Hello Sunshine Stitched Friendship Card | Studio Katia

Hello and Happy Friday my Friends!

Today's card was inspired by the weather and the gorgeous sunny days we have had recently. Plus since traveling is out of the question at least I can daydream about being in the tropics somewhere.

CARD DETAILS

To begin, I started by die cutting the background using the MINI POLKA DOTS COVER DIE and then just stitched this star-like pattern on to it. I thought this was a great way to stretch out the use of this cover die.

Next, I stamped out and die cut the stamps from the ALOHA set and colored them in using Copic markers.

I then arranged the flowers and popped up using foam tape on to the stitched background that I had glued on top of the card base.

I then added the sentiments on the card to complete the design. The script hello comes from the YOU'RE SO RANUNCULUS DIES that I stacked and glued together and the sunshine comes from the ALOHA stamp set that I stamped onto a banner from the BEST EVER DIES set.

To finish off the card I added some PRISMATIC SKY PEARLS to the background and added some shine by painting the flowers using LIQUID PIXIE DUST and also adding glossy accents.

I hope this Hello Sunshine Stitched Friendship Card inspired you today. Thank you all so much for stopping by!

Until next time... Happy Crafting 👋

Spring Inspired Rainbow Cards | Spellbinders April 2020 Glimmer Hot Foil Kit of the Month

Hello sweet friends, hope you all are well! I trust that if you are a crafter you probably haven't left the craft room 😅

Today I have a few Spring inspired rainbow cards to share with you featuring the Spellbinders April 2020 Glimmer Hot Foil Kit of the Month. The kit includes Celebrate the Day and the Special Months Glimmer Foil Set which coordinate perfectly with the Truckin Through the Seasons Die if you already have that. I did not, so I got creative with my designs.

CARD DETAILS

This first card was super simple to make. I began by foiling the "hello" from the Hello Dear Friend Glimmer Hot Foil Plate and Die Set followed by the "APRIL" from the Special Months Set onto a piece of purple cardstock.

I used the Speckled Prism Glimmer Hot Foil Roll to foil onto the paper using the HOT FOIL SYSTEM. I then glued strips of colored cardstock to create a rainbow gradient on the left side of the card. And finished it off by adding some iridescent bubbles. I think this card would be great for a friend named April or even as a friendship card to give out this month.

For the second card, I created a foiled background by using the Fall Flora Dies from a previous Large Die of the Month Club kit. I love how you can use any metal dies to create designs using foil! I then blended out a rainbow gradient of color using Atelier Inks.

For the sentiment again I used the Speckled Prism Glimmer Hot Foil Roll to foil onto black cardstock using a plate from the Celebrate the Day set. I then mounted that sentiment strip onto a piece that I completely covered with the foil to create a border around the sentiment.

To embellish, I added some clear confetti and a tiny sparkle to the center of the flowers using a gel pen.

I hope you got some inspiration from these Spring inspired rainbow cards. If you are interested in signing up for the monthly Glimmer Hot Foil Kit of the Month click HERE for all the details.

Queen Bee Birthday Shaker Card | Studio Katia

Do you know any Queen Bees?

I know a few little Queens that qualify for the title and a card like this. I had so much fun creating this cute shaker card featuring a bunch of goodies from the Studio Katia January Release.

  CARD DETAILS

I began by creating the front panel for the shaker. To do that I die cut the SCALLOP HONEYCOMB COVER and then glued a piece of ACETATE to the back and then added the foam tape to the perimeter of the panel.

To fill the inside of the shaker, I added GOLD FEVER CONFETTI, GOLD FEVER GLITTER, and SPARKLING HEARTS CONFETTI GLITTER. I then closed up the shaker panel with a piece of yellow card stock. I then glued the panel to a piece of black cardstock that I had glued to a top folding A2 card base.

Next, I stamped out and colored the HONEY BEES using Copic markers and then used the coordinating  HONEY BEES DIES cut each piece out and then glued them onto the shaker hive front.

To finish off the card front I stamped out the sentiment and heat embossed it in white and then used the PEONY TRIMMINGS + BANNER DIES to die cut the banner.

And here is how I finished off the inside of this darling card.

Happy Bee-day to all the Queen Bees out there, and if it isn't quite your birthday I hope you were inspired to make a similar Queen Bee Birthday Shaker Card for yourself or for other Queens in your life!

Thank you for stopping by 😊

Until next time... Happy Crafting 👋
