Paws for Kindness Blog Hop + Giveaway | Best Fur Friend Cards | Studio Katia

Happy World Kindness Day friends! To celebrate this day, Studio Katia has a special Blog prepared featuring an exclusive LOVE FOR PAWS stamp set and coordinating die bundle specifically designed to celebrate World Kindness Day.

Studio Katia will donate $10 from every sale of this special stamp bundle to Pets in the Classroom because we truly believe that all children should have the opportunity to learn about the responsibilities, respect for life and being kind to one another.

If you have already started the Hop you would have arrived from the Studio Katia Blog. If you are just getting started I will have the complete list at the end of this post.

CARD DETAILS

For both my cards today I started off by creating the backgrounds using the Stencils. For this first girly one, I began by blending Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Ink (OI) using Studio Katia INK BLENDER BRUSHES  and then adding a deeper red to the single hearts on the panel using Barn Door OI.

Next, I die cut the panel using both the DARLING RIBBON AND FRAMES DIES to cut out the frame and then the SHAKER HEART die to cut out the window for the shaker. I then glued a piece of ACETATE to the back of the panel.

On a scrap piece of red cardstock, I stamped the Best Friends sentiment. I then added some MAJESTIC FUSION sequins to the center of the stamped greeting area and then closed up the shaker and attached it to an A2 card base. I finished the front by adding the cutest image from LOVE FOR PAWS stamp that I had die cut with the coordinating dies. The images were colored using Copic markers.

This next card, my boy version, was done using the exact same process as the previous card only this time created a horizontal card, I used Tumbled Glass, Salty Ocean, and Faded Jeans Distress OI and used the MINI PAWS STENCIL.

Again this cute little guy was stamped out from the LOVE FOR PAWS stamp and then die cut with the coordinating dies and colored using Copic Markers. The sentiments inside the shaker heart also come from the same set.

This time I filled the shaker area using, a mix of SPARKLING SEA CONFETTI MIX, LIGHT BLUE STARS, CRYSTAL STARS.
