Hello everyone!

I’m so excited to be back on Studio Katia blog and Youtube chanel. First of all I want to thank you guys, for your support, kind words and staying with us!

Today I want to share with you a cute birthday card and a lot of fun techniques. I used an adorable Cactus Hugs Stamp set, Square Brick Stencil for a card background and Dotted Set 1 to die cut the panel and a window.

How I made this card you can watch here or on Studio Katia Youtube chanel.

Card Details

I applied different inks through the Square brick stencil on a white paper. I cut out a panel with a round window using Dotted Set 1. With a circle die I cut out a one more round die cut.

I stamped a cute cactus from Cactus Hugs Stamp set on a smooth white paper, I stamped with a Copic friendly ink – Memento Black ink. I colored the image with markers and stamped a little face on a pot. I cut out the cactus with a coordinating die. On a piece of red cardstock I heat embossed a white sentiment – Happy Birthday. You can find few more sentiment stamps in a Cactus set.

I embellished the card with transparent crystals. Also I adhered two tiny flowers on a cactus image. Don’t miss those flower sequins because they are retired and now on sale.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

I simply Love You

/ CATEGORIES - Other

 Hey lovelies, how are you all ? I hope 2021 is being kind to you all   

Today I am sharing my latest card

Me and hubs don’t tend to do valentines but I think this year we could all do some extra love.  I created the background using my Mission Gold watercolours and Prima Metallic watercolours and just had lots of fun creating. 

Once fully dry I used the Shaker Heart die to die cut the heart out and also cut it out some Glitter Cardstock from Tonic Studios.  I then added a sheet of adhesive behind the card and used the inlay technique.  To finish off I die cut the main panel using Dotted Patterns Set 1 main die.  I then adhered the panel to a slightly larger than A2 card and added a strip of glitter card along one side.  For the sentiment I heat embossed this beautiful sentiment from the Lovely Bloom Stamp set and adhered it through the middle using foam tape.  I then decided to add some Gold Crystals to add some extra bling and texture to the card. 

I hope you liked the card and I have inspired you to spread some love this Valentines.  Thank you so much for stopping by, I hope you have an amazing day.  Stay Safe and Happy Crafting. 

Stylish birthday card with gold embellishments

/ CATEGORIES - Birthday Cards

Hello everyone!

It’s Galina.I’m going to show you how to create a stylish birthday card using patterned paper and gold embellishments.

How I made this card you can watch here or on Studio Katia’s Youtube chanel.

For the all backgeound elements I used one die set – DARLING RIBBON & FRAMES. From a patterned paper I cut out a card panel with stripes, from an alchol ink background I cut out a smaller panel. I think bright, bold colors work perfectly with monochromatic papers. And with a smaller die from the set I cut out a black label for my heat embossed sentiment. I stamped a large phrase from It’s Your Birthday Stamp Set.

Using SHAKER BALLOON DIE I cut out a black ballon and applied golden paste, glitter gel and gold gilding flakes on it. I combined several mediums to create a liquid gold effect on the paper ballon.

Thanks for stopping by!

Valentine Hugs

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, Valentines Day Cards

Happy Monday, crafty friends! Today, I’m sharing the Valentine’s Day card I made for my son. I combined the Cactus Hugs and Potted Plants stamp and die sets, with the Stitch Borders dies.

 

 

The four cacti and the sentiment are from the Cactus Hugs stamp set. The flowers at the top right and the little hearts are from the Potted Plants stamp set.

 

I love customizing all of the little pots with the various faces. Since I created a grid on this card design, it was easy to heat emboss and watercolour them using the same distress inks.

 

I used the largest of the Stitch Borders dies to create the top panel and smooshed the same two colours I used to colour the pots with shimmer spritz to make it ultra sparkly. Then I used the tool ‘n’ one to remove some of the holes and adhered it to coloured cardstock to bring out the blue in the pots.

 

I repeated the sentiment, leaving a space to pop up the tiny hearts from the Potted Plants stamp set. Then I added an assortment of Seafoam Pearls with liquid glue and an embellishment wand.

 

Please visit me on my blog, Instagram and YouTube channel for more inspiration. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Valentine’s Day Rainbow Heart Cards

/ CATEGORIES - Shaker Cards, Valentines Day Cards

Happy Friday Friends. I hope you have had a safe and wonderful week.
Today’s cards are once again rainbow inspired. As you all must know by now, I love rainbows and today’s Valentine Day cards reflect that. I must however apologize as I did not realize that the SCALLOP HEARTS COVER and the LOOPS: CREATIVE DIES are SOLD OUT! So if you already own them then hopefully this will inspire you today and if you don’t I’m sure you could achieve similar results with some creativity. 
CARD DETAILS
To begin, I die cut the SCALLOP HEARTS COVER twice in order to make two cards and just set the extra pieces aside. I then removed the hearts and heart frames from the openings. Next, I used a variety of Atelier inks to blend out each heart. I then separated the hearts from the outer heart frames. 
To each heart, I then painted on a little layer of  STUDIO KATIA GLUE and then dipped the heart into  CHUNKY SPARKLE GLITTER. I then glued the hearts from the other card I had cut out back into the heart spaces and then stacked the glittery colored hearts in rainbow order back onto the card front. 

The sentiments come from the HAPPY CELEBRATIONS set that was stamped on black cardstock and heat embossed in white. I then stuck foam under the sentiment strip and added it to the card panel that I then glued onto the card base.

For this next card when I die cut the SCALLOP HEARTS COVER panel, I removed the scalloped frame for a different look. I then glued on the thin dotted frame from the LOOPS: CREATIVE DIES.

I had previously removed the hearts from this panel to use on my previous card. To the back of the panel, I then glued on a piece of acetate, added a foam border along the outer edge, and glued it onto the card base that was filled with some SPARKLING HEARTS CONF. GLITTER. 

To finish off the card front, I then added the heart frames to each window in rainbow order. The sentiment stamp I used comes from the GIFT TAG GREETINGS: VALENTINES set that was also stamped on black and heat embossed in white. The piece was then trimmed and foam mounted on top of one of the hearts.

The last thing I did was add some pearls for an extra pop of color. I hope these Valentine’s Day Rainbow Heart Cards inspired you today. These both could be used for any occasion simply by changing out the greeting.
Thank you for stopping by and until next time… Happy Crafting!

Watercolor Valentine’s Day Card with Dana

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, Floral Cards, Valentines Day Cards

Hello, everyone!
It’s Dana here and I’m back with my first card of 2021. Many of things are still not good, but I hope everything goes well in new year to all of you. Today, I have a lovely card for Valentine’s Day and let’s get started!

To begin, I die cut white card stock using SCALLOP HEARTS COVER. I die cut it again with Fancy Scallop Hearts Dies. I then took a CHUNKY ALPHABET set and die cut ‘LOVE’ and small tag from red card stock.

Next, I stamped KIND BOUQUET in black onto cold pressed watercolor paper. I watercolored bouquet using Distress Inks and let it dried. I then colored again with Copic markers for pop the images and I love how it turned out. As a last touch of coloring, I added white dots using white gel pen and Nuvo crystal drop.

I mounted watercolor panel onto A2 sized baby pink card stock and popped up scalloped one using foam tape. Then, I arranged alphabets using glue.
To finish, I white heat embossed a sentiment from GIFT TAG GREETINGS: VALENTINES.

Hope you enjoyed this card. Thank you so much for stopping by and happy crafting!

xoxo,

Dana

Birthday Wishes with Kaja

/ CATEGORIES - Birthday Cards, Floral Cards

Hi there,

It’s Kaja from Kajcyika crafts and today I made a bold glittery card that is actually really easy to make! Take a look:

 

I decided to go full glittery today, so I started by cutting out a piece of silver glitter paper. I cut it down to a size that is slightly smaller than the card base, which ensured that there will still be enough contrast on the card.

Then, I stamped out a floral image from Kind bouquet stamp set in black Copic friendly ink. First, I wanted to use red for the blooms, but I felt like it would be too Christmassy, so I ended up using dark blue shades. To make the coloring easier I used the no blend technique, where all you do is apply three shades of colors without blending.

 

I used the same coloring technique for the leaves, the only difference is that I used green shades for them.

The bloom is big enough that fills quite a lot of the background, so I decided to add a small sentiment that won’t cover too much of the remaining glitter. I went with ‘Birthday wishes’ stamp that can be found in Blooming bunch stamp set. To make it stand out, but still correspond nicely to the card, I used black ink on a piece of white paper.

I positioned the sentiment towards the right bottom side and the bouquet towards the left bottom side and glued everything together using Studio Katia glue.

That’s how simple this card is! Thank you so much for joining me! Let me know if you like making glittery cards or not. I must say that I usually forget about glitter, but when I use it I always love the result!

Hugs,

Kaja
