Stamping Village collaboration- We stand with you

July 23, 2020 / CATEGORIES - Blog Hops, Cards, CAS, Hello Cards, News, Shaker Cards

Hello everyone! Today in cooperation with other amazing companies we are presenting a new stamp set. The set is called We Stand With You. It is all about inclusion, love, kindness and doing the right thing. 100% of the net profits from every stamp set will be donated to the NAACP Legal Defense & Education fund.

We have many card samples for you and a special video on how to make a rainbow shaker card with a stained glass effect on it.

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

For this card I used a small rainbow stamp with a sentiment and few dies from Studio Katia: MINI POLKA DOTS COVER DIE – for the card background and FANCY CIRCLE die set to create a shaker window. Inside of the shakekr I put a lot of clear crystals called SPARKLING CRYSTALS.

Behind the die cut panel I put a pattern paper to add color to some dots on the background. I used a rainbow paper sheet with stripes from – BLACK, WHITE & RAINBOW 6×6 PAPER SET.

For the second card I used FANCY CIRCLE die set again. I cut out 9 circle windows in a white card panel. I foam mount it on a the different color cardstock pieces. After die cutting windows I got 9 small scallop circle die cuts. I stamped a rainbows on them using dye inks.

On a piece of grey cardstock I heat emboss a sentiment from the We Stand With You Stamp set. To embellish my card I add a yellow thread and colorful Jewel Crystals from Studio Katia.

And I want to share with you one more card, in case you missed it on Studio Katia Instagram.

To create this card I cut out a white panel with square windows using DOTTED SQUARE FRAME DIE. I made a little shakers on the central line of squares and on blue and yellow squares. I simply put a small acetate pieces behind these sections.

To create a sentiment I cut out letters from a white glitter cardstock using CHUNKY ALPHABET. The second part of the sentiment I heat embossed on the black cardstock.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Have a great day.

Video. Shaker cups slimline card

July 3, 2020 / CATEGORIES - Cards, Hello Cards, New Release, News, Shaker Cards

Hello friends! Galina with you today. And I want to share with how to create little shakers inside of the pretty cups with craft supplies. It’s a stamp set from our new release, if you missed it you can find all information and all new supplies in this post(click). Also for today’s project I picked new slimline dies and I absolutely in love with this new card format.

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

To create a bright background I cut out a white card panel using slimline dies set 2 and I add distress inks, I applied them diagonally with Studio Katia blender brushes on a thick cardstock. I masked edges of my die cut with a masking tape to keep them white.

Inside of the two pink cups I put yellow crystals called Pineapple Delight, they look so yummy!

All my images I colored with copic markers. I colored the cups with 3 shades of the each color to create a more realistic look on them.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

With this background die you can create a layered detailed cards or shakers or even a clean simple cards. I made two simple cards with one die cut. I was inspired by hexagon graphic I found on pinterest and I decided to recreate it on my card.

For my next cards I used shinny glitter from Studio Katia ans shinny cardstock.

I add a beautiful heart frames on the both cards. I used FANCY SCALLOP HEARTS DIES and a vellum for the inner parts.

I stamped sentiments on the vellum with archival black ink.

For the last two cards I made same frames with a vellum inside.

To embelish my cards I add crystals and drops from differentsets.

I hope you like these cards and will try some techniques with this die. Don’t miss a second part of this video, soon I’ll share more inspiration with this die.
