Aloha Friendship Card | Studio Katia


Hello Friends, today I am on the Studio Katia Blog with this tropical vibes friendship card. I think it may be time to plan a nice warm vacation somewhere where these beautiful flowers grow๐Ÿ˜‰

CARD DETAILS

To begin I stamped out the Floral Cluster image from the ALOHA set using Copic safe ink and then colored in it using Copic markers. Sorry lost the color chart I used as I had colored in this image during Kathy Racoosin's Coloring Challenge. I then used the coordinating ALOHA dies to cut the image. 

The next thing I did was blend out the background using the UNDERWATER SUN RAYS stencil using Squeezed Lemonade and Picked Raspberry Oxide Inks. Then onto the background, I glued on the GRID COVER I had die cut using a yellow piece of cardstock.

Next, I stamped out the ALOHA sentiment onto black cardstock using white pigment ink and then heat set it with white embossing powder.

To finish, all I did was adhere the pieces onto the card front using foam tape. For a touch of sparkle, I added some MAJESTIC FUSION sequins and also added some glossy accents to flower stamens. And that is pretty much it for this card. I think this will make a great friendship card, you can also add a birthday greeting on the inside to make it a birthday card in the future.

Simple Easter Shaker Card Using Small Stamps to Create a Background | Ink On 3


Hello, my sweet friends ๐Ÿ‘‹ 

YAY! Finally, it actually feels like Spring has arrived here in our city of Edmonton.  All the snow is melting, there are water puddles everywhere and we have even enjoyed a few muddy bike rides! 

Now that Spring has arrived, Easter is just around the corner. So today I have a simple Easter Shaker card to share with you all and I even filmed the process video for you to watch. It's been so long that I really had to relearn the process of making, editing and just uploading it to YouTube all over again. I'm hoping I will be a little more regular with sharing videos so that I don't forget the process again.

So for those of you that would rather watch the process, this is for you and don't forget to →Subscribe for future inspiration!


CARD DETAILS

For this card today I began by die cutting the top panel to create the heart-shaped window and the Cross from the Blessing Coordinating Die set. I then took a bunch of Spring/Easter small stamps from a variety of Ink On 3 sets and stamped out using Blackout Ink to create the background on to the front of the card base and colored them in using Copic Markers. (All the Ink On 3 Sets I used will be listed below in the thumbnail links below).

Next, I glued the acetate to the back of the heart panel opening and added the foam tape along the heart to create the well for the shaker pieces and also added foam to the edges of the card.

On the card base, where the middle of the shaker window will be, I added a little pile of the butterfly glitter and then closed up the shaker by adhering the top panel to the card base.

To finish I stamped the Easter and Blessing on the card front pieces and glued the cross onto the heart. To the cross, I added some color by blending on some squeezed lemonade distress oxide ink. And that is pretty much it for this simple shaker card.

Honey Bee Spring Scene | Pop-Up Shadow Box Card | Honey Bee Stamps


Hello friends and Happy Monday!

Today I have a Spring-inspired Pop-Up Shadow Box Card mixing and matching a bunch of Honey Bee Stamp products that I am also sharing over on the Honey Bee Stamps Blog. If you are a Jennifer McGuire fan, you may have seen her share how to create these amazing pop-up cards on a recent tutorial of hers. So, of course, I was dying to try this card technique out!

CARD DETAILS

I began this card by cutting out the top and bottom panels at 6 1/4" x 5 1/2".  To create the pop-up mechanism you will need to score both panels, on each side at 1/2" and at the 1" mark. Then fold the pieces in to create a zig-zag fold on each side on the panels. 

To the top panel, I die cut a hexagon window. I also die cut the same window using the same hexagon die onto a piece of blue cardstock that I had previously die cut using the Scalloped Frame die.
To add another layer of dimension I used the next smaller Stacked Hexagon die to die cut another window to add beneath the card front. 

Now that all the pieces for the card were made I then set them aside to plan out the scene.

I began by creating a background for the card. On a piece of Bristol paper, I blended out some clouds using the Outdoor Scene Builder Stencils

Next, I stamped out all the images I was planning on using on to Neenah cardstock and colored them in using Copic Markers. I then die cut each image using their coordinating dies. 
Below is a list of the stamps and coordinating dies I used.

To the back piece of the card that I had initially scored, I glued down the background cloud piece. Next, I glued the hive down by popping it up with foam tape. I also added the floating bees by gluing them to thin strips of acetate and attaching them to the side flaps on the bottom panel. 

To the top piece, I began by gluing the top blue scalloped piece to the card front. I then attached the smaller hexagon panel to the inside of the card using foam tape. Before gluing down the colored images, I die cut a grass border piece colored it with Copics and glued it along the bottom of the hexagon to build the scene from. Once I was happy with the arrangement of the flowers I glued them in place. To finish the card, I added glue to the side zigzag tabs and adhered them together. 

The card when finished will measure 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ when flattened and will fit nicely into an envelope.

For sparkle, I added some Liquid Pixie Dust and a layer of glossy accents. The sentiment was created by stamping out the just from the Hi Honey stamp set and then I pieced together the Beecause from the Hi Honey Cuts set.
