Welcome to the Family - Studio Katia November 2016 Release

Hello everyone,

I'm very excited and honoured to be joining Studio Katia for their November Release which is now in the shop.  Here is just one of the cards that I've created with this amazing release.

I wanted to create a shaker card because there are so many pretty sequins I wanted to show them off.  I started by cutting out an A2 sized card panel and used a same sized rectangle die to clean up the edges.  I then took the elongated octagon dies and cut out a frame, which I set aside for another project.  I added a piece of acetate to the back of the panel and then added the middle octagon to the front so it would have something to adhere to.  I then added foam tape to the back to create my shaker.

I stamped the sentiment with Hero Arts black die ink. I then stamped the adorable fox and two hearts with Versamark ink and heat embossed it with orange embossing powder and the fussy cut them out. 

I added the shaker part to the card base and made sure it opened the right way (yes, that has happened more times then I care to admit). I added the fox and hearts to the card as well as a few of the same sequins that are inside the shaker.

Thanks for stopping by, see you again soon.

Skipping Stones Design Day 1- New Release!!!

Hello everyone!

Welcome to a brand new release hop for November.  Heather is working hard to bring you some great sets and here is one of them.



For my card, I use the new "FUNDERWEAR" set and it's adorable.

I stamped the panties with Versafine onyx black and heat embossed with clear embossing powder.  I then used a sponge dauber and two colours of pink dye ink and coloured in the pretty polka dot panties and added some glitter to the dots.

I die cut the top panel with stitched rounded rectangle die and the bottom panel is embossed with a striped embossing folder and die cut it out with another rectangle die.  Then I popped up the bottom panel on the the card base that I stamped with a striped background stamp in grey ink.  I used wet glue to add on the smaller panel and popped up the panties on top of that. I finished off the card with a few pearl dots.

Well you have come to the end of the hop and we hope that you had as much fun hopping along with us as we did creating the cards for the hop.  Don't forget to comment as one lucky commentor will win a stamp set from the new release.

HCW Day 3 & 4

Hello everyone,

I have two days put together for the Holiday Card Workshop.  Life has been SUPER crazy and I am not crafting as much as I would like but I did manage to get something done for day 3 & 4.

Day 3

Day 4 - I used Kristina's one layer card.  I used Hero Arts shadow inks in charcoal, pale tomato and butter bar ( I love that name!)   I used the back of some CTMH border stamps 

Thanks for stopping by!

See you soon.

HCW13 Day 2

Hello everyone,

It's day 2 of the Holiday Card Workshop 13 and I took inspiration from Debbie's card.  I received my SSS extra card hit for December (so excited!) and I used the snowflake die that came with that kit.

I used glitter on the blue snowflake, stickles on the other and liquid glass on the third.

I also used the stickles to line the white snowbank.  

I used the sentiment that came in the same kit and used Outdoor Denim ink from CTMH.

Thanks for stopping by!

See you soon.

Holiday Card Workshop Day 1 - Card #2

Hi everyone,

I found the time to do up another card and this time I used Jennifer McGuire's card.

I didn't have a background stamp so I used patterned paper.  I heat embossed the star and coloured it with a yellow copic marker.  I used May Arts twine that came in one of the SSS CKOM and the card base has red glitter!

Thanks for stopping by!

Simon Says Stamp Holiday Card Workshop 2013 Day 1

Hello everyone!

I have joined the Holiday Card Workshop and this is day 1 and I am super excited!

Here is my card for Day 1.  I've used Kristina's card as inspiration.  Since I only have three rolls of wash tape in my stash (Yes, you read that right!) I used red baker's twine instead and,  here is another shocker, I don't have a penguin stamp either!  So I used this stamp from SSS Purry Christmas instead.  I also thought it would be cute to wrap the twine around it's tail and ear as this is what my cat would do.

I used kraft card stock from one of my SSS CKOM kits and used the Swiss Dots embossing folder by Cuttlebug.  I heat embossed the sentiment from the Purry Christmas stamp set with Hero Arts white embossing powder.  I love it because it is actually a nice crisp white.

Finally I coloured in the image with copics and you may not be able to see it well but I used stickler on the ribbon part of the gift box.

Thanks for stopping by and what for another card tomorrow!!

More Christmas cards

Hi Everyone!

I have two more Christmas cards for you.   I am also submitting these for the Paper Smooches DT call.  

The first one is one that you could reproduce quite easily as it's mostly stamping and one die cut.

I used the SSS Merry Christmas die and the November CKOM stamp set that came with the kit.

I used Momento due drop ink in red and galaxy gold.

The Merry Christmas was cut out of red card stock from Recollections.

My next card is done with a Paper Smooches free digi stamp (so cute!) This is for the PS Sparks challenge "STRIPES" 

 I printed it out on some card stock and use copics to colour it in.  I

I used white pigment in from CTMH to stamp the sentiment from SSS as well as my while gel pen to make the dash lines.

I also use the Copic glitter pen in clear  and gold to colour in the ribbon on the golf boxes.

Thanks for stopping by!

CASology card challenge. Week 68: BLACK

Hi everyone,

Today I did a card for the CASology challenge "Black"

I used the SSS "So stinkin' cute" stamp set and I heat embossed it in Hero Arts white embossing powder.  I dry embossed the card base with the Diving Swirls Cricut embossing folder.
(I apologize for the quality of the pictures. My daughter took the camera I normally use and I can now see the difference!)

This is just an extra card I thought I would do up.  It's Lawn Fawn "Critters in the forest" stamp set and the sentiment is from "Sunny Skies".  I used Recollections white card stock and Momento tuxedo black ink.

Thanks for stopping by!

CASE Study Challenge #163

Hi everyone,

I have a card for the CASE Study challenge #163.

This is my inspiration for my card.  

I used SSS Holiday envelope sentiments set and I stamped it the Tim Holtz distress Broken China ink.

I used SSS vellum and cut it out an 1/8 inch smaller and attached it with my TH tiny attacher.

I used the Merry Christmas die from the SSS Die & Stamps set Christmas Sentiment set  and then glued it to the vellum.  I then used my Spica clear glitter pen to cover it with sparkles!

Thanks for stopping by!

CASE Study Challenge #162 "Woodsy"

Hello everyone,

Today I did a card with a "woodsy" feel to it.  I used woodgrain card stock from a SSS card kit (I have a few kits that it came) along with pattern paper, vellum and leaf sequins from Lawn Fawn (which came in the Oct CKOM from SSS)

The stamp set is from the SSS October card kit as well and the YOU is from Kelly Perky that came in one of the kits.

Thanks for stopping by.

Lawnscaping Challenge 67 - Pattern Plan

Hi everyone,

Today I am joining the Pattern Play challenge over on the Lawnscaping Challenge Blog.

Here is the card I made for this challenge.

I used the "our friendship grows" stamp set and stamped it out on some CTMH pattern paper for the sunflower, leaves and flower pot.   I used Recollections paper and the blue paper is Bassill (sorry, I don't have the name) this came in one of my CKOM from Simon Says Stamp.

Thanks for stopping by!

Gratitude card

Hi there!

I thought I would experiment with my printer and Silhouette.  Laura Bassen did this with a stamp set and feather die from Kelly Perky.  

Since I didn't have the dies and stamps I improvised.  Instead I did up a few words in the Silhouette Designer Edition and printed it on white cards stock twice and on the second one I put the feather (Design ID #34665) over it and that was the only thing that cut out.  I inked up the edges with Tim Holtz distress ink around both and popped them both on on foam squares.

Thanks for stopping by!
