Christmas Tree Shaker Card | Honey Bee Stamps

Christmas Tree, Shaker Card,Honey Bee Stamps,Frameless Shaker Card,how to,handmade card,Stamps,ilovedoingallthingscrafty,stamping, diecutting,cardmaking

Hello friends! 

At this moment, I am vacationing in Europe... but lucky for you I have pre-scheduled a few posts just in case you were missing me!

I couldn't let July go by without sharing a delightful Christmas in July card because it's never too early to start spreading holiday cheer! Today's creation showcases some fabulous new products from the Adventure Awaits Release, combined with timeless festive elements.

CARD RECIPE

Here's the step-by-step guide to re-create this beautiful card:


1. Begin by creating a shaker pocket using plastic from a cello bag or similar and a beautiful pattern paper from the brand-new Adventure Awaits Paper Pad. Fill the shaker with the enchanting Blizzard Confetti Mix.

2. Next I added some foam dots to the Oval die cut and attached it to the front of the card.

3. The layered tree comes from the Lovely Layers Trees set. To make it look more Christmasy, I added a top white layer, and then to it, I added some Liquid Applique and heat set it to make snow-like clumps. For a touch of sparkle, I then added glue and sprinkled on Prisma Glitter.

4. To finish the tree, I added the sentiment. The joy comes from the Bitty Buzzwords: Holidays Dies and the rest of the sentiment comes from the Bitty Buzzwords: Holidays stamp set. The strip was then die-cut using one of the banners from the Mini Messages Dies.

5. For a pop of color I used the red gems from the Make it Merry Sticker set.

6. Finally, I finished the front panel with a few large snowflakes and also added Crystal Glimmer Enamel Stickers to their centers.

7. To the inside, I stamped out the sentiment also from the Bitty Buzzwords: Holidays stamp set using Intense Black Ink.

May this Christmas in July card inspire you to get an early start on your Christmas cardmaking or at least see how you can incorporate non-holiday products into your Holiday cards.

Celebrating Pride: Trio of Joyful Cards for Special Occasions | Honey Bee Stamps

Pride,Trio of Joyful Cards, Special Occasions, Honey Bee Stamps,how to,handmade card,Stamps,ilovedoingallthingscrafty,stamping, diecutting,cardmaking,Karin Brush Marker Pro, birthday, anniversary, baby

Just imagine if the rings of a tree were actually rainbow-colored, how beautiful and colorful this world would be! Then again, trees would be even more endangered than they already are because we would all be chopping them down😆

Inclusive celebrations are always worth cherishing, and what better way to express your love and support than through heartfelt cards? Today I bring you a delightful trio of pride-inspired cards to commemorate a birthday, anniversary, and the arrival of a precious little one. These cards not only celebrate milestones but also promote a message of inclusivity, love, and acceptance.

CARD RECIPE


I will explain how I made one of these cards as the rest were done similarly. 

Using the Lovely Layers Slice and Stump Die, cut out your tree rounds. For a touch of pride, color the tree rings with vibrant rainbow hues using KARIN BRUSHMARKER PRO markers. To make the rings pop even more I used a distress brayer and rolled black ink over each die and then carefully placed the painted stumps back into their mold to press the black line impressions back into the stumps. This adds depth and dimension to them. I then glued them to a black bark layer. The leaves I used come from the  Lovely Layers: Dogwood Dies adding a cheerful element to the card.

To complete this card I added a sentiment from the Inside Snarky Birthday Sentiment Stamp set stamped and heat embossed in white, then die cut with the coordinating die. This whimsical heart comes from the Heart Hug Die set, topped with a sparkly gem from the Aurora Borealis Gem Stickers. The background for each of these cards, (although it is difficult to see from these pictures) is full of texture that comes from using the Woodgrain 3D embossing folder.

For the Anniversary card of the Trio, I used two of the stumps and made them look like a little couple. This time my sentiment for the card came from the Mini Messages Stamps and Dies.

For comparison, I initially tried outlining the rings with a fine-tip black pen which was a bit time-consuming but the results are definitely darker. But using the brayer was super easy especially when making multiples.

This final card is for a family, welcoming their little one. Here again, the sentiment comes from the Mini Messages Stamps and Dies.

Even though these are just colorful stumps, I think turned out to be so sweet.

Happy Bee-Day Action Wobbles Card | Studio Katia

Happy Bee-Day, Action Wobbles Card,Studio Katia,how to,handmade card,Stamps,ilovedoingallthingscrafty,stamping, diecutting,cardmaking, daisy bunch,Honey Bees,


Greetings, dear friends!

I am thrilled to be back today, eager to share with you this delightful birthday card adorned with timeless Studio Katia treasures. It's truly the perfect card for celebrating a Spring or Summer birthday!

CARD RECIPE
 Let me guide you through the steps of creating this charming masterpiece:
  1. Begin by stamping the pretty daisies onto watercolor paper using Versafine ink. Take care to heat set each bunch before proceeding to stamp the remaining elements. To create a captivating focal point, skillfully mask the middle daisy by die-cutting the coordinating die and then proceed to stamp the sides.

  2. Bring the background to life by infusing it with vibrant colors. I opted for the efficiency of Karin Brush Pro markers, allowing for quick and beautiful watercoloring.

  3. Next, die-cut the background using the Scallops Heart Cover.

  4. Stamp the sentiments from the Honey Bees Set using white ink, and heat set them. Using the Scallops Heart Cover once more to meticulously die-cut the edges of the sentiment strip, gluing it onto the background.

  5. For a delightful touch of sparkle, apply glue to the centers of the flowers, followed by a generous sprinkling of Chunky Glitter.

  6. Elevate the card panel by affixing it to the card base with the help of foam tape, giving it dimension and depth.

  7. For an adorable bee, stamp one from the Honey Bees Set, heat-setting it, and coloring it. Bring this tiny marvel to life by expertly die-cutting it using the coordinating die.

  8. Attach a mini action wobbler to the back of the bee and secure it to the card. Witness how this daring little bee springs into action, breathing life and interactivity into your creation.

Isn't this little bee simply irresistible? The addition of the action wobbler elevates this card to a whole new level, delighting the recipient with its playful charm.
