Clean and Simple Card with Erum

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, CAS, Floral Cards

Hi everyone! Erum here today and I have a new CAS card to share with you featuring the You’re So Sweet Stamp Set.

I started by stamping the image with fadeout ink for no-line colouring. To colour, I used artist markers. I kind of lost the flower shapes of the two flowers at the top and I blame it on my migraine medication since I am feeling too woozy to do anything nowadays.

I added some ombre ink blending for interest and stamped my sentiment. For added interest, I added fine black paint splatters and a green cardstock strip along the width of the panel.

To finish, I mounted the panel onto a card base with foam tape.

I hope you liked my card. See you soon!

A Cup of Thanks

/ CATEGORIES - Coffee Cards, Floral Cards

Hi there! Emily Midgett here with you today sharing some pretty peachy inspiration using the lovely Cup of Thanks stamp set, some Copic coloring, and some light ink blending. Let’s get started with the details!

I began my project by stamping the main image from the Cup of Thanks stamp set on some white cardstock using Copic-friendly black ink. I used a pretty pink, peach, and coral color scheme to add color and shading to the images, also adding a few rose gold polka dots to the teacup itself.

I die cut a Thanks from the coordinating Cup of Thanks die set using black card stock, as well as a white dotted oval from the Nested Oval set. I stamped the greeting from Cup of Thanks on the oval after adhering the floral arrangement to the bottom.

After arranging my die cuts, I used blending brushes to blend a light peach around the edge of a white card base. I adhered the die cuts to the blended panel using foam adhesive, then added a few Onyx Crystals for some sparkle!

Well, that’s all for me today. I received my parcel with the new release products just a bit ago, and I can’t wait to dive right in! I hope you’ll check out all of the fun new goodies! Thanks so much for stopping by today, and have a marvelous day!

Halloween Scene Card with Laura

/ CATEGORIES - Other

Hi everyone! It’s Laura here, and today I am here to share with you a fun Halloween scene card and a video tutorial which shows how to make it.
The stamp sets I used are  Monster Bash and Whimsical Town. All the images were stamped with black hybrid ink by Scrapbook.com and colored with Spectrum Noir Aqua markers.
Once the coloring was over, I die cut them with the coordinating dies.

I then started creating my scene. I die cut some light blue cardstock with the rectangle die in the Dotted Patterns Set 3 dies to create my sky. I blended some Distress Oxides over the panel to add darkness and create a night sky.
I created some clouds with white pigment ink and a stencil I created by die cutting some white cardstock with the cloud die in the Sky Set Borders. To finish off the sky, I added some stars with my Gansai Tambi  Starry Colors and a small paintbrush.

For the road and the hill, I die cut some gray cardstock with the Dotted Patterns Set 3 dies first, and then with the Simple Dotted Borders. I added some shading with Distress Oxide in Black Soot.
I mounted everything on a black card base, that I die cut with the Darling Ribbon and Frames dies. The moon was created out of yellow cardstock with the Sky Set Borders.

I heat embossed the sentiment with white embossing powder over black cardstock and rounded the corners of the sentiment banner with my Corner Chomper. I finished off my card with some details added with a Spectrum Noir Clear Overlay Pen, a white gel pen and some Glossy Accents.

And that’s it for today! If you liked this fun Halloween scene card and want to see how you can create it too, make sure to watch the video down below! And don’t forget to subscribe to the Studio Katia channel for more cardmaking and papercrafting videos!

Have a wonderful day

Floral greeting card with Kaja

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, Floral Cards, Other

Hi there,

It’s Kaja from Kajcyika crafts and today I have prepared a floral greeting card for you!

Take a look:

I knew that I want to create a card with white-on-white background, so I first die cut the background using Grid cover die. Then, I used the same white paper and die cut a heart using Shaker card die. I only decided to use the outside two die cuts and I made the inside of them dark blue.

Next, I stamped and watercolored the Floral wreath image, but insted of using it as wreath I fussy cut it out in three pieces.

Then, I stamped out the ‘hello’ from the same Floral wreath stamp set in black ink. I wanted to use it in the center of the heart, so I fussy cut it out.

I felt like something is missing, so I added some white dots using Nuvo drops.

Once I was happy with how everything looked, I glued it together using foam tape and Studio Katia glue.

Thank you so much for joining me!

Balloon Birthday Cards with Ilda

/ CATEGORIES - Birthday Cards, Cards

Hello Studio Katia Friends, Ilda here!

Today’s post is all about balloons and birthdays. Not sure about you all but I find my birthday card stash is always on the low side so I thought I would share 3 easy-ish cards that you could make fairly quickly.

For this first card, I started by die-cutting the SHAKER BALLOON DIE out of cardstock scraps in rainbow colors. I also die cut an extra balloon out to use to add the white highlight to each balloon by using the edge of the balloon to blend a highlight using a small blender brush.

The next thing I did was arrange the balloons onto the card base and temporarily adhered them. I then picked out some birthday stamps from stamp sets I had that would fit nicely onto each balloon and then used a stamping positioner to ensure I would get a great impression. See the supply list below for links to the stamp sets I used.You can also refer to the next image.

Once my stamping was complete, I popped up some of the balloons using foam tape and trimmed anything that hung off the edge of the card. To the bottom balloons, I added the cute little die cut bows and then topped them off with APRIL CRYSTALS.

This next card was super simple to make. I actually die cut the balloon this time out of white cardstock and then just used red Copic Markers to color it in. In hindsight, this was more time consuming and it would have been quicker to die cut it from a red piece of cardstock. I then used the HEART- FETTI stencil to add the little hearts to the balloon using white pigment ink.

For the clouds, I used the SKY SET DOTTED BORDERS and then used the die cut cloud piece as a stencil to lightly blend out the clouds in the background. To finish the card, I added some white thread behind the balloon before popping it in place and then glued a bow to the base of the balloon. I then stamped out the Make a Wish from the KOBI MAKES A WISH set.

For my last card, I wanted to play with watercolors. So I used the BIRTHDAY BALLOONS DUO STENCIL to guide areas that I was painting. I began by painting the purple balloons first, then the blue and lastly the green. I used the paintbrush loaded with a lot of pigment initially to add trace out the border of the balloons and then I would lift off the stencil and color them in adding a very little pigment in the center of the balloons to leave a highlight. I waited for each color to dry before moving on to the next color. I then used the same watercolors to add some splatters over the entire panel. Once it was dry I trimmed it to add to the card base.

The next thing I did was stamp out the Happy Birthday to You! from the IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY on the center of the balloon panel and embossed it white. Well, that really didn’t show up much… So to save this card I restamped it. I placed the panel back into the positioner, restamped it with watermark ink and used a black embossing powder this time. I repeated this step again as the first layer of black mixed with the white and left an uneven color. Sometimes mistakes happen and that is why the edges of the center stamp are kinda blurry. I didn’t mind it too much as it kinda worked with the messy watercolor effect on the balloons.

To finish, I glued a few sequins to match the colors of the balloons.

Hope you were inspired by these Balloon Birthday Cards today. Thank you all for stopping by and until next time… Happy Crafting!

Ilda

Birthday Wishes Card by Isha Gupta: Copic No-Line coloring

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, Floral Cards

Hello everyone! Isha here sharing a summer theme card using no-line copic coloring technique.

I started by die-cutting a white layer using the Scallop Hearts Cover Die. I then sponged yellow distress ink to it. Now, I put the Heart-Fetti Stencil over it and sponged the same ink. I stamped the floral cluster from Aloha Stamp using Antique Linen distress ink and colored it using copic markers. I really like how pretty these florals look. I then added some depth using colored pencils. Stamp the sentiment to the panel. Adhere this panel to a white cardbase. Adhere the florals to the card.

To finish, I added some Sunny Topaz Crystals. This is a beautiful mix of yellows .Thank you for dropping by! Have a nice crafty day!

Birthday Card with Dana

/ CATEGORIES - Birthday Cards, Cards

Happy Tuesday, everyone!

It’s Dana here and I’d like to share birthday card with you today.

To start, I stamped Birthday Balloons-Horizontal images onto the top and the bottom of A2 sized britol paper. I used black hybrid ink for the images.

I then watercolored balloons using Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers with waterbrush. I used No.031 Cobalt Blue and No.042 Turquoise Green colors. For some of them, especially golden balloons, I used Prima Marketing Metallic Accents with water.

Once they dried, I gold heat embossed a sentiment from It’s Your Birthday. To finish off, I splattered black and gold inks here and there as shown in the picture.

Hope you enjoyed this card. Happy crafting!

 

Underwater card by Galina

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, CAS, Other, Valentines Day Cards

Hello everyone! It’s Galina with you today and I want to share with you summer nautical card. I used small stamp set with mermaids and shell die.

I start with cutting few card panels one from dark blue cardstock and one from white cardstock. On the white card panel I applied blue, dark blue and violet colors of distress inks and then I add splashes with water.

In same way, I create a background for a shell. but in the end I decided to add dark blue stripes through the wave stencil. So, I cut out two shells, one from colorful panel and one from white cardstock and mixed negative die cuts.

Next I stamped and colored mermaid couple with watercolor markers. I foam mount shell and stamped image in the centre of my card.

At last I embellish my card with transparent bubbles. To glue them I used strong liquid glue from Studio Katia.

Thank you for stopin by!

Celebrating You with Erum

/ CATEGORIES - Birthday Cards, Cards, CAS, Floral Cards

Hi everyone! Erum here with a clean and simple card to share featuring the Japanese Peony Stamp Set.

I started by stamping the image in alcohol marker proof ink on Crest Solar White cardstock. Next, I used pink, red, deep maroon and peach to colour my flower from dark to light. I fussy cut the flower out and set it aside.

Next, I cut out a panel and added some black paint splatters onto it. To this, I adhered the floral image with glue and cut off the excess from the sides.

I stamped a sentiment on the card base from the It’s Your Birthday Stamp Set. And then mounted the flower panel onto it with foam tape.

I wanted to keep this card super simple so that the flower stays the focus and star of the card.

I hope you liked my card! See you all soon!
