiday Village stamp set with black ink, colored them with copic markers and die cut with coordinating dies.

Next, I mounted the images on top of my panel with foam tape. Lastly, I embossed the sentiment in white on a tiny stripe of kraft cardstock and adhered it on top of my card with foam tape.

Hope you like my card and have a great day!

Our Home To Yours Holiday Card

Hey lovelies Tracy here with you today sharing a holiday card using the fantastic Holiday Village Stamp set.

I think this is one of, if not my favourite Katia Stamp set because I just adore all the houses and little extras.

I rarely created square cards, but when I do I try and reach for the Dotted Patterns Die set, like I have today.

I started this card off by stamping the elements and colouring them with Spectrum Noir Markers, I also added some white gel pen detailing and sparkle as seen below.

Whilst they was drying I created the background using Distress Oxide inks – Picked raspberry, Tumbled Glass & Broken China.

Once dry I added a heat embossed sentiment.

I then created the card base from Neenah Solar white card, and also die cut the Dotted Patterns Frame.

To add dimension I popped some foam tape to the frame and also the two smallest trees and then adhered the whole scene to the card base.

I couldn’t resist add some of the Iridescent Ice Flake Crystals to finish the card off.

Thank you so much for stopping by today, I hope you have a great day.

Happy crafting!

Holiday Village Card with Dana

November 21, 2018 / CATEGORIES - Cards, Winter Holidays

Happy hump day, everyone!

It’s Dana from Dana G.Crafts and I’m back with a holiday card today. Here is what I came up with.

To begin, I stamped Holiday Village images using brown ink and die cut them using Coordinating die set. I colored them with Copic markers and applied snow marker to some part of them and heat set them to make puffy snow. I white heat embossed a sentiment onto grey card stock as well.

Next, I pulled out cold pressed watercolor paper and watercolored background using distress inks. Once dried, I white heat embossed snowflakes and snow.

I die cut hillsides using Trimmings Borders and scribbled Glue along with each curves. I sprinkled sparkling embossing powder and heat set them.

After die cutting cover panel using Dotted Patterns Set 3, I arranged every elements and mounted them using Glue and foam tape onto grey card base.

Hope you enjoyed this card. Thank you so much for joining me today!

I start with creating a hill on my card. I used border die and cut a card panel in a half. On the top I applied yellow distress ink through the Light Ray stencil to create a focal point. Next I stamped and colored little house, trees and bushes with copic markers. I adhere them onto card panel with adhesive foam.

At last I heat embossed a sentiment on a blue cardsock.

Have a great day!

Christmas Cup of Flowers with Erum

November 16, 2018 / CATEGORIES - Cards, CAS, Floral Cards, Winter Holidays

Hi there everyone! Erum here today with more Christmas inspiration!

I have a habit of using non-Christmas stamp sets on holiday cards so today I picked up A Cup of Thanks Stamp Set and turned it into a Christmas Stamp just bu using the traditional holiday colours.

I heat embossed the stamped image in gold and then used distress inks to colour in the image. Once the watercolour was dry, I used the coordinating die to die cut the image. Then I started to work on my card front.

For that, I used a light colour wash to add a similar colour to that of the cup to my background. I also added white paint splatters as well as black paint splatters to it.

Then I stamped the sentiment from Poinsettia Trimmings Stamp Set and it officially became a holiday card! I added a thin strip of glitter tape onto a panel and adhered it below the colour wash panel to add bling.

In the end, I adhered all the panels on a red card base.

I didnt add any gems or sequins because I just loved how this one turned out!

I hope you liked my card!

Hello! Do you like shaker cards? I adore them! They rustle so magically! And today I want to show you a magical shaker card with the finest poinsettia!

I stamped poinsettia image onto a watercolor paper and colored them with distress markers. For the shaker window, I used a die from the Dotted Patterns set 3.

I added a lot of confetti stars and micro beads to my shaker. I glued everything together and added a sentiment. My card magically rustles and pleases the eye!

I also made a matching tag for this card using Bookmark Die and Poinsettia Trimmings Stamp Set.

I was happy to show you my work today and I hope you were inspired by it! Thanks for stopping by! See you soon!

Merry Christmas with Kristina

November 8, 2018 / CATEGORIES - Cards, Floral Cards, Winter Holidays

Hello everyone! It’s Kristina here and it’s time for a Christmas card! I used gorgeous Poinsettia Trimmings for my card.

First, I stamped the images from stamp set onto watercolor paper with clear embossing ink and gold heat embossed. Next, I loosely watercolored the images with watercolors. Once it was dry, I took my Prismacolor pencils and add the depth on some of the leaves and flowers.

Then, I die cut Merry out of gold cardstock and adhered onto my watercolored piece. I stamped Christmas onto tiny stripe of black cardstock with clear inks and gold heat embossed and adhered onto my panel with foam tape. I foam mounted my panel onto kraft card base and finished my card with sequins.

Thank you so much for stopping by and have a great day!

Merry Poinsettia Christmas Card with Erum

November 6, 2018 / CATEGORIES - Cards, CAS, Floral Cards, Winter Holidays

Hello there everyone!

Erum here today with a simple Christmas card for you!

My card features the Merry Poinsettia Stamp Set. I watercoloured this with distress inks. The only two colours I used were Aged Mahogany and Black Soot. All the stamping was second generation so that I don’t get a very hard, prominent outline. Next, I used the same inks to colour the images.
