Christmas Caroling Forest Friends Card | Honey Bee Stamps

Do you know any Christmas Carolers? Well if you do this would make a great card for them! 

For this card, I combined the Gather Together friends with some of the Snow Buddies stamps to create this Christmas caroling winter scene.

I began this scene by stamping out the elements from the Snow Buddies stamp set first onto a piece of watercolor paper. I then created masks for the images to cover them up. I then lined up the large Gather Together stamp with the images I had stamped previously, making sure that everything was aligned properly then removed the masks.

Next, I used the Mijello Misson Gold watercolors to color in the entire image. Once dry, I added the falling snow using one of the stencils from the Winter Wonderland Background set and texture paste.

I then stamped out the sentiments from the Fa La La stamp set onto black cardstock and die cut the strip using the Banner Builder dies. I also die cut the falala word die various times from the Fa La La die set to create a 3 layer thick sentiment to use across the card.

As for finishing touches, I added clear Wink of Stella to some areas, glossy accents to all their little eyes and noses and along the bottom I also added Liquid Applique to create some snow mounds.

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 :)

You're So Sweet Card for Studio Katia by ilovedoingallthingscrafty.com

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.
