Sweet Smooch Valentine's Day Slimline Card | Honey Bee Stamps Day 4 Love Letters Sneak Peek

Happy 2021 Friends, and welcome to Day 4 Sneak Peeks for Honey Bee Stamps Love Letters Release. Make sure you stop by the Honey Bee Stamps Blog for more inspiration from the Design Team featuring more day 4 product reveals!

Today's Sweet Smooch Valentine's Day Slimline Card features the new S.W.A.K. Stamp and DIE Sets, the SMOOCH Stamp and DIE set and the SLIMLINE SENTIMENT STITCHED Dies.

CARD DETAILS

The first thing I did was stamp all the gold S.W.A.K. lips onto a piece of white cardstock using watermark ink and then heat set it with gold embossing powder. I then used the new slimline frame from the SLIMLINE SENTIMENT STITCHED to die cut the panel. I then glued it onto a piece of black cardstock that I cut to 9x4 inches that was then eventually glued onto the same size card base.

The next thing I did was to die cut the SMOOCH DIES and piece the layers together. I stacked and glued 3 white layers for more dimension. 

To complete the sentiment I also stamped out sentiments from the SMOOCH stamp set onto banners and used the scripted word dies from the SLIMLINE SENTIMENT STITCHED dies. To the scripted dies I die cut two black layers and topped it off with a red layer. I then added clear embossing powder to give them a glossy finish. The heart that I used to dot the "i" comes from the FOREST FRIENDS Dies, that I had from a previous project.

To finish off this sexy card, I just had to add a pair of red lips using the S.W.A.K. stamp and DIE. The lips were stamped out using CANDIED APPLE Oxide Ink then heat set with a clear embossing powder.

I love how this card turned out, and hope you did too👄. Thank you for stopping by, and I will be back tomorrow with day 5 Sneak Peeks!

A Sparkly and Bright Merry Christmas Slimline Card | Studio Katia

Happy Monday Friends.

How fun would it be if the snow was all the colors of the rainbow? What a magical place it would be. A rainbow lover's dream for sure!

Anywho, let's get on with how this pretty Sparkly card came together. 

CARD DETAILS

To begin, I die cut the background panel using the larger frame from the DOTTED SLIMLINE - SET 1. I then used the INK BLENDER BRUSHES to blend out the rainbow colors using the CONFETTI STENCIL and Distress Oxide Inks. It's difficult to see from the pictures but I also stamped out a large SNOWFLAKE on the panel that I heat embossed in white.

The cute snowman comes from the HAPPY SNOWMEN that was colored using Copics and then die cut with the coordinating HAPPY SNOWMEN DIES. The Trees in the scene come from the WINTER KOBI set that I also colored with Copics and die cut with the coordinating WINTER KOBI DIES.

To create the sparkly hills, I used the TRIMMINGS BORDERS CREATIVE DIES and just extended the wave by lining up the end of the cut with the die again to fit the slimline format. I then die cut the hill piece with the DOTTED SLIMLINE - SET 1 to create the same finished edge along the bottom of the panel. To add the sparkly detail, I used an old paintbrush and loaded it with STUDIO KATIA GLUE and then painted the hills with it. I then poured the CHUNKY SPARKLE GLITTER over the wet glue and pressed it in place with a piece of scrap paper. Once it was dry I glued it onto the background panel.

For the sentiment, I stamped the Merry from the POINSETTIA BORDER on the top right-hand side of the panel and then stamped the Christmas in white onto black cardstock. I then used a small banner die from the PEONY TRIMMINGS DIES to layer on to the Merry.

For a finishing touch of more sparkle, I added some IRIDESCENT STARS to the rainbow sky.

I hope this Sparkly and Bright Christmas Card inspired you today. Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting!
