Christmas bees with Kaja

November 12, 2020 / CATEGORIES - Cards, Winter Holidays

Hi there,

It’s Kaja from Kajcyika crafts and today I have made a cute Christmas card using one of the coolest animals out there — bees!

Take a look:

I started making this card by stamping out three bees from Honey bees stamp set in black ink. Then, I picked out some cute accessories and a Christmas tree from Winter Kobi stamp set and stamped it in the same black ink. I colored the images in using alcohol markeres in soft tones. Once I was happy with the colored images, I added some details using white gel pen.

Next, I started making the background for which I used soft yellow color that matches the bees perfectly and Studio Katia brushes. I put the color only behind the tree, so now it looks like the light is coming from behind the tree. I masked the bottom part of the background to get a nice snowy hill.

Next, I die cut the background out with the Scallop square die. This gave the background a nice finished looked. I also left the thin scalloped border around the edges which makes the background even more interesting.

The last think I added was the sentiment that reads ‘Holiday greetings’ and can be found in Happy snowman stamp set. I used black ink and I centered the sentiment on the white hill.

I then glued everything together using double sided foam tape and liquid glue.

Thank you so much for joining me!

Hey Everyone!

You know what I love? Slimline cards and the amazing scenes you can create with all the extra real estate! You know what I hate? Taking photos of them especially for Instagram purposes because they don’t fit nicely in the IG grid! Oh well, I guess it will be a love-hate relationship!

So enough venting, and let’s get on with this fun rainbow inspired CAS Slimline Holiday Card.

CARD DETAILS

To begin, I die cut two of the Slimeline frames using the DOTTED SLIMLINE – SET 2, the scalloped one from white paper, and the larger one from a silver glitter paper.

I then placed the scalloped frame in the Misti and did some repeat stamping of these darling twig trees from the HAPPY SNOWMEN stamp set in rainbow colors using Distress Oxide Inks.

Next, I stamped out the greeting by combining a few sentiments from the HAPPY SNOWMEN and the CRAFTASTIC stamps sets.

To finish off this pretty Merry and Bright card, I added coordinating rainbow pearls along the trees. See links below for the complete list of colors used.

I really love how this colorful card turned out. Plus, the best part was how simple this card was to make!

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

Snowman Slide by Tracey

November 11, 2020 / 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

November 10, 2020 / 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

November 9, 2020 / 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

November 8, 2020 / 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!

Let It Snow – Snowflake Card

October 28, 2020 / CATEGORIES - Cards, CAS, Winter Holidays

Hello Friends, Ilda Here. I hope you are having a wonderful week so far.

Have you had your first snowfall yet? Here in Edmonton, we have and it looks like it may be here to stay. So as the song goes “Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!” and as you can see it was my inspiration for today’s card.

CARD DETAILS

To begin, I began by blending out the background using the SNOWFLAKE STENCIL and a few inks from Ink On 3 with the INK BLENDER BRUSHES.

Next, I stamped out the SNOWFLAKES in a random pattern onto the background using a Sticky Embossing Powder and sprinkled the SPARKLE GLITTER to stick to the areas.

Now that the background was done, I then stamped out one of the cute snowmen from the HAPPY SNOWMEN colored him in using Copics, and then die cut him out using the coordinating dies.

To finish this Happy Card I repeat stamped the sentiment and then die cut it with one of the banners from the PEONY TRIMMINGS DIES, added some glossy accents to the button and the nose.

Hope this cute winter card inspired you today. Thank you for stopping by and until next time… Happy Crafting!

Hugs, Ilda

Rainbow color winter card

October 27, 2020 / CATEGORIES - Cards, Other, Thank You Cards, Winter Holidays

Hello everyone!

Today I have another winter card to share with you. It’s not a Christmas card, it’s a little note to say thank you using awesome winter stamps and alphabet dies, with which you can create any phrases you want, and combine with sentiment stamps.

How to make this card youcan watch here or on Studio Katia Youtube channel

To create this card I stamped a lot of different snowflakes from the Snowflakes Stamp set using distress oxide inks. On each stamp I applied 2-3 color of ink, I mixed yellow and pinks, green and mint colors. I cut out snowflakes with coordinating dies and paced them on the card paced.

Next I covered all the snowflakes with masking tape and cut out a rectangle panel using a big rectangle die with a round corners from DOTTED PATTERNS SET 3. To create a sentiment I cut out a word SNOW with an alphabet dies from silver mirror cardstock and I combined it with a stamped sentiment.

Have a great day!
