I'm Nuts About You Fall Scene Card | Honey Bee Stamps

Happy Monday Crafty Friends, and to my Canadian ones, Happy Thanksgiving!

I'm totally nuts about today's card. The NUTS ABOUT YOU set is in my top 3 sets from the latest AUTUMN AFTERNOON Release. The squirrel images are so cute that I could wait to play with them again.

CARD DETAILS

To begin, I stamped out the images using BLACKOUT INK onto Neenah paper, this ink dries quickly and is perfect for Copic coloring. After the images were colored, I used the coordinating NUTS ABOUT YOU DIES to die cut them. All the stamps used come from the NUTS ABOUT YOU set. 

The next thing I did was to use mask a piece of Bristol paper using the largest CIRCLE SPOTLIGHT STENCIL. I then used MUSTARD SEED, PICKED RASPBERRY, WILTED VIOLET, and BLUEPRINT SKETCH DISTRESS OXIDE inks to blend out the sunset sky for the scene using the BACKGROUND BLENDER BRUSHES. 

Next, I die cut the panel using the largest DOUBLE STITCHED SQUARE DIES. To add the curved sentiment on the top, I placed the card panel in the MISTI and used the same CIRCLE SPOTLIGHT STENCIL to position the sentiment in the correct curved position, picking up the stamp with the Misti door, removing the stencil and stamping it directly in the right spot.

I then die cut the BRANCH AND LEAVES DIES. For the branch, I used a dark brown cardstock scrap, the leaves I die cut using white paper that I then used Copic markers to create some Fall leaf blends. 

Now, all that is left to do is assemble the card with all the pieces. First I glued the Branch in place and then I added the leaves in place using foam tape. Next, I positioned the Squirrels on the Branch and also popped them up with foam tape. I then finished it off by gluing the hearts, leaves, and acorn.

As final finishing touches, I added GLOSSY ACCENTS and white gel pen details. 

And there you have it, the cutest Nuts About You Fall Scene Card. This cutie would make a great Valentine's, Anniversary or just an I love you card to someone you love. 

Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting!

Thanksgiving Inspiration Cards | Studio Katia

Happy Wednesday Friends!

I am back today with a few Thanksgiving Inspiration Cards for Studio Katia. Even though 2020 has been such a terrible year for all of us around the world, there is still so much to be thankful for. 

CARD DETAILS

I began these cards by stamping out the images from the AUTUMN BORDERS stamp set (which by the way is currently on sale if you are interested). I used VersaFine Onyx Ink and then heat set it with a clear embossing powder so that I could do some really easy water coloring using Karin Brushmarkers. 

Once the images where dry I die cut them out using the coordinating AUTUMN BORDERS DIES. Under each die-cut, I left enough room to add a sentiment from the AUTUMN BORDERS set and then trimmed excess paper underneath.

I then popped up the strips using foam tape and attached them to these beautiful backgrounds and finished them off by adding some pearls. On this card, I used the AMETHYST PEARLS.

To create these beautiful backgrounds, I used the MINI ARCS STENCIL, and I created my own gold paste (because I didn't have any) by mixing Platinum Embellishment Mousse with a little bit of Solar Flare Shimmer Powder. 

Doesn't the pattern remind you of acorn tops? Such a pretty design and I just love the texture this paste created.

To finish off this card I added WINE BERRY PEARLS.  Love how these cards turned out!

I hope these Thanksgiving cards inspired you today. Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting!

You're So FabOOlous Halloween Light Up/Wobbles Card | Ink On 3/Pear Blossom Press Collab

Hello Friends and Happy Saturday!

I hope you can join me over on Instagram for a fun IG Hop. Just in case you can't though, I still wanted to share this cute Interactive Halloween card here with you today featuring products from Inkon3 and Pear Blossom Press.

CARD DETAILS

This cute card wobbles and lights up. I began this card by stamping out the cute ghost images from the PUMPKIN FRIENDS set (which at the moment is sold out, sorry) using BLACKOUT INK. I then colored it in with a few Copic markers and fussy cut the images.

To create the background I used Atelier Inks, (see colors used below in the thumbnails) as well as the WAVY STENCIL. I then punched a few holes for the wire of the EZ-Lights to fit through. I also punched out the eyes of the larger ghost and attached one light behind each eye using tape to secure it in place. Behind the ghost, I also added an Action Wobbles Spring, then pull the excess wiring behind the panel. 

To make the ghost's eyes look cute and not scary, I first drew in some lashes and then added a couple of black sparkly transparent crystals.

Next, I stamped out the You're so sentiment from BAD AND BOUJEE onto my card panel before going any further. (forgot to stamp it prior to wiring). I then stamped out the fabOOlous onto black cardstock using JUICY INK and heat embossed it with ARCTIC WHITE E. POWDER. The FabOOlous was created by combining two sets, 1. DOGWOOD FLOWER and 2. PHAT ALPHANUMERIC. Using a piercing tool I poked holes through the centers of the O's.

Behind the sentiment, I used the last EZ-Light and attached it between the two O's to add a glow in behind them. I then added foam to the strip and attached it to the card front.

Finally, I taped down the EZ-Light push button behind the sentiment strip, where the recipient will push down on. Taped the excess wires to the pack of the card panel, leaving room along with the edges to add foam around the border and attached it to the card base.

And there you have it, a Halloween Light Up/Wobbles Card. SO cool right!? 

I hope you can catch the Instagram hop, I will post a quick video of the card coming together. Plus, both companies will be giving away some great prizes.

Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting!
