Hello and Happy Sunday Friends! Today is Day 3 Sneak Peeks for Honey Bee Stamps Autumn Afternoon Release. Make sure you stop by the Honey Bee Stamps Blog for more inspiration from the Design Team featuring more Day 3 product reveals!

My card today features the new AUTUMN STAMPS and coordinating word DIES, I also used one of the layers of the LOVELY LAYERS MAPLE LEAF DIES. For the background, I used a variety of alcohol inks on Yupo paper that I then cut into squares and popped up with foam tape. Love this super simple design.

CAS Snowflake Stencil Cards | Studio Katia

Well hello, friends!

Today I am back with a couple of Christmas cards inspired by the new Snowflake Stencils from Studio Katia.

CARD DETAILS

To begin I started by adding Glimmer paste to both panels. For this first card, I used the SNOWFLAKE STENCIL and applied Moonstone Glimmer paste and set it off to dry. Once it was dry I used the frame from the LOOPS: CREATIVE DIE to cut out the card front for what would become the shaker window. Next, I used the ELEGANT SCALLOP OVAL to die cut the opening for the shaker. To the back of the panel, I glued on a piece of ACETATE that I trimmed to cover the opening. 

I then used the window as a guide to figure out where to add the sentiment. I then stamped the sentiment from the GIFT TAG GREETINGS:WINTER directly onto the front of the card base and heat embossed it using silver embossing powder. I also added the same embossing to the little bow that I would later embellish the top of the oval frame with.

Next, I added a little pile of the FROST GLITTER and the ICY SPARKLE CRYSTALS directly over the sentiment and then popped on the front shaker panel that I had added FOAM tape too. To finish this card I then glued on the thin dotted frame and glued some more crystals to the card front.

This next card was done the exact same way as the previous card only this time I simplified it even more by not creating a shaker. Also, for this card, I used the FLORAL SNOWFLAKE STENCIL and applied Silver Gem Paste.

Again here I used the frame from the LOOPS: CREATIVE DIE to cut out the panel as well as the same sentiment from the GIFT TAG GREETINGS: WINTER this time stamped onto black cardstock and embossed in white.

To finish up the card I popped foam onto the back of the panel and glued it and the frame to the card base and then embellished the front with SILVER FOIL PEARLS.

I hope these Clean and Simple Christmas Snowflake Stencil Cards inspire you today. For more inspiration using these products visit the Studio Katia Blog.

Thank you for stopping by 😊

Until next time... Happy Crafting 👋

CAS Happy Holidays Card | Studio Katia

Well hello, again friends!

Today I have the perfect card to mass-produce for the Holidays! It was one of those cards that came together so easily and so quickly that I have to share with you my process.

CARD DETAILS

To start I die cut a piece of green and red cardstock out using the HALF STRIPED COVER. I then flipped over the die-cut green layer and glued it to the red layer. Because you will be seeing the underside of the die-cut piece, make sure your cutting plates are new or smooth, or you can use a piece of cardstock underneath to avoid the transfer of impressions onto the paper.

I then glued the panel onto the card base.

Next, I stamped out the Happy Holidays stamp from the GIFT TAG GREETINGS:WINTER onto black cardstock and then white heat embossed the letters, trimmed the piece out and then added to the center of the card front.

To finish off the card and to make it look like a present, I added the die-cut bow from the ELEGANT SCALLOP OVAL die set and glued an ICY SPARKLE CRYSTAL to the bow.

Thank you for stopping by, hope you enjoyed this quick and easy tutorial.

Until next time... Happy Crafting 👋

I Heart Coffee | Spring and Summer Coffee Lover's Blog Hop | Studio Katia

Hello and welcome to Spring and Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop! 

Are you a coffee lover? Well, I am but I do have a love/hate relationship with it. If I could I would drink more of it, but sadly I have to limit my intake as I'm too sensitive to caffeine and become an insomniac. So one cup early in the day is all I can handle. Sometimes if I want more, I will drink a decaffeinated coffee, but it's just not the same LOL!

So today I'm joining the Studio Katia DT as Studio Katia is a Sponsor of the Coffee Lovers Hop and will be giving away $50 Gift Certificate to the Studio Katia Store. So make sure you join in on the fun as there are many companies participating and lots of great goodies to be given away!

CARD DETAILS

For my card today, I knew I wanted to use the SHAKER HEART so I began by die cutting 5 of these hearts out of red cardstock. This SHAKER HEART die is so awesome as it cuts out 3 different hearts using this one die (I kept all the other die-cuts for future use).  I then glued and stacked all of the center hearts together and glued it on to one of the bottom layers from which I kept the negative pieces.  And, that was pretty much all I did for the heart.  

I then had the idea to use the heart as the "love" symbol for my card so I could create an I 💗(heart) Coffee card. The coffee cup I used comes from the SWEET LATTE and coordinating DIES sets, which I colored in Copic markers and added the I to it (just in case the coffee cup itself wasn't self-explanatory). To the SCRIPT COFFEE DIE, I stacked 3 layers and added Glossy Accents to the top. And, to embellish the card front I used a few ONYX CRYSTALS.

It's difficult to see from my photos the gorgeous texture on the card. I used the SQUARE BRICK Stencil to do some dry embossing to the card panel. Before I added the embossing, I die-cut the panel out first to add the dotted stitching to the border using the large frame from the DARLING RIBBON and FRAMES DIES.

I left the inside of the card blank for now, but I think it would be a great card to send as a thank you card for a coffee lover and maybe include a gift card to their favorite coffee shop. I hope this card has inspired you today or made you thirsty for that next cup of Java. 

Thanks a LATTE for stopping by (sorry can't help but make a punny 😂)

Until next time... Happy Hopping👋
