A Cup Of Thanks

February 20, 2019 / CATEGORIES - Cards, Floral Cards, Thank You Cards

Hey lovelies, Tracy with you today sharing a card I recently created using the A Cup Of Thanks stamp set.

I used the sentiment thanks a latte as the mug I use for my latte is actually really similar to this one so it seemed kinda fitting.

I started off stamping the image into some Neenah Solar white cardstock and then coloring it with Spectrum Noir Triblend Markers. Once it was done I used the matching die to cut the piece out.

I trimmed down some Neenah and added a very light area of pink ink to the centre and stamped the sentiment. I also added some white gel pen detailing to the flowers for added extra.

I picked out some colored card and patterned paper from my stash and trimmed them all down so that they would leave borders around the edges.

I then set about assembling the card and added some Majestic sequins to finish it card off and add some sparkle.

This is a beautiful stamp to color and I love how it turned out.

Thank you so much for stopping by today, I hope you have a great day.

Happy crafting.

Bright Watercolor Card with Svetlana

February 15, 2019 / CATEGORIES - Birthday Cards, Floral Cards

Hello!
Svetlana here and today I have a bright watercolor card for you!

For this card I used Spring Bouquet Stamp Set. I took a watercolor panel and stamped some flowers on the top and bottom edge. Next, I colored all the flowers with watercolor ZIG markers. I added some color to the background as well.

It turned out into a watercolor explosion!

To make my card complete I added Birthday Greetings and some Majestic Confetti. The card is ready and pleases the eye with its brightness!

Thank you all for your attention!

Valentine’s Day Card with Dana

February 14, 2019 / CATEGORIES - Cards, Floral Cards, Valentines Day Cards

Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone!

It’s Dana here and I’d like to share my last Valentine’s Day theme card of this year 🙂

To start, I stamped Kobi and bouquet images from Kobi’s Hugs & Kisses Stamp Set onto cold pressed watercolor paper. I colored them with watercolor paints and water brush. Once dried, I die cut them with Coordinating Dies.

I took an A2 sized white card stock and die cut scallop frame using Fancy Circle. Before I adhered frame with its original panel, I randomly stamped flower images from You’re So Sweet Stamp Set in warm grey color.

Next, I mounted patterned paper onto white card base and covered it with floral panel with frame. I then die cut ‘best’ from black card stock using Best Ever Coordinating Die and stamped sentiment from Japanese Peony Stamp Set.

To finish off, I foam mounted Kobi and embellished with July Crystals as shown in the picture.

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

One Layer Floral Card with Erum

February 12, 2019 / CATEGORIES - Floral Cards, Thank You Cards

Hi everyone!
Erum here today with a one layer floral card!

For my card today, I have used the Lovely Blooms Stamp Set. And today I used alcohol markers to colour my image.

I started by stamping the image with alcohol marker proof ink and I also did a bit of masking to add more leaves. This made the image a lot more fuller.

Next, I coloured the images and after that, I drew a black border to show as if it was behind the floral bouquet. I do this a lot just to ground my florals.

To add a bit more interest, I used a graphite pencil, a normal writing pencil to add a bit of shadow to the floral image and then blended it out with a blending stump.

To finish off, I stamped the sentiment from A Cup of Thanks Stamp Set.

That is all for today. I hope you liked my card.

Japanese Peony Slimline Birthday Card by Ilda

February 11, 2019 / CATEGORIES - Birthday Cards, Floral Cards

Hello dear friends and Happy Monday!

Ilda here with you today showcasing one of my favorite stamps from Studio Katia, the Japanese Peony Stamp and Coordinating Dies. Peonies are one of my favorite flowers and I can’t wait to see them bloom again in my garden in the Spring.

To begin I stamped out two flowers onto watercolor paper and then painted them in using Mijello Mission Gold watercolors. Once they were once they were dry I diecut each flower and a few extra leaves with the coordinating dies and set them aside to work on the rest of the card front.

To create a lattice like background for the flowers I cut a piece of paper that measured 4.25x 8.5 inches and then used the Halftone Dots Cover Die to die cut the panel, running it twice through the machine to create a larger panel. Before adhering the background layer to the card front, I blended out some Broken China distress oxide ink onto the card front and then glued down the lattice-like background.

To finish off the card, I glued the bottom peony onto the background and popped up the yellow peony with foam tape. The sentiment I used comes from the Birthday Greeting set and the Friend word die comes from the Spring Bouquet Die set. To add some shiny details I used glossy accents and added a few iridescent bubbles along the card front.

Hope this Japanese Peony Slimline Birthday Card inspired you today.

Thanks for stopping by, Ilda

Floral birthday card by Galina

February 1, 2019 / CATEGORIES - Birthday Cards, Cards, CAS, Floral Cards, Other

Hi everyone! It’s Galina. Today I want to share with you a birthday card with soft pastel color combo.

I start with creating card background. I cut rectangle piece of white cardstock and apply beige, pink and blue distress oxide inks. I love to use distress oxides to create delicate cards, because after drying colors became more soft, with light touch of white color.

Next I stamp few flowers on the watercolor paper. For coloring I used distress markers and lot of water to get soft colors. I cut all elements with coordinating dies. For sentiment I decided to make a white panel, so I use rectangle die to cut it out and I stamped sentiment on it with versa mark black ink.

I adhere panel with sentiment and flowers onto card base using adhesive foam. At last I add embellishments, such as sequins and crystals. It was hard to stop adding them 🙂 Love sparkle cards!

P.S. I add white splashes on the card using white acrylic paint mixed with water. 🙂

Hope you like this card and will try to make card with those wonderful stamps!

See you soon!

Galina

Hello! How is your mood?
Here is my bright and colorful card I made on a gloomy grey day! How’s your winter? How do you add color to the colorless days? Do you feel depressed while waiting for the sunny spring days or do you cope by seeking joy from favourite things? I have an advice for you ❤ If for any reason you are not in a coloring mood, you can simply make a colorful background for your card by using a medium like alcohol ink.

I added splashes of white paint onto the finished background and adhered my stamped and die cut image made with A Cup of Thanks Stamps and Dies. I added a sentiment and some crystals to make my card look complete. My stylish card is ready!

Enjoy any season and any weather you have, simply brighten them up if they influence your mood in a bad way.

Big flower card

January 21, 2019 / CATEGORIES - Cards, Floral Cards, Hello Cards

Hi guys! It’s Galina and I want to recreate my old card and use my favoritwe big flower stamp. As you can see I used an active background for this card and it looks ok with such massive flower because of save color palette on flower and background.

For coloring I choose few Copic markers and one dark blue pencil for shadows and accents. It takes some time to color with details such flower but I love the result.

To create colorful card background I cut a white panel using die and applied few colors of distress ink on it. I used Broken China and Faded Jeans colors.

Hope you like this card 🙂 Have a great day!

Quick and Easy Hello Friend Card by Ilda

January 16, 2019 / CATEGORIES - Cards, Floral Cards, Hello Cards

Hello Friends, Ilda here with you today on the Studio Katia Blog. Today I am sharing a super quick and easy card to make using the You’re So Ranunculus stamp set. A card like this would be a great card to mass produce for whatever occasion you needed.

I began by stamping out the image and heat setting it with a gold embossing powder onto watercolor paper. Using a large brush I then applied a generous amount of water to the paper. Next, I smooshed Squeezed Lemon and Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide ink onto to a slick surface and added the color to the paper starting with the yellow on the top and pink on the bottom and then blended the two colors slightly in the middle. To some of the flower petals, I added a little more pigment before the water dried. Once the panel was completely dry, I die cut the added some splatters of ink using the same oxide colors.

I then ran the paper through the die cutting machine using the large frame from the Dotted Pattern Set 3 die set. I glued that piece onto a gold foil cardstock that I had trimmed to size and then glued them onto an A2 card base using foam tape.

I finished off the card front with gold foil die-cuts that came from the Spring Bouquet Coordinating die set and the You’re So Ranunculus Coordinating die set, and then added some gold crystals as finishing touches.

Hope this quick and easy yet beautiful Hello Friend card inspired you today.

Until next time, Ilda.
