2021 Lets Be Kind

December 14, 2020 / CATEGORIES - Other

Hey lovelies, Tracy here with you today sharing a card I created for 2021….I know this year has been a crazy one hasn’t it.

I wanted to create a card to just remind us all to be kind, more kindness is needed than ever in the world right now and I know myself and hubs will certainly being that bit more kind whenever we can.

I have used the Chunky Numbers die set to cut out the numbers from some Neenah and some Glitter card, the thing I love about these numbers is they aren’t too big, they really are perfect size.

I hadn’t planned on doing a rainbow background, but hey you can’t go wrong with a little bit of rainbow. I inked the background up and then left to dry as I knew I was going to be embossing and didn’t want any accidents due to wet ink.

Once dry I stamped the Confetti Stamp using WOW clean ink and then heat embossing using WOW Gold embossing powder.

I then used the Scallop Hearts cover die, but just the main outer piece to die cut the whole area out and then adhered the numbers and also threw on some Gold Crystals.

To make the embossing pop a little I added some white gel pen shading, this also tied it with the white shadow on the numbers.

I might make a batch of these to give out with some costa gift cards to random people and hopefully make them smile.

Thank you so much for stopping by today, I hope you have an amazing day. And remember lets make 2021 the year of kindness.

Happy Crafting.

Well hello, friends, Ilda here!

This fun card is for all my animal lovers out there. I was inspired by a recent photo I saw of some friends with their furry pets. So I thought it would be a great idea to recreate it as a Christmas card.

CARD DETAILS

To begin, I stamped out all my images. The cute children and furries come from the LOVE FOR PAWS BUNDLE. To both kids, I added the Santa Claus hat that comes from the WINTER KOBI. The images were then colored using Copic Markers and then die cut with the coordinating dies.

Next, I stamped out the LOTS OF GIFTS TRIMMINGS on the background panel. I then colored the gifts very simply using a variety of red markers. I then added gold details with a gel pen. To the top of the presents, I first stamped out a tree from the HAPPY SNOWMEN set and then blended it a little to give it a glowing appearance. I then used a few INK BLENDER BRUSHES to blend out the top area of the panel used Distress Oxide inks.
Moving along, I trimmed down the panel and then glued the background to the scallop frame that comes from the DOTTED PATTERNS SET 4. I then popped the images back into the center of the scene using FOAM TAPE.

The sentiment comes from the HAPPY PAWLIDAYS Set, that I then die cut using the banner from the PEONY TRIMMINGS DIES.

Here is how I finished off the inside of the card. The sentiments also come from the HAPPY PAWLIDAYS stamp set.

Sending family photo cards at this time of year is very common, so maybe sending a handmade card personalized to look like you and your furry pets may be another option and a cute surprise for your recipients.

Hope this Happy Pawlidays Christmas Card inspired you today. And since I don’t post again until after Christmas. I just wanted to wish you all a very Merry Christmas however you are celebrating it this crazy year! Thank you for stopping by and until next time… xoxo, Ilda

Quick and Elegant Christmas Card by Tracey

December 9, 2020 / CATEGORIES - Cards, CAS, Floral Cards

Hi crafty peeps, it’s Tracey here today and I have a really quick and easily reproducible Christmas card to share. We are getting to crunch time now and it seems no matter how early I start making Christmas cards in the year, I never seem to have enough.

I used the Poinsettia Border stamp set to create my card today using some coloured cardstock, embossing and ink blending. Simple design but also very elegant.

I started with a 5 1/4″ x 4″ piece of red cardstock. I used my anti static tool all over the red cardstock so that I could prevent stray embossing powder sticking where it shouldn’t. Next I stamped and white embossed the poinsettia border in the upper left corner of my card. The sentiment from the same set was built with the “Merry” script stamps and Christmas in the sans serif font from the same in the bottom right.

My very simple card design was pretty, but it seemed to be missing something. I added some dimension by ink blending Black Soot Distress Oxide ink in from the corners on the red embossed panel using Studio Katia Blending Brushes. I used a very light hand to build to shading up slowly. Remember to can always add more but you can’t take it away.

To add a bit of sparkle to the front of the card I sprayed it with Sparkle Shimmer Spritz. It didn’t want to smile for the camera, but trust me it added a bit of elegance. To add a bit more to the card front without going overboard I added some Studio Katia Wine Berry Pearls over top of the berries on the poinsettia using Studio Katia glue. I used the two smallest pearl sizes and grouped them in three.

Thank you so much for stopping in today. Good luck getting those last minute cards done!

Christmas card background using one die

December 8, 2020 / CATEGORIES - Other

Hello everyone! It’s Galina. Today I want to share with you another way of how to use cover plate die – HALF STRIPE COVER DIE.

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

I start by cutting out two white panel with HALF STRIPE COVER DIE. I flip over one die cut and colored them with red, green and black alcohol markers. I glued two panels together and attached them on A2 gold glitter card panel.

I stamped a beautiful poinsettias using POINSETTIA BORDER stamp set. I colored them with Copic markers: R59, R46, R27, R24, R22, for leaves I used G17, G05, G02 colors. I cut out colored image with coordinating die and foam mount on the card panel. Using a small die from Merry Poinsettia Coordinating Dies Set I cut out a sentiment “Merry”. The second part of the sentiment I heat emboss on red paper with white embossing powder.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Clean and simple masculine card with Kaja

December 7, 2020 / CATEGORIES - Cards, CAS, Floral Cards

Hi there,

It’s Kaja from Kajcyika crafts and today I decided to take a break from Christmas cards and make a masculine card for a friend.

Take a look:

It has been a while since I made a clean and simple card with a masculine feel to it, so it was about time to make one! 🙂 I started making this card by stamping out and coloring the cacti from Cactus hugs stamp set. I used three different shapes of cactus which will then help me creating a simple scene. To color it in, I used typical colors, so the card looks even cleaner.

Next, I ink blended my background for which I used three colors of blue distress oxide ink and wonderful Studio Katia brushes. I started with dark color at the top and then blend it out with the middle and lightest shade. Once I was happy with the ombe that I got, I sprinkled some white paint on to, to make sure that the background goes nicely with my card.

Then, I took a piece of white card stock in the size of my card base and die cut an oval from Elegant scalopped oval dies set. I positioned it towards the top of the paper, which ensures that I have a big amount of white left at the bottom. I then glued the die cut piece directly over the ink blended background.

The last thing I added to this card was a sentiment that reads ‘Thinking of you’ and can be found in Potted plants stamp set. I used black ink on white card stock, so the sentiment doesn’t pop up too much.

The only thing left to do was to glue everything together using glue and double sided foam tape!

This finishes up this clean and simple masculine card! Let me know in the comments which SK stamp set do you use most for these kind of cards!

Hugs,

Kaja

Hi there! It’s Natalia here. Today I want to share with you my card using beautiful Studio Katia products – HONEY BEES , POINSETTIA BORDER and MERRY POINSETTIA stamp sets.

First, I stamped the cute images from the HONEY BEES , POINSETTIA BORDER and MERRY POINSETTIA stamp sets. Colored with copic markers and die cut with coordinating dies and scissors.

I made highlights using white and silver pen. Next, I blended some distress inks onto a white piece of paper.

I attached flowers to the slider.

Using circle die I made the window for shaker. Then I made the place for shaker using fun foam and filled it with SPARKLING CRYSTALS, ROUGE PINK CRYSTALS, PINEAPPLE DELIGHT CRYSTALS, PINK CARNATION CRYSTALS, MALLOW CRYSTALS, CRYSTAL CLEAR CONFETTI, CRYSTAL RAINBOW CONFETTI, 3M CRYSTAL CLEAR and CLEAR DUST. After that I cut the panel out of gold glitter cardstock using circle die.

Next, I adhered all the elements on the ink blended paper panel using double-sided foam tape. I die cut out the words Merry out of a gold glittered cardstock using a die from MERRY POINSETTIA DIES and adhered it in the middle using double-sided foam tape.

Thank you so much for join me today, have a great day!

Friendship Cards with Emily

December 2, 2020 / CATEGORIES - Cards, Other

Hello, dear friends! I thought I’d take a break from making Christmas and winter cards and use this adorable friendship set called Paws for Kindness. Both the girl and boy with their cat and dog are super cute so I had to feature both of them on their own cards with customized sentiments. All three parts of the frames were created using the Dotted Patterns Set 2 dies.

I started by stamping and heat embossing the images on watercolour cardstock. Then I watercolored them with distress inks and you can find all those colours in the supply links below.

I set the images aside to dry and trimmed my card bases and outer frames from linen cardstock.

I die cut the frames again from watercolour cardstock and stamped and heat embossed the sentiments.

Then I ink blended the backgrounds and splattered the panels with sparkle shimmer spritz.

I cut the frames a third time from graphite and silver glitter cardstock, one for each of the cards.

To finish, I adhered the two inner frames flat with liquid glue and popped up the outer frames and images with foam tape. Both cards were embellished with watercolored hearts and Bluebell and Bora Bora pearls to match their ink blended backgrounds.

I heat emsosed a big snowflake on the vellum and foam mount it on tag.

Also, I cut out a white heart using SWEET HEART CANDY die and I stamped a sentiment on it. I colored the edge of the die cut with red Copic marker and applied a lot of chunky glitter on it.

Cheerful Holiday Card with Dana

November 30, 2020 / CATEGORIES - Cards, Winter Holidays

Happy Monday, everyone!

It’s Dana and I hope you had a wonderful weekend. Today, I’m back with a fun holiday card and here is what I came up with.

To start, I stamped Happy Pawlidays onto cold pressed watercolor paper in black. I watercolored them using watercolor paints and paint brush. After coloring, I let it dried and adhere watercolor panel onto white card base.

Next, I took A2 sized red cardstock and die cut it with European Window. I also used this die for window and frame with white & brown wood grain papers. Before I arranged them using masking tape, I flicked white inks here and there on red card stock. Once dried, I applied snow marker where I wanted and heat embossed it using heat tool.

Then, I popped up red panel onto A2 sized white card base using foam tape. For sentiment, I die cut ‘falala’ from golden metallic paper using Happy Pawlidays Dies. As a final touch, I slightly glued them as shown in the picture.

Hope you enjoyed this card. Thank you so much for stopping by!

xoxo,
Dana
