Cute winter scene card. Video

/ CATEGORIES - Winter Holidays

Hello everyone!

Galina is here. Let’s make a cute and easy Christmas card using Holiday village stamp set and coloring mediums.

How to make this card you can watch here or on Studio Katia Youtube channel.

I cut out a mint color panel using the biggest die from Dotted Die set 4 and with a maller die I cut out a white frame with two openings and two thin rectangle frames. I stamped a few images from Holiday Village stamp set on the inner die cuts and rest Images I stamped on a separate white paper piece and cut them out with a coordinating die. I foam mount those elements on the inner die cuts to create a layered scene.

To embellish the card I used ARCTIC BREEZE PEARLS and Crystal snow paste to decorate the roofs.

2 ways of using DOTTED SQUARE FRAME DIE

/ CATEGORIES - Other

Hello everyone!

Galina with you today 🙂 I used the same die for both of my cards. It is called DOTTED SQUARE FRAME DIE and it’s A2 cover plate die. To add more interest to the pattern I used SQUARE BRICK STENCIL with the DOTTED SQUARE FRAME die cut.

How to make these cards you can watch here or on Studio Katia Youtube channel.

The first card, on a craft card base is a one layer card. First I applied inks through the DOTTED SQUARE FRAME die cut and second layer of ink I applied through the SQUARE BRICK STENCIL. I stamped the sentiment using IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY Stamp set and Versafine Black ink.

I decided to make a second card with a dimensional frame, so I foam mount the DOTTED SQUARE FRAME die cut on my ink blended card panel. Also I added two little butterflies from the BUTTERFLIES Stamp set, I colored them with alcohol markers. I cut out asentiment using black cardstock and a coordinating die set called A CUP OF THANKS DIES.

To embelish the cards I picked light blue, green and yellow pearls for the first card and jewel crystals for the second card.

Thanks so mush for stopping by!

Card backgrouds using clay e,bellishments. Video

/ CATEGORIES - Birthday Cards, Cards, CAS, Thank You Cards

Hello everyone!

Galina is here and I want to show you how I made the card backgrounds using clay envelopes  and Large polka doe Stencil 🙂

How to quickly and easily embellish the card with small clay embellishments you can watch here or on Studio Katia Youtube channel.

For my first bee-mail card I add envelopes randomly on the ink blended card panel. I cut out the panel using the biggest die from Dotted Patterns set 1. Also I cut out the envelope from whiteand silver cardstock using Envelope Shaker die.

I stamped two bees from the Honey Bees Stamp set and colored them with alcohol based Copic markers. I stamped a sentiment from the same stam set with dark blue ink.

For easier clay envelope positioning use a Stencil with repeatable pattern like – Large Polka Dot Stencil.

You can embellish the card with clay envelopes in different shapes and directions. I made a rectangle frame with envelopes using a Large Polka Dot Stencil as a guid.

 

And for sure you can create a full pattern of envelopes on a card background.

Rainbow Butterflies Slimline Card

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, Hello Cards, New Release, Other

 
 

Hello sweet friends, it has been a while. Ilda here!

 

Today I have a rainbow-inspired slimline Butterfly card to share with you. If you didn’t know by now, my favorite color is rainbow because I love all of them, lol! So if you can’t decide like me, always chose rainbow… they just make for the happiest of cards. 🌈😊

 

My cards today feature the new Butterflies set from Studio Katia.

 

For the background, I used three colors of ink to blend out the rainbow (see inks below). I then trimmed the panel and popped it behind the new DOTTED SLIMLINE SET 3 die.

 
 
 

For the butterflies, I stamped them out using Blackout Ink on both white cardstock and vellum. I then used 3 colors of Copic markers (pink, yellow, and blue) to blend out the rainbow colors over the entire butterfly image. As you can see I was not careful to stay in the lines. It really was about adding a quick color. For each butterfly, I just moved the markers in different directions overlapping the colors in between to give create the rainbow blend. I repeated the same thing to the vellum butterflies only this time I colored the underside of the vellum making sure I colored them in the same pattern as the coordinating paper layer.

 

 

Once the butterflies were colored I then added a thin layer of glue using a glue pen (sorry forgot to link below) to the top of the vellum wings. Once they were dry I then bent and curled the wings and glued the bodies together and added them to the card front.

 

The sentiment was stamped and heat-embossed onto a banner from the PEONY TRIMMINGS DIES.

 

Here is a closer look at the gorgeous sparkle on the wings. I am a bit obsessed with SPARKLE GLITTER!

 

I then just finished this Rainbow Butterflies Slimline card by dropping some coordinating pearls into the die-cut holes of the card panel.

 
I hope this rainbow creation inspired you. Thank you for stopping by and until next time… Happy Crafting!
 

Ilda 🌈💗

Pumkin shaker card with multicolored background. Video

/ CATEGORIES - Cards, Other, Shaker Cards, Thank You Cards

Hello evereyone!

Galina is here and for today I want to share with you a fun technique for making multilayered backgrounds. I created a spicy orange background for my pumkin shaker.

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

I was playing with different distress inks. I applied them on the watercolor paper directly with the ink pad and sprayed with water. I dried the paper and repeated the ink smooshing a few more times.

I cut out a shaker window using a medium die from the Shaker Pumpkin Die set. I attached the clear acetate sheet behind the card panel and foam mounted it on the green card base. For The shaker elements I used green and orange sequins as well as Orange color Pearls.

I embellish the pumpkin with leaves and plastic flowers from LILAC BUSH FUSION sequin mix. On the card panel I added more gold and green pearls. I attached them with liquid glue from Studio Katia.

Shark-tastick birthday shaker card

Hello everyone!

Galina with you and today I want to show you how to create a cute birthday shaker card with an underwater scene.

How to make this card you can watch here or on Studio Katia Youtube channel.

For this card I created a shaker base using Scallop Hearts cover die ( I used only a rectangle die) and scallop square die set (only a half circle die). I applied blue inks with an ink blender brushes on the inner die cut of the shaker window. And I created my own sea miz with drops, bubbles, sequins and confetti.

I stamped two sharks, bubbles and fish from the Jawsome stamp set and colored them with copic markers. I cut out all the images with coordinating dies. I foam mount all the elements on the card base.

Hello everyone!

It’s Galina. Today I want to show a birthday card I made using my two favorite techniques. On this card I combined inlaid die cutting with a shaker making using a new Cupcake Shaker die.

I cut out an oval panel using Oval nesting dies and inside of this panel I cut out the cupcake shape window. I adhered the acetate sheet and foam tape on the back side of the oval frame. I attached it on the kraft card base with new Rainbow Clay stars inside.

I colored the cupcake parts with Distress inks and Copic markers and adhered them over the acetate window.

To create sentiment I colored a piece of white paper with a dark brown marker and heat embossed the sentiment from the Floral Cake Stamp set. I used fine detailed white embossing powder.

I embellish the card with super cool shiny gemes called SPARKLING ROUND GEMS. I adhered them with Studio Katia liquid glue.

One layered shaker card using Aloha stamp set

/ CATEGORIES - Other

Hello everyone!

There a lot of different shaker dies in Studio Katia shop, but this one – ELEGANT SCALLOP OVAL DIE works a bit different. It doesn’t have an outer cutting line, so you can cut a shaker window inside of the card panel.

How to makethis card you can watch here or on Studio Katia Youtube channel.

I cut out a shaker widow in the woodgrain cardstock. I glued a piece of the kraft cardstock in the centre of the cardbase and stamped a sentiment from the Aloha Stamp Set.

Also, I stamped few flowers and leaves from Aloha stamp set, I colored them with Copic markers: R43, 24, 46; G21, 28, YG 45. I cut out the stamped images with coordinating dies.

I made my own shaker crystal mix using red, yellow, orange and green crystals from Studio Katia. I foam mounted the card panel and adhered the flowers.

To embellish the card I add white matt crystals around the oval frame.
