Poinsettia Shaker Card with Dana

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, Winter Holidays

Hello, everyone!

It’s Dana from Dana G.Crafts and I’m back with holiday shaker card today.

To start, I stamped Poinsettia Trimmings image onto white card stock using embossing ink and heat embossed it with red embossing powder.

I colored flowers with Copic markers and fussy cut it using scissors. I applied Nuvo Crystal Drops Simply White to some part of them as well.

Next, I started to make a shaker like snow globe. I die cut a shaker window using Dotted Patterns Set 3 from kraft and white card stock. I added clear acetate and foam adhesive to it and prepared Holiday Cheer Confetti and Classic Christmas Confetti together in a triangle tray.

For shaker background, I pulled out bristol paper and ink blended it with Tumbled Glass and Bundled Sage Distress Oxide Inks. Then, I built a shaker by arranging prepared ones onto A2 sized white card base.

I white heat embossed a sentiment from same stamp set onto green card stock and trimmed down and popped up as shown in the picture using foam tape. As a final touch, I splattered white ink using spray here and there.

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

Poinsettia Christmas card with Kaja

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, Floral Cards, Winter Holidays

Hi there,

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

Take a look:

Watercoloring makes me calm, so I stamped out the whole background using the Poinsettia trimmings stamp set and started coloring. It took me more than half an hour to color everything in but it was worth it! For the coloring I used ZIG watercolored markers and a water brush.

Once everything was colored, I took the rectangle from the Dotted patterns set 3 and I die cut my background with it. The die gives a beautiful dotted edge along with rounded corners which makes the background even more gorgeous.

Next, I took some vellum and die cut an oval out of it using the second biggest die from the Dotted ovals stamp set. I used vellum because I didn’t want to cover too much of the background I spent so much time coloring. 🙂

Of course I also needed a sentiment and I decided to go with a ‘Merry Christmas’. I stamped out the word ‘Christmas’ from the Poinsettia trimmings set in black ink and for the ‘Merry’ I used the die that is included in the Merry poinsetta coordinating dies.

I used the Studio Katia glue to glue everything together, the only thing I popped up with some foam tape was the word ‘Christmas’. I was really carefull with glueing down the vellum since I didn’t want the glue to show through it.

The last thing I added was some clear drops around the sentiment and that finished off the card!

That’s it for today, hope to see you again soon!

Merriest Wishes with Rubeena

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, Winter Holidays

Good morning, Studio Katia friends! Rubeena here with a watercolored holiday card using Poinsettia Trimmings. Have you started on your holiday cards yet? This would be a great set to use if you enjoy coloring flowers.

I started by stamping the images on watercolor paper in different angles with black waterproof ink. Then I used my Daniel Smith Extra Fine Watercolors to watercolor. I added some green shadows around the images to give the illusion of greenery.

I stamped the sentiment using the waterproof black ink. I added some Iridescent Crystals in the center.

I hope you were inspired to create today. Thanks so much for stopping by! 🙂

Vellum Shaker with Laura

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, Shaker Cards, Winter Holidays

Hi everyone! It’s Laura here, and today I am back with a winter vellum shaker card, created with the beautiful Holiday Village stamp set. As a first step I stamped my images on Bristol Smooth cardstock and colored them with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. I then cut them with the coordinating dies.

I then created some hills with the Trimmings Borders and added some shading to them with Distress Ink in Tumbled Glass. To add some interest and some sparkle I coated the hills and the snow on the houses with my Spectrum Noir clear overlay pen. I really love the look of glitter on a winter scene!

For my shaker front I cut some white cardstock using dies from the Darling Ribbon and Frames set and the Dotted Scallop Oblong set.  I theb did some ink blending on my shaker background with Distress Inks in Worn Lipstick, Shaded Lilac and Broken China. The embellishments I used to fill in the shaker are the Majestic Sequin Mix, the Crystal Clear Sequin Mix, the Clear Dust Seed Beads and the Iridescent Dust Seed Beads.

For the shaker window I used vellum instead of acetate. I wanted to go for a different look, and I think vellum works really well for this winter scene, as it gives a bit of a frosty look to it. I stamped the sentiment from the Holiday Village set using Distress Oxide in Stormy Sky and, for a finishing touch, I glued a few  Iridescent Ice Flakes to the card front.

And that’s it for today! I really hope you enjoyed this post, and I hope I inspired you to create with the lovely Holiday Village stamp set!

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

Winter Fairy Tale with Svetlana

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, Winter Holidays

Hello, everyone!

We are increasingly embraced by the winter mood and the mood of magic!

So I have a winter, snowy card with cute, awkward penguins. Winter, night, moon. The penguins are ice skating. Romance!

To create this card, I took two winter sets of stamps from the new release. These are the magic houses “Holiday village” and cute penguins “Kobi’s ice day”. I cut out the background with help of cutting die “Dotted patterns set 3”.

I added some sequins for accents.

Hope you like my card! Thanks for your attention!

Halloween Card with Dana

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, Halloween

Happy Friyay, everyone!

Halloween is just around the corner and I’m back with another Halloween card today.

To begin, I die cut 3 times using Scallop Frames as shown from an A2 sized white card stock. I ink blended 3 scallop pieces using distress oxide inks and splattered clean water and let it dried.

I stamped Halloween images from Monster Bash and Meowy Halloween and colored them with Copic markers. I added Nuvo Crystal Drops Morning Dew to each monster’s eyes and cut all pieces using Coordinating Dies and scissors after they dried.

I white heat embossed each sentiments from Monster Bash. I mounted all pieces as shown using foam adhesive and glue. To finish, I embellished my card with Peridot Crystals and June Crystals.

Thank you so much for joining me today!

You’re my Favorite Superhero with Kristina

/ CATEGORIES - Cards

Hello everyone! It’s Kristina here and I have a fun superhero card to share with you today!

I’ve started by blending distress inks on my background. I blended some yellow inks through the Light Ray stencil and then I blended some blue inks over this and spattered with water and silver paint.

Next, I stamped the images from Kobi The Super Bear stamp set, colored with copic markers and die cutting with coordinating dies. Then, I die cut the frame out of light grey cardstock using Dotted Patterns 3 die set. I adhered everything together with foam tape on my panel and my card is complete!

 

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Winter Fun with the Ice Day Penguins by Ilda

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, Shaker Cards, Winter Holidays

Hello my friends, Ilda here! I am back today on the Studio Katia Blog with a winter scene card featuring the cute penguins from Kobi’s Ice Day stamp set. It still is early for winter here in Canada but it has already snowed a few times here since September, but thankfully it has melted! Although as the cold weather approaches I begin looking forward to the fun winter activities ahead.

For this card, I was imagining these cute little penguins having fun on a winter day… walking across a frozen lake wing in wing… sliding across the ice on their bellies… I also thought it would be fun to make it look like it was snowing and so turned this scene into a shaker card.

To make this card I began by stamping out the images onto Bristol paper, colored them in with Zig markers and then die cut them with the coordinating dies. Next, I worked on the background by blending out Peacock Feathers, Broken China, and Mermaid Lagoon Oxide Inks onto the background. I then misted the background with water and picked it up with a paper towel leaving behind watermarks on the inked panel. The next thing I did was cut out the card front to create the windows for the shaker.  I used the large oblong window die from the Dotted Patterns Set 3 to cut out the two windows and then used the large rectangle die from the Dotted Patterns: Darling Ribbon Dies to cut out the entire panel. I then stamped out the winter fun stamp between the windows. I used the windows I had just cut out to figure out where to stamp the snowflakes onto the inked panel. Once the distress oxide ink was dry, I stamped out the snowflakes and heat set them with white embossing powder and began assembling the shaker card. The shaker mix consists of Silver Foil Stars and Sparkling Stars Confetti Glitter. Finally, I finished the card by gluing the penguins in place and adding some Iridescent Ice Flakes to the card front.

I hope this Winter Fun Card inspired you today!

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

Winter Wishes with Kaja

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, Winter Holidays

Hi there,

It’s Kaja from Kajcyika crafts and today I made a cute winter card! Let’s take a look how I made it! 🙂

The card looks like this:

First, I made the background. I decided to do some ink blending and the easiest way for me to do so is with distress oxides. I used three colors of ink, the lightest shade is Tumbled glass, the medium shade is Broken china and the darkest shade is faded jeans.

Once the background was all covered in ink I die cut it using the rectangle from Dotted patterns set 3 die set. Then, I sprinked it using clear water to get some light splotches and after that I used white paint and made some more splotches, that now look like snow.

I stamped out Kobi the bear from Kobi’s ice day stamp set and I masked off the bottom part of his ice-skates, so it looks like he is wearing boots. After that I stamped out a house, some trees and a snowman from the new set called Holiday village. I colored everything in using alcohol markers and then I die cut it using it’s coordinating dies.

Next, I decided to make a snowy hill, so I die cut another rectangle from the same Dotted patterns set 3 die set, but this time I used a normal white card stock. Then, I used Simple dotted borders die to cut down two hills from it that fit perfectly on the background.

The only thing left to do was to add a sentiment and I decided to use a simple ‘winter wishes’ saying from the Holiday village stamp set. I stamped it in black on a piece of white cardstock that I trimmed down using my paper trimmer.

Then, I glued everything together using Studio Katia glue and some double sided foam rectangles.

That’s it for today! Thank you so much for joining me! See you next time.
