Waffle Flower 2023 October Release Blog Hop and Giveaway

Hello Friends!

I am super excited to be joining Waffle Flower for this month's October Release! Today I have three cards to share and I hope you and hope you will enjoy them. Make sure to check out each stop in today’s blog hop for fun, inspiration, and chances to win some of these new goodies! Find all the hop details near the end of this post.

This first card features the Pop-Up Leaves Panel Die and the Coordinating Stencil. The stencil makes for the easiest ink blending of these Fall colors, and I love the subtle dimension you get from pinching the leaves together.

Using a different color behind the die-cut panel also adds more dimension to the card. To finish this simple Fall card I used the Script Thank You Die, done in Glitter Gold cardstock with the white shadow background.

Next, I have this fun Fall theme Postage Card featuring the newest additions to the collection. 

• Postage Collage for Fall Stamp Set
• Postage Collage for Fall Stencil
• Postage Collage Die (Not new)

On the Kraft background, I stamped in watermark ink, the new Multiple Fall Leaves Stamp Set. I also added a couple of die cuts from the new Dainty Fern Die set as an added detail.

For this last card, I used the Multiple Fall Leaves Stamp Set, which I heat embossed in gold, and then used the coordinating Multiple Fall Leaves Stencil to ink blend the warm colors. Once all the ink and added splatters were dry I die-cut the leaves with the Multiple Fall Leaves Die Set. This little trio is so versatile and a great value for the price point!

For the subtle background, I used the Woodgrain Die. This Die would also make a great window for a shaker card (next time). And to finish this beauty off I used the Print Thank You Die. 

Now onto the Blog Hop and Giveaway!

Be My Gnomie Shaker Card | Studio Katia | Blog Hop & Giveaway

 Hello Friends and welcome to the Studio Katia December Release Blog Hop and Giveaway. If you have started hopping you should have arrived from the Studio Katia blog and Galina will be your next Hop. The complete Blog Hop list can be found at the end of this post.

If you love LOVE and love gnomes and love pizza... well then this release is perfect for YOU! For my card today I combined a gnome with lots of rainbow hearts that I eventually turned into a shaker card.

This Release Includes: 

4 stamp sets (3 with coordinating dies) 

3 standalone dies 

1 stencil

And as you can see it's all about Valentine's Day 😍

CARD RECIPE

• Stamp out the gnome images from the Gnomies Stamp set using a Copic-friendly ink. Color the images in and die-cut them with coordinating dies.
• For the background, I started by ink-blending the hearts from the Hearts Duo Stencil using yellow ink, followed by pink ink, and then blue ink, each time overlapping the colors to create a rainbow blend.  Repeat the same process with the other stencil. 
• Next, die-cut the window for the shaker using the largest heart die from the new Simple Dotted Hearts. 
• Add the negative piece of the die-cut heart to the front of a card base. 
• With the background panel, create the window for the shaker by adding a piece of acetate to the back. Build a well around the perimeter of the heart using foam tape.
• Add the shaker bits (all linked below) to the center of the heart that you previously glued onto the card base.
• Remove the protective layer from the foam and press the layers together to create the shaker.
•  Add the colored gnome to the front panel using foam tape.
• Stamp out the sentiment onto black cardstock using white ink and heat set it with white embossing powder.
• Trim the sentiment banner and glue it to the card front.
• Finish by adding a few satin pearls.

I love how this Rainbow Shaker turned out and hope you do too. Now let's talk about the Giveaway!
