You're So Sweet Card | Studio Katia

Hey Everyone!

Today I have a fun and bright card to share with you. I wanted to take a break from all the Christmas cards I've been making lately and create something rainbowy :)

I began by stamping out the sweet pea images from the You're So Sweet set onto watercolor paper and colored them in with Tombow dual brush markers. I then die cut each of the flowers with the coordinating dies.

Next, I die cut the background using the Halftone Dots Cover Die and inserted the stems through the holes in somewhat of a rainbow color order using foam tape to pop up some of the flowers. I then adhered the background to a white card base. 

For the sentiment, I die cut the friend word die from the Spring Bouquet Die set from a piece of white cardstock and a piece of black cardstock and glued them together to create a shadow effect. I then stamped out you're so sweet on the banner from the Best Ever Dies and trimmed off one of the ends.

To embellish the card I used Liquid Pixie Dust to paint on some shimmer onto the flower petals and then glued on a variety of Studio Katia Crystals to some of the openings of the background. See links below for a list of all the crystals I used.

I hope this bright and cheerful card inspired you today. I love how this card turned out and hope you did too!

Thank you for stopping by 😊

Until next time... Happy Crafting 👋

Liquid Pixie Dust on Poinsettia Blessings Card | Ink On 3

Hello! 

I'm not sure about you all but this month is just flying by in a few weeks Christmas will be here!

Today I'm popping in to share this simple Christmas Poinsettia Blessings card I made using a few of Ink On 3's goodies. 

I really wanted to showcase the new Liquid Pixie Dust because it is awesome especially if you like to add shimmer to your cards. It is so hard to capture it on camera but I added it to the poinsettias on the card. So much sparklier in person! 

For this card, I stamped on a sheet of vellum using Juicy Ink the Poinsettia set and then heat set it using Chrome embossing powder. I then colored the images in using Copic markers. If I were to do this card over I would have colored the poinsettias on the other side of the vellum and just added the Liquid Pixie Dust to the top as the alcohol markers do color the embossing if you are really careful to stay in the lines, which I obviously wasn't. I then added the little banner to the top using a few sentiments from the Blessings set.

I hope you were inspired by this simple Christmas card today. For more information on the Liquid Pixie Dust stop by Ink On 3. They are having a hard time keeping this stuff in stock!   

Thank you for stopping by 😊

Until next time... Happy Crafting 👋
