May Release Preview – Day 1 with Laurie

May 22, 2017 / CATEGORIES - Cards, New Release

Hello and welcome to our May Release week Preview. This release includes 5 new clear stamp sets, 2 new stand along die sets and introducing new coordinating die sets. Yay!

Laurie here to share one of the new stamp and die sets coming soon to Studio Katia!!  I’m so excited about this release and you should be too!  It’s incredible!  There are 5 new stamp sets and 2 die sets being released this month along with new embellishments, yay!

Today, I get to share with you something that you’ve likely seen before.  The Mini Thank You set was previously given out as a freebie with a qualifying order.  But this month, it is going to be a part of the shop and available to purchase.  Not only that, but it also has co-ordinating dies!!  This tiny set is actually one of my favorites.  It may be small, but its mighty.
I wanted to show you the versatility of this mini set, so I created a couple of very different cards.  The first one is what I would call…elegant.  Very subtle colour with die cutting as the focus.
I started by stamping the “thank you” repeatedly on a white panel in Fog Ink from Simon Says Stamp.  To fill in some of the spaces, I stamped the tiny heart that’s included in the Mini Thank You set.  I die cut the panel using a NEW DIE and adhered it directly onto a grey cardbase.  I die cut the thank you 3 times from the same grey cardstock and stacked them together.  To give the card a bit of a “lighter’ feel, I die cut the scalloped circle from the Dotted Balloons Creative Dies out of a piece of vellum.  This die cuts 2 pieces.  The skinny outline die is cut separately, and I just so happened to have that piece already cut from white cardstock.  I adhered the sentiment to the vellum before attaching it to the card so I could hide the adhesive, then glued down the thin frame.  To finish this card off, I used some of the fabulous Sparkling Crystals Mix and some BRAND NEW Frosted Hearts embellishments!!  And of course some Clear Wink of Stella over the sentiment!
I love this card!
Now onto something a bit more colourful!!  I started by stamping the butterfly image from the Mini Thank You set all over a white panel.  I used a variety of Copic markers, in rainbow colours to make these beauties come to life.
Again, to fill in the spaces, I stamped the little heart. This panel was also cut using the BRAND NEW DIE!!   I didn’t want to cover up any of my colouring, so I decided to die cut the sentiment directly out of that panel and do some inlay die cutting!  I also die cut the sentiment 3 times from some black cardstock to give it some dimension before adhering it into place.  I used ATG adhesive to adhere the butterfly panel onto a grey panel cut with the largest die from the Darling Ribbon and Dotted Frames Creative Dies Set (see how those two dies co-ordinate? Awesome, isn’t it?)  To make the sentiment “pop”, I added glitter pen and Glossy Accents.  I also added sparkle and shine to parts of the butterflies and hearts!
And to finish this card off, I used some Plum Smoke Sequins with a dot of Crystal Stickles.
Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you’ll come back everyday this week for a look at some more new products, which will be available in the shop on May 27!!  And stay tuned because on release day we’re having a blog hop to celebrate!!!
See you soon!!
Laurie

    I absolutely love the tone on tone thank you’s stamped all over the card base, so simple yet so striking, and then the vellum in the center so you can still the stamped thank you’s, very elegant. I learn so much reading your blog, thank you.

    Wow! It’s finally happening! I L O V E this “thank you” stamp set! And G O R G E O U S cards!
    I used to think that “thank you” is far behind “happy birthday”, “congrats” & others. It’s only here in a crafting community I got to experience that there are never enough “thank you: cards! 🙂

    I had to re-read the post as I thought I read wrong after seeing the inspiration projects. For a mini stamp set it really makes a stunning impact..
