Easter Cards

Happy Easter from Kobi!

April 7, 2020 / CATEGORIES - Easter Cards

Hello again, crafty friends!

I’m back again with another shaker card for you today, using so many colorful embellishments from the shop.

Let’s get started!

I began by cutting and scoring a 4.25 x 5.5 inch card base and setting it aside.

I also cut down a 4.25 x 5.5 inch card panel and used the Bubbles Stencil to ink blend the background pattern, using various dye inks.

Using the Darling Ribbons and Frames Die set, I cut an opening on the stenciled panel that would be the window for the shaker card. I then turned the stenciled panel over, adhered a clear piece of acetate over the window, and then laid down foam tape all around the outside border of the stenciled panel.

I chose a few different sequins and pearls (Luminous Lavender, Dazzling Celery, Central Park Fusion, and Prismatic Sky) and filled the area that would show through the window, and then carefully picked up my card base and placed it over the window panel, pressing down along the foam tape strips to make sure everything was secure and holding together.

To finish off the card, I stamped, colored, and cut out two images from the promotional Easter mini-stamp set and then glued them on to the front of the card in the window area, along with a stamped and cut out sentiment.

Thank you so much for hanging out with me today!

Happy Easter and happy crafting!

Floral Cross | One Stamp Three Ways with Liliuska

March 8, 2019 / CATEGORIES - Easter Cards, Floral Cards

Hello Everyone!

Liliuska here and I am so happy to share with you three cards I made using beautiful Floral Cross stamp set.

If you like to gift cards that are each slightly different (I know I do), you will find this post very helpful, since all you need here is change colour scheme and you will end up with cards that look similar, yet are different and you will have more fun making them. If you are into mass producing, you will find useful ideas here as well. 🙂

Before I knew what I am going to make I decided to stamp Floral Cross image multiple times on different kinds of paper: vellum, heat resistant acetate, water-colour paper, heavy weight white cardstock. I also stamped not only with regular black ink, but also with heat embossing ink and used white and platinum embossing powder. From all the stamped images I picked three: heat embossed on heat resistant acetate, heat embossed on watercolour paper and stamped on white cardstock.

For the first card I decided to use masking. I made two masks: one for full image and one for flowers only. I covered stamped image and using Light Ray Stencil and yellow ink added light rays around the image. I also added a bit of shading around the whole image.

Next, I removed the mask, stamped the sentiment and only covered flowers with masks to add some ink blending to the cross. I also lightly ink blended edges of the whole panel, so it would have a more finished look. I added few yellow crystals and adhered finished panel onto a yellow card base.

For the second card I decided to make a shaker. I die cut out a panel out of blue cardstock using my favourite die from Dotted Patterns Set 3 and die cut a window in it using die from Dotted Patterns Set 2. Using same die from the Set 2 I die cut a thin frame and a word Easter out of a silver glitter cardstock. I glued acetate with heat embossed image to the blue frame. I coloured the image on the wrong side using alcohol markers. After adding double layer of foam tape I filled my future shaker with silver and rainbow confetti.

For the shaker background I added light rays using yellow ink and Light Ray Stencil. I wanted to add something that would add a bit of interest to the card and at the same time would not steal the show from the heat embossed image. I decorated the front of my shaker card with silver glitter frame and word Easter.

For the third card I decided to play with some watercolor pencils. I love using platinum and white embossing powder with watercoloring. I think it looks much more elegant than plain black stamping. Here I used my favourite platinum powder.

After colouring the image I simply foam mounted it onto green card base and glued word Easter die cut out of golden glitter paper. I also added few clear drops which always perfectly complement watercoloured images.

Hope you enjoyed what I had to share with you today and will give it a try. Have a lovely and inspiring weekend!

Theme Week | Easter Cards – Day 5 with Laura

March 16, 2018 / CATEGORIES - Easter Cards, Floral Cards

Hi everyone! It’s Laura here, with an Easter card featuring the Floral Cross Clear Stamp Set and the Script Easter die.
To start off this card I created the front frame: and the frame inserts: I used the the Dotted Patterns: Darling Ribbon Creative Dies to cut some vanilla cardstock to an A2 size, and one of the dies in the the Dotted Patterns: Set 2 Creative Dies to create three rectangular windows on this panel. I then used this same die to cut three panels from some kraft cardstock.

Next, I stamped the images in the Floral Cross Clear Stamp Set set on the corners of two of the kraft cardstock rectangles. I used brown ink for the stamping, and colored in the flowers with Prismacolor pencils.
I cut the word “Easter” out of some brown cardstock using the Script Easter die, and I cut two banners with another die from the Dotted Patterns: Set 2 Creative Dies, one from vanilla cardstock, and one from brown cardstock.

I stamped the word “blessings” from the Floral Cross stamp set on the vanilla banner using brown ink, and then glued all the elements to an A2 card base.
I have to say, had a lot of fun creating this card and trying to find a creative way to use this beautiful floral set. And by changing the sentiment you can stretch the use this set even beyond Easter cards! Isn’t it great?
And that’s it for today! I really hope you like this card and I hope I inspired you to create with the gorgeous Floral Cross Clear Stamp Set. Thank you all so much for stopping by, and have a great day!

Theme Week | Easter Cards – Day 4 with Galina Filippenko

March 15, 2018 / CATEGORIES - Easter Cards, Floral Cards

Hello everyone! It’s Galina. I want to share with you two different cards using one stamp set – Floral Cross.

For my first card I die cut a purple and white panel using Dotted Patterns: Set 2.

On the inner pannel I stamped only floral corners of the Floral Cross stamp. And clored them with distress markers. From a dark pink cardstock I die cut a sentiment using die from the Spring Bouquet Coordinating Dies. And I decorated my card with Iridescent Stars.

For my second card I used same die set to create a mindow in my card panel. Iswde of this windom I stamped Floral Cross and colored it with distress markers.

I used small die Script Easter to create a sentiment. I cut sentiment twice, from yellow and green cardstock. Green one I used as a shadow fr my sentiment. To decorate my card I add few green drops.

Have a great day!

Theme Week | Easter Cards – Day 3 with Tracy

Hey lovelies, I hope you’re all having a great week.

What a fantastic release this one has been ! what is your favourite item ? I simply cannot pick one and think Katia has done an AMAZING job with this release.

This week the design team are showcasing the Floral Cross from the new release. This is a very pretty stamp and as Erum showed it looks amazing when not coloured.

I wanted to create a fairly clean and simple design and I coloured the Floral Cross using Polychromo pencils.

I stamped and coloured the stamp onto some white card and then I used the new Simple Dotted Borders dies, I have used the straight one that also cuts and used it along each edge of the piece.

I then stamped the sentiment Easter Blessings which comes with the Floral Cross Stamp using Clear ink and then heat embossed it with white detail embossing powder. I also decided to add some extra detailing with a white gel pen.

Once that was all done I adhered it to a light blue card base…I will confess once I did this I nothing an ink stain and it wouldn’t budge even with my sand eraser so out come the Majestic Confetti 🙂

Thank you so much for stopping by today. Don’t forget to share your Studio Katia creations with us on our Facebook Group or on instagram with the #studiokatia.

Happy Crafting!

Theme Week | Easter Cards – Day 2 with Rowena

March 13, 2018 / CATEGORIES - Easter Cards, Floral Cards, Theme Week

Hello friends! It’s Rowena here and it’s theme week here once again! All week long the entire design team is showcasing the ‘Floral Cross‘ stamp set. So be sure to visit the blog all week long for an entire week of inspirations and ideas from the team.

For today’s project, I wanted to create a bold and bright background for my main focal point. For this I used Picked Raspberry and Wild Honey distress inks, focusing mainly on the bottom of my panel. Then I splattered some clean water to create a distress look, I trimmed my panel using ‘Dotted Panels/Set 2‘ to frame my floral cross.

I stamped my image in a copic friendly ink and colored them with copic markers. Then with the same ink I stamp the cross one more time and colored it with copic as well. The image is big enough so I did some fussy cutting around my floral image and my additional cross. Once all my images are colored, I’m ready to assemble my card. I heat embossed my sentiment in silver and added foam tape for extra dimension. I also added foam tape to my panel onto an A2 size card.

To complete my card, I added wink of stella on all the flowers as well as some glossy accent, and white gel pen to add extra details to the flowers. Then some ‘Iridescent Bubbles’ to add the finishing touches on today’s card.

I hope you all enjoyed today’s card and got inspired! Make sure to visit us all week long for more inspirations and ideas. Have a wonderful day and happy crafting!!

Happy Easter with Liliuska

March 23, 2017 / CATEGORIES - Cards, Easter Cards, Floral Cards

Hello everyone!

Do you make Easter cards? I always promise myself to make more of them, but with all the snow on the ground it’s so hard to find inspiration sometimes. Well, not with Studio Katia’s stamps. Together We Bloom Stamp Set is so beautiful I instantly had an idea for Easter card in my head. That’s the card I want to share with you today.

I traced an egg die on a watercolour paper and stamped flowers inside the shape. I used Derwent watercolour pencils on the flowers and Ecoline black marker for the rest of the egg. I spritzed the whole card with sparkling mist and added even more sparkle on the die cut greeting using a glitter pen. I adhered the die cut Easter egg to a white woodgrain panel using dimensional adhesive. Final touch – sequins! I used white and transparent sequins from a Winter Wonderland fusion.
